We earn advertising and referral fees from many of the brands we rank, and those fees affect where they appear.

Top3 Mattress compares mattresses sold in Australia, and we make our money when a reader buys through one of our links. Brands pay us advertising and referral fees, and those arrangements affect which mattresses we cover and how high they sit in our rankings. Some mattresses here have no arrangement with us at all.

Every mattress is scored against the same ten published criteria, and each of the ten scores is shown alongside the total. What those criteria measure, and how the total is set, are laid out on our How we rate page. The work behind the scores is desk work: we read published specifications, warranty documents and trial terms, and cross-check them against each manufacturer's own pages. We do not buy these mattresses and sleep on them, and no score here comes from in-home testing.

We do not cover every mattress sold in Australia, and the ones we can earn a commission on are more likely to be among the ones we do cover. Prices, trial lengths and warranty terms change without notice, so check the brand's own page before you buy. A ranking here is not a guarantee about a product and not an endorsement of it. Our full terms are set out in the Terms of use.

Head to head

Origin LumbarCloud Mattress vs Sleeping Duck

Both are premium hybrids with washable covers, so the split is adjustability against construction. Sleeping Duck lets you set each side of the bed separately and swap foam inside the trial. The LumbarCloud fixes the feel at medium-plush but adds a second spring layer, a latex comfort layer and a quilted pillowtop, and carries fifteen years against Sleeping Duck’s ten. If you sleep alone and know what you like, the extra layers are the better use of the money.

Firmness and construction are listed as differences, not as a winner — which one suits you depends on how you sleep, not on which is better made.

Pros and cons, side by side

Origin LumbarCloud Mattress

Pros

  • Two separate spring layers — adaptive micro coils over a seven-zone pocket core
  • A latex comfort layer adds rebound that memory foam alone does not have
  • 15-year warranty, five years past the standard ten-year term
  • 120-night trial with a money-back guarantee; returned mattresses are donated

Cons

  • Queen sits at $2,089, the top of this list rather than the middle
  • The edge gives way when you sit on it — buyers mention this repeatedly
  • Some rural postcodes attract a $175 delivery fee

Sleeping Duck

Pros

  • Each side can be a different firmness, and a half-half queen costs the same $1,649 as a single-firmness one
  • Firmness is changed by swapping foam pads at home — free and unlimited during the 100 nights, in soft, medium, firm or extra firm
  • The cover and both foam layers lift out and can be replaced individually, so one worn part does not mean a new mattress
  • A perimeter zone of high-strength steel springs, so the edge holds when you sit on it

Cons

  • A queen is $1,649 — $290 more than Emma and $650 more than Koala
  • A 100-night guarantee, the same as Ecosa and shorter than Newentor, Koala, Origin, Onebed and Emma; returns are capped at two mattresses per household
  • Putting it on a sprung or adjustable base voids the 10-year warranty, as do slats more than 12 cm apart
  • The warranty sets a 140 kg limit per sleeper and only counts sagging deeper than 30 mm as a defect
