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 mattress is a medium/firm feel.

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!
3D Spacer Fabric - Our side panels are designed to let air circulate throughout your mattress. Mattresses need to breathe too you know! A top layer of Gel Infused Memory Foam for temperature stability. For the second layer, we chose Natural and renewable Latex, designed to breathe freely yet support uniformly.
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.
Dynamic Edge Support - Made of firmer high tensile steel springs, the edge support surrounds the mattress and allows full use of the total surface and for sleeper to lie up to the edge without roll-off. Memory foam for the ultimate in pressure relief and body contouring. Individual pocket springs mean no partner disturbance and a stronger mattress for a longer product life. Specifically zoned in 5 places to provide maximum support.
