Shop Affordable Mattresses

Our range of cheap mattresses covers Australian standard sizes from single through to super king, with free delivery on every mattress. We stock affordable memory foam, pocket spring, latex foam, hybrid, and euro top constructions across a wide range of firmness levels and thickness profiles, giving you practical options for every sleep preference and budget.

Each mattress is available in Australian standard sizes including single, double, queen, king single, king, and super king. Always confirm the exact dimensions on the product listing match your bed base or frame before purchasing.

Mattress Types and Comfort Levels

Our mattress range covers a broad selection of construction types and firmness levels to suit different sleep preferences and budgets. Firmness options include firm, medium firm, and plush across multiple construction types, so narrowing down your preferred feel before browsing is a practical starting point.

Our available construction types and firmness options include:

  • Extra firm mattresses for sleepers who need maximum resistance with virtually no surface give, often suited to those with lower back concerns or a heavier body weight.

  • Firm mattresses for back and stomach sleepers who need a stable surface that keeps the spine in neutral alignment without sinking at the hips.

  • Medium firm mattresses for the widest range of sleepers, balancing surface give with underlying support across most body weights and sleep positions.

  • Plush mattresses for side sleepers and lighter-framed sleepers who need the surface to give enough to cushion the shoulders and hips without feeling unsupported.

  • Soft mattresses for those who sleep primarily on their side and need the surface to compress enough to keep the spine level through the night.

  • Memory foam mattresses for pressure relief that conforms to your body shape as you sleep, reducing stress on joints and contact points, particularly for side sleepers.

  • Gel memory foam mattresses for the same contouring pressure relief as memory foam with the addition of gel infusion to help draw heat away from the sleep surface, making them better suited to warm sleepers.

  • Latex foam mattresses for sleepers who want pressure relief without the slow-sinking feel of memory foam, with a more responsive surface and better natural temperature regulation.

  • Foam mattresses for a quiet, motion-free sleep surface at an accessible price point, without springs or complex layering, suited to lighter sleepers, guest rooms, or those who prefer a simple, consistent feel.

  • Hybrid mattresses for sleepers who want the airflow and responsiveness of pocket springs combined with the pressure relief of foam or latex comfort layers, suiting a wide range of sleep positions and a practical choice for couples with different preferences.

  • Euro top mattresses for a flush, integrated comfort layer built directly into the mattress top, delivering added cushioning without a separate topper and available across multiple firmness levels and construction types.

Choosing the Right Mattress Thickness

The thickness of a mattress affects how it feels, how it pairs with your base, and the overall height of your bed setup. Here is a quick guide to the thickness bands available:

  • 16-21cm thick mattresses: a lower profile suited to bunk beds, platform bases, and setups where overall bed height needs to stay manageable.

  • 21-25cm thick mattresses: the most popular mid-range profile, compatible with most standard bed frames and bases.

  • 25-34cm thick mattresses: a thicker profile suited to shoppers who prefer a higher bed height or a more cushioned surface feel.

  • Over 34cm thick mattresses: the deepest profile in the range, featuring premium constructions for a substantial, hotel-style feel.

Always confirm the mattress dimensions on the product listing match your Australian standard bed size before purchasing.

Pocket Spring and Innerspring: Understanding the Difference

Innerspring mattresses use a connected wire coil system where pressure in one area causes the surrounding coils to respond together. This produces a firm, consistent feel at a lower price point, making them a practical choice for guest rooms or single sleepers who prefer a traditional spring feel. Innerspring mattresses are also lighter and easier to handle than foam or hybrid alternatives.

Pocket spring mattresses wrap each coil individually so they compress independently. Movement on one side transfers far less to the other, which makes a noticeable difference for couples sharing a bed, particularly when one partner is a lighter sleeper or keeps different hours.

Mattresses for Kids and Growing Sleepers

Children generally benefit from a firmer surface that supports developing posture without excessive sink. The kids mattresses range covers single and king single sizes suited to bunk beds, trundle setups, and standard single frames, at thicknesses appropriate for lower base heights.

Completing Your Sleep Setup

A mattress works best as part of a considered bedroom setup. A compatible bed base provides even support across the mattress surface and helps it perform and wear well over time. For shoppers who also need a frame, our bed frames collection covers all Australian standard sizes.

A mattress protector fitted from day one maintains hygiene and protects the mattress surface. A mattress topper is worth considering if you want to fine-tune the feel of your mattress after purchase without replacing it entirely.

How do I choose the right mattress firmness for my sleep style?

Start with your main sleep position. Side sleepers often prefer a softer feel to cushion shoulders and hips, while back and stomach sleepers usually suit a firmer feel for steadier support. If you share the bed, aim for a balanced comfort level. Use the product listing’s firmness notes to compare options.

What mattress size should I choose to fit my bed base?

Match the mattress size to your bed base size first, then double-check the listed dimensions to avoid a tight fit. If your base has a frame or edges, measure the internal space as well. Factory Buys uses standard Australian sizing, so a queen mattress is designed to fit a queen base.

Which matters more: thickness, pocket springs, or foam comfort layers?

Pocket springs or foam layers affect how the mattress feels and supports you, so start there. Thickness can change overall bed height and the level of cushioning, but it’s only useful if the support and comfort layers suit your body. Compare the build, firmness, and thickness together on the product specs.

How do I set up a new mattress after delivery and unboxing?

Clear a path to the bedroom before moving the mattress into place, then set it on your bed frame or base before removing the packaging. Unwrap it carefully and allow it to settle for the time recommended on the product page. Free shipping applies to all mattresses Australia-wide with no exceptions, so you can focus on getting it positioned correctly and checked on arrival. Keep the packaging until you have confirmed the mattress condition, then rotate it as recommended for more even wear.
