Crown PostureAdvance Firm Review
The Crown PostureAdvance Firm is Australian made and is available to buy through Forty Winks. It has a sophisticated construction and is designed specifically to help with temperature regulation.
Purchase and delivery
This mattress can be ordered online through the Forty Winks website. It can also be purchased through any of Forty Winks’ stores across Australia.
Delivery is available Australia-wide but delivery fees (and times) do vary. Online delivery fees are based on your location from the nearest store, and delivery times will depend on stock availability. For more details, see our ‘Delivery’ section below.
The Crown PostureAdvance Firm presents with a simple, classic style. It uses a white and black colour theme and has a distinguishable comfort layer (pillow top). Its finishings and brand labelling demonstrate a high level of quality.
Comfort and support
The top surface of this mattress is made of a ‘SensICE™ fabric’ that is designed for cooling. This cover feels thick and durable, and feels cool to touch.
This cover sits over a wool blend quilt layer, a layer of graphite memory foam, and a nano micro pocket spring. This is followed by a high density foam layer and a 3D aerated pillow top spacer.
This comfort layer sounds fancy but it only offers a modest level of pressure relief in this firm variant. To this point, there is a slight hardness to it and is not overly comfortable.
This firm version should suit most back sleepers, but it may also be suitable for side sleepers and stomach sleepers. Understandably though, this suitability will vary between individuals.
We rated the Crown PostureAdvance Firm as a ‘extra firm’ feel and an 8.5 / 10 on the firmness scale. 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.
The spring system used in the Crown PostureAdvance Firm is an Australian made Titanium 7-Zone Pocketed Coil Spring System called PosturePractic™ Advance. This spring unit feels particularly sturdy, and overall back support is excellent.
The PosturePractic™ Advance system also isolates motion well, so partner disturbance is minimal.
The Crown PostureAdvance Firm responds nicely to normal sleep movements and we rated its level of responsiveness in the optimal zone. In basic terms, this means that changing sleep positions (and intimate activities) shouldn’t be any trouble.
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
In terms of build quality and craftsmanship, the Crown PostureAdvance Firm is excellent. Edge support is sound, thanks to a high density foam box wall and a strengthened perimeter edge. The mattress also comes with strong side handles to assist in rotation and transport.
In terms of after sales service, this mattress is well backed with a 10 year warranty.
What bed base should I use?
As with most mattresses, we recommend the Crown PostureAdvance Firm to be used with a solid bed frame (such as the Sleep Republic Pro Base), or a solid ensemble base (with the slats no longer than 8 cm apart).
A bed frame (with flexible slats) may still be adequate, but again, we strongly recommend that the distance between each slat is less than 8 cm. Use of an unsupportive mattress foundation will usually void the mattress warranty.
Sleep Republic Pro Base
Furthermore, we do not recommend the Crown PostureAdvance Firm to be used with an adjustable (electric) bed base. 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.
Available sizes
The Crown PostureAdvance Firm is available in all 7 sizes (super king, king, queen, double, king single, long single, and single) so it should suit all sleeping arrangements.
Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2021.
Final verdict
The Crown PostureAdvance Firm is a good mattress with a particularly firm feel. It has the quality and refinement to match it with most high end mattresses on the market, and should suit those who find it difficult regulating their sleep temperature.
Bedbuyer’s rating: 4.3 / 5

Features
- Minimal Partner Disturbance: unique comfort as it reduces motion transfer, meaning even if your partner tosses and turns during the night, you will still be able to sleep soundly without being disturbed
- SensICE™ Cover: Temperature plays a key part in the process of falling asleep. Our body needs to drop in temperature before we can start to doze off. So in order to quickly fall asleep, we need to find that temperature ‘sweet spot’. SensICE does just that! SensICE mattress textiles are hyper-conductive, they take heat away instantly, resulting in a comfortably cool effect
- Temperature Regulation: better airflow through the wool blend quilt and the inclusion of graphite memory foam and Memory Foam with infused gel particles allowing heat to be drawn more effectively from the body, significantly improving heat capacity, conductivity and thermal effusivity
- Pressure Relief: Memory foam with Gel Infused particles responds to your body’s weight and relieves pressure points, which in turn relieves discomfort through back aches and pains
- Wool Blend Quilt Layer: Woollen fabrics are natural and sustainable materials that have the added benfit of breathability in both the colder and warmer months. Wool is very soft, extremely durable and long lasting. Due to its insulating properties, we use it to ensure a breathable, more restful sleep
- PosturePractic™ Advance: Australian Made Titanium 7-Zone Pocketed Coil Spring System: The individual coils provide superior contour and support. It greatly reduces motion transfer and the zoning provides optimal support
- Nano Micro Pocket Spring: These fine wire coils contour to the sleepers individual body shape, whilst creating an airflow layer
- Strengthened Perimeter Edge: offers the sleeper a greater sleep surface allowing closer sleep to the edge of the mattress negating “the rolling out of the bed sensation”
