Beautiful tatami – Fantastic ordering and delivery experience. Richard was very responsive and helpful. We love our tatami mat and will be ordering another one soon!
Three beautiful tatami mats have created a peaceful meditation space. It’s almost 6 months since we laid them down and we’re very satisfied with their high quality. Great service and advice from the Japanache team! Highly recommend. Show details
Great Products and Service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – We bought two sets of Tatamis - one Teahouse and one three mat set. Japanache also sells custom wooden frames for the tatamis. We also bought a futon. All products are high quality. The frames are really fantastic and I highly recommend them to stop tatamis from moving. Richard was really knowledgeable and super friendly. Payment was over the… Read more
phone and delivery was super fast. I am now sleeping on a futon on top of the tatami, and sleeping has been really comfortable. I first started with an extra Thai massage mat underneath the futon as extra cushioning as I adjusted away from a bed. But after two weeks I removed the mat and now I only need the futon. It is so nice to be able to pack up the futon and gain extra space. We used the cartons that the tatamis came in to put underneath the tatami as extra protection against moisture, and as an extra layer of protection. The teahouse tatami fitted the bedroom perfectly and it has completely transformed the room.
We are really happy with our purchase - and it is amazing to be able to buy authentic Japanese Tatamis.
We also bought one of the smaller pet futon for our cat - and she took to it immediately and has been constantly sleeping on it since we got it. She absolutely loves that futon.
Total recommend this store. Wish their display room - store was closer to Sydney :)

Purchased to place under the futon – I purchased a set of semi-double tatami and a wooden frame to place under the futon (purchased all together, hence the amount paid). They arrived quickly and I love the way they smell! Like an earthy, warm, grassy fragrance that makes me sleepy every time I lay down. They are easy to care for and very comfortable to sleep on. I hope their smell… Read more
never goes away completely. The staff at Japanache were a pleasure to deal with and are very knowledgeable and not at all pushy; they answer questions honestly and objectively without a hint of 'salesperson attitude/showiness' (if you know what I mean). I will happily purchase from them again in the future.
Authentic and real tatami – Very nice tatami. I ordered the bed sized tatami which is larger than the regular tatami and the quality is very nice. The grass smell reminds me of my grandmothers house in Japan. There are other tatamis sold online but considering the quality and authenticity of the tatami I think this is the place to buy from. The price here includes the… Read more
shipping cost(which is a lot for tatami) so the total is not too different from the other ones sold elsewhere.
Excellent service and excellent product – Quick and attentive service and equally fast shipping. The quality of the mats is exceptional and exactly what I’m looking for

japanache: exceptional quality Tatami mat, with a great natural fragrance!!! – First time purchaser of a tatami mat, and the quality is exceptional. The natural smell emanating from this item is both soothing and calming, and well is just so right. Show details
Beautiful – I purchased a king sized futon with tatami mats. It is so beautifully made although a little harder than I am use to I still am experiencing a good sleep each night. Would recommend this product. Show details
Second time I have purchased and would recommended to anyone – I have purchased twice now, 5 mats the first time and 3 the second. The first set were purchased 4 years ago and last set start of 2022. We use the area everyday where the mats are and they are hard wearing and comfortable. One set is in the dinning room where children have spilt small amounts of food and someone has dropped a glass of gin with… Read more
no ill effects. Just wipe the mat down, dry it outside and your in business. The company are great to deal with and have also putchased a shoji lamp as well previous. If you are after mats take the plunge. The amount of “wows” we get when people walk into the house is crazy.
Great customer product, fabulous product. Perfect all the way through – So good chatting with Richard. Very knowledgeable and clear. Also followed up and kept me informed all the way through. Even let me know when the delivery was planned to be, as the carrier didn't bother sending me any update on their tracking. About the tatamis I bought, I just love them. It's exactly what I expected. The details are amazing. Thank you Show details
Tatami after 1 year – I purchased my tatami mat on 7/10/2020 and so far it has held up very good. It's very high quality for the price and has not really deteriorated at all from when I bought it. It's a bit on the expensive side but if you're sleeping on the floor or looking for a tatami mat I highly recommend this one Show details
Essential for under Japanache futon mattress – The tatami mats are great quality. We bought these to go under the futon mattress. Along with the frame. The frame went together easily and the tatami mats fitted perfectly. These mats give the right amount of support and give when sleeping on the Japanache futon mattress. This is a significant investment. Very happy with the decision. Show details
Excellent nights sleep and fantastic service – This of my review of the queen bed sized shikibuton, tatami and frame - in red sakura print and brown brocade edge I have been wanting to transition to floor sleeping for a while, and after a lot of research Japanache were able to provide a most authentic and quality product that will prove a real investment for the next few years. I selected… Read more
and ordered this package over email on the Monday and received it couriered Thursday morning. Richard was very prompt and helpful. All items are excellent quality but quite heavy, definitely a two person setup initially! I aired out both the shikibuton and the tatami for a full day in the sun before use.
Assembling the frame was a breeze and from there everything slotted together perfectly. The tatami is firm with enough springiness for sleeping.
My initial nights sleep did take some adjustments and fine tuning but I woke up refreshed. The shikibuton retains heat very well and I wasn’t cold overnight. The extra pillowcases I ordered are beautiful quality, handmade by Naomi.
Overall I highly recommend you take the plunge to floor sleeping on a Japanache shikibuton and tatami. It is a significant investment but worth it.
The price breakdown is: Queen futon - $799 2 x Matching pillowcases - $40 2 x Tatami mats with bed frame - $759 Aramex courier delivery - $179

The real deal – The mats are the genuine article, customer service great and delivery on time. Easy to put together and hassle free. A little bit on the expensive side but worth it. Show details
Amazing Product – The tatami feels exactly like those I slept on during my six week trip to Japan. Authentic and comfortable, with useful care instructions included, I would highly recommend Japanache if you are looking for great service and products. Show details
Solid, convenient, perfect – I didn't know what to expect, but these mats are very thick and solid, with a slight but pleasant odour. They sit snug inside the easy to build frame, and are the perfect support for the futon. Show details
great tatami used as mattress – the tatami mats are solid in quality and is great to use as mattress for us, as we have back pain problems when using soft mattresses. Even those very expensive firm mattress could not provided enough support to the back, so we went and search for tatami and was lucky to find the Japanache website. We bought a queen pair a few years ago, and have just made our second purchase when we upgraded to a king bed. Show details
Great product (tatami mat) – This is the second time I'm ordering from the store. Previously bought original futons (great quality!) and now purchased tatami mats (through builder), they are great however probably my builder managed to cut one up in transportation/unpacking so they had to replace one. Also if your builder drops them on corners they might be not perfectly… Read more
straight, however as long as you have a tensioning timber border, it will eventually go away under your weight.
Excellent! – Excellent condition, and came in good timing. Customer service was very personalised and helpful. We are very happy with the mats. They look and feel great. Highly recommend purchasing Tatami mats from Japanache! Show details
Fastest Delivery and Best Service – We got a Queen sized tatami mat (with frame) to replace our living room rug. I ordered on Monday and it was here before Friday the same week. I live in Melbourne and that was really a very easy and quick transactions. My tatami got damaged from delivery and Richard quickly organised a replacement. Love it! Show details
Best decision ever – Bought a queen-size set of tatami mats and frame from Japanache and it's excellent to sleep on. With the fresh natural rice straw smell, it's almost like we're on our Japan holiday again. The delivery was quick, the frame easy to assemble and well-fitted. The mats themselves have that quality finish you'd expect of something made in Japan. Really… Read more
glad there's a shop in Australia that imports this stuff and gets it out to customers stress-free! Keep up the good work, Richard!
