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.

The Peacelily mattress has two firmness levels: medium and firm. All you need to do is flip the mattress over to adjust. The medium firmness is most suited for side sleepers, and the firm is most suited to back sleepers. Two heavy duty handles adorn both sides panels of the mattress. This makes changing firmness levels hassle-free when flipping the mattress. If you're after a plush (softer) feel, you can add the topper for a small additional charge to give you extra pressure relief and that cloud-like comfort! You can add (or remove) the topper at any time.

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!
Combining natural ingredients and the comfiest organic fabric available, the Peacelily is a luxurious natural mattress. Dunlop latex is used as it is naturally antimicrobial, cooler than memory foam, and also more durable than Talalay latex. As less processing is required it is more eco-friendly than Talalay latex. You won't find any blended or synthetic latex, nor petroleum-based foams, memory foam, chemical adhesives or ozone-depleting substances! Our latex has hundreds of pin holes to allow for easy airflow and cool sleeping Peacelily mattresses feature 100% natural Dunlop latex rubber foam, made from sustainably harvested sources. It's an eco-friendly, high-performance material, offering resilience, durability, and temperature control that far exceeds synthetic, blended or petroleum-based polyurethane foams. Check out the video above on the pin-holing process of the latex.
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.
Our non-toxic green bed combines the finest natural cushioning with perfect back support and extended durability. This durability is backed by the LGA Certification which simulates normal usage of the mattress and tests the quality and resilience by stroking the mattress with 150kg of force some 60,000 times - Peacelily scored 99 out of 100 (where 50 is a pass). The quality is further backed by the 25 year warranty. Natural latex is the best-kept secret in sleep, and once you have tried it, nothing else will do. Latex gently cradles every curve of your body for pressure-free support and incomparable comfort. Thanks to the superior rebound properties of latex, you won't have that feeling of being stuck that some memory foam mattresses have.
