Organature Organic Cotton

Simply Beautiful xx – My Organature order arrived this week and I could not be happier. The wooden bedroom furniture is expertly crafted and looks stunning. And the bedding - so soft & squishy & luxurious to sleep in! The Raw Cosy flannel is heaven on these cold Melbourne winter nights and it is such a treat sinking into them when I jump into bed. And the mattress… Read more

feels perfect, not too soft and not too hard. I love that I'm not breathing in nasty chemicals as I sleep.

My most favourite item at the moment has to be the boomerang pillow - where has this been all my life??? I've had a boomerang pillow in the past but it had nothing on this one. I use it for everything from propping myself up to read or watch tv, to laying it down and hugging the side as I sleep. It keeps its position so well, must be something to do with the kapok stuffing. I've never used anything with kapok before but I've become a big fan.

The staff were amazing, everyone from Renee in the shop who patiently helped me with my millions of annoying questions, to Michael the delivery driver who went above and beyond with everything including setting up the bed for me and delivering my old tallboy to someone in need.

Nothing was too much trouble for the wonderful staff who even helped arranged a custom for not only the tallboy and the bed, but even got their sewing room to make a special Raw Cosy flannel boomerang pillow case just for me. So kind :-)

And best of all it all smells so....natural. No yuck chemical smell like everything is these days. Prices are good and love that it is all Australian made and owned. And awesome quality. I am so lucky to live in the same state as these guys hehe.

Thankyou so, so much Organature. If only every company out there shared your same ethics, passion for health and dedication to high quality products. Love you guys and everything you stand for xxx

Fabulous quality – I ordered 2 organic pillows and when they arrived I Couldn’t believe that there could be such beautiful pillows in the world. They are fit for a King and Queen. I had a wonderful sleep as well. I will never ever buy an ordinary pillow again. This will be my go to shop from now on. Beautiful people as well. They are so helpful. Show details

Very Happy – I wanted to buy an Australian Made blanket. Did some research and placed my order. Beautiful quality. Lightweight but warm. I would not hesitate to purchase for our other bedrooms when needed. Show details

Very disappointed with the finish of the product – First time customer I was looking forward to my sheet set, although the fabric seemed of quality the actual finishing of the sheets was extremely disappointing as was just over-locker type finish no nice detail, I am not sure you can sell this product like that. At this stage I would not recommend it. Show details

Terrible service – Two weeks ago, I was making an online purchase for a few pillows (>$200 worth) and a mattress protector. The mattress protector is out of stock online, so i emailed the company for an ETA as i don't want to pay two separate postage fees ($20 flat rate per purchase). Last week, I was informed to "keep an eye on their website" as new stock will be… Read more

added. I have followed up again, one week later, and explained that I am in real need of the pillows. I received the same response - i.e., "keep an eye on our website next week". As a long-standing customer, I expected that they would send the pillows now and, once the protectors are ready, they would let me know and waive a second delivery charge. Asking me to check their rather non-user friendly website each day for updates and pay two delivery charges for their out of stock items is just poor customer service. I have purchased bedroom hardwood furniture from them over the last couple of years and the craftsmanship is very good. But their service is actually quite terrible.

Caution regarding mattresses – This review is specifically to do with the Organature mattresses and not any of the other products the company sells. I recently purchased an Organature mattress because I'm chemical sensitive. However, on use, my skin and airways began to burn and my lungs became congested trying to cope with the injury. This is the same reaction I have when… Read more

using a regular foam filled fumigated mattress from any bedding store. I carefully considered all changes that I may have introduced and the only thing that had changed was the mattress. I didn't want to believe it was the mattress so I stripped the bed and lay on the bare mattress and the burning sensation immediately kicked in. All my other certified organic bedding I have owned for some time, and have never experienced problems with it. Made contact with the company, politely asking them if anything had changed in very recent times regarding the manufacture of their mattresses. I promptly received assurance that their mattresses were 100% organic ... not much time for doing any thorough investigation. I was provided with the account of the original chemical sensitive business owner who still uses the organature mattress he made 20 years ago. That's very good news for him, however there have been huge, huge changes with regards to chemicals over the space of 20 years. The company imports their cotton wading from India. Did some research and discovered that in very recent years, from 2017 onward, GOTS organic cotton in India has been under serious fire for not complying with standards. Do the research for yourself, it's all there. I believe Organature has assumed that the cotton wading they are importing is organic and originally it probably was so. They may well have been unknowingly duped in recent times. If the company is going to advertise their product as being certified organic, they have a duty to remain ever vigilant regarding changes. I currently own a well constructed but totally unusable mattress and as things stand, I'm not being refunded. I'm reviewing this product because I know personally of how difficult things can be for people with chemical sensitivity and I want to spare them from the same expensive mistake I have made. If you're not chemical sensitive, go right ahead and buy for yourself a very well constructed mattress. However, if you are genuinely chemical sensitive, I strongly, strongly advise you to stay away from these mattresses, it's not worth the risk.

Chemical-free comfort – Purchased chemical-free bed base, mattress, and bedding from Organature, and have had no problems with sleep and feel so comfortable, after having tried countless mattresses and toppers from other companies which have even pretended to be chemical-free but were not. Entire ethos and standards are explained on website. I accept no other… Read more

substitutes now.

Takes a bit more care to ensure products don't get contaminated but its well worth it.

What a literal breath of fresh air, if only other companies were as transparent.

Cot blanket, Cotton poplin sheet set, Silk cotton pillows – A couple of years ago I got a cot blanket for my niece and her mother loved it! A few days ago I bought a poplin sheet set, and a pair of silk cotton pillows. The sheets are soft and crispy. The pillows are fantastic, they come with extra filling, so you can leave them thick or take some filling out and make an mini cushion with it. :) Packaging is all natural, so it was like opening Christmas. Highly recommend these products. Show details

Organic cotton flannel and fleece - perfect for baby! – I'm absolutely delighted with organic cotton flannel and fleece baby things (mattress protectors, baby wipes, cloths and blankets - all un-dyed) that I purchased from Organature. The fabrics, flannel ("raw cosy") and fleece are so soft and lovely; very good quality fabrics. I especially like their 70x 70 triple layer mattress protector pads -… Read more

they make excellent washable nappy change pads ( no need for plastic mats!). Renee was very helpful and posted some fabric swatches so I could get a feel for the fabric before I placed my online order. Really nice customer service.

It's exceptional businesses like Organature, we are lucky to have in Australia – Organature leads the retail market in selling the purest Gots organic non toxic products. We are lucky to have this company in Australia. Gots organic (Global Organic Textile Standards) are the healthiest non toxic fibre, eco certified colours, healthy for our skin and the best for the planet and farmers. Thank you Organature for contributing to making the planet a better place. Like Patagonia your mission is inspiring.

Terrible service from beginning to end! – Mattress received was not suitable for bed frame we had which wasn’t explained at the time of purchase. Mattress had to be returned they expected me to package it back in its original packaging which had been discarded. Then they sent a removalist to pick it up 2 weeks later. They wouldn’t refund me the money till the matttress was returned and it… Read more

took a month for them to get the mattress from the removalist. It took 2 months to get my refund which was made in installments as there Eftpos machine could only refund $1000.00 at a time. even though there mattress are around $2000.00. Worst experience. Not worth the hassle and time!

Pillows unusable – A few years ago I purchased pillows and a blanket from Organature. The blanket I got was good enough for summer, so soon after that I bought four pillows. I sent the pillows back for a refund as they were so ridiculously thin I don't think even a baby could have used them. They did not look as advertised. Returned with my own money by the way. The… Read more

owner wrote "return to sender" on the bag and sent the pillows back to me and did not refund the money; saying I had somehow tainted the pillows (despite using one once.) I never ended up using the pillows at all. A complete waste of money and my time. He was so nasty in our email exchanges, I will never purchase their products again. A shame because I may have been a repeat customer of other goods if I had have been treated with respect and listened to.

Not so great pillows – Several years ago I purchased sheets and pillows from Organature. The medium pillows didn't take long to go as flat as a pancake and were totally unusable. The sheets are nice and I'm still using them but being natural cotton they sort of suction together.  Show details

so warm; so soothing; and free of any chemicals whilst sleeping – After hunting on many websites for flannette (organic) sheets, found Organature RAW ORGANIC COSY FLANNEL sheet sets. THANK YOU very much for these very warm, clean; wonderful winter sheets. (made in Victoria). Go to bed early and read a book; feel contentment and warmth; sleep peacefully. You must try these sheets. They are so thick and warm and strong Please keep making them (with the raw cotton). Many thanks Narelle "cold climate"  Show details

Cotton futon worst bed ever slept on – I ordered a cotton futon queen mattress online. Couldn't go to try before buy because I live too far away. When I first got it it was comfy enough for a few days then the cotton squished right down to almost nothing and I could feel the wooden bed slats underneath. I slept terribly and woke up with sore joints. It took a week for someone to come… Read more

see the mattress to verify what I was telling them. I was given a refund and an email clarifying that "the mattress was indeed too thin"...I wrote back asking why I was sold a product that was too thin and didn't serve its purpose. I never got a reply. Massive inconvenience and terrible experience. Bought a cotton pillow with the same issue. Like sleeping on a towel after a few days because the cotton flattens so much.

I love these products! – Over the last two years we have gradually decked out our whole bedroom with Organature products. Starting just with sheets and pillows we found the sheets very washable and soft. The pillows did compress over time but we added another one and finally bought the hi profile ones and they are perfect. Our mattress is firm, and the company told us… Read more

it would be medium to firm, so as expected. When my sensitivities set in this year again i felt I needed a softer surface and they recommended a topper. Best thing ever!!!!!

I can only suggest you try the mattress first without topper and if need buy one. You will be mush more comfortable.

Calico sheets can be made to order and they are undyed, unbleached and a bit firm till washed a few times.

Hit and Miss – These sheets are so hit and miss that I cannot recommend them for people suffering from chemical allergies despite the company touting their suitability for these people - even to the extent of saying they don't need to be pre-washed. I purchased multiple sets and the first set was good. The second, in natural colour, took about six washes to… Read more

become usable - but another set in the same colour has not yet become usable. The last colour, a green colour, is so horrible that it burns both of our skin despite having been subjected to 13 washes, two soaks in hot water with bicarb soda and soap plus numerous days baking in the hot sun. Obviously the material - which is sourced from various overseas companies - is not as organic as the company would have us believe. I have wasted so much money and had so much discomfort from these sheets. Worse, I tried to tell the company and got ignored. So I left an honest review on their website. It was removed. I now feel compelled to warn other chemically intolerant people not to trust these sheets.

*Update* The company has now refunded the cost of the green sheets. This was appreciated.

OK For Foreign Fabric. Shame It Ain't Aussie!! – Have been totally flabbergasted for the past 3 years to NOT be able to own Aussie grown/made sheets in a country which supposedly grows the world's best cotton! We're thinking it's probably all exported and we then are expected to use the rubbish grown elsewhere!! Just shows us as the total mugs we are I guess!! Anyway it seemed that we were… Read more

obliged to either buy Aussie made from foreign fabric (a la Organature) or foreign made from fabric loosely described as Aussie (a la Aust Weaving Mills).

Since we are at a total loss to understand the gross stupidity of sending fabric 15000KM to have a seam stitched onto it, we ended up choosing the lesser of the two evils and settled for Organature. It is said to be Aussie made from organic fabric from Indonesia only 3500KM much better, isn't it?

Now given that the thing Indonesia is most famous for on the world stage is corruption, we will accept the "organic" claim with a bit of a grain of salt but let's face it, we had been agonizing about this for over 3 years as we watched our existing doona cover slowly rot before our eyes so we knew what we were getting.

We chose a king sized doona cover in "Teal", and a sheet set in "Natural" - hoping this would mean an unbleached, untreated fabric to have close to our skin.

The items were priced a little higher than we would have liked considering the fabric would in all probability have cost a few bob and the postage costs mind blowingly exorbitant (the company would have received a far larger order had they been more reasonable!) with no discount for larger purchases whatsoever.

This is called "disincentive", Organature!!!

If we were to buy their stuff again it would probably be worth our while to visit the store when next on holidays and do a large order - almost seems cheaper to drive there from QLD than pay their postage costs!

Anyway the items seem no frills and well made just how we like it. The "Teal" is in reality aquamarine blue and it would have been nice had the description simply said so. This is fine, we love the colour. "Teal" can be extremely subjective. The "Natural" of the sheets appears to be "white" in reality not the unbleached "calico" we would have expected "natural" to be.

All in all, good stuff without the nonsensical bells and whistles that other mobs focus on. The fabric is noticeably comfortable, and we would have bought far more had the costs been more realistic, and yes we will most certainly use them again. But not until we or somebody we know is going down that way.

STOP PRESS ... as at now (mid-late 2016), Organature seems to be charging a flat postage fee of $20!! Their website seems a bit iffy though. We did an order a few weeks back, and patiently waited for our products ... which never arrived!!! At least it wasn't billed to our credit card ... You may have to monitor and ring to follow up if you do an order ... and it doesn't show up!!

Good quality poor description – I bought an organature quilt cover recently. Fabric is very nice and quality is good but item was not as expected. 3 of the edges are finished with overlocked seam side exposed. Not the look I was after. Pictures are low resolution and don't really show this detail. Not too hard to fix if you have a sewing machine.

Organic Baby Bedding and Materials!!! – I purchased a baby bedroom package and could not be happier with every single piece of the package. From finishings on the cot that are safe and non-toxic, to the beautiful soft organic cotton used in the bedding (and the complimentary luxurious face washer). Communication was excellent and any questions were answered fully and promptly. I also… Read more

purchased organic cotton jersey which is beautiful and soft for making all sorts of items. I highly recommend this business.

Great products for avoiding the normal chemicals soup usually in bedding – I've just brought two organature winter weight cotton duvets and they are great. Last year we brought two low chemical beds from Organature and futons and mattress toppers. We have two girls with a rare medical condition where symptoms are triggered by many things including chemicals. Since moving to Organature products we have seem massive… Read more

improvements in sleep. Every time I've ring with questions Kayla has been awesome. I would highly recommend their products. Super low chemical Organic cotton beds can have a "smell" to it at first but on airing the smell dissipates fast. On the plus side I think most places use chemicals to mask the natural smell so appreciate how natural the Organature products are

Wonderful stuff – A set of beautiful new sheets was at the top of my list the last time I set off to Melbourne on a shopping trip. I found a beautiful Egyptian cotton sateen set in a popular linen store then got then home & washed them, then washed them again. Then soaked them in bicarb. Washed them in a super hot wash. Then again with more bicarb and essential… Read more

oil in the final rinse. Seven times in total, but nothing could get rid of the horrible chemical 'fragrance'. I decided that I didn't want to be inhaling whatever the chemical finish is on the sheets while I slept and although I always search out organic food I had never thought about organic linen and bedding before now. An internet search came up with Organature and like the previous reviewer I wish I'd come across them sooner. I have bought sheets, pillowcases and doona covers online and they all look, feel and smell wonderful. And they are around the same price as good quality chemical infested linen too. I can't wait to eventually replace all of my bedding with organic products. Free of chemical fragrance, reasonably priced, very prompt online delivery & a small free gift in every order I have received. Be aware that their 'white' shade is a creamier white compared to non organic products - but still blends in quite well in my all white bedroom

Excellent – I shouldve bought one earlier, i just love the feel of my quilt and it just smells so good. No actual scent but it smells fresh and clean. I feel so much better when i wake up in the mornings. Highly recommend. It is free from nasty chemicals, it feels great to sleep under and it comes in a choice of winter or summer weight so it can be used in… Read more ·  1

a warmer or cooler climate. Mine is a winter weight and i just love it. Its so snuggly and comfortable. It doesnt cause any perspiration like my old synthetic quilt. There are no cons to this product in my opinion.
