Ecosa Review
A firm-first mattress that quickly conforms to the sleeper, engineered by Australia's top mattress-in-a-box brand for cool, supportive sleep.
The Ecosa is a magic bed. It feels almost too firm when you first lay down, then it magically softens and conforms to the sleeper.
Our reviewerA Firm Mattress That Softens Into Support
The Ecosa is the number one mattress in a box in Australia, built on research the company has put into sleep and the body. It's one of the firmer mattresses we've reviewed, rating a 7 out of 10 on our firmness scale, with an initial feel that softens and conforms to the sleeper after a moment.
That firmness translates into strong body support, and back sleepers in particular will enjoy it. A few side sleepers reported some arm soreness, so side sleepers considering the Ecosa might want to look at a slightly softer option, though a number still said they'd consider it.
Sinkage was minimal, just a 1-inch drop as a sleeper settles in, which is great for back sleepers looking for support without feeling like they're floating on top of the mattress.
The latex construction keeps things cooler than most memory foam beds, though some customers have reported it runs a bit hotter than other latex mattresses. Off-gassing was minimal, with only a mild smell on opening and a short wait before the mattress was ready to sleep on.
At $1,099 for a queen, roughly a hundred dollars less than competitor Greywing's $1,195, the Ecosa is one of the better values available in the Australian box-mattress market.
