Douglas Mattress Construction
Height | Layers | Machine-Washable Cover | Country of Origin |
|---|---|---|---|
10" | 3 | Yes | Canada |
The Douglas Original is a medium-firm combination foam mattress that stands 10" tall and comes in one firmness option. It's advertised as medium-firm, and third-party engineer testing that we commissioned confirmed this.
Mattress Layers
The Canadian-made Douglas Original has 3 layers of foam of different densities, each serving a specific purpose in the overall performance of the mattress.
- 1st Layer: 2" ecoLight® cooling gel foam to offer a memory-foam-like feel, which provides body-contouring comfort and pressure relief. The cooling gel infusion also makes this layer breathable and cool to the touch.
- 2nd Layer: 2" Elastex® transition foam, which adds a level of bounciness and responsiveness similar to latex, while being latex-free.
- 3rd Layer: 6" of motion-isolation support foam that provides support, stability, and significantly reduces motion transfer across the mattress. This high-density base helps to minimize disturbances from movements on the other side of the bed, which is one reason why all Douglas mattresses are known for their great motion isolation.
Mattress Cover
Each Douglas mattress comes with a distinctive white cover featuring a mountain design and a bold red zipper. Made with CoolSense® fabric woven with Infinitex™ fibres, the cover is designed to wick away moisture and help maintain a cooler sleeping surface. The top cover is fully removable and machine washable, making it easy to keep the mattress clean and fresh.
Mattress Testing
Made in
To ensure our mattress reviews are thorough and trustworthy, we buy the products ourselves and have them tested by independent licensed engineers (commissioned by us) with no stake in the results.
These third-party engineers apply a consistent testing process to every mattress using a detailed framework. Every mattress is tested the same way, whether it's foam or hybrid. Because these types perform differently, we rate them on separate scales to ensure the scores are fair and meaningful.
We believe independent testing is essential to producing reliable and meaningful comparisons. That's why all test results are reviewed and signed off by an APEGA-certified engineer, operating under a strict code of ethics.
We use the testing results and over 40 criteria to build our scoring methodology.
Tests and reviews without this level of professional oversight may be more prone to errors and unintended bias.
Firmness
The Douglas Original scored 6.7/10 on firmness, placing it in the medium-firm range. It offers balanced support that should work for back, side, and stomach sleepers. Medium-firm mattresses are great choices for guest rooms and people who share a bed, as they appeal to a wide range of body types and sleep styles.
Edge Support
Foam mattresses are not typically known for having above-average edge support, but the Douglas Original bucks that trend. Receiving a very good 7.8/10 score for this category, this mattress provides consistent support along the perimeter, which is helpful for sitting or sleeping near the edge.
Cooling Features
Our mattress reviewers awarded the Douglas Original a cooling feature score of 5.0/10. This score is calculated based on the features below:
- CoolSense® cover helps wick away moisture to keep the surface cool and dry
- Open-cell foam, which helps improve the breathability of the mattress
- ecoLight® cooling gel foam layer promotes better temperature regulation
- Elastex® layer provides breathable, latex-like support with enhanced airflow

Motion Isolation
The Douglas Original mattress received a great motion isolation score of 8.3/10. This mattress limits movement across the surface, making it a strong pick for couples or light sleepers.
Want even more motion isolation? Consider upgrading to the Douglas Summit, which received an even better motion isolation score of 8.8/10.
Bounce
With a score of 3.1/10, the Douglas Original has minimal bounce. This contributes to a more stable, motion-absorbing surface, which is usually good for those who are easily woken from movements on the bed. Those seeking more bounce and responsiveness may prefer a coil-based mattress instead.
Delivery & Other Policies
Douglas mattresses ship free to most locations across Canada via FedEx. Orders are sent from regional warehouses in Alberta or Ontario and typically arrive within 2–10 business days. Some remote areas may incur additional delivery fees.
Each mattress is compressed, sealed in two layers of durable plastic, and packaged in a cardboard box for safe transport. After unboxing, the mattress expands to its full size within minutes and is ready to sleep on the same night.
Douglas provides a 365-night sleep trial, one of the longest in Canada. If the mattress isn't right for you, Douglas will arrange free pickup and issue a full refund. Returned mattresses are either donated to local charities or recycled, depending on regional programs and availability.
