How we compare mattresses

Mattress Rank puts 27 mattresses from 9 Australian brands side by side, using what each brand publishes about its own mattresses. We don't test mattresses in a lab or sleep on them for you: we collect the facts that matter when you buy online and show them in one format, for your bed size.

Which mattresses are included

Mattress-in-a-box brands that sell online in Australia and publish their prices: Ecosa, Emma, Ergoflex, Eva, Koala, Macoda, Newentor, Origin, Sleeping Duck. We add brands and models over time.

Where the data comes from

Firmness

Brands describe firmness in different words, so we put every mattress on the same six-step scale, from soft to extra firm. The main firmness is how the mattress feels when it arrives. Some can be made softer or firmer, by flipping it, swapping a layer or choosing at checkout; the scale shows those options as a second marker.

Our scaleWhat the brand says
SoftPlush, soft
Medium-softMedium-plush, medium-soft
MediumMedium, or a mattress you pick the feel of
Medium-firmMedium-firm, or 6–7 out of 10
FirmFirm
Extra firmExtra firm, very firm

When a brand's wording doesn't fit cleanly, we check it by hand and keep the brand's exact words on the mattress page.

Prices and photos change with the bed size you pick. These are the standard Australian sizes; brands can differ by a few centimetres.

How results are ordered

The list is sorted by what you choose: price for your bed size (the default), longest trial or longest warranty. Some brands pay us a commission when you buy through our links. That never changes the order or what we show. See our affiliate disclosure.
