Whenever we go away I can’t wait to get home to my amazing Douglas mattress! So supportive, no pressure points and never even feel my husband turn over! LOVE LOVE!

My husband and I both LOVE our Douglas mattress. It’s like sleeping on a cloud […] It’s the perfect amount of firmness and after half a year on it, it’s just as good as day 1.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is Douglas’s sleep trial?

Douglas offers a 365-night sleep trial with your mattress purchase. After trying the mattress for at least 30 days, you can return it for a full refund at any time during the sleep trial window.

What happens to returned Douglas mattresses?

Returned Douglas mattresses are donated to nearby community organizations or picked up by a local recycling partner, depending on regional restrictions.

How firm is the Douglas mattress?

Douglas mattresses are considered to be medium-firm with minimal sink and consistent “hug” from the top layer, according to the third-party engineer testing we commissioned.

Where is the Douglas mattress made?

The Douglas foam mattress is made in Canada, with manufacturing facilities in Ontario and Alberta.

Do Douglas mattresses contain latex?

Douglas mattresses don’t contain latex. The Elastex® foam layer is made without the chemicals found in natural latex mattresses. This allergen-free alternative is just as supportive and responsive as natural latex.

How long is the Douglas mattress warranty?

Douglas offers a 20-year warranty for their mattresses. The Douglas mattress warranty covers repair or replacement in case of manufacturer errors.

Is the Douglas cover machine washable?

Yes. The machine-washable top cover has a 360° zipper for easy removal. Run it through the washing machine on a gentle cycle, then air dry or tumble dry on low. When the cover is dry, you can reattach it to the bottom cover in seconds without having to lift or move the mattress.

What’s the difference between Douglas Original and Douglas Alpine?

The Douglas Original and Douglas Alpine are made with the same foam layers. The Douglas Alpine has slightly thicker layers to provide more pressure-point relief and motion isolation. For added cooling, the cooling gel layer is enhanced with a phase-change material to better absorb and disperse heat to keep you cool at night.

What’s the difference between Douglas Original and Douglas Summit?

Both Douglas mattress models are made with Douglas’s award-winning construction. Douglas Summit has thicker foam layers to give the mattress an extra two inches of height compared to Douglas Original.

Designed to provide the most pressure-relief and motion isolation, Summit has an upgraded machine-washable top cover with cooling nanofibres. The cooling gel foam has also been infused with an advanced phase-change material, making Summit the coolest option in the Douglas lineup.
