Excellence Mattress

Excellence Mattress Review

The Excellence Mattress forms part of the Mattress Crafters’ collection that also includes the Boutique Mattress.

The Excellence Mattress has a comfortable, ‘medium-firm’ feel and offers excellent value in the mattress in a box market.

Purchase and delivery

The Excellence Mattress can be conveniently ordered online (through the Mattress Crafters’ website) and will be delivered to your door in a compact box.

Delivery is free to most metro areas, and delivery times will vary. ‘Same day’ delivery is available for Melbourne metropolitan customers if orders are placed before midday (weekdays only). For more details, see our ‘Delivery’ section further down.

The box arrived in fair condition and the mattress was easy to remove from its box and packaging. As usual, we recommend having two people available to unpack a mattress in a box.

As per our standard testing procedure, we allowed the product to decompress for 24 hours before testing.

Excellence Mattress

In terms of presentation, the Excellence Mattress has a ‘classic’ appearance. It sits 34cm high (which is slightly about average height for an innerspring mattress) and uses a black, grey and white colour theme.

The brand and model embroidery also gives the mattress a nice touch of class. 

Comfort and support

The top comfort layer of the Excellence Mattress includes a stretch knit fabric, plus layers of visco elastic memory foam, convoluted foam, and premium foam.

2.3 Excellence Mattress

These top layers create a foamy and comfortable sleeping surface. This section offers a good level of pressure relief and the mattress should suit all sleeping positions (side sleepers, back sleepers, and stomach sleepers). Understandably though, its suitability will vary between individuals.

Based on our testing, our team rated it as a ‘medium-firm’ feel and a 6.5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).

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.

Sitting below this comfort layer is a heavy duty 7 zone pocket spring system. This feels sturdy, responsive, and offers very good spinal support. It should accommodate people of all sizes.

This spring system also isolates sleep movements very well, so partner disturbance is minimal.

The Excellence Mattress 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

The Excellence Mattress has side handles on all sides of the mattress. This makes transporting and rotating the mattress much easier, and is one of only a few mattresses that we have tested to come with this number of side handles.

Edge support is reasonable, but is not as good as the Boutique Mattress (another mattress in the Mattress Crafters’ collection)

Excellence Mattress

The Excellence Mattress comes with a 100 night comfort guarantee.

The Excellence Mattress comes with a 100 night ‘comfort guarantee’. This means that you must try the mattress for at least 30 nights before the option to return the mattress (for a refund) comes into play.

Once you have tried the mattress for 30 nights, you then have the option to return the mattress within the following 70 day period.

It’s worth noting that the foam components in this mattress have been certified as non-toxic by SGS Australia, one of the world’s leading testing, inspection and certification company. The fabrics in this product have also been certified as non-toxic (OEKO-TEX®).

What bed base should I use?

As with most mattresses, we recommend the Excellence Mattress to be used with a sturdy bed frame with solid slats (such as the Chiropedic Bed Base). We also recommend that these slats are no longer than 8 cm apart.

A bed frame with ‘flexible’ (posture) slats may still be adequate, but please note that any unsupportive mattress foundation will void the warranty for this mattress.

Chiropedic Bed Base

According to Mattress Crafters, the Excellence Mattress can 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

This mattress is available in 5 sizes (king, queen, double, king single, and single size) so it should accommodate most sleeping situations.

Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2023.

Final verdict

The Excellence Mattress is a good mattress that is very well priced. It uses a sturdy spring system and comes with a 100 night comfort guarantee.

Bedbuyer’s rating:  4.1 / 5
