Materials

The Ergoflex protector is made of super-thin Tencel material which is very similar to the one they use to make their mattresses. They say that that is the only mattress protector you should use if you own the Ergoflex mattress. In general, Tencel is a fantastic material that has many advantages compared to polyester. The most important is the fact that it’s hypo-allergenic but also very breathable. The protector feels soft but it’s a relatively thin material that doesn’t feel very strong. It’s fully waterproof and you can machine wash it at 60°. It will fit any mattress that is up to 25cm deep so you won’t have an issue unless you have a really thick one. Overall, I loved the fact they used Tencel but I hope it will prove to be durable and will last for long.

Trial period & Delivery

The Ergoflex mattress protector comes with free delivery for all sizes. Of course, this is for mainland Australia only. If you live in some other areas then you might need to pay a delivery fee. Depending on where you live, it might take 3-7 working days for your package to arrive. I received good communication via email and text and the courier was polite. Unfortunately, due to hygienic reasons, you cannot return it once you open it and there is no trial period available. This makes sense and it’s totally understandable. Finally, you will also get a 2-year warranty against defects of workmanship or materials. Overall, I think that Ergoflex does a good job here.

Pricing

The table below has pricing information about all the available sizes. You can get the Ergoflex protector in 6 sizes so you will definitely find the one that best suits your needs. The Single starts at $149.99 with the King selling for $199.99.

Is the Ergoflex mattress protector for me?

Finishing this Ergoflex mattress protector review, it’s a good time to share my final thoughts with you. I believe that it’s really important to use a protector as it helps prolong the life of your mattress. Ergoflex managed to build a high-quality one that it’s fully waterproof and very breathable. The use of Tencel is definitely the main advantage of this mattress protector. Finally, it comes at a fair price so if you are looking to get a hypo-allergenic one then this can be a good choice for you.

After developing the Ergoflex mattress, they decided to create a pillow with similar technology. The pillow looks a lot like their mattress, which made me very curious to try this. It comes packed in a nice box, and the pillow measures 45cm x 65cm x 12cm, which will fit your standard pillowcases. My pillow arrived 3 weeks ago, so this is a good time to write this review.

Construction

Ergoflex decided to use the high-density visco-elastic memory foam that they use to make their mattresses. It’s a firm foam, so for this reason, they decided to create a relatively thin pillow (measures 12cm in height). This was the right choice because, with this type of firmness, the pillow would not work in all sleeping positions.

Cover

The cover of the Ergoflex pillow is fantastic. They used Tencel to make it, which is a material that has many benefits. It’s all-natural and extremely breathable. Moreover, it’s naturally anti-allergenic, so this pillow is good for those suffering from allergies or skin problems. Finally, the cover is removable and you can machine-wash it. As you see, it actually has all the elements that a good cover needs to have, so they did a really good job here.

Support

One thing that is really important when it comes to pillows is the height. During sleep, we change positions, which means that our neck needs different support every time we move. Therefore, if a pillow is too thick, it won’t be good in the stomach position, and if it’s too slim, it won’t be good in the side position. Ergoflex did a good job here as they combined a relatively slim design with firm memory foam. The result is great as the pillow worked very well in every sleeping position. The memory foam also provided my neck with pressure relief, especially in the back position. The pillow is also comfortable, and overall, I think it’s a great one.

Is the Ergoflex pillow for me?

Finishing this Ergoflex pillow review, it’s time I share my final thoughts with you. Overall, I think that this is a great pillow that would suit most sleepers, even the demanding ones. Having said that, it would be ideal for anyone looking for:

• A memory foam pillow that offers maximum pressure relief.
• A pillow with an anti-allergenic cover made of Tencel.
• A not-too-thick pillow which is versatile and it’s a good all-rounder.

If you look for all the above, then this pillow should be very high on your list. It also comes with a 2-year warranty and free delivery. The price is not cheap, but you get what you pay for.

If you have any questions about the above review, feel free to contact me.

This mattress is a foam-only one and is geared towards people who suffer from back pain or other orthopaedic problems. Ergoflex wants to position itself as a Tempur alternative, but only in quality, not in price. The mattress is designed in Australia but is manufactured in state-of-the-art facilities in China. The mattress comes packed in a grey carton box and is delivered directly to your door. Mine arrived almost two weeks ago, so it’s a good time now to write the full review.

Who is the Ergoflex mattress suitable for?

• Back pain sufferers looking for an orthopaedic mattress.
• Sleepers who prefer memory foam mattresses.
• Couples that seek minimal partner disturbance.
• Those who want to improve their spinal posture and health.

What is an Ergoflex mattress made of?

The Ergoflex mattress is made of a total of 3 foam layers.

• A high-density visco-elastic memory foam layer that provides the body with the needed pressure relief. It also helps to minimise motion transfer.
• A Cool-Sleep airflow layer that is there to help the mattress breathe. It regulates the temperature at the very core of the mattress.
• A high-resilience foam base that provides the body with the needed support. This layer keeps the mattress together.

In the picture below, you can see the placement of the different layers.

What is the cover made of?

The cover of this mattress is made of Natural Tencel. It’s a fantastic material that has many advantages. Firstly, it’s very breathable and feels soft. Secondly, it’s hypoallergenic and anti-microbial, so if you are an allergy sufferer, this mattress can be good for you. The cover is removable and you can machine wash it at 30°. Besides the outer Tencel cover, the mattress features a protective micro-fine inner cover which protects the core of the mattress.

The design of the cover is Scandi, featuring grey and white tones. I personally liked it as it looks very different from all the other mattresses I have reviewed. In general, I think this is one of the best covers I have seen. It’s made with excellent material, it’s very breathable, and it’s easy to clean. I don’t think I have any complaints here.

How firm is the Ergoflex mattress?

The Ergoflex mattress features an orthopaedic design, so I was expecting it to be firmer than most rolled mattresses. It still is a medium-firm mattress, but I would say it’s a 7 in my virtual scale. I remind you that 10 is really firm and 1 is really soft. It’s time now to talk about the different sleeping positions and how this mattress performed.

Starting from the back position, I immediately felt the high-quality memory foam layer hugging my shoulders and hips. It’s a firm foam, and I must say it felt great in this position. The support and pressure relief were there, and my spine was aligned properly. The mattress did an excellent job in this position.

Moving to the side position, the foam reacted relatively quickly for a memory foam one, but the mattress felt a bit firm for this position. Sinkage was not enough for my spine to get into the right position, and I felt that I needed more depth in the hip area. Firmer mattresses tend not to suit the side position, so I was expecting that.

Finally, moving to the stomach position, the mattress offered the right support in the hips and chest area. It was extremely comfortable, and the firmness of the mattress was ideal for this position. I think that the Ergoflex mattress is ideal for the back and stomach position and average for the side position.

The mattress is also very good for couples. The foam construction means minimal motion transfer, so you won’t be disturbed by your partner. The edge support is also good for a memory foam mattress, and in general, Ergoflex is well-built.

Does this mattress sleep cool?

Despite featuring a foam-only construction, the Ergoflex mattress has an impressive cooling performance. It achieves that thanks to a Cool-Sleep airflow layer, which is located at the very core of this mattress. Besides that, the rest of the mattress also features an open-cell construction that allows airflow. Around it, there is a breathable tencel cover which completes the efficient cooling mechanism. That makes the Ergoflex mattress suitable for hot sleepers but also for the Australian climate.

What type of bed should I use with this mattress?

Ergoflex can be placed on any flat surface, including your floor. However, I advise you to use a base which allows the mattress to breathe better. You can use a slatted one, a foundation one or an adjustable one, depending on your needs and taste. This mattress will work just fine with every one of the above options.

Will it come packed in a box?

As I have already mentioned above, the Ergoflex mattress comes directly to your door, packed in a carton box. Next-day delivery is free for all sizes provided you live in Brisbane, Canberra, Melbourne and Sydney. If you live elsewhere, delivery can take longer, but they usually have fast times.

The box will be delivered to your front door, so make sure you have someone to help you with it. Ergoflex is one of the heaviest mattresses out there, so be prepared. You will receive an email and a text on the day your mattress is dispatched, and in general, I found communication to be adequate. The courier arrived on time, and he was polite and friendly. If you want a Saturday delivery, you should contact them, and they will arrange it for you for an extra fee. Overall, they offer a really good service here and, unlike other companies, they can deliver to outlying Australian islands, New Zealand or other Pacific Islands.

Will the Ergoflex mattress come with a trial period?

The Ergoflex mattress comes with a 30-day trial period. This gives you a month to test the mattress and decide if you are happy with your purchase. This is an area in which Ergoflex could do better. Most ‘mattresses in a box’ come with a 100-night trial period. If you are not happy with the mattress, you can return it and get a full refund. Mattresses that are returned are donated to the charity RizeUp, which helps victims of family and domestic violence. This is a great gesture, and I hope more makers will follow their lead.

Besides the trial, you will also get a 10-year warranty which covers any material or workmanship defect arising in that period. This shows they have trust in their manufacturing process.

How much does it cost?

The mattress is available in 6 sizes. The smaller (Single) goes for $949 and the bigger (King) sells for $1,899. Ergoflex is not the cheapest option, but they always run promotions, so you don’t have to pay full price. If you want to save money, make sure you visit the discount page here. The table below has pricing information for all the available sizes.

Is the Ergoflex mattress any good?

Completing this Ergoflex mattress review, I would like to share my final thoughts with you. This mattress is great for anyone looking for:

• An orthopaedic mattress that is excellent for sleepers who prefer the back or stomach position.
• A mattress that features a hypoallergenic Tencel cover.
• A memory foam mattress that is good for couples.

Ergoflex is a great mattress. It’s very well built, and it’s a great choice for anyone looking for an affordable Tempur alternative. If you are one, then definitely go for it!

Alternatives to consider

The Origin LumbarCloud mattress is another great choice for those who suffer from a bad back. It features a LumbarCloud pillowtop that can provide your back with therapeutic support. Underneath that, a dual-stage coil system ensures that the weight distribution is even. Moreover, the same system can provide your body with pressure relief and improve spinal alignment. All these make this mattress ideal for sleepers with a bad back. The LumbarCloud mattress is designed to sleep cool, so it’s suitable for the Australian weather. If you buy one, you will get a 15-year warranty, a 125-night trial and free delivery. Of course, all that comes at a cost, so you should prepare to pay much more than what you would spend for an Ergoflex mattress.

On the other hand, if you want a cheaper choice, you should consider the Ecosa Align Firm mattress. This is a relatively new release from the popular maker, and it’s designed for those who are looking for a mattress with a firmer feel. Its design combines high-density foam with pocket springs, and the result is a supportive mattress that promotes a healthy spinal alignment. This mattress also features a high-quality tencel cover that allows airflow, so it’s unlikely that you will feel hot during the night. Ecosa offers a great support package here, so if you seek a mattress to help you deal with your bad back, this is a choice to consider.
