Ecosa Align Firm Mattress Review

Many sleepers prefer mattresses with a firmer feel, mainly looking for better posture. In this Ecosa Align Firm mattress review, I talk about this interesting new option that might be Ecosa’s new bestseller.

To create a really firm mattress, the engineers at Ecosa decided to develop a hybrid design that combines latex foam with pocket springs but more on that layer. After having reviewed the Ecosa Pure mattress, I was really keen to try this out too. My Align Firm mattress arrived almost two weeks ago so let’s move to the full review below.

What are the layers in this mattress?

This mattress features 4 layers plus the cover. In detail, these are:

• A Dunlop latex foam layer that is designed to isolate motion and provide your body with the needed pressure relief. To increase its breathability, the people at Ecosa have drilled pincore holes in it.
• A convoluted wave foam layer that can distribute weight evenly. This is designed to take the pressure off demanding areas like your hips and shoulders.
• A layer made of heavy-duty pocket springs. These will provide your body with support and are responsible for the firm feel of this mattress.
• A hard-felt foam layer that protects the pocket springs and adds some support.

The mattress measures 20cm in height, so it’s not a thick one. I have to mention here that all foams used here are CertiPUR-US certified, so they don’t contain any harmful substances. The image below gives us a better view of how this mattress looks from the inside.

Does it come with a good cover?

The cover of this mattress is made of a Tencel blend. This is a great choice as Tencel is a material that has some interesting properties. For starters, Tencel is eco-friendly as it’s made from wood pulp. Secondly, this is a breathable material, so air can pass through it. Finally, Tencel is hypoallergenic, so it’s suitable for sensitive skin. On the sides of the cover, they have added a 3D mesh panel that allows the mattress to breathe with ease. This is a clever system that does the trick.

The good news is that they have also added 4 side handles, which make it way easier to move it whenever that is needed. However, this is not a very heavy mattress, so you will move it with ease. Unfortunately, the cover is not removable, so you can only spot-clean it if you get it dirty. This is the main drawback here, but overall, this is a high-quality cover that sleeps cool.

How firm is this mattress?

Let’s continue with this Ecosa Align Firm mattress review and discuss its feel. As I have mentioned before, this is a really firm mattress, and if I use my virtual scale here, I would say it’s an 8, with 10 being really firm. I would like to talk now about the different sleeping positions and how this mattress performed in the past week.

Starting from the back position, the mattress felt really firm, but I didn’t feel that it was uncomfortable. I was well-supported, and my spinal alignment was correct.

Turning to the side position, sinkage was not enough for a proper spinal alignment, so I felt that this mattress was not ideal for side sleepers. Support remained good, and I didn’t feel any discomfort in my hips.

Finally, moving to the stomach position, the Align Firm mattress did a fantastic job. The mattress managed to support my hips and shoulders, so I think that it’s ideal for front sleepers.

As for the edge support, this mattress is a solid construction, so you can get in and out of bed with ease. Moreover, there is some motion transfer, but nothing that will bother you too much. That means that it’s suitable for couples.

Do I have to pay for delivery?

One of the things that annoys me when I shop is paying for delivery. The good news is that all Ecosa mattresses come with free metro delivery. This includes the cities of Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane. For Non-Metro areas, delivery is also free, but if you live in more remote areas, there might be a flat delivery cost of $175.

Depending on your location, delivery can take between 1 and 7 working days, which is not bad at all. I live in Sydney, so my mattress came within 2 working days. The process was smooth, and I was frequently updated about the status of my order. The box arrived in mint condition, and it wasn’t hard to move it to the room of my choice. Overall, I was happy with their service, so no complaints at all.

What if I don’t like this mattress?

Many people don’t feel comfortable buying a mattress online, but the good news is that if you buy from Ecosa, you will get a 100-night trial period that allows you to try it at home. Returns are free, so if you are not happy with your purchase, you have the right to return it and get your money back. Moreover, all Ecosa mattresses come with a 15-year guarantee, which is one of the longest in Australia. Of course, before you buy a mattress, it would be wise to read the full warranty policy, so you know what is covered. Overall, this is a great package, especially if we consider the price here.

Is this an expensive option?

The Ecosa Align Firm mattress is available in 6 sizes, so you have plenty of options to choose from. It’s an affordable mattress, and the smaller size (Single) will cost you $790, with the bigger one (Super King) going for $1,620. However, the people at Ecosa run frequent promotions, so I paid only $800 for a Queen mattress. The table below features all the available sizes and their prices.

SIZE	DIMENSIONS	PRICE
Single	188 x 92 x 20cm	$790
King Single	203 x 107 x 20cm	$920
Double	188 x 138 x 20cm	$1,040
Queen	203 x 153 x 20cm	$1,120
King	203 x 183 x 20cm	$1,330
Super King	203 x 203 x 20cm	$1,620

Should I buy the Ecosa Align Firm mattress?

I will try to answer this question before I complete this Ecosa Align Firm mattress review. In my opinion, this would be a great option for anyone looking for:

• A firm mattress that is great for the back and front positions.
• A hybrid mattress that sleeps cool.
• A durable mattress that comes with a 15-year warranty.

If you are looking for a firm mattress that comes with an affordable price tag, the Align Firm mattress can be a great option. Add a great cooling system and a comprehensive support package, and you have a mattress that is a great choice for Aussies.
