Brunswick was introduced by GoodMorning.com in late 2018 as a classic spring mattress, made for modern Canadians. The design, build, and comfort are meant to be refreshingly simple and familiar while cherry picking some of the best innovations in modern mattress making (e.g. hemp-based fabric, zoned pocketed springs). The spring-foam hybrid is sold online, compressed in a box, and shipped directly to customers’ doors throughout the country.

Thanks to modern compression methods and the rising popularity of the bed-in-a-box, mattresses can now be shipped far more efficiently and conveniently than ever before. Customers no longer need to take a day off work to accept a delivery. Boxed beds are now delivered with the same convenience as most Amazon orders. Some bed-in-a-box companies even offer same-day delivery to certain areas.
Brunswick uses FedEx to deliver their mattresses directly to customers’ doors. Shipping is free for the great majority of Canadians. In some cases, the delivery can even be left on a porch or deck while the customer is away from home. Customers can expect their new Brunswick mattress to arrive within 10 business days after placing their order. Brunswick does not ship to the U.S.
Like many bed-in-a-box companies, Brunswick heavily promotes their in-home sleep trial. At 120 nights, this sleep trial is one of the longest in Canada. In the event of a return, Brunswick offers free mattress pickup and a full refund.
Brunswick Mattress: Out of the Box

Out of the Box | Brunswick |
---|---|
Delivered in a box: | Yes |
Box dimensions: | 16” x 16” x 63” (Twin - Queen); 16” x 16” x 79” (King, Cal. King) |
Box opening: | Scissors required |
Box/mattress fitting: | Tight |
Protection layers: | 4 |
Expansion time: | 6 minutes |
The Brunswick mattress was delivered to us within the expected time frame. The mattress was well protected by heavy-duty plastic layers within the box to protect the product during shipping.
Customers will definitely need scissors or a knife to open the box. To prevent potential harm to your new mattress, remember to be extra careful when using sharp objects to remove any packaging.
Once opened, the compressed mattress is easy to remove from the box. We recommend a ‘tip-and-pull’ motion to slowly slide out the mattress from its cardboard packaging. Simply tip the box from a vertical position down onto its side, and then pull the lightweight box away from the bundled mattress. We recommend doing this process in the room where you intend to use the mattress.
The Brunswick mattress is protected with four layers of heavy-duty plastic – one to compress it in a vacuum seal, and another three to keep it tightly rolled in a cylinder shape.
Customers will need to unwrap the first layer in order to unroll the mattress, which will still be in its compressed form. Some helpful advice at this stage is to place the rolled up mattress onto the designated bed frame. Next, like the end of a roll of tape, find and peel back the outer layer of plastic. You can use the momentum of unrolling the compressed mattress along the bed frame to help remove the rest of this layer, which could be a few meters long. After completing this process, the mattress will rest unrolled before you.
Next, cut the final layer of plastic. The vacuum seal now broken, the Brunswick mattress will quickly begin to decompress. Remove this final layer of plastic as the mattress expands to its full height. With the Brunswick mattress, full expansion took 6 minutes.

Brunswick is a 12-inch spring-and-foam hybrid mattress. By combining different materials, foam densities, and firmness levels, Brunswick has designed a configuration that offers reasonable comfort, cooling, and support.
The Brunswick mattress is available only in one firmness option. This is standard for the one-size-fits-all approach commonly used by bed-in-a-box companies.
Brunswick Mattress Layers

The Brunswick mattress contains five primary layers with a few other transition materials. Like many of the multi-layer boxed mattresses on the market today, each layer of the Brunswick mattress works with the others to create a distinct level of comfort and support.
- First layer: 0.25 inches of holofibre fill. This fluffy and lightweight material fills the tufting of the cover and gives the mattress its distinct shape and initial softness.
- Second layer: 0.75 inches of super-soft gel foam. This first layer of foam is notable for its softness, contributing to the pillowy feel and comfort you experience as you lie down on the mattress. Layer density: 1.8 lbs/ft³.
- Third layer: 1 inch of cooling gel memory foam. This upper layer works with the surrounding foam to provide comfort and heat regulation. Foam density: 2.5 lbs/ft³.
- Fourth layer: 1 inch of high-density zoned eco-foam. This soy-infused transition layer provides body contouring and pressure-point relief in the neck, shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees. Divided into three sections, the central zone has increased firmness to complement the zoned springs described below. The foam is created from a blend of traditional polyurethane and environmentally friendly soy oil. Foam density: 1.8 lbs/ft³.
- Fifth layer: 8 inches of multi-tempered pocketed springs with a 3-inch foam encasement perimeter. This layer of individually wrapped springs contributes substantially to the mattresses perceived firmness, as well as its levels of support and overall integrity. The spring design prevents motion transfer due to its independent action. Like the foam layer immediately above it, this layer is zoned. The central third has thicker springs that take more weight to compress. The entire layer is surrounded by a rigid foam encasement to enhance edge support. Coil count (queen): 828.
Brunswick Mattress Cover

Appearance
The Brunswick mattress has a distinct cover that makes it instantly recognizable among its competitors in the online mattress industry. The white Euro-top cover is tufted in channels from end to end along its top portion and sidewalls. This gently lifts the fabric, making the mattress seem soft and inviting even before you lie down. Most notably, the green checkered gusset spans the full perimeter and gives Brunswick its colour and personality.
Materials
Brunswick’s white cover is a modern blend of polyester, hemp, and spandex. These stretchable and breathable materials are further strengthened by hemp, a material that few other bed-in-a-box mattresses have yet to adopt. Hemp is naturally antimicrobial and has three times the tensile strength of cotton. The Brunswick top cover is not machine washable and can be spot cleaned only.

Feel & Firmness
The Brunswick mattress is classified as medium-firm. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), it comes in at a 6.2 / 10 on the firmness spectrum. This is due to the three zones of pocketed steel springs. In general, spring and hybrid mattresses are known for being more firm than their foam counterparts.

Motion Isolation
Motion isolation in hybrid mattresses is usually very good, and a worthwhile benefit for customers who share their bed with a partner. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), minimal motion transfer was detected with the Brunswick mattress: it rated 6.7 /10 on the motion isolation scale.

Edge Support
Innerspring mattresses are known for their edge support, especially when compared to foam beds. In fact, this topic is commonly brought up by mattress shoppers deciding between the two types. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Brunswick mattress has an edge support rating at 5.8 / 10. This is above-average for a bed-in-a-box mattress.

Bounce
Mattresses containing springs are known for having much better bounce compared to their foam counterparts. According to the testing conducted by third-party engineers (commissioned by us), the Brunswick mattress ranked 5.6 / 10 on the bounce scale.

Who buys a Brunswick mattress?
Perhaps more than any other mattress-in-a-box, Brunswick will appeal to shoppers who are still a little hesitant about buying their bed from an online retailer. That’s due to the generous home trial, the wealth of in-depth information online, and the overall simplicity of the product relative to other brands.
In this way, Brunswick has a disproportionately high appeal among customers looking for a supportive spring mattress, especially those who think mattresses were made better 20 years ago. Both the construction and the materials are presented in simple, straightforward terms; they are easy for the average shopper and non-industry insider to grasp and factor into their purchase decisions. Finally, the competitively low price point will be hard for shoppers to overlook when comparing Brunswick to some of its online competitors, especially on top of the generous 120-night sleep trial.
For these reasons, Brunswick is Mattress Reviews’ Top Spring Mattress Under $1,000.
Buy Brunswick if you want:
- A spring mattress with lots of support
- A mattress made in Canada
- A Euro-top cover with cooling foam
- A long sleep trial
- A competitive price for a spring bed
