Warranty & Guarantee

Sleep Republic Pty Ltd provides warranties for the products listed below which are purchased online from https://sleeprepublic.com.au. All warranties commence on the date the product was originally delivered to, or collected by the purchaser and is valid only to the original purchaser of the product as indicated on the original sales invoice.

The Mattress

Sleep Republic provides a 12 year warranty on The Mattress sold online. This warranty covers;

  • Faulty workmanship or materials.
  • Body impressions or visible indentation or sag in the mattress surface, while no weight is applied, of greater than 3.5cm.

In order for the mattress to wear evenly we recommend rotating the mattress 180 degrees every 2 weeks for the first month then once every month for the duration of the warranty period. Failure to rotate your mattress may cause the mattress not to wear evenly and will void the warranty.

This warranty does not cover

  • Normal wear and tear from use.
  • Minor imperfections that do not affect the performance of the bed. These include slight variations to size and colour.
  • Odour. Some materials have a natural or new odour.
  • Damage caused by incorrect opening of the mattress or failing to follow delivery and unpacking instructions.
  • Handles (where fitted) should only be used to position the mattress and should never be used to carry the mattress or support the full weight of the mattress.
  • Use for commercial, rental or other business purpose (including but not limited to hotel use, Airbnb etc.). In such cases the warranty period is 12 months.
  • Damage caused by abusive handling, misuse.
  • Failing to use the mattress with the proper foundation or base that has support including centre support.

A waterproof & breathable mattress protector is highly recommended at all times of use.

For optimum support Sleep Republic recommends a solid straight timber slat base to be used as the foundation underneath the mattress. Alternatively a firm flat surface with adequate breathing holes can be used. The foundation that supports your mattress is a very important element to ensuring the longevity of your mattress as mattresses always follow the foundation that they rest on. For this reason, any curved or flexible type slat system or sprung bases are not suitable as over time the mattress may bend or flex with the movement that these type of slats/bases provide. Gaps between slats should not exceed 8cm uncovered or 10cm fabric covered as gaps exceeding these widths will not provide adequate support to the mattress and the pocket spring system.
