Purchase and delivery
As with other mattresses in a box, you can order the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress online (through the Origin website) and it will be delivered to your door.
Delivery of the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is free and it can be delivered to anywhere in Australia. A typical delivery time is 5-11 business days, depending on your location.
Removing the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress from its packaging should take around 10-15 minutes. As always, we recommend having two people available to unpack a mattress in a box.
Keep in mind that there will be a substantial amount of packaging (cardboard and plastic) to dispose of. So, some planning may be required along with plenty of bin space.
As per our standard testing process, we gave the mattress 24 hours to decompress before we conducted our testing.
The Origin LumbarCloud Mattress presents well with a modern, stylish appearance. It sits 33cm high which is well within the normal range for an innerspring mattress.
The mattress uses a white and navy blue colour theme as well a product label at the base.
Along with the mattress, the box includes an information booklet.
Mattress construction
As we mentioned above, the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is an innerspring mattress and contains a sophisticated comfort layer.
1. IceSilk Tencel™
The top cover of the mattress is made of a luxurious fabric that is sourced from sustainable wood pulp. This fabric is designed to feel soft and to offer a high level of cooling and breathability.
2. Bamboo-Infused Australian Wool
This wool blend is made with organic, responsibly-sourced materials. The micro-threaded design may help to increase air flow and breathability.
3. Graphite Diamond™ Latex Foam
This layer is made of 100% Natural Latex which has been improved with a Graphite Diamond™ infusion. This infused Graphite, provides 15% more cooling than traditional latex, and can help to dissipate body heat deeper and away from the surface of the mattress.
4. Proprietary HexaGrid™ Ultra
Improving on the award-winning HexaGrid™ and HexaGrid™ Plus, the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress features the HexaGrid™ Ultra, which brings high levels of temperature regulation, comfort, and deep tissue support.
This layer is made with a specialised polymer and cooling gel blend.
5. ComfortCloud™ Fibre
Made with a proprietary blend of cooling microfibres, this additional layer provides a buffer between the foam and spring layers, and allows heat to dissipate quickly into the deeper layers of the mattress.
This layer contributes to additional levels of cooling and support, throughout the entire mattress.
6. ErgoCoil Max™ Titanium Microsprings
These microsprings are made from premium-grade, elastic titanium that are wrapped in soft, breathable fabric pockets. These tiny springs respond cleverly to different sleep movements, and help to enhance comfort and support.
7. Bamboo-Infused Motion Isolation Foam
This layer is made of Memory Foam infused with bamboo particles. This open-cell technology has the benefit of providing the support of memory foam, and the cooling properties of bamboo.
8. 7-Zone ComfortPlus™ Titanium Springs
The main support system of the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is made up of aerospace-grade, titanium coils. These coils are twice-tempered and coiled at different tensions.
Origin has added an additional ComfortPlus™ cap on top to increase deep comfort and support.
9. D-4 Edge Support
This perimeter enhancement is made with high-quality foam that is four times more dense than typical foam.
Comfort and support
The IceSilk Tencel™ cover feels lovely and has a silky, smooth feel. It is also cool to touch, reinforcing its potential to minimise heat during sleep.
This top cover is a little uneven due to the stitching pattern but with sheets and/or a mattress protector, this shouldn’t be too noticeable.
The comfort layers combine to produce a rather dense, spongy feel. Nevertheless, the mattress absorbs body weight evenly and should offer enough pressure relief for most people.
This mattress should suit all sleeping positions (side sleepers, back sleepers, and stomach sleepers), but understandably its suitability may vary between individuals.
When it comes to a specific firmness rating, all of our reviewers agreed that this mattress has a medium-firm feel. By majority vote, we settled on a 7.5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).
Firmness rating
Please note that our firmness ratings are just a guide and they do not necessarily relate to comfort.
Furthermore, our firmness ratings are assigned based on Bedbuyer’s testing process and these may differ from firmness ratings given by individual companies. Mattress firmness will also vary depending on the type of bed base used.
We tested the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress on the Chiropedic Bed Base which is a good quality bed base with rigid slats.
The titanium springs on this mattress feel strong and responsive. They should provide excellent back support for most people and we certainly didn’t detect any sagging or dipping.
Based on the quality of these titanium springs, we would expect this mattress to accommodate people of all sizes.
The Origin LumbarCloud Mattress responds beautifully to normal sleep movements and we rated its level of responsiveness as optimal. In basic terms, this means that changing sleep positions (and intimate activities) shouldn’t be any trouble.
Responsiveness
Please note that our responsiveness scales are just a guide and preferred responsiveness levels will vary between individuals. It’s worth noting also that innerspring mattresses are generally more responsive than foam mattresses.
The finer details
The overall build quality of the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is excellent. The quality of the foams and fabrics is of a high standard, as is the quality of the stitching and finishings.
The titanium springs on this mattress feel strong and responsive.
Even though the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is an innerspring mattress, the mattress isolates motion quite well. So, a restless partner shouldn’t cause too much disruption.
With that said, motion transfer may vary. A larger mattress (e.g. king size) will usually involve lower amounts of motion transfer. Partner disturbance will also depend on the size of the occupants of the bed.
As with all other Origin mattresses, the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress comes with side handles. These handles are attached to the mattress strongly and are easy to use. They are positioned vertically and are positioned fairly close to each corner.
Side handles will almost always make moving or transporting a mattress easier, so credit to Origin for including these in all of their mattresses.
The D-4 Edge support design produces a firm, bouncy edge that should provides reliable strength during sleep and sitting activities. In other words, the edge support of this mattress is very respectable.
It’s worth noting here that the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress holds both CertiPUR-US® and OEKO-TEX® certifications. These certifications indicate that the foams and fabrics have been tested for harmful substances, and are safe for babies and toddlers.
What bed base should I use?
As with most mattresses, we recommend the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress to be used on a bed base with flat panel slats such as the Koala Paddington Bed Base.
A bed base with solid slats (with slats no longer than 8 cm apart) such as the Chiropedic Bed Base, would also be very suitable.
We would advise against using a bed base with flexible (posture) slats as this type of base may not provide adequate support. Ultimately, the use of an unsupportive mattress foundation will void the mattress warranty.
We don’t recommend the Origin LumbarCloud Mattress to be used with an adjustable (electric) bed base as this may cause damage to the mattress components. Here is our full list of mattresses that are compatible with an adjustable bed base.
It’s worth noting here that mattress firmness, performance, and durability will vary with different bed bases.
Trial period and warranty
The Origin LumbarCloud Mattress comes with a 120 night trial period, which is slightly superior to a typical trial period in the online mattress market.
This trial period means that you can return the mattress for a refund if you are not satisfied (conditions do apply).
This mattress also comes with a 15 year warranty to cover any faulty materials or workmanship. This warranty duration is also superior in comparison to the warranties of similarly priced products.
Available sizes
This mattress is available in 5 sizes (king, queen, double, king single, and single) so it should accommodate most adult sleeping arrangements.
Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2024.
Final verdict
The Origin LumbarCloud Mattress presents an impressive, all-round package. Although we wouldn’t describe it as ‘cloud-like’, its levels of back support and quality are exemplary.
Its trial period, warranty, and non-toxic certifications are also noteworthy.

Our IceSilk Tencel is incredibly cooling to the touch, and is specially quilted to provide ultimate plush comfort. The luxurious pillowtop layer is made with sustainably-sourced wood pulp, and its soft, buttery texture feels like silk against your skin. It’s like sleeping on a cloud!
2. Bamboo-Infused Australian Wool 🍃
This is our thickest Wool layer yet – we use Organic and responsibly-sourced wool that’s good for you, and good for the planet. Wool has natural moisture-wicking properties, which helps regulate temperature and increase comfort. Our proprietary wool blend is also Micro-Weaved to increase air flow and breathability.
3. [NEW!] Graphite Diamond™ Latex Foam 🍃
Latex is naturally soft and provides buoyant support for that cloud-like comfort. We’ve taken 100% Natural Latex and improved it with a Graphite Diamond™ infusion. With a high concentration of Infused Graphite, this provides 15% more cooling than traditional latex, and helps dissipate your body heat deeper and away from the surface of the mattress.
4. [NEW!] Proprietary HexaGrid™ Ultra
Improving on our award-winning HexaGrid™, and HexaGrid™ Plus, LumbarCloud features the HexaGrid™ Ultra, which brings extreme levels of temperature regulation, comfort, and deep tissue support. Made with a specialized polymer and cooling gel blend.

Made with a proprietary blend of cooling microfibers, this additional layer provides a buffer between the foam and spring layers, and allows heat to dissipate quickly into the deeper layers of the mattress. This means additional levels of cooling and support, throughout the entire mattress.
6. ErgoCoil Max™ Titanium MicroSprings
Made from premium-quality, highly durable, high-tensile titanium, each MicroSpring is individually encased in a soft, breathable fabric pocket. This layer is hyper-responsive and ergonomically-designed to conform to the natural curves of your body, while providing motion isolation and joint support.
7. Bamboo-Infused Motion Isolation Foam 🍃
We improved traditional Memory Foam by infusing it with bamboo particles. This open-cell technology has the benefit of providing the support of memory foam, and the cooling factor of bamboo.
8. [NEW!] 7-Zone ComfortPlus™ Titanium Springs 🍃
Made with same titanium used in the aerospace industry, these springs are twice-tempered and coiled at different tensions. While they are 2 times as durable as regular springs, we’ve added an additional ComfortPlus™ cap on top, to increase the deep comfort and support.
9. [NEW!] D-4 Edge Support
To hold all the mattress layers together, we use a High-Density Foam that is 4 times as dense as the industry’s average. This means you can sit comfortably on the edge of your bed without experiencing that dreaded mattress sag.

Tested & Designed With The Orthopaedic Advisory Council
The Origin LumbarCloud Mattress is the result of a collaboration with the Orthopaedic Advisory Council (OAC).
The LumbarCloud™ mattress was born from this collaboration, using a scientific foundation to create a truly superior mattress that maximises spinal alignment, comfort & sleep quality.
The combined R&D has given rise to technologies like ComfortCloud™, HexaGrid Plus™ and ComfortPlus™ Titanium Springs and others.

Our bamboo-infused wool is micro-threaded to increase air flow & breathability. Perfect at keeping you comfortably warm or cool.
Ultimate Softness
Our mattresses are incredibly comfortable for a reason. Wool allows you to sink comfortably for the perfect night’s sleep
Perfect Moisture Regulation
Our wool blend actively works to keep you dry and comfortable throughout the night by absorbing and releasing moisture, a crucial contributor to a comfortable sleep environment.
Hypoallergenic and safe for all
Our wool blend is organic and naturally hypoallergenic. Wool produces fewer dust particles, absorbs moisture to fight off dust mites, and absorbs VOCs
The Perfect Spring Didn’t Exist, So We Invented It
Engineered with twice-tempered steel springs, making each spring unbelievably sturdy and durable – yet so fine that you can’t tell they’re there.
This novel dual-stage coil system allows our springs to adjust their resistance based on the weight placed upon them – providing tailored pressure relief and maintaining ideal spinal alignment.
Perfect spring count for ultimate comfort
Our Hybrid mattresses feature up to 3,000 individually cased steel springs, ensuring the highest possible comfort and spinal alignment in any mattress
Meticulously crafted for soothing pressure relief
Each spring is crafted so the top half is thinner than the bottom half. This means that heavier parts of the body will sink deeper into the mattress and receive greater support, while lighter areas receive gentler support.
Anti motion transfer
Our spring’s unique shape compresses inwards, limiting transfer of movement and ensures deep sleep every night.
Deep Pressure Relief From Every Angle
The cloud-shaped stitching on the surface which allows the mattress to hug your body from all angles.
This “big hug” distributes your weight along a larger surface area, ensuring your back, hip and shoulders stay pressure-free.
Unlike flat mattresses which put more stress on your joints.
SmartClimatePro™ Cooling System
For deep, restful sleep, your mattress temperature has to be just right. Not too cold, nor to warm.
With this in mind, every layer of the LumbarCloud™ is carefully calibrated to keep your body at the optimal sleeping temperature.
Sleep Benefits
The Benefits of Deep Sleep
Deep sleep is crucial to good health – it improves mood & overall health, reduces risk of illness and keeps your mind sharp. And research has shown that the ideal temperature to maximise deep sleep is ~18°C
The Problem
Your body naturally drops its core temperature at night in an attempt to get deeper sleep. But modern mattresses are almost always too warm – hurting this natural process
The Solution
Using graphite, the Origin LumbarCloud is able to keep you within the optimal sleep temperature almost twice as long as other mattresses, leading to an average increase in deep sleep of ~84%
