Purchased the OneBed Max in March. Delivered the next day. I was a little hesitant with this purchase as I had purchased another box mattress in November and had to return as it was too soft and edges of bed were weak. This mattress was perfect from the first night and provides firm support. I would highly recommend. Purchased after my chiropractor recommended. Show details · 1
I purchased this mattress expecting normal comfort and support, however my experience has been disappointing both in terms of product performance and how the issue was handled after raising concerns. Main Issue — Poor Support During Actual Sleep At first glance, the mattress appears normal. There is no obvious permanent indentation when it is… Read more
not being used. However, the problem becomes clear during normal sleep.
When lying on the mattress, it sinks significantly under body weight, creating a noticeable “valley” effect that makes it difficult to maintain proper spinal alignment. After several weeks of use, I began experiencing ongoing back discomfort and disrupted sleep. The mattress feels unstable and does not provide the level of support reasonably expected from a relatively new product.
Important context:
* The mattress has always been used with a waterproof protector. * It has been placed on a suitable, supportive base. * There is no visible damage — the issue occurs only during normal use.
In short, the problem is functional rather than cosmetic: the mattress rebounds when unloaded but performs poorly when actually slept on.
Customer Service & Warranty Process
I contacted customer support explaining the situation in detail. While responses were polite, the assessment focused strictly on warranty requirements requiring at least 20mm of *visible sagging measured without weight* on the mattress.
Because the mattress regains its shape when not in use, it does not show this level of permanent indentation, even though excessive sinking occurs during sleep — which is when support actually matters.
I was asked to unzip the mattress, remove internal foam layers, and provide staged measurement photos. Despite explaining that the issue relates to performance during normal use, the discussion remained limited to whether a measurable visual dip existed under warranty terms.
Australian Consumer Law Concerns
I raised that my concern relates to consumer guarantees under Australian Consumer Law, which require products to be of acceptable quality and fit for purpose — meaning they should function as a reasonable consumer would expect during normal use.
My request was not unreasonable; I asked whether a practical resolution such as an exchange, store credit, or return (even with applicable fees) could be considered. However, the company maintained that assessment could only occur under warranty criteria tied to visible sagging measurements, rather than considering usability or performance concerns.
This distinction was frustrating, as consumer guarantees operate independently of a manufacturer’s warranty and are intended to address situations where a product does not perform as expected even without visible structural defects.
Overall Experience
The experience felt procedural rather than solution-focused. A mattress can appear visually compliant while still failing to provide adequate support during sleep, and this practical reality did not seem to be meaningfully considered during the process.
Pros
* Polite and timely communication responses.
Cons
* Excessive sinking during normal use. * Causes back discomfort despite being relatively new. * Warranty assessment relies only on visible sagging measurements. * Limited flexibility when concerns are raised under consumer guarantees.
Final Verdict
This mattress may look fine visually, but in my experience, real-world comfort and support did not meet reasonable expectations. Buyers should be aware that if an issue relates to performance rather than measurable visible sagging, resolving concerns may be difficult despite protections provided under Australian Consumer Law.
I hope this feedback encourages a more practical and customer-focused approach to resolving similar issues in the future.

I had a great experience buying my mattress, was delivered within a couple of days, was easy to open and place on bed. It's not too heavy which is great as I tend to have to lift it a lot. I love the firmness. I haven't noticed any sagging and my sleep has significantly improved, I'm actually so comfortable now that I don't really want to get out… Read more · 1
of bed in the morning hehe. I would say one thing that could be improved is with the soft layer on top, it tends to move around a bit to the side so I would suggest maybe adding tabs with Velcro that you can be used to attach to the mattress. But otherwise I'm super happy with my purchase. And the price was fantastic! I couldn't afford anything too expensive but I wanted quality and this one ticked all my boxes. Thank you!
Arrived fast. Once out of its box it gained its shape in hours. I wasn’t bothered by the new mattress smell. It feels firmer than I expected for a medium rated mattress. Very supportive. In over a month it hasn’t lost its support at all. I’ve found sleeping supine best on this mattress. Side sleeping is okay but only just. Happy with the product for the price as it was quite cheap in a half price sale Show details · 1
Comfortable & supportive - Great compromise between medium and firm! – After weeks of excitement about finally sleeping in our own bed post-renovation, we were devastated to discover on Christmas Eve that our old Lazybed mattress had fallen victim to mould while stored in the shed. But Santa (and OneBed) came to the rescue! We ordered a OneBed Queen Size mattress on Christmas Day, and to our surprise, it arrived… Read more · 1
within a week, landing on our doorstep in regional NSW just in time for the last day of the year—a true holiday miracle!
Having previously owned a latex mattress, we had high expectations for comfort. My partner prefers a medium feel, while I lean towards firm support, and the OneBed Original Mid-Firm was the perfect balance for both of us—just like our previous mattress. The zero motion transfer feature has also been a game-changer, especially with my partner’s pregnancy-related midnight wake-ups. No more sleep disruptions!
We also decided to treat ourselves to some OneBed pillows, which arrived with the mattress and have been just as comfortable and supportive—a great combo for an even better sleep experience.
As for durability, we’ve had the mattress for about a month and a half and so far, it’s holding up perfectly. Our previous mattress (which seemed to be of very similar quality) was still in great shape after about 6-7 years of use (apart from the mould of course).
In short: great value, great comfort, great service. 100% would recommend!
Comfy and supportive – Moving our little one from a cot to a ‘big kid’ bed was a big milestone, and the OneBed double mattress made it an absolute dream—literally! The mattress is perfectly soft yet supportive, and our child has been sleeping comfortably through the transition (which means we’re sleeping too!). Watching them stretch out and enjoy all the extra space… Read more · 1
has been so rewarding. No tossing, no turning—just peaceful snoozing. If you’re nervous about making the transition, this mattress is the ultimate win for both kids and parents as there enough room for snuggling while reading a bedtime story. Highly recommend - very supporting for kids and adults. This is the second Onebed mattress that we have purchased and it feels just as good as the new purchase, maintaining shape and firmness.
Great mattress – Absolutely loving this mattress, took a few night to get use to it but love it and sleeping great! Show details · 1
Very Poor Delivery Handling and Extremely Stressful Experience I had a very disappointing and stressful experience with OneBed from start to finish. My mattress was delivered on 21 January. The delivery was supposed to be handled properly and not left unattended. However, the driver left the mattress downstairs in my apartment building without… Read more
informing me. I was not contacted at the time of delivery, and a digital signature was recorded without my knowledge or consent. This was extremely concerning.
Because the mattress was left unattended, I had no choice but to bring it upstairs myself. The mattress is large and heavy, and I have a back injury. Carrying it upstairs caused me physical strain and unnecessary stress.
When I inspected the package, I noticed that the outer packaging was torn. I immediately informed OneBed. I was told that this can sometimes happen during logistics. After unpacking the mattress, I discovered visible dents and damage. I reported this straight away and was advised to wait 5–7 days to see if the issue would resolve itself. I followed their instructions, but the damage remained.
On 29 January, they requested my details to arrange collection. On 3 February, their third-party delivery team contacted me and scheduled pickup for 11 February. Before the scheduled collection, I clearly informed OneBed in writing that since the mattress had already been unpacked, their team would need to bring appropriate packing materials. I did not receive any response regarding this.
On 11 February, the collection team arrived but refused to take the mattress. They stated that it would not fit in the lift and that they were not permitted to carry it via stairs. They also confirmed they do not provide packing services. This meant the collection failed completely, despite me being available and fully cooperative.
Throughout this entire process, communication was slow and frustrating. Replies often took 2–3 business days, and I had to repeatedly follow up. At one point, I was asked to move the heavy mattress downstairs myself to make collection easier. Given that the original issue was caused by improper delivery and I have a back injury, this request was unreasonable.
Because the damaged mattress remained in my apartment for an extended period, I was unable to purchase and set up a replacement mattress. I had to sleep on the floor while waiting for this matter to be resolved. The mattress was also taking up significant space in my home during this time.
Eventually, the mattress was collected and I did receive a refund. While I acknowledge that the refund was processed in the end, the overall experience was extremely inconvenient, physically demanding, and poorly coordinated.
The main issues were:
Mattress left unattended without consent
Digital signature recorded without authorisation
Damaged product received
Failed collection attempt
Lack of packing coordination
Slow and delayed communication
Unreasonable expectations placed on the customer
I understand that logistics can sometimes be complex, especially with third-party delivery teams. However, as a customer, I dealt with OneBed, and I expected proper handling, accountability, and timely resolution.
Based on my experience, I cannot recommend OneBed. The process was far more stressful and time-consuming than it should have been.

I would not recommend onebed to anyone. We purchased the mattress and [Name Removed] called 0700 in the morning continuously even though the delivery day was pre decided. When we receive the mattress after opening it there were two major tears on the mattress. I have attached the pictures as well. This isn’t it, since three days straight I have… Read more
been trying contacting them. No response none at all. None via email, phone or their enquiry form online. This is terrible. Everytime I call they say leave a voicemail, I have left over 7 voicemails and many emails. Terrible terrible service and choice.
We’re sorry about the small tear on the mattress cover.… Read more

Amazingly fast delivery. Great customer service. When deciding about what mattress to buy the online support was very helpful. I've had a week sleeping on my new mattress which I paired with an adjustable bed. So far it's comfortable and supportive as a have medical issues and struggled in a standard bed and spring mattress.

After spending a bit of time looking into boxed mattresses, I am so glad we decided on OneBed! It is the perfect level of firmness for us, and feels very supportive. No sagging or denting so far. After ordering a king size mattress we quickly realised it wasn’t going to fit in our new apartment. The one bed customer service team helped with… Read more · 1
changing to a queen size mattress - seamless experience, they were very helpful!
It does have a bit of an odd smell when you first open it, so I would recommend leaving it to air out for a few days after opening and letting it inflate.
Definitely allow a good 2 weeks for it to arrive as well. We luckily had an air bed on hand while moving house
Great comfort. The mattress is really good and it feels like you are sleeping on a cloud. I have tried multiple mattress but I must say this was the winner. On top of that flexibility to adjust the firmness was added bonus. I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for one. Show details · 1

Terrible quality — the mattress felt lumpy from day one and offered no real support. I woke up sore every morning, and the material started sagging within weeks. Definitely not worth the money.

Terrible experience. Waited over a week for our order to be dispatched, now the courier has lost it and they’re both blaming eachother with no resolution for the customer. Spoke to customer service who said there’s nothing they can do for us, to just wait for an email response. Absolutely appalling customer service, clearly off-shore using a… Read more
virtual assistance who knows nothing and constantly says “this is out of my scope”. Absolutely awful experience. Never buying from them again, I’ve paid over $1500 for an order I’ve never received.

The Onebed Essential 11” King Mattress has been a great purchase so far. I mainly sleep on my back, and it’s been really supportive and comfortable from the first night. I’ve had some back pain before, and it already feels noticeably better. Setup was also super easy — it arrived well packed and expanded quickly once opened. Overall, really happy with it so far.

This one-bed mattress is very comfortable and easy to apply to the bed. The material feels soft yet supportive, making it great for a good night’s sleep. It fits perfectly on the bed without any hassle, and setting it up was quick and simple. After using it, I noticed a big improvement in comfort and overall sleep quality.

Ended up replacing our expensive mattress for a OneBed mattress and have found it very comfortable, supportive and great value for money. Have just purchased our third OneBed mattress for our son. Show details · 1
Onebed you did it again! Super comfy and ‘right’ firmness is what Onebed essential is all about. This is a new addition to our already existing Queen mattress from Onebed. While others ‘sag’ in a couple of years in the name of ‘memory foam’, onebed essential remains true to its promise of no sleep disturbances from tossing and turning of a partner. Keep up the good work and do not change. Show details · 1
I’ve been using the Onebed mattress for a while now, and it has genuinely improved my sleep quality. The mattress strikes a great balance between support and comfort—soft enough to feel plush, but firm enough to keep the back aligned properly. I’ve noticed fewer aches in the morning, especially around the lower back and shoulders. The motion… Read more · 1
isolation is excellent as well. If you share a bed, this makes a big difference—turning over or getting up doesn’t disturb the other person. Temperature control is another strong point. The breathable foam layers do a good job preventing heat build‑up, which is something I’ve struggled with on other foam mattresses. Setup was surprisingly easy. It arrived compressed in a box, expanded quickly, and had minimal smell from the start. Overall, the Onebed mattress offers impressive comfort and value. If you’re looking for a supportive, well‑designed foam mattress at a reasonable price, it’s definitely worth considering.
Mattress is comfy, have had no complaints from those that have slept on it. Communication from company could be improved. Delay in mattress delivery, sent enquiry that was never responded too bit mattress did arrive 3 days later Show reply

Very disappointing experience. The mattress I received did not fully decompress, especially around the edges. Online chat was unhelpful and I never received a proper follow-up.

issue, which is unacceptable for a customer service role. I was told the mattress couldn’t be replaced because all replacements would have the same issue, and only a refund could be offered. The website images show fully decompressed mattresses, including the edges. If this decompression issue is common, it should be clearly disclosed so customers can make an informed decision. Poor customer service and misleading product presentation.

The mattress itself feels good. It is very supportive. This is my second purchase from onebed after 8 years.But the website for shopping can be misleading consumers. I failed to get a set of free bed cover during the promotion due to above reason. The other problem was the delievery. The person who supposed to do the delievery did not do it… Read more · 1
properly by just leaving a card in the mail box. But the fact was there was someone at home on that day, they just don't want to wait a bit longer for the elderly to come to the front door. Or they simply just don't want to do the lifting to bring the mattress to the front door. After that the delievery person will ask for $5 for a redelievery. Luckily, their customer service lady was quite professional. She fixed both problems for me. She did try her best. She deserves a big end of year bonus.
We’ve just received our new one bed mattress! It came in the smallest box and was so convenient to unpack. It is so soft and comfortable. We’ve had it for a few nights now and I feel so rested in the morning. Best Christmas present ever! Show details · 1
I bought a Queen size mattress a months ago and it’s pretty comfortable, not plushy and has certain support when laying on it. So I ordered a King size mattress for the other room. Pretty happy with the product. Show details · 1
I’ve bought my bed and bedding from One Bed and finally got the mattress - I’m so impressed - very comfortable and like the other products it’s high quality - I keep coming back and can’t wait to get the pillow next. Show details · 1
This is the fourth onebed mattress we have purchased for our family! We started with a queen, upgraded to a King and now the kids have new single mattresses. After all my research and what I wanted out of a company and mattress, it always came back to onebed. Would never look anywhere else! Show details
You guys have got to stop promoting that 'cooling' gel-infused memory foam nonsense. It isn't cooling at all, it's downright hot. My Onebed mattress was the hottest thing I've ever slept on, and I never would've described myself as a hot sleeper before my purchase - and eventual return. Even though the mattress was insanely comfortable, the heat… Read more
retention - even in the middle of Winter when I bought it - was too much to bear. And no 'cooling' mattress protector helped either - I tried two! Also, I only had the mattress for a short time, and the layers seem to disassemble. I'd really like to try again sometime, but not while you're still peddling that blatant cooling gel myth.
Iam a returning customer and I have been using one bed double mattress and it is good and easy to maintain as it has mattress cover which can be washed and the good thing is the firmness can be adjusted as per our need. Show details · 1
