Eva Mattress Review
The Eva Mattress has only been available for several years, but it has skyrocketed to become one of the most popular online mattresses in Australia. It is a great ‘all-rounder’ that offers excellent value.
As with other mattress in a box products, the Eva Mattress can be ordered online and it will arrive at your door in a compact box. Eva offers free and fast delivery, Australia-wide (except to the Northern Territory).
The box is relatively heavy, due to Eva’s robust pocket spring system. Care is required when moving and unpacking the box as it can ‘pop out’ quickly from its packaging. Having said that, removing the mattress from its box and packaging is straight forward and we allowed it to decompress for 24 hours before conducting our testing.
A great all-rounder that offers excellent value.
The top comfort layer of the Eva Mattress layer consists of memory foam, latex, and a high density foam. The combination of these layers give a ‘foamy’ yet comfortable sleeping surface, and it should offer enough pressure relief for most people. We would classify this mattress as a ‘medium – firm’ feel. We rated it a 7 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest):
This comfort layer sits over a 5 zone pocket spring system that feels solid and robust. It has an impressive 400kg weight limit (Queen size) so it should accommodate people of all sizes. The mattress offers outstanding overall spinal support, with no obvious dipping or sagging.
The mattress is nicely constructed, and build quality is very good. Edge support is sound and it has strong side handles which will make it much easier to carry and rotate. As we said earlier, the Eva Mattress is quite heavy (55kgs, Queen size).
Overall, the Eva Mattress is a great buy. It has a nice balance of comfort and support, and is well backed with a 120 night trial period. It is also well certified as non-toxic, so you can feel confident that it is safe it bring into your home. Here are our ratings for each category:

Polyester Cover (White layer)
Our 100% polyester cover provides a durable and breathable surface.
Gel Memory Foam (Blue layer)
Infused with millions of gel beads to maintain perfect temperature through the night, this material adapts to your body to redistribute heat and offer pressure relief.
Natural Latex (Green layer)
Eva’s latex is naturally dust-mite resistant and antimicrobial. The open cell and pinhole structure allows it to flex and breathe.

Density foam lends the mattress its perfect degree of firmness for ultimate comfort and support.
5 Zone Pocket Springs
Pocket springs minimise partner disturbance so your slumber (or your co-sleepers) isn’t affected by tossing and turning.
Strong Edge Support
Supported by robust springs along its side pockets, an Eva mattress makes it near-impossible to fall out of bed or sink down when banished to the mattresses edge by your partner, cat or sleeping habits.
Unparalleled support Our unique combination of micro and pocket springs provide support where it matters. Our 5 zone pocket springs provide optimal support from head to toe ensuring the body is properly aligned, no matter the sleeping position. Keeping you cool Firmness Level Based on our research, most people prefer a mattress that is firm but not too hard. Eva mattress is a medium firm mattress which puts it in the region of a 7-8 out of 10 with 1 being very soft and 10 being very hard. This is the ideal firmness for a supportive sleep.
The open structure allows air to circulate freely thus providing a cooler sleep. In contrast, a full block of foam acts as a barrier to ventilation and traps heat in it. This makes the mattress hot, especially during the Australian summer!
120 night risk-free trial
Your trial starts the day you receive your Eva Mattress. Most will love it immediately but it’s also normal for some to need a little more time to know your mattress. We want you to sleep, dream and play on your Eva Mattress before making up your mind. If you don’t absolutely love your Eva Mattress, we’ll come pick it up and give you a full refund. If you’re based in a rural area, we’ll get you to send your mattress back to the nearest depot.
Eva Mattress – A Mattress for all Surfaces
The Eva Mattress works on any of the following foundations. You’ll just need to ensure that the slats are evenly spaced for a smooth and even sleep.
Please note: We don’t generally recommend mattress in a box products to go on an ‘adjustable base’ (a base that can be angled via a remote control). If a mattress in a box product is placed on an adjustable base, it is recommended that a person/s be lying on the mattress (and base) whilst making positional adjustments. We generally recommend a mattress in a box product to go on a solid ensemble base, or a slat base. If you have any queries about bed bases, please contact us.
We have King Size bases (x2) which have metal struts 60 mm running the length of the base and 120 mm running across each. Would these be suitable for the EVA mattress?
How firm is the EVA mattress?
Hi Rod,
It might be easier to answer your question if you could send us photo/s of your current bed base? Just email them to hello@bedbuyer.com.au
The Eva Mattress is a ‘medium / firm’ feel – about 7 / 10 firmness (with 10 being the firmest).
Kind regards,

Hi,
Can’t decide between the Eva and the Sleep republic. I suffer from lower back pain (and sleep on back and side)..
Which one would you recommend?
Oz
Hi Oz,
It sounds like both would be suitable but based on what you said, I would lean towards the Sleep Republic Mattress. It is slightly softer than the Eva Mattress and may be better for a side and back sleeper.
Let us know if you have any further questions.
Kind regards,
The Bedbuyer team
Hi,
I’m looking to purchase a mattress and have been juggling between Eva, Sleeping duck and Sherman (happy to consider other bed in a box items). Main concern is heat at night. Any recommendations?
Thanks
Hi Madeleine,
Heat while sleeping is a tricky one as there are many factors that influence sleep temperature.
Based on our testing and customer feedback, the Eva Mattress and Sleep Republic Mattress are both well designed in terms of ventilation and cooling. Both have spring systems that allow good air flow, as well as breathable comfort materials.
Hope that helps but let us know if you have any further queries.

Can I ask where Eva mattress is manufactured? I am tossing up between Eva & Emma mattresses which both suit my budget, I weight 50kg, my current mattress has a large dip in it where I prop up in bed to read. I would like a mattress that would retain it’s shape but still be comfortable and not too firm.
Hi Julie,
The Eva Mattress is made responsibly in China. Almost all mattress in a box (out of 120 products that we have tested) are made overseas.
Based on what you mentioned, the Sleep Republic Mattress would be a really nice one for you – lovely medium-firm feel and very comfortable. The Eva Mattress would also be one to consider.
Hope that helps but please let us know if you have any further queries.
