For the queen most people should just buy, the Origin Hybrid is the pick. It pairs 7-zone ErgoCoil pocket springs with a HexaGrid comfort layer for a true medium-firm feel that keeps the spine level whether you sleep on your back, side or a bit of both. That middle-of-the-road support is exactly what makes a queen work for two people who sleep differently.
What lifts it above the field is the fine print. The TENCEL cover is removable and machine-washable, which is rare at any price, and the 15-year warranty and 120-night trial are the longest safety nets on this list. A queen lands around $729 on Origin’s near-permanent sale, so you are getting premium build without a premium bill. It also tops our main best mattress guide on all-round value.
It only comes in one firmness, so dedicated soft or plush sleepers are better served by the Emma Comfort. But as the queen you can buy once and keep for years, nothing here balances support, comfort and value more surely.
Pick if...
You want one queen that suits two people and most sleeping styles, with a washable cover and the longest warranty here.
Pros
- Balanced medium-firm feel: 7-zone HexaGrid support that suits back, side and combination sleepers
- Works for couples: level, zoned support so two different sleepers share it comfortably
- Removable washable cover: genuinely rare and easy to keep fresh over years of use
- Longest warranty here: 15-year warranty plus a 120-night trial
Cons
- One firmness only: dedicated soft-mattress fans should look at the Emma Comfort
- Queen sits near $729: pricier than the Newentor once you size up to a queen
- Springy hybrid feel: not for anyone who wants a deep memory-foam hug

2. Newentor Hybrid (best value queen)

Firmness: Medium-Firm (6/10)
Price: From $388.50 (Queen $598.50)
Trial period: 120 Nights
Warranty: 10 Years

If you want the most queen for the least money, the Newentor Hybrid is unbeatable here. A queen is $598.50 for a genuine 7-zone pocket-spring hybrid, with firmer coils under the waist and lumbar to hold your spine level and softer zones at the shoulders. Most beds at this price are a bare foam slab; this one gives you real spring support.
It is not stripped-back either. A gel-infused memory foam comfort layer keeps the surface from feeling harsh, the bamboo-charcoal cover runs cool, and the foams are CertiPUR-US certified under an OEKO-TEX Standard 100 cover, which is unusually thorough at this price. A 120-night trial and 10-year warranty round out a value case that is hard to argue with for a queen.
The compromises are minor and honest: the cover does not unzip for washing, so pair it with a protector, and local aftercare is leaner than the big names. For most people chasing the best queen per dollar, none of that outweighs the price.
Pick if...
You want maximum support and comfort for the lowest queen price, and a certified spring hybrid under $600 sounds too good to pass up.
Pros
- Cheapest real hybrid queen here: a certified pocket-spring queen for $598.50
- Zoned spring support: firmer lumbar coils keep the spine level, softer at the shoulders
- Certified materials: CertiPUR-US foams plus an OEKO-TEX Standard 100 cover
- Cool bamboo-charcoal cover: naturally moisture-wicking and breathable
Cons
- Cover is not removable: pair it with a washable protector
- Leaner local aftercare: a smaller brand than Origin or Emma for support and returns
- Firmness runs medium-firm: dedicated soft-mattress fans should look at the Emma Comfort

3. Emma Comfort (best big-brand queen)

Firmness: Medium-Soft
Price: From $559 (current sale)
Trial period: 150 Nights
Warranty: 10 Years
Rating: â
â
â
â
â
(4.8/5)
The Emma Comfort is the safe big-brand queen. It is Australia’s most awarded mattress, a repeat ProductReview.com.au winner with thousands of five-star ratings, and yet Emma discounts so aggressively that a queen frequently starts from around $559, undercutting beds with a fraction of its reputation.
The build is a genuine three-layer foam comfort system over pocket springs, giving a medium-soft feel with excellent motion isolation that couples love, so you barely feel a partner shift on the other side of the queen. You also get the longest trial on this list at 150 nights, plenty of time to be sure it suits you before the sale price is locked in.
The catch is the feel: at around 6.7/10 it is on the softer side, so committed back and stomach sleepers may prefer the firmer Origin or Newentor. And because the price swings with each sale, always check the current deal rather than assume the RRP.
Pick if...
You want a big-brand, heavily reviewed queen with a softer feel and a long trial, and you can time your buy to one of Emma’s frequent sales.
Pros
- Longest trial here: 150 nights to be sure the queen is right for you
- Award-winning crowd-pleaser: ProductReview.com.au award and thousands of 5-star ratings
- Great motion isolation: three foam layers over pocket springs suit couples sharing a queen
- Softer feel: medium-soft comfort for side sleepers who find hybrids too firm
Cons
- Medium-soft may be too soft: around 6.7/10, firmer for back and stomach sleepers elsewhere
- Price depends on the sale: check the current deal rather than the RRP
- Cover is not removable: use a washable protector to keep it fresh
| Size | Dimensions (W×L×H) | Weight |

4. Ecosa Mattress (best adjustable queen)

Firmness: Adjustable (Plush / Medium / Firm)

Trial period: 100 Nights
Warranty: 15 Years
Rating: â

(4.7/5)

The Ecosa earns its spot by being three queens in one. Unzip the cover and you can reorder the internal layers to switch between Plush, Medium and Firm, so if two of you cannot agree on feel, or you simply do not want to gamble on one fixed firmness, it removes the guesswork entirely.
Underneath that flexibility is a well-made all-foam bed: a breathable contour foam that supports a little like latex while sleeping cooler, a removable washable cover, and a waterproof protector included in the box. The 15-year warranty is among the longest here, so it is built to be a long-term queen rather than a throwaway.
A queen sits around $1,240, so it is the priciest pick on this list, though Ecosa runs frequent sales with a member price near $992. For anyone nervous about committing to one feel across a shared queen, the ability to adjust it at home is worth the stretch.
Pick if...
You share a queen with someone whose preference differs, and you want to dial in Plush, Medium or Firm at home rather than gamble on one fixed feel.
Pros
- Three firmness settings in one queen: reorder the layers to find your exact feel at home
- Breathable contour foam: supports like latex while sleeping cooler
- Washable cover plus protector: a waterproof protector is included in the box
- Long 15-year warranty: among the longest safety nets here
Cons
- Priciest pick on this list: a queen is well above the Origin and Newentor hybrids
- All-foam, not hybrid: lacks the spring responsiveness of the Origin or Newentor
- Adjusting takes effort: you unzip and re-stack the layers to change feel

5. Koala mattress (most popular pick)

Firmness: Flippable (Medium-Firm / Firm)
Price: From $890
Trial period: 120 Nights
Warranty: Up to 10 Years
Rating: â
â
â
â
â
(4.7/5)
Australia’s most recognisable mattress is the one plenty of queen shoppers search for by name. The Koala is built on Kloudcell foam under a soft TENCEL cover, with excellent motion isolation, a flippable comfort layer that switches between medium-firm and firm, a 120-night trial and famously fast metro delivery. As a household name it is a genuinely popular, safe choice.
On all-round value, though, it lands last. A queen is $1,249, which costs more than the Origin, Newentor and sale-priced Emma while giving you no extra support to show for it, and being all-foam it lacks the zoned spring support the hybrids above use to keep heavier bodies level. It is a good mattress and a trusted brand; it is just not the best-balanced queen when the picks above do more for less.
Pros
- Excellent motion isolation: strong for restless couples
- Flippable firmness: switch between medium-firm and firm at home
- Soft TENCEL cover: breathable and moisture-managing
- Fast metro delivery: often same-day in major cities
Cons
- No plush side for side sleepers: both firmness options run firm under the shoulder
- All-foam core: lacks the zoned spring support the hybrids use for hip relief
- Price has crept up: from $890 against better-equipped hybrids
| Size | Dimensions (WĂLĂH) | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Single | 92 Ă 188 Ă 25 cm | $890 |
| King Single | 107 Ă 203 Ă 25 cm | $990 |
| Double | 138 Ă 188 Ă 25 cm | $1,150 |
| Queen | 153 Ă 203 Ă 25 cm | $1,249 |
| King | 183 Ă 203 Ă 25 cm | $1,490 |
From $890 · 120-night trial · up to 10-year warranty · flippable medium-firm/firm comfort layer. Prices checked July 2026 — always confirm on the brand site.
How we choose queen mattresses
There is no lab-coat theatre here, just the same process applied to every mattress whether the brand works with us or not. For queen mattresses specifically we:
- Weighed all-round balance — a queen is usually shared and kept for years, so we favoured beds that get support, comfort and value right rather than winning on any single spec.
- Checked the support core — a real pocket-spring or dense-foam core that keeps two spines level across the width of the bed, not a thin slab that bottoms out.
- Read the fine print — trial length, warranty and return costs, because a queen is a long-term commitment and the safety net matters.
- Aggregated verified owner reviews across ProductReview.com.au, CHOICE and Australian Reddit communities, and re-checked those scores at this update.
- Confirmed live pricing — every queen price was checked on the brand’s own page in July 2026, and where a brand discounts constantly we tell you to check the current sale.
Sleep Society may earn a commission if you buy through links on this page. That never changes the order: the best-balanced queen leads and Koala sits last with no link at all, which should tell you how the sausage is made.
