Stop looking for the best mattress topper, Australia!

Friends, it's time to stop searching for “latex mattress topper Australia” or “gel-infused memory foam mattress topper Australia.” Seriously, we have a better solution than memory foam toppers or latex toppers.

But before introducing our epic, world-class solution, let’s cover some basics…

What is a mattress topper?

It is a thick, cushioned removable layer that sits on top of your existing mattress, some even come with elastic straps. This is not to be confused with a mattress pad, a thin hygiene layer popped on top of the mattress to protect it from dust mites, bacteria and moisture. 

What does a mattress topper do?

You’re a Koala fan, so you’re a logical and great-looking person. Now that we know what a topper is, the next logical question is, “Why do I need a one?” 

When searching for the best mattress topper, Australians are shopping for two reasons: ☝️ to increase comfort and/or ✌️ extend the life of their current mattress.

Mattress toppers are generally thick and pudgy, so when placed on top of your mattress, they can help soften the firmness and even out any bumps, sagging or divots caused by years of use or damage.

Thicker mattress toppers can provide extra depth and cushioning to transform even an uncomfortable mattress into one fit for royalty. This means you can squeeze more life out of your mattress by popping a topper.

If you rely on a topper to hide many sins, it might be worth considering whether it's time to replace your mattress.

Looking for the best firm mattress, Australia?

Sure, buying a mattress topper is great if you’re looking to soften your mattress… but what if you’re searching for the best firm mattress in Australia? 

Here’s where our solution comes into play.

Our range of mattresses includes… wait for it… an in-built, flippable firmness layer, so you can choose between Medium-Firm and Firm. If you change your mind, just flip it back over again! 

This flippable firmness layer cuts out the middleman, meaning you won’t need to search for Australia’s best good quality mattress topper because it’s already built into your Koala mattress. 

We recommend using the Medium-Firm side for the first week as you settle into sleeping on your Koala mattress, but if you know you prefer a firmer mattress, flip it straight to the Firm side. These mattresses also feature foam layers designed for contouring and pressure relief to support a restful night’s sleep.

What is a mattress pad?

So we’ve got the plushness of a mattress topper covered off with our in-built flippable firmness layer, but what about the hygienic protection of a mattress pad? Hold our beer. 

Not only were our Koala Mattress, Calm As Mattress and Soul Mate Mattress designed with breathability in mind (more breathability = more hygienic), but the mattresses themselves include antimicrobial additives that assist in preventing the conditions that those pesky microscopic monsters love. 

TL;DR: we’ve made the mattress pad redundant by weaving antimicrobial goodness through our mattresses. Impressive, we know.
