2nd Duck in the house – Isolation/restrictions no problem. Ordered our second Sleeping Duck on Saturday was delivered on Tuesday as promised. Purchased my mattress almost a year and half ago still as comfortable as the day we received it. The second purchase was for my teenage son. We all know how teenagers are not much to say, but must have done something right as a… Read more · 2
parent, as I am thanked every morning as his new bed is so comfortable. Even does the dishes without being asked to. Thanks again Sleeping Duck for your great product and efficient service.

LIKE SLEEPING ON A CLOUD – This mattress is the best i have ever slept on. I have back problems and osteoarthritis and this definitely helps with my pain. Most nights im sleeping right thru the night. The support is great and no sagging like some mattress’s have a habit of doing. Show details · 1
Perfect – It's not as firm as my other sleeping duck which is a queen and medium. Still good for a spare bed. Visitors are impressed with the mattress and had a awesome sleep in it. Show details · 1

Terrible after sale service – We request for a firmness adjustment for our mattress around mid December, 4 weeks later and no delivery. I've made two follow-up during this time and twice, no body got back to me with an update. Appalling!!! Show details
Could not try mattress as the fumes were toxic. SD said all the same and did not test it – Beware toxic fumes. The mattress was not even laid on so not worth one star Ordering and delivery was OK, but the mattress was full of toxic fumes. I was unable to remain in or near the bedroom. I were advised to unzip the mattress and air the foams outside. This we did for 7 days. I don't believe anyone could have slept on this mattress. Several… Read more
days after the mattress was returned to SD, our friends could smell the fumes emanating from an open door, some 9 metres away from the bedroom. It is now 12 days since the return. Despite constant airing, (and wiping slats with ti-tree oil) the room still smells of mattress fumes. SD refunded the money but did not want to know about or test the fumes. They would not exchange it for another, and stated all were the same. Another staff member cited differences in product off gassing. I don't believe anyone could have slept on this mattress. I did not even get to lie on the mattress.

Under 2 years old. Its had it! – Ok, it was comfortable when we got it and its ok now, 1 year 8 months in. BUT.....the bed is sagging massively both sides and I have turned it as specified. The foam top seems to lose its structure somewhat. I am not the smallest, but certainly not the biggest bloke at under 18 stone. My wife is under 12 stone. So, I have to say the product is not… Read more
what I expected it to be. I have sent sleeping duck images of my bed today to show them. Its has lost its shape quicker than any other bed I have owned. Like I said, I cant say its uncomfortable now, but you get used to it you know. I wonder if they will honour the guarantee? I shall let you know.
June 3rd 2018 Update: This bed does NOT last very long
In the beginning this bed was great. Comfortable, a massive improvement on our last bed and good value, or so we thought. After a year and a bit, lumps and bumps started appearing, despite having been religious in the turning regime. I was offered by sleeping duck, a replacement for the top foam. The top foam is indeed the problem. Basically, if you are any way heavy (Im 18 stone), it appears that the turning is pushing the thinner foam into a fold, which has difficulty in going away, as the material that encases the foam resists against the second layers encasement (all inside the main bed which is accessible via a zip and not particularly easy). The only way to remove the lumps is to take the whole thing apart and this works for a while. But I have noticed the materials between the foams are rubbing against each other and causing the lumps to be harder to remove. This is a factual account, not someone just moaning for the sake of it. My wife absolutely hates this bed now. We have had it for two and a half years and now it needs replacing. So, NOT so good value now in my mind. Sleeping duck have offered to replace the top foam, and perhaps I should have taken the offer, but this will not solve the long term issues. I expect a bed to last eight to ten years, I think that is fair an average these days, but the problems started within one and a half years. I am disappointed,and would not consider this company again. You get what you pay for and this bed is cheap. It offers great comfort at first but in our experience it does not last.

Purchased a KS in medium, unfortunately I found it was a bit too soft; called customer support received a firm replacement layer within 2 or 3 days. No questions asked, professional, courteous, could not hope for better service. Happy with the firm; edge support could be stiffer, but overall very satisfied. Show details · 1
Comfortable Mattress – Lovely, comfortable mattress much improved on my old one. I feel supported from edge to edge. I also liked delivery to door, though mattress is heavy the wheels on bottom of the box make it easy to manouver. One needs to heed warning on mattress (wrapped) to ensure room around for expansion. Edit update 10/2025 still great mattress to sleep on, no noticable difference from when new. Show details · 2
Graat suppprt for my growing teenage son – My son loves the new sleeping duck mattress. Gives him so much more support than his old store bought mattress. Only down side is it is now harder to get him up of a morning for his school or sports training Show details · 1
Feel like I am superman floating on air – The bed is super comfortable and provides excellent support. Getting an excellent sleep look forward to returning to bed. But one problem, do not want to get up in the morning. Show details · 1
Just a perfect mattress – Needed a new bed for the spare room for visitors, already had a Sleeping Duck mattress for us, so no contest, a Sleeping Duck for them. Very, very comfortable. Initially got sore hips with the medium mattress, (I had to sleep on it a few times) so I contacted Sleeping Duck and they sent me a soft insert, free of charge! Swapped out the medium insert (easy-peasy, undo two zips) and the bed is perfect. Thank you Sleeping Duck Show details · 1
Mattress – Is the most comfortable mattress I ever slept on the moment I laid down on sleeping ducks. Very Comfortable on the back, front and side positions. Highly recommend for sleepers to test it out for 3 months Show details · 1

Exceeded expectations – Had this mattress and base for nearly two months and cannot fault it. Very comfy and great support. My teenage son's back and shoulder aches and pains resolved completely after just 3 nights. We had a lot of rain over the school holidays, so the kids have been sitting on it a lot to watch TV and play games during the day. My son who sleeps on it… Read more · 1
is 190cm and 80kg - but it looks exactly the same as the day we unrolled it - no sagging, no pilling, nothing. Honestly, I was pretty skeptical about it at first but it's better than I expected.
Comfortable Sleep – I had a top range hard mattress. I woke each day aching. I’m 78 male. I sleep on my side and your medium mattress has worked wonders. I am a sound sleeper. The only problem is getting the best spot. I have to sleep around a stretched out cat. She loves it. My sister, brother-in-law and nephew all have their Ducks... Show details · 1
Comfortable – Comfortable support with no pressure points. Very happy with the bed. Sleep quality is good. No aches when I wake up. No sagging and firmness for side sleeping is perfect Show details · 1
Duck, Duck, Win! – Absolutely love The Duck! Sleep has improved, back aches dissipated and dont feel any movement from the other side of the bed. Have not slept this well for a long time. Have recommended widely. Show details · 1
Amazing Comfort – This is the first time in years my arthritis no longer wakes me needing to change position. My medium fitness appeared far softer than I expected, but I quickly realised this is only the topper, whilst there is really good firmness underneath. If I had any complaint, it would be that I find it a bit hotter to sleep on than my previous mattress, but it’s easily fixed by using less bedding on top. Show details · 1
Fabulous product – From purchasing product - too easy, to Price for product - absolutely worth it, to Delivery - spot on Assembly - you could not make this easier, to Looks - elegant yet simple, to Sleeping on - every night is so comfortable Rating- 10 out of 10 Show details · 1
A very good mattress – The ordering was simple straight forward, The delivery was before its due date by a very nice delivery man The instructions for opening were simple and easy to understand The mattress is very good to sleep on although for me I think I would have liked to try it slightly firmer The mattress to look at is let down by the piping/trim round the top… Read more · 1
edge which sticks up or out unevenly when the bed is made-up the trim sticks up and the bed looks like it is sunken in the middle . All in all a good product let down by something very simple to rectify
Restful slumber – No more pain and a restful nights sleep every night. Proper support and soft comfort. Lovely and cool to sleep on. What a great nights sleep. Thank you sleeping Duck. Show details · 1
Amazing – After hearing quite a few friends discussing the glowing benefits of this bed we listened and have to agree that this is the most comfortable bed we have purchased. My husband no longer has back stiffness and my only complaint is that he goes to bed earlier and gets up later! Good money well spent...Highly recommend! Show details · 1

The best mattress I’ve ever slept on – This mattress has improved my sleep pattern. It is so comfortable and supportive. I will never buy another brand of mattress. Love it. The price is very reasonable considering the quality Show details · 1
Sleeping so comfortably – Having had both hips replaced, I found this mattress extremely comfortable . No pressure points to keep me awake. No sagging in the middle and very easy to sit on side of bed without slipping off. Show details
A much needed realisation – The first thing I noticed was that I had dreams every night for the first week and I remembered more of the dreams the next day. The second thing I noticed was that I could sleep with my heels resting on the mattress. I have Fibromyalgia and many different conditions in my feet and sleeping with the back of my heels on the top of the mattress was… Read more
too painful. My only disappointment was that I had to change my pillow. I have neck and back issues which will cause daily headaches without the perfect pillow. I think I have found a workable solution though it took many headaches and restless nights to find it.
My 4 year old son now sleeps through the night!! – I bought the King Single Sleeping Duck for my 4 year old son. Before this he would wake every night and want to come into our bed. Since he has had this mattress he has hardly worn and sleeps all night!! If he does wakes, he asks me to now go into his bed beause he doesn't want to leave his mattress!! But like I said, this has rarely happened!! Highly recommended the purchase of the Sleeping Duck Mattress Show details
Such a great purchase – I couldn’t get over how comfortable the mattress was even all the way to the edge! It was so comfortable we ended up buying one for the rest of the family Show details
Sleep so well on my new Sleeping Duck Mattress – Mattress is extremely comfortable and supportive. I was having hip and lower back issues with my old mattress. These aches have now gone and I wake up in good shape. I haven't noticed any sagging at all. Show details
A vast improvement on my previous Sealy mattress – The buying experience easy, the price very competitive, unpacking the mattress was an adventure in itself and caused huge amusement (tinged with a little fear), the sleep quality is perfect. Show details
The Mattress is excellent!! – Bought it for my daughter - she loves it. I slept on it when she was away to see if all the good reviews are right, and it's soft but also very supportive. (it's a medium in firmness). I sleep on a Sleepmaker King, cost $3,700. The Sleeping Duck is more luxurious. My view is that Sleeping Duck is as good or better than the top of the range store… Read more
bought mattresses but they are half the price and have extraordinary after sales service. I will buy another one!!
Excellent product – Most comfortable mattress which gives me a good night rest and supportive for my sore back, able to sleep through night without waking up in discomfort and holding it firmess. Show details
Perfect mattress – Had this mattress for 6 weeks now and it is sensational. Bought it as a spare mattress as I work shift work and needed another place to sleep, not just for my sanity but for my wife’s too! Anyway basically I use it every sleep now, whether on night shift or days off on the weekends, it blows our Snooze mattress away and that mattress is only 8… Read more
months old itself. I went the medium option and although I’m tempted to try the free service to swap to a firm one, I feel it’s probably a waste of time as the comfort of the medium is devine. Never thought I’d find a mattress online at such a competitive price that is the best most comfortable mattress I’ve ever had. Will be buying another to replace our Snooze mattress. Do yourself a favour and get one, I think of all the time and stress over the years I’ve had shopping and trying out mattresses, Sleeping Duck online just blows that tradition out the water. So good, so happy :)
Like sleeping on a cloud – After a positive experience with our first Sleeping Duck mattress we bought for our eldest, we recently purchased another one for our youngest. It's by far, the best mattress we have ever owned. The kids sleep better and longer than ever. Our first one is great after 3 years of use and shows no obvious signs of wear or colaspse.

recommend the Medium for side sleepers. Its a shame the Kings were out of stock when we had to replace our own mattress as its clearly inferior to the SD.
The best purchase I have ever made – I'm 88 years old and I have never slept better. Since getting my Sleeping Duck mattress, I've noticed a reduction in leg swelling and back pain, my nights are lovely and warm too. I almost don't want to get out of bed in the mornings! It is supportive yet wonderfully comfortable, it was easy for my grandson to unpack and set up, and the… Read more · 1
convenience and prompt delivery was wonderful. I am glad that I took the chance on this mattress in a box, and I would certainly recommend it for anyone looking for a better night's sleep.
