Best Quilt Australia was born from a simple frustration: finding reliable, unbiased information about bedding in Australia was surprisingly difficult. With so many international sites offering generic advice that didn't account for our unique climate conditions, we decided to create the resource we wished existed—a comprehensive guide specifically for Australian sleepers.

Our journey began in Melbourne during the unpredictable winter of 2024, when our founder spent weeks researching the perfect quilt to combat those frigid July nights. After wading through countless reviews, confusing GSM ratings, and conflicting advice about wool versus down fill powers, the idea for Best Quilt Australia was formed. We realised that Australians needed a dedicated platform that understood the nuances of our climate—from the humid summers of Brisbane to the alpine winters of the Snowy Mountains.

Our Mission

We believe that quality sleep shouldn't require a degree in textile science. Our mission is to demystify the world of quilts and bedding, providing clear, honest information that helps you make confident purchasing decisions. We evaluate every product based on real-world performance, considering factors like tog ratings, fill power specifications, baffle box construction, and long-term durability.

What sets us apart is our commitment to the Australian context. We test quilts through our actual seasons, assess how different materials perform in varying humidity levels, and consider the practical aspects of care and maintenance that matter to Australian households. We know the difference between a 500 GSM microfibre and a 350 GSM wool quilt, and we can explain why that matters for your specific situation.

What We Do

  • In-Depth Research: We spend hours examining fill compositions, stitch patterns, and construction quality to provide accurate assessments.
  • Climate-Specific Advice: Our recommendations account for Australia's diverse climate zones, from tropical to temperate regions.
  • Honest Comparisons: We compare products fairly, highlighting both strengths and limitations without favour.
  • Educational Content: Our guides explain bedding terminology, care instructions, and selection criteria in plain language.
  • Regular Updates: We continuously review new products and update our recommendations as the market evolves.

Our Values

Transparency is at the heart of everything we do. We're upfront about our affiliate relationships—when you purchase through our links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This supports our work while ensuring our reviews remain honest and independent. We never accept payment for positive reviews, and our recommendations are based solely on product merit.

We're also passionate about sustainability in bedding. We actively research and promote eco-friendly options, from GOTS-certified organic cotton covers to ethically sourced Australian wool and responsibly harvested down. We believe that a good night's sleep shouldn't come at the cost of environmental responsibility.
