Purchase and delivery
As with other mattresses in a box, you can order the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress online (through the Zeek website).
Delivery of the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress is free and it can be delivered to anywhere in Australia. Delivery times are typically 5-9 business days for metropolitan areas, and up to 14 business days for rural and remote locations.
For more details about delivery, see our Delivery information section further down.
In terms of pure aesthetics, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress presents well with a modern yet funky appearance. It sits 35cm high which is slightly higher than an average height (of around 30cm).
The mattress uses a white, grey, orange, and blue colour theme with product name embroidery on the base.
Mattress construction
As we touched on above, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress is a true hybrid mattress. It contains a number of foam components and a spring system.
1. Copper Tencel Fabric
The top cover of this mattress is made with a Copper Tencel Fabric that may help with temperature regulation and breathability.
This cover feels smooth and silky and has a distinct cooling sensation.
2. Copper Air Memory Foam
Underneath the top cover sits a layer of Copper Air Memory Foam. This foam has special pressure relieving properties and is designed to enhance comfort during sleep.
3. Transition Foam Layer
This Transition Foam layer helps to deliver targeted support and comfort, whilst promoting optimal spinal alignment.
4. 7-Zone Graphite Foam
Sitting just above the spring unit is a layer of 7-Zone Graphite Foam. This graphite infused foam has thermal regulating properties to ensure you don’t overheat during sleep.
5. 7-Zone Pocket Spring System
This advanced spring system offers targeted support with reduced pressure on muscles and joints.
This spring system is also designed to reduce motion transfer and enhance durability of the mattress.
6. Foam Box Edge Support
The special foam box edge design allows each person to use the entire surface of mattress. A firm edge also makes sitting on the mattress edge more supportive.
7. Base Foam Layer
This layer sits under the spring system and provides a cushioning base layer.
Comfort and support
The Copper Tencel Fabric cover does feel cool to touch, reinforcing its capacity to minimise heat during sleep.
In terms of feel, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress has a comfortable, spongy feel that moulds to your body nicely. It offers plenty of pressure relief and absorbs body weight evenly.
This mattress should suit all sleeping positions (side sleepers, back sleepers, and stomach sleepers), but understandably its suitability may vary between individuals. We found it particularly comfortable in the side lying position.
When it comes to a specific firmness rating, our reviewers agreed that this mattress has a medium feel. We settled on a 5 / 10 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest).
Firmness rating
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. Mattress firmness will also vary depending on the type of bed base used.
This pocket springs in this mattress feel sturdy and supportive. It offers reliable back support and should accommodate people of all sizes.
Perhaps due to the generous layers of comfort foams, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress doesn’t respond as well to normal sleep movements as some other mattresses. In basic terms, this means that changing sleep positions (and intimate activities) may require some effort.
Responsiveness
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 build quality of the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress is admirable. The quality of the foams and fabrics is of a high standard, as is the quality of the stitching and finishings.
The zip mechanism is large and the zipper was smooth and easy to use.
A lovely mattress that comes with plenty of comfort and design sophistication.
As we touched on in the Mattress Construction section above, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress seems to isolate motion quite well. So, a restless partner shouldn’t cause too much disruption.
With that said, motion transfer may vary. A larger mattress (e.g. king size) will usually involve lower amounts of motion transfer. Partner disturbance will also depend on the size of the occupants of the bed.
As with all other Zeek mattresses, the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress doesn’t come with side handles. Side handles will always make moving or transporting a mattress easier.
Thanks to the special foam box edge, edge support is commendable. So, the user should be able to use the full surface of the mattress, without fear of rolling off the edge.
All Zeek mattresses are CertiPUR-US and OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 approved. These highly reputable certifications indicate that this mattress has been tested for harmful substances and is safe for babies, toddlers, and adults.
What bed base should I use?
As with most mattresses, we recommend the Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress to be used on a bed base with flat panel slats such as the Koala Paddington Bed Base.
A bed base with solid slats (with slats no longer than 8 cm apart) such as the Chiropedic Bed Base, would also be very suitable.
We would advise against using a bed base with flexible (posture) slats as this type of base may not provide adequate support. Ultimately, the use of an unsupportive mattress foundation will void the mattress warranty.
Like with all Zeek mattresses, the Zeek Hybrid Element 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.
Trial period and warranty
The Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress comes with a 100 night trial period, which is a typical trial period in the online mattress market.
This trial period means that you can return the mattress for a refund if you are not satisfied (conditions do apply).
This mattress also comes with a 10 year warranty to cover any faulty materials or workmanship. This is a typical warranty period in context of similarly priced competitors.
Available sizes
This mattress is available in 6 sizes (king, queen, double, king single, long single, and single) so it should accommodate most adult sleeping arrangements.
Here are Australia’s standard bed (mattress) sizes in 2024.
Final verdict
The Zeek Hybrid Element Mattress is a lovely mattress that comes with plenty of comfort and design sophistication. Its trial period and non-toxic certifications are also noteworthy.
