Firmness Info

Dusk and Dawn provides an array of supports tailored to meet every sleeper's needs. Their Plush support, rated 3-4 on the firmness scale, is supremely soft, offering luxurious comfort while ensuring body support throughout the night. The Comfy Medium support, with a firmness score of 5-6, is widely favored, providing the perfect balance of support and comfort by allowing slight sinkage for the hips and shoulders. For those who prefer a solid foundation, the Firm Support, rated 7-8, offers a firmer base while not compromising on comfort.

Completely Customisable Comfort The Macoda Mattress is designed so that you can change your comfort setting at home. With a simple "unzip and flip" you can swap around the two top foam layers, changing your mattress to give you a firmer, medium or softer feel in a matter of minutes.

Ergonomic Handles
Comfort
Pure Australian natural wool comfort. Highly breathable and naturally anti-bacterial and anti dust mite for a fresher and more hygienic sleep. Natural wool has excellent thermo-regulation properties, which keep you warm in winter and cooler in summer. By using locally sourced Australian wool we are supporting our Aussie farmers!
Bringing the bounce back into the bedroom. With Macoda's layer of premium natural latex, you'll get just the right amount of responsiveness to stop the sinking feeling of most foam mattresses. The added bounce makes for a more supportive sleep with fewer disturbances. The Macoda Mattress is designed with the Australian climate in mind. Our comfort layer uses advanced cooling gel that reacts to your body temperature, drawing heat away. A super breathable mattress structure allows for increased airflow and heat dispersion. Less heat build-up means a cooler, sounder night's sleep.
Support
Independently encased Pocket Coil System with 5 targeted zones for better body support and contouring where you need it most. The independent pocket springs also help minimise partner disturbance. With firmer perimeter coils for extra edge support and increased sleeping surface.
By conforming to your unique body shape, weight is distributed and supported evenly. Without proper support, reduced circulation as well as aches, pains and discomfort are all too common. The unique 4-layer design of the Macoda Mattress works collectively to give you the pressure relief necessary to make sure you're not just sleeping comfortably, but are waking up feeling great. 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.
