Macoda Mattress Review
The Macoda Mattress is beautifully comfortable and was once again awarded Australia’s ‘Best Comfort’ Mattress in a Box in 2020. It is a great option for those looking for a softer feel mattress, at an affordable price.
Like other mattress in a box products, the Macoda Mattress can be simply ordered online, and it will arrive at your door in a compact box (see prices below). Delivery times are fast (also see below) and it was relatively easy to remove from its packaging. We allowed it to decompress for 24 hours before we started our testing.
The mattress presents with a rather ‘funky’ appearance, using a characteristic white and royal blue colour combination. Its brand name embroidery also gives it a nice touch of class.
The cover of this mattress consists of a bamboo fabric and ‘quilting foam’. It has a network of diagonal lines (that form small ridges over the top surface), and feels smooth and luxurious. It is possibly our favourite ‘top cover’ in the bed in a box market.
You could say that Macoda has nailed the term ‘affordable luxury’.
This top cover sits over comfort layers of premium latex, gel-infused memory foam, and a high density support foam. This comfort layer is incredibly comfortable, and absorbs body weight smoothly. It is worth noting here that the Macoda Mattress is ‘customisable’, meaning that you can you can adjust the firmness of the mattress by flipping its top foam layers.
The ‘default’ configuration that the mattress arrives in (latex on top) is the version that we liked the most. With this in mind, you may not need to play around with the foam layers. If you are feeling a bit adventurous, the configuration with memory foam on top still feels comfortable, just a little more ‘spongy’.
Although each configuration feels slightly different, we didn’t detect much difference in ‘firmness’. Our team rated both configurations as a ‘soft-medium’ feel and a 4.5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest):
Switching the foam layers is reasonably straight forward, and this is made easier with a strong zip mechanism. Each comfort layer also has a protective covering of fabric, demonstrating Macoda’s attention to detail.
The main support structure of the Macoda Mattress is a 5 zone pocket spring system. This feels sturdy and provides very good spinal support. It has a good level of responsiveness, so moving into different positions during sleep is no trouble. The sides of the mattress have convenient handles which felt strong and durable, and it made carrying the mattress much easier.
It is also worth noting that the Macoda Mattress is well certified as non-toxic and comes with a solid 100 night trial period and a 10 year warranty.
This mattress is available in 5 sizes (king, queen, double, king single, and single size) so it should accommodate most bedroom arrangements. Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2020.
Final verdict
The Macoda Mattress is a lovely mattress and a great buy for those who prefer a softer feel. It has a level of comfort that is unmatched in the mattress in a box market, and is a worthy award winner in 2020. You could say that Macoda has nailed the term ‘affordable luxury’.

Sleep cool
The layer of cloud like memory foam is infused with thousands of cooling gel beads, which are activated by your body temperature to make sure you stop sleeping hot.
Hybrid comfort
Our hybrid mattress combines foam and pocket springs to provide a level of comfort miles above a traditional spring mattress and support that pure foam mattresses just aren’t capable of.
Responsive
We’re bringing the bounce back to the bedroom. With a supportive layer of latex, you’ll get just the right amount of responsiveness and cushioning from your bed, without the sinking feeling.
Soft, silky & luxurious bamboo
Bamboo wicks moisture, to ensure you and your mattress stay feeling fresh. It’s also highly breathable, super soft and one of the most eco-friendly fabrics on the planet.
Targeted pressure relief
By conforming to your body, the Macoda alleviates pressure where it’s needed most, and works to align the spine. A perfect mattress for side sleepers, back sleepers and everything in between.
No partner disturbance
Say goodbye. A foundation of hundreds of independent pocket springs means motion doesn’t transfer across the mattress. Less tossing and turning, more deep sleeping.
Zoned support
The Macoda mattress has 5 unique zones that target different areas of your body. More support for where you need it, more comfort where you dont. A firm edge support keeps you where you should be night after night.
Hypoallergenic
Our natural latex layer is something you can feel good on, and feel good about. Latex is hypoallergenic, resistant to bedroom nasties like dust mites and mould. Breathable and fresh, you can sleep healthy and happy.
Durability
High quality polyurethane foam provides support and durability you can rely on. By preventing sagging of the mattress, this layer will ensure great sleep for years.
Macoda Pocket Springs
Weight distribution of the human body isn’t a simple thing, so your mattresses shouldn’t be either. With five different zones of support, areas of the body that need more get exactly that, which in turn helps to ensure spinal alignment for a therapeutic sleep. Macoda’s 5-Zone system means you’re always getting the support you need where you need it.
The Macoda Mattress is perfect straight out of the box with a supportive yet soft-medium feel. However, we understand not everyone sleeps the same, so we put the power in your hands. With adjustable firmness, all you need to do is unzip and flip to get your perfect sleep.
The Macoda Mattress has a completely unique design, allowing you to change the comfort setting of your bed in the comfort of your own home. The white top of the mattress can be unzipped and removed, revealing two foam inserts. By flipping these inserts, your mattress can adjust between a soft, medium and firm comfort setting in a couple of minutes.
A foundation of hundreds of independent pocket springs provide superior quality and a level of support and comfort beyond that of full foam mattresses. With extra firm edges, there’ll be no more dreaded side sag or worrying about rolling off your bed in the middle of the night.
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.
