Penny for your thoughts ?.
Hi Ryan, thanks for getting in touch!
Thought it was best to send you an email so we can discuss further.
Kind regards, the Bedbuyer team
I’m tossing between Silent Night Onyx, Cloud9 or Neoluxe Vantage Silver.
I just can’t decide!!! Could you recommend out of these 3. Thanks
Hi Georgia,
Definitely a tough call as all are very good mattresses. Something to keep in mind is that the Cloud 9 range is not available until late September (due to COVID restrictions in VIC) and depending on your location, there may be a delay on the others as well.
Let me know your location (post code/ suburb) and we can go from there.
Kind regards,
The Bedbuyer team
Hi, I live in Tasmania and am struggling with your top picks as none seem to be sold here. I would like to be able look before I purchase. Any recommendations?
Hi Natalie,
Happy to help – one of our top picks in our list here is the SleepyHead Swisstek CS range which is available at Beds R Us who have 6 locations in Tasmania – locations can be found on this link here.
Alternatively, you could also consider buying a ‘mattress in a box’ online. Most do free shipping to Tasmania, and you have a trial period whereby you can get a refund if you are not satisfied. These are very popular these days, especially in Tassie as retail stores are a bit limited. Our top ‘mattress in a box’ picks for 2020 can be found on this link here.
Hope that helps but let us know if you have any further queries.
The Bedbuyer team
After endlessly looking for what’s right and what’s not I decided to just ask you is they Emma mattress just as good without the extra dollars or is it actually worth spending that bit more and getting the cloud 9. As we are both in our 50s and I have osteoporosis & osteoarthritis and my husband has neck problems due to the pillow I expect but also suffers careel tunnel please advise what should we do. I never seem to get a response on these things can you please message me direct on clearskye@hotmail.com

Help me please!
I live in Melbourne & I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I’m in desperate need of a new mattress and a good nights sleep. Having to commit a to buy a new mattress without getting to try it first is so terrifying! After a week of online research I had to make a choice and went with a Sherman (full body hug) due to their fantastic reviews and 100 day return policy. It was delivered yesterday & sadly it’s definitely not plush/soft enough for me. I’m a side sleeper and I end up tossing and turning all night with sore shoulders when I find a mattress too hard. Can you please help recommend a mattress that’s going to be plush enough. I had also been considering the silent night London or onyx.
Hi Erin,
All the best with your upcoming new arrival and happy to help!
Sorry to hear that the Sherman (Full Body Hug) was not soft enough for you. As you said, you have the return/refund option to use there.
The one we would recommend at this point would be the Silent Night London (Plush). We found this to be softer and ‘lighter’ than the Sherman Mattress (Full Body Hug), and a really nice mattress overall. We know that purchasing without trying is scary but we feel that this should be soft enough for you. To claim our special price, click here and use the code BEDBUYER100 at checkout.
Hope that helps but please don’t hesitate if you have any further queries.
The Bedbuyer team
Thank you so much for your response! Would you recommend the Silent night London (plush) over the Slumberland Dorset? (Another option that I have recently came across) If it helps I would NEVER say a mattress is too soft.
Our pleasure Erin!
We would definitely lean towards the Silent Night London. The Dorset is a nice, soft mattress but the London would be a bit softer and a better mattress overall. We have tested over 1500 mattresses and they really don’t come much softer than the Silent Night London (Plush).
Hope that helps but please let us know how it all goes!

Hi there,
We are in Perth and none of your recommendations seem to be relevant to us here. Could you please advise what you recommend based on the stores here in Perth.
Thanks, Emma
Hi Emma,
Happy to help. All of the mattresses listed in this list (except the Sherman Mattress) can be ordered and delivered to Perth.
Furthermore, most of these mattresses (except the Cloud 9 range, Sherman, Crown Hotels, Eco Kids) can be tried out in-store in Perth which would be much the same situation for most of Australia.
Hope that clarifies things but please let us know if you need any further assistance.

Does the silent night onyx come as an ensemble in queen?
And is it available in Maitland NSW?
Hi Franz,
To answer your question, the Silent Night Onyx only refers to the mattress itself. Prices for mattresses don’t usually include a bed base.
Delivery to your location should be possible, but we will have to get a delivery quote from Beds n Dreams as their closest store is in Gosford (about an hour away). Just let us know what firmness level you would like (e.g. medium) and we can check stock and get a delivery cost for you. Alternatively, you could visit the Gosford store if you’re up for a drive. In that case, you can try each version out to see what feels best, and browse their range of bed bases in-store.
In terms of a bed base, due to your location it will be more practical and cost effective to order online. Depending on what style bed base you are after, the Naptime Base or the Sleep Republic Pro Base are both good quality and great value. You can purchase these online and they come with free delivery.
Hope that helps but please don’t hesitate if you have any further queries.

Hi there,
I m interested in the silent night onyx after seeing your review! Can I please know if the wood slat base would be fine for it？i have the Jessica Bed currently. Thank you！
Hi Kay,
Thanks for your interest in the Silent Night Onyx Mattress!
The Jessica Bed (from Fantastic Furniture) has solid wood slats and should be totally adequate for the Silent Night Onyx Mattress.
Hope that helps but please don’t hesitate if you have any further queries.
