The Dusk & Dawn Signature is a premium Australian-made hybrid and, on paper, one of the most heavily engineered beds in a box you can buy locally. It stacks a double-decker pocket-spring system under graphite-infused comfort foams inside a tall 38cm profile, and it has taken Australia’s Mattress of the Year award three years running. In this review we break down how it is built, how it feels, what it costs across every size, and who should (and should not) spend this much on a mattress.
This is unapologetically a luxury bed. It is priced well above the typical bed-in-a-box, ships with white-glove setup rather than a compressed box, and is offered in three firmness options plus a free adjustment service during the trial. If you want a plush hotel-grade hybrid and the budget is there, it is a genuine contender; if you just want a solid value mattress, there are cheaper beds that do the basics well.

How it scores
Quality is exceptional – Australian-made, GECA-certified, award-winning build. Comfort and perks (three firmness choices, free adjustment, white-glove delivery) are excellent. Value is the weak spot: this is one of the priciest mattresses in Australia. Ease of use loses a point because at 38cm it is very heavy to move.
The bottom line
The Dusk & Dawn Signature is a top-tier luxury hybrid: a tall, double-decker pocket-spring bed with graphite comfort foams, three firmness options and a free in-trial adjustment service, all Australian-made and GECA-certified. It is expensive and heavy, so it is not the pick if value or easy handling matter most. But if you want a plush, breathable, hotel-grade hybrid backed by a 100-night comfort guarantee and are comfortable with the price, it earns its place.
We assess every mattress on the same five criteria – quality, value, comfort, ease of use and perks – using the brand’s published construction, aggregated owner reviews from ProductReview.com.au and CHOICE, and hands-on assessment of the feel, cover and setup. We re-check pricing on the brand’s live page at each update.
The Signature suits buyers who want a premium, hotel-grade hybrid and have the budget for it: people who value a tall pocket-spring build, graphite cooling and the option to fine-tune firmness during the trial. It is a natural fit for our best luxury mattress and back pain guides. Value-focused shoppers, and anyone who needs to move the mattress themselves, are better served by a lighter, cheaper bed such as the Ecosa.

The Signature is a 38cm hybrid built as a double-decker pocket-spring system under multiple graphite-infused comfort layers. From the top:
The mattress is made in Australia and GECA-certified (Good Environmental Choice Australia), and the wool-blend quilt is treated for anti-bacterial protection. Because it is a tall, fully built hybrid, it is delivered assembled by a two-person team rather than compressed in a box.

The Signature comes in three firmness options – Plush (around 3.5/10), Comfy Medium (around 5.5/10) and Firm (around 7/10). The five-zone double-decker spring system holds the spine level while contouring the shoulders and hips, so most sleepers land well in Comfy Medium, with Firm suiting back and stomach sleepers or heavier bodies and Plush suiting dedicated side sleepers.
Individually encased pocket coils isolate movement well, so a restless partner is unlikely to wake you despite this being a spring bed rather than all-foam.
This is one of its strengths. The double pocket-spring core moves air freely, the 3D mesh gusset vents the sides, and the graphite foam pulls heat away from the surface, so it runs cooler than a dense all-foam mattress.
Because it arrives fully built rather than vacuum-compressed, off-gassing is minimal – there is little of the new-foam smell you get from a boxed bed, and any faint scent clears quickly in a ventilated room.

Type: pocket-spring hybrid · Firmness: choose Plush / Comfy Medium / Firm · Height: 38cm · Trial: 100-night comfort guarantee · Warranty: 10 years · Prices checked July 2026; Dusk & Dawn runs frequent sales, so confirm the current price.
The Signature starts at $2,899 for a single and runs to $4,249 for a super king, with a queen at $3,449. That places it firmly at the luxury end of the Australian market – well above most bed-in-a-box hybrids – which is the trade-off for the double-decker spring build, graphite foams, three firmness options and white-glove delivery. Dusk & Dawn discounts regularly and runs seasonal sales, so check the live price before you buy.

You choose your size and firmness (Plush, Comfy Medium or Firm) at checkout. Delivery is free to metro areas Australia-wide with a white-glove service, meaning a two-person team brings the mattress in and sets it up on your base – useful given how heavy a 38cm hybrid is. Regional delivery is a $250 flat fee, and old-mattress removal is available in metro areas for an extra fee. Lead times run roughly one to three weeks depending on your state, with quicker shipping on popular queen and king Comfy Medium configurations.
With a robust double pocket-spring core, a 10-year warranty and a Power Edge encasement that resists edge sag, the Signature is built to outlast the typical 7–10 year mattress lifespan. Rotating it head-to-toe every few months and using a breathable mattress protector will keep it in shape; the wool-blend quilt is also treated for anti-bacterial protection to stay hygienic over time.
You choose Plush, Comfy Medium or Firm when you order, and Dusk & Dawn offers a free firmness adjustment service during the 100-night comfort guarantee if the feel is not right for you.
Yes. The double pocket-spring core, 3D mesh gusset and graphite comfort foam make it one of the more breathable premium hybrids, running noticeably cooler than a dense all-foam bed.
It is an Australian-made, GECA-certified luxury hybrid with a tall double-decker spring build, graphite foams and white-glove delivery. Those materials and the local manufacturing push it well above mass-market boxed beds.
If the price is a stretch, the brand’s own Essential is a more affordable entry point, and a value hybrid or all-foam bed like the Ecosa costs far less. The Signature earns its price when you specifically want a top-tier hybrid.
