Avoid at all cost – I purchased this terrible mattress. My fault for choosing it. It sunk almost straight away. I complained and they said that I had to pay for them to fix it. After arguing for quite some time I gave in and accepted to pay $600 even thought the mattress was no good. They took it away to be re sprung. It was returned and they had done absolutely… Read more
nothing to it. It was exactly the same. They ripped me off twice. Bad mattress, bad service bad lying. Don't trust them
Feeling ripped off – For a $5000 mattress it has sagging and is near impossible to sleep without rolling into the middle, you wake up stiff from fighting to stay on your side of the bed. I wouldn’t suggest for anyone to buy one no matter how it feels from new because it changes quite quickly for an expensive mattress.. I lost my receipt at some point and it’s… Read more
regardless as I have read about how bad it is to claim warranty I will just be going to buy a new mattress. Honestly absolutely rubbish
Segged within 12 months – Good when we first bought it in 2019 for $3880 from Forty Wicks Nunawading in Melbourne. Came with a 10-year warranty Australian made. After 10-12 months the mattress started sagging in the middle, and the sagging got worst and worst that I developed lower back problems my partner also set an upper back problem—reported to Forty Wicks no support… Read more
at all. We put up with the discomfort for all most four years in the end we bought another Queen size mattress (a standard mattress) from Gainsville in Melbourne for $2150 and feels very comfortable.

Best vacation sleep ever! – We are on vacation and stripped the bed to find the brand. I do not feel my husband move and the mattress does not tilt toward him. Firm but soft. Supportive but no pressure points. This mattress is several years old and has no sags. We WILL abut one when we get home. Show details
Great bed! – My husband and I purchased this bed at snooze before it was discontinued, and I love it, we both love it! As a new mother I cannot stress enough how amazing this bed is, it helps with every pain in my body and just eases them. This bed is honestly the best thing. Show details
This is perfect! I love my bed – I was lying on this bed at a hotel, it was the best bed I ha ever slept on, so I asked management and found out that all their beds were MySide. I haven't had a bad nights sleep since then! It really is a very very very good mattress. I tried lots of mattresses, like sleepingduck and other bed in box but nothing compares to this.

Negative reviews
Only because there is no zero star option - atrocious! – Comfort? zero - saggy and soft Support? non existent - like sleeping in two hammocks Was expecting a lifetime mattress based on the price we paid...it hardly lasted 6 months before the sagging started. Was never happy with it. The store referred us on to head office. Head office wanted dozens of sheets of paperwork filled out before sending… Read more
someone out to inspect. Made the process very difficult. This would all be ok if the company acknowledged it...which they did to some degree....but when I requested a red/red configuration upon warranty repair (firmest setup) as advised to do by the rep and the delivery pick up guys, head office wanted to charge over $1,000 to do it. Will def NEVER be buying from these guys again.
Stay away, worst mattress around – Bought this mattress 5 years ago from Snooze (red/blue zones). After 3ish years the mattress started sagging and now there big divvets on each side. If your not in the divvet then you'll roll back in. You can also feel the other person in bed flopping around which was advertised wouldn't happen. I would never buy this again or recommend it to anyone, especially for the exorbitant price... Show details
Sagged within 5 years – I bought this mattress at big discount from snooze, because I had very bad back and neck pain. I was very happy until it started sagging where my top body lies. Now it’s a big deep hole which u try to sleep out of but keep on rolling in. I am back to where I started with my pain. Snooze franchise was helpful but it had to go through… Read more
manufacturers,Tried to go for warranty but as I didn’t have mattress protector on it and they don’t want any marks on it, it void the warranty.I wasn’t helped by the manufacturing company. After reading these reviews obviously even mattress protectors doesn’t help much.

Was amazing when we first bought it. 4 years later sags on each side where you sleep – This was a great mattress when we first bought it and paid handsomely for it. After 4 years of sleeping on it, it started to sag badly on each side which resulted in terrible sleeps and waking up sore in the mornings. To their credit Kingsdown Customer Care have been great. They have already take the mattress back once and replace the pillow top… Read more
but it did not resolve the issue. We are now in the process of reaching out once more to them to ask for a refund so we can fix this problem once and for all. So 5 stars for the support but 1 star for the mattress. Really disappointed.
Update: 15 months on from reaching out about the replacement with Kingsdown the mattress has really worsened and we haven't received a response. Same problems as the original. Emailed them again today.
Update: Now under new ownership and support is being extremely troublesome and are so far refusing to refund.
Stay away from this mattress – We purchased this mattress from fourtywinks 3 years ago since then we have had nothing but issues with the mattress sagging out of shape and stitching opening up. We have contacted fourtywinks and they said the company had gone in to receivership. So we contacted today tonight channel 7 . When covid is over they are coming out to take photos and taking on our case we paid over $6,000 Show details
Great for 5 years only – Purchased 8 years ago. It was great for 5 years, then the deep body impressions made it impossible to sleep anywhere but the impression, as you would roll back into the "hole". After alot of photos and hoop jumping, they agreed to replace the mattress. The new one, which we have had for 18months is going to the tip. The new one is like sleeping on… Read more
a rock and has deep body impressions after 12 months. I am 60kg and husband 80kg. I will never buy another- biggest waste of money and disappointment.
Bought a red green zone mattress only for it to fail within 6 mths. Replaced however 2 years later it is buggered – It is not worth the $4500 we would have been better off buying a normal mattress. The company tried any thing they could to try and avoid replacing the first mattress Show details

Great at first then !!!! – Make a mattress that actually lives up to what you say. Started off great but after only 4 and 1/2 years ours is off to the tip. Two deep holes where we lay despite turning it as recommended. Gives no relief for my bad back, makes it worse. Excruciating hip pain which meant I had to sleep on a sheepskin to get relief. Complete waste of thousands of dollars. Rang the company, they hung up, says it all. Show details
THANK YOU! – Oh my!!! This bed has saved my back!! Thank you so so much MySide, I tried so hard to find a good mattress for my back and I finally found it! I love this bed sooo much! Show details · 1
Good zzzzz – I was skeptical to buy because of the reviews however when I layed on it in store I just was drawn to it! So I took a chance and bought it. It was the best thing I ever did! I haven't had a better nights sleep in my life. It is well worth the money Show details · 1
Cannot miss this bed! – I love it! I have had no back pain since purchasing this! Their customer support was great to work with when I needed some questions. But this bed!!! IT IS AMAZING! so comfy Show details · 1
Love it! – This mattress is very good! I found it after sleeping on it at a holiday rental and oh my did I have the best sleep ever!! Now I can sleep like im always on holidays. It is very supportive and has maintained its shape and hasn't sagged. Customer service was great to deal with (I just had a few questions to ask them) Show details
Very good quality – It is very good quality, and worth the price. It is very soft it feels like you're sleeping on a dream. I dont want to leave my bed when I go away now! Show details
Sagged after 4 years – Sagged on both sides, back pain in the morning. Expensive. 10 year warranty means nothing. Wanted to buy Aussie, but very disappointed. Don't be sucked in by the salesman. Customer service is poor. Show details

One of the best beds I have slept on!! – We bought the Myside series 6 because I have bad back issues, my husband was told by FortyWinks that this bed would be the best one for my back! And let me tell you IT IS!!! I have gone through 3 other beds before finding this bed and I won't go back. I am finally getting a good night sleep again, and my hubby is sleeping right through the night again too! No tossing or turning trying to find that perfect position. Show details
Very disappointed – 5 year old Series 6 Queen with Gold/Red sides. From first use, the Red side was much firmer than tested in the store, and never improved. The Gold side was good, but after 4 years (now 5) there is a clear 'body impression' where my wife (52 kg) sleeps. I now see that 'body impressions' are not covered by the so-called 10-year warranty, and… Read more
because the mattress has different firmness on each side, it can't be rotated like standard mattresses. I suggest that, unless you are getting a My Side mattress with both sides the same, and the firmness is close to Red, you stay away from this product. The comments are based on my wife's side, as I've never gotten used to the Red side.

Update... I USED TO LOVE IT, NOW I HATE IT – It took me a little while to get used to this mattress but I absolutely love it. I have a full series 6. I turn it each fortnight and have not found any issues with sagging. I have fibromyalgia and have never felt any pain from this mattress. I feel completely supported and comfortable...

has Alzheimer's. Unfortunately, my mattress now has a whopping big sag and I already need a new one :( I wake up with hip and lower back pain every day. It is extremely disappointing that I didn't even get 4 years out of it. It isn't the quality mattress which it's priced at and sold as. I will now be getting a Latex mattress.
Horrible!! Back pain and discomfort – We have pruchased this matress 5 years ago. At first it was very comfortable. About 2 years later I started to feel back pain and discomfort...I put up with it for another year or so untill my wife started to complain as well. We made a manufacturer claim and the matress was replaced/repaired. 12 months after we have the same issue. The base of… Read more
the matress looks fine and no signs of failure, but the top foam layer keeps sinking and creating a lot of back pain. Not happy with the product at all considering how much we paid for it

Don’t do it!! Do your research! – My partner and I impulsively bought the my side mattress 2 years ago, and after a few weeks of adjusting, loved it. For the last 6-8 months, we have been struggling with back pain and discomfort as both sides have dips. We’ve put up with it for so long because the mattress was still quite new and didn’t want be paying a fortune on another mattress. We have finally caved in and have just bought a sleeping duck mattress. So far - it’s amazing. Show details

Worst mattress ever! DO NOT BUY – We were measured up at Snooze and got it made to suite both of us, after 2 years it started to sag so we got it replaced after 4 years of owning it. They replaced the whole mattress and after a month or two it started to sag again. Now looking for a new mattress as both of us are suffering bad backs. This is the worst mattress ever. Do not buy. It was such a waste of money and wish we never bought it to begin with. Show details

Very distasteful company and mattress – So we had ours for 4 years more or less and I been struggling with hip and back pain due to this mattress due to sagging now they want me to professionally deep clean at my own cost to fix as it is also tearing on the top and it has 5 5cent holes where the seems came loose! No good at all!!! Show details

Saggy pile of junk – We had one for 2 years it sagged to the point my partner has ongoing hip issues. they was replaced under warranty. Paid extra for an upgrade and now the same has happened again. Show details
Good for the first two years – This was the most comfortable mattress I had ever slept on for the first two years and then it sagged where we sleep, now you feel like your in a very uncomfortable hammock! Paid and absolute fortune and am quite upset because I know that the warranty wont be honoured as there is a small stain which of course did not cause the sagging but will be… Read more
a definite excuse not to replace or refund the mattress. I have bad hips which are made infinitely worse by the saggy sleeping area. DO NOT purchase this as it is ridiculously expensive for the quality of the product. The sooner they go out of business the better, wish Id done more research.

THANK YOU all for your honesty, we will not purchase this mattress – Thank you , thank you and thank you all. After reading all of these reviews we will not even consider this MY SIDE Series 6 mattress, (or any other series) We went to Forty Winks today tried all of the beds and had the you bute technology done we were seriously thinking of ordering the bed but will no longer even think about it. The Forty Winks we… Read more
went to had the Series 6 and a base on for $5,300, we asked what could be done about the price and they came back instantly will $4,000 this tells me they are struggling to sell these, clearly with good reason.
I'm happy with my purchase – I have 2 mattresses from myside since 6 years. one is queen size series 4 which is excellent. Too comfy have no problems so far at all. 2nd is king size which has two different colour zones. It got indentations after 4 years usage. Unfortunately we were not able to find invoice to claim warranty. Recently we found that we followed the process to… Read more
claim the warranty. We are glad Kingsdown is going to replace it. I'll update you guys how it goes after.
at first it seems great, but after few months it starts to sag – I am 110kg and my wife is 65kg so we decided to trust the sales persons at forty winks after lying on some machine to test our pressure applied to the mattress so a perfectly custom mattress could be fabricated for us. At first the mattress was great, but after only 4 months it started sagging on my side leaving me with a sore neck and tremendous… Read more
back pain. Its gotten so bad that we had to switch our bed with the queen bed we use in the guest bedroom, which was about 10 times as cheap but gives us a lot more comfort, we slept 2 weeks in this bed and my backpain is gone. We don't even have this mattress for a year now, its an absolute disgrace. It was very expensive too so this is totally unacceptable. I demand a full refund because I absolutely don't want this horrible mattress repaired or replaced with something from the same manufacturer. I just wish I read all the reviews here sooner, then I would NEVER have bought this mattress. If forty winks doesn't grant our wishes of refund than we are looking at legal options.
Wish we hadn't bought it – We bought this mattress thinking the 2 different sides would be perfect. Turns out we were very wrong. We now have a hard lump right down the centre, and it sags on both sides. Definately not the most comfy mattress I've had, which is super disappointing considering the cost. I wouldn't recommend it.

Overall Dreadful mattress!!! – Within 1 year it had deteriorated substantially we had to send it back to manufacturer who replaced it then within 6 months it was back to it’s original state with no support , sagging, and so uncomfortable. My back has been in pain and my sleep isn’t rested . We are getting replacing the mattress. It is a waste of money I strongly suggest you do not purchase this mattress from Snooze or Forty Winks.

Sags and creates a dip where you sleep. Good for about a year or two – The mattress warranty was for 10 years. We're 7 years in, and the mattress is pretty much useless. There are dips on both my wife's side, and mine. I know it would fail the 2 inch dip test. We purchased our My Side at Sleepy's, which is now Mattress Firm. This is not one of the manufacturer's on the Mattress Firm's website to make a claim. I… Read more
can have someone come out for $79.99 to inspect it, and then they'll prorate it for years we've used it. Are there any mattresses that will actually honor their "guarantee"? My paperwork says it's a "manufacturer's warranty".
