Firmness Info

The design offers a comfortable softness level while leaning toward the firmer side, with a focus on bodily support for a healthier night's sleep.

The Koala mattress has a double-sided comfort layer that you access by unzipping the cover, and flip this layer over. You can choose between medium-firm support and firmer support. Koala recommend trying the medium-firm default side first.

Comfort
Three inches of cooling gel infused memory foam designed to effortlessly mold to the shape of your body. The Onebed Essential gets all the basics right, with style. The design offers a comfortable softness level while leaning toward the firmer side, with a focus on bodily support for a healthier night’s sleep.
Our customisable, double-sided Kloudcell™ comfort layer means you can choose what firmness level of work for you. It comes in a medium-firm feel but if you’re on the lookout for something a little firmer, it's as easy as unzipping and flipping the comfort layer.
Support
Five inches of high-density base foam to provide a highly durable platform which maintains skeletal alignment. With a two-inch height reduction, you still get all the luxury bonus features - with all the comfort, support, and durability you need, at a fraction of the price.
To help create an ideal foundation for sleeping, 3 targeted high-density precision cut support zones are designed to take the pressure off. No matter what position you prefer, overall it helps make a better sleeping experience.
