Ecosa Cot Mattress Review
The Ecosa Cot Mattress is an excellent cot mattress that uses an innovative design. It offers outstanding ventilation for infants and is well certified as non-toxic.
Purchase and delivery
The Ecosa Cot Mattress can be conveniently ordered online through the Ecosa website. Delivery is free and the mattress is available Australia wide (see delivery times in our ‘Delivery’ section below). The mattress arrives in a smart looking packaging box.
The Ecosa Cot Mattress itself presents nicely with a grey and white colour theme. It uses a similar style to the popular Ecosa Mattress, and its blue coloured brand tag gives it a touch of class.
Mattress construction
The outer cover of this mattress is made from a ‘3D Mesh’ and Tencel fabric. This cover feels durable and is noticeably well ventilated. This breathable cover should not only enhance infant respiration, but it should also help with temperature regulation.
This cover is also removable and washable, making it easy to keep clean. Removing the cover is easy, and the zip mechanism is strong and smooth.
This cover surrounds Ecosa’s ‘Woven Nestflow™ Core’ which is made from from food-grade polypropylene. This inner core is free of latex, adhesives, and chemicals. This contrasts to most other cot mattresses that use innersprings or foam as the main support structure.
This woven core contains two seperate parts. This allows you to adjust the firmness level of the mattress as your baby grows – the first ‘adjustable’ cot mattress that we have seen.
The first (thicker) piece is the more firm of the two. This is designed to be placed on top for your baby’s first months of life. As you baby grows, you have the option to place the second (thinner) piece on top to add a little extra comfort.
Just like the 3D Mesh and Tencel cover, this nest core allows excellent air circulation. It is also washable, allowing you to eliminate dust mites, allergens, and other bacteria.
This high level of ventilation (and hygiene) is very relevant in context of infant health. This unique construction may help to minimise the risk factors associated with SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome) and poor infant health.
Comfort and support
The Ecosa Cot Mattress cover and mattress core combine to give an ideal balance of support and pressure relief for infants and toddlers. Based on our testing, our team rated it as a ‘firm’ feel, which is our recommended firmness level for infants. It is worth noting here that this mattress meets the Australian standard for firmness (infant products): AS/NZS 8811.1-2013.
Not surprisingly, our team rated this mattress as a 8.5 / 10 firmness (with 10 being the firmest). Please note that our firmness ratings are just a guide and they do not necessarily relate to comfort.
The finer details
The Ecosa Cot Mattress has an impressive 100 night trial period, allowing you to get a full refund if you are not satisfied. This mattress also comes with a handy 5 year warranty. Due to its unique construction, the Ecosa Cot Mattress is lighter (9.4 kgs) than other similarly sized cot mattresses. This means that it will be easy to carry and easy to lift it in and out of the cot.
In terms of infant health, the ‘Woven Nestflow™ Core’ is formally certified as non-toxic and holds the Standard 100 certification. As mentioned earlier, it does not contain any adhesives or chemicals, making this mattress safe for infants, toddlers, and parents.
It’s worth noting also that the The Woven Nestflow™ Core is 100% recyclable. Unlike other mattresses, no foam or springs will go into landfill.
Available sizes
The Ecosa Cot Mattress is available in 7 different cot mattress sizes so it should accomodate all cot sizes. Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2024.
Final verdict
The Ecosa Cot Mattress is brilliantly designed for infant health and is one of the best cot mattresses on the Australian market. It is easy to clean, and offers excellent support for growing spines.

Designed for Peace of Mind
Our mattress is firm and supportive to help your little one sleep and maximise their development, while protecting against known risk factors. Sleep with ease knowing your baby is too.
How Does it Feel?
The Ecosa Cot Mattress is compliant with AS/NZS Voluntary Standard, which includes a test for optimal mattress firmness for infants.
Washable from Cover to Core
Accidents happen, but the Ecosa Cot Mattress has a removable, machine washable outer cover for easy cleanup.
For those bigger messes, you can clean the entire mattress in the shower, bath or under a garden hose to wash away all your troubles.
The Ecosa Cot Mattress cover is not waterproof, as this would eliminate breathability and increase overheating, which would not only be unsafe for your baby, but would create a breeding ground for bacteria. Our mattress covers are specifically designed for the woven core to give your baby the perfect balance of firmness and softness with extra peace of mind.
Completely Breathable
The Innovative Nestflow™ Core is designed to be incredibly breathable, and paired with the lightweight outer cover it will help regulate your baby’s temperature throughout the night.
From little things big things grow
The Ecosa Cot Mattress (like it’s grown-up version) has adjustable layers, designed to support your little one’s needs as they grow.
The Ecosa Cot Mattress is designed to be firm and supportive, but will adapt to your baby’s body. When they require something softer, simply swap the layers for ultimate comfort.
We’ve designed the Ecosa Cot Mattress adjustable so your baby can use it from 0 months all the way up to 4 years. This of course depends on your baby’s needs.
As your baby’s needs evolve, simply swap the two inner layers to create a softer mattress with the right amount of support.
Free from Nasties
The innovative Nestflow™ core is made from food-grade polypropylene, meaning no latex, adhesives, or chemical-filled nasties.
