About the The Retreat
The Concave-Coil Mattress is designed for those seeking a lower-profile sleep solution without compromising on support and durability. Featuring a 17cm profile and our innovative Concave-Coil support system, this mattress delivers a firmer feel that is ideal for growing children, teenagers, guest rooms, student accommodation, bunk beds, trundle beds, and compact living spaces.
The unique coil design provides consistent support across the entire sleep surface while maintaining excellent airflow for a cooler night's sleep. Its lower height makes getting in and out of bed easier and ensures compatibility with a wide range of bed frames where a slimmer mattress is preferred.

The quality was never the corner we cut
A $291 mattress sounds too cheap to be any good. The catch is that most of what you pay a traditional retailer never touches the mattress.
Cut the showroom, the commissions and the celebrity faces, and that money goes straight back into the mattress and into your pocket.
Being in the trade since 1963 taught our family which materials genuinely change how you sleep, and we back the Retreat with 120 nights to decide and a 15 year warranty.
The questions worth asking before you buy
Why is the Retreat priced this low?
The Retreat is one of the last complete builds in the current run, so it is priced to clear rather than to sit in stock. The Bonnell spring support system underneath is the same specification as always, the price has moved because the stock position has.
What if I lie on it at home and it is not right for me?
That is what the 120 night trial is for. You sleep on the Retreat at home for up to four months, and if it is not right for you, you send it back for a refund.* The risk sits with us, not with you.
What happens once the clearance sizes sell out?
Once a size sells through, that size is gone. This is the last of the current Retreat build at this specification, so once local stock clears there is no reorder behind it.
How firm does the Retreat feel?
The Retreat is a firmer, low profile mattress. The Bonnell spring support system runs consistent support across the full surface with excellent airflow, which is why it works well for growing children, teenagers, guest rooms, student accommodation, bunk beds and trundle beds.
Why is the mattress so much lower than a standard bed?
The low profile is by design, not a compromise. A lower height makes getting in and out of bed easier and keeps the mattress compatible with a wider range of bed frames, particularly bunk beds and trundle beds where a slimmer build is needed.
Who are Mattress Crafters?
An Australian, family owned business that has been in the mattress trade since 1963. Not a start up, just a family that has been selling beds long enough to know what lasts.
What if it sags or breaks down?
It is backed by a 15 year warranty. The Bonnell spring core is built to hold consistent support across the sleep surface for the long run.
*The 120 night trial is a money back comfort guarantee. A return can be started after the first 30 nights, and the full mattress price is refunded. The only cost is a flat $250 pickup fee if you ask us to collect it, and your free delivery is never deducted. Soiled or damaged mattresses cannot be returned. See full trial terms

The standards we chose to meet
No law says a mattress sold in Australia has to carry these certifications. We chose them because a certificate from an outside lab is the only proof of quality that does not depend on our word.
