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.

Based on our research, most people prefer a mattress that is firm but not too hard. Eva mattress is a medium firm mattress which puts it in the region of a 7-8 out of 10 with 1 being very soft and 10 being very hard. This is the ideal firmness for a supportive sleep.

Ergonomic Handles
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!
Our unique double pocket spring layer acts as a great source of ventilation. The open structure allows air to circulate freely thus providing a cooler sleep. In contrast, a full block of foam acts as a barrier to ventilation and traps heat in it. This makes the mattress hot, especially during the Australian summer! Memory Foam infused with millions of gel beads to maintain perfect temperature through the night, this material adapts to your body to redistribute heat and offer pressure relief. Eva's latex open cell and pinhole structure allows it to flex and breathe.
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 unique combination of micro and pocket springs provide support where it matters. Our 5 zone pocket springs provide optimal support from head to toe ensuring the body is properly aligned, no matter the sleeping position. The springs at the edges are also developed with thicker premium grade spring, eliminating the feeling of falling off. The micro springs bring an additional support layer closer to the surface, providing an extra bouncy feeling when sleeping on it. The patented Micro Springs technology creates air flow through the mattress, relieves pressure wherever it's most present during sleep and lends support as close to the body's contours as possible. Superior Edge Support: supported by robust springs along its side pockets, an Eva mattress makes it near-impossible to fall out of bed or sink down when banished to the mattress's edge by your partner, cat or sleeping habits. This side-spring technology encourages sleepers to utilise and enjoy the mattress's full, lush and sprawling surface.
