Who genuinely benefits from a softer feel
Side sleepers, people under about 60 kg, and anyone who wakes with pressure marks or a dead arm are the classic candidates for a softer mattress. On your side, weight funnels through the shoulder and hip, the two widest points of the body, so a surface with enough give lets them settle in while the waist stays supported. Stomach sleepers and heavier bodies over about 100 kg usually do better one band firmer, on the firmness guide.
Soft mattresses in the Eastern Cape
There is no Mr Mattress store in the Eastern Cape yet, and we would rather say that plainly than pretend otherwise. We manufacture through our own and approved partner facilities in Gauteng, the Free State, Cape Town, East London, KwaZulu-Natal and Mpumalanga. Every order ships free to Gqeberha and East London and the rest of the Eastern Cape, usually within 3 to 7 working days, with outlying rural areas at the longer end of that range, and the 365 night home trial, with no minimum hold period, means your own bedroom becomes the test.
The honest Mr Mattress answer
We do not build a soft-through mattress, on purpose. The softest feel in the range is the Revive Memory Foam, from R4,899, a true medium with a contouring memory foam top over a 50 kg/m3 high-density core, deliberately stopping short of soft-through construction so the spine stays supported. The Comfort Foam, from R2,399, pairs a cushioned surface feel with a firm supportive core for a similar effect at a lower price.
What soft and plush mattresses cost in the Eastern Cape right now
When we checked pricing at major South African retailers in July 2026, soft and plush-marketed mattresses from brands like Cloud Nine ranged from around R3,800 at the entry level to R15,000 and beyond for premium plush models. The Mr Mattress Revive Memory Foam costs from R4,899, near the entry end of that range, without dropping to soft-through construction that sags early.
How the Mr Mattress trial compares
Cloud Nine offers a 100 night comfort trial. Mr Mattress gives 365 nights with no minimum hold period, so if a softer feel does not suit you, you find out for certain, on your own timeline, not someone else's return window.

Delivery to the Eastern Cape
Delivery is free. Free State customers: usually 1 to 3 working days. National orders: 3 to 7 working days depending on your area. the Eastern Cape falls in the national tier, so plan on 3 to 7 working days from order to bed, with outlying rural areas at the longer end of that range.
A soft feel across the Eastern Cape
Coastal Eastern Cape centres like East London and Gqeberha run milder, less extreme temperatures year-round than the province's interior, so a soft foam mattress holds a fairly consistent plush feel through most of the year without the sharper winter firming buyers in colder provinces notice.
Frequently asked questions
Who should sleep on a soft mattress in the Eastern Cape?
Side sleepers, people under about 60 kg, and anyone waking with pressure marks, numb arms or sore shoulders and hips. These sleepers need a surface with enough give to let the shoulder and hip settle in. Stomach sleepers, heavier bodies and most back sleepers should choose medium-firm or firmer instead.
Does Mr Mattress have a store in the Eastern Cape?
Not yet. Mr Mattress has stores across South Africa, with more opening, but none in the Eastern Cape at the moment. Every order includes a 365 night home trial instead, with no minimum hold period, so you can test a softer feel properly at home.

The Mr Mattress Revive Memory Foam, our softest feel, costs from R4,899, mattress only, the same price everywhere in South Africa. Delivery to the Eastern Cape is free, and every order includes the 365 night home trial.
