 AI reviews summary 

The overall sentiment for Makin Mattresses is overwhelmingly positive, with consumers frequently highlighting the brand's exceptional customer service and efficient delivery. Reviewers consistently praise the staff's product knowledge and the absence of high-pressure sales tactics. While the majority find the mattresses high-quality and comfortable, a small segment of users reported significant discomfort and difficulties with the physical weight of the products.

Pros
Exceptional Service: Staff are frequently described as knowledgeable, professional, and helpful without being pushy, often going above and beyond to accommodate specific needs or custom orders.
Efficient Delivery: The company is noted for its remarkably fast turnaround times, often delivering within 2 to 7 days, with professional delivery teams who provide clear communication and installation assistance.
Customisation & Range: Users appreciate the ability to order mattresses to specific dimensions for caravans and RVs, as well as the availability of double-sided mattresses that can be flipped.
Comfort Guarantee: The 5-year comfort guarantee is cited as a significant factor in providing peace of mind, with several reports of the company honouring this by successfully adjusting mattress firmness after purchase.
Cons
Physical Weight: Multiple reviewers noted that the mattresses (particularly the Bellissimo range) are extremely heavy and lack handles, making them very difficult to flip, rotate, or change sheets on.
Firmness Discrepancies: A few users reported that the mattresses felt significantly harder than the showroom models, leading to physical pain and sleep disruption even after a "wearing-in" period.
Edge Support Issues: There are isolated reports of the mattress sides sinking or sloping over time, affecting the overall support and sleeping surface.
Communication Gaps: While rare, some customers experienced poor communication regarding missing items in their orders or difficulty escalating issues to senior management.
Verdict

Makin Mattresses is a highly-regarded choice for consumers seeking Australian-made bedding with a focus on customisation and superior customer service. While the products are praised for their build quality and longevity, potential buyers should be aware of the significant weight of the mattresses and may wish to confirm the specifics of the comfort guarantee regarding returns versus adjustments.

Service was excellent. Served by Teresa. She listened to what I wanted. I just tried to mattresses which she suggested. I chose the second one. There was no attempt by Teresa to get something expensive. All this took just 10 mins. The two men who delivered the mattress early this morning were friendly and efficient. Thank you. Show details ·  1

We needed a new mattress for our caravan. Most we looked at were just foam and made to the size they think you need.

I had been looking for an ultra firm mattress for some years, and had visited every mattress supplier on the north side of Brisbane. When I tested the Makin Mattress Ultra Firm, it was no doubt the firmest mattress of all by far. I hesitated for a… Read more ·  1

few months to buy it, then went back and tried a second time. I reasoned if it is too hard, I can always put a memory foam topper on it.......and if I bought a too soft mattress, nothing will make it firmer. I dealt with two ladies at the Nundah store. They were both good to deal with...they quickly understood what I was seeking. My mattress had to be made, which took 1 week. It was delivered today, on time, and the two delivery guys were efficient, helpful, and polite. I had paid for them to remove the old mattress and all went super smooth. I checked the mattress over very carefully for quality of stitching and consistency of material layers, and there are no issues. update: I have had 2 nights sleep on the bed now, and it is performing to expectations. I have to say my dealings with Makin Mattresses and the mattress have been top quality. The company is the only one I have dealt with that seems to have listened carefully to customers, and created products to suit demand. I highly recommend them, and will gladly promote them through my work as a clinical physiotherapist. Bruce Gray Deagon, Queensland

 Follow-up  · Yes, we bought in store as it was important for us to be able to lay on the mattresses. The show room wasn’t over staged or visually cluttered. Our salesman was present but not pushy. Friendly but not unprofessional. He answered all the questions we had. He didn’t put the hard sell on us for the more expensive options or push further sales or add… Read more

After destroying my back with a mattress from another Australian made company that delivered a poor product and even worse customer service I ended up buying one from Makin Matresses. When I moved interstate I didn't have the heart to take that bed from my ex. Now that I decided to buy a decent bed again I didn't bother contacting anyone else,… Read more ·  1

just contacted the closest Makin Mattresses store and they were very helpful, even arranging for a third party freight company to deliver it to the country area I now live in, albeit at my expense. I would recommend a bellissimo duo to anyone, if you would spend a couple of hundred dollars for a hotel room for a night then paying for a quality mattress that lasts a decade is an investment rather than a cost. I'm a tradesman who relies on my body to make an income, finished work at 1130 last night and started at 730 this morning, I probably would have been sore or grumpy if I didn't have a few hours of good sleep. Having the 5 year comfort guarantee is such a peace of mind.

My husband and I got a Matilda Bellissimo medium queen mattress and it was the biggest mistake of our lives, expensive mistake. We paid $3000 and in a week I had extreme back, knee and ankle pain, I was not sleeping at all my mental health was at an all time low, I went back into the store and felt like I was being gaslighted by the manager she… Read more

kept questioning me as to why I got a medium mattress and kept telling me the mattress on the showroom floor have been laid on for years and that’s why they feel good. She insisted that I need to work the bed in for it to feel the same. I ordered a topper and paid more money in hopes the mattress would be more comfortable I have given it 3 months and I am in extreme pain we rang the store again to be told the only thing they can do is I use our comfort warranty to change the mattress firmness which won’t help I laid on the plush and hard mattresses and got full body numbness. It’s extremely disappointing that they don’t have an offer of ur money back when you have these kinds of problems. We also asked to speak to someone higher then the store manager and she told me that she was it and then said there is an area manager when we insisted their had to be someone higher and we are still waiting to hear from that person. My hope in writing this review is to save the next person from this mistake and saving them their money.

Sure! Here’s a glowing review you can use for the mattress company: --- A Dream Experience from Start to Finish – Thank You!

customer service team went above and beyond. They were incredibly patient, taking the time to understand our needs and guide us through the selection process without any pressure. Their knowledge and genuine care made all the difference.

There was a small hiccup with our order, but it was handled with such professionalism and kindness that we felt even more confident in our decision. The issue was resolved quickly and smoothly, with excellent communication every step of the way.

Now for the best part—the mattresses! The Bellisomore is everything we hoped for and more. It's unbelievably comfortable, supportive in all the right ways, and we’ve been enjoying the best sleep we've had in years. We wake up feeling rested, refreshed, and without the aches and pains we used to have.

Thank you for making our mattress-buying experience such a positive one. We’ll be recommending Bellisomore to everyone we know!

After research my findings lead to a mattress here. Natural comfort wool pocket excel. The decision was made for the breathable quality, natural fibres, long life. Were we fooled! Firstly this mattress is so hard, yes these things take time to wear in but its been almost 3 months & we are waking in pain each day. Im 40 & active, this is horrible.… Read more

Secondly, when I called the store earlier on they suggested their removable pillow top, we purchased this. Now not only is our bed still hard its also now a disgusting hot mess. Ive emailed the store, im sure nothing will be resolved as mattresses are an expensive investment that we assume total loss once it leaves the store. Update: last night my husband slept on the floor & me on the couch!

Very disappointed with our Makin mattress Queen Bellissimo. We have a problem with the sides sinking low on both sides to put us on a slope. We have tried to flip the bed and reverse it and it works for a couple of nights and then does the same. I watch sky and in the ad the male gets on one side and flips the bed making it look easy but our bed… Read more

is so heavy it takes 2 to do it. We are in our 70's and I have to get my son over to help flip and turn the mattress. Making the bed and changing the sheets is a gruelling task as well as the bed is very heavy and difficult to lift. I cannot understand why the mattress doesnt have handles to assist lifting the mattress. Our previous mattress a Sealy Posturepedic which we have used for 15 years appx was incredible and easy to make up and turn. I regret not buying this product again. 2 also bought a bed base and 2 side tables at a cost of $4700 I would not recommend this bed to anyone and buyer beware it has been a great disappointment.
