New Mattress

My vote goes to SIMBA. Had been looking to replace ours for some time. Slept on one in an AirBNB and bought one on our return. Never regretted it.

Like a lot of people we have Emma as well.very comfy.

We bought an Emma Original mattress as it was a recommended Which? best buy. I cannot fault it. We have since bought two more Emma mattresses for other beds needing replacement mattresses, and visitors have commented on how comfortable they are. Emma often have them discounted.

I have found the Emma mattress not hot or sweaty unlike the previous mattresses. I must admit that was what concerned me.

We looked at Emma mattress reviews and spoke to a couple of friends who bought them but returned them. They certainly are cheap but since they are foam they are very hot and sweaty. Does all that sweat soak into the mattress?

Thank you for all your replies. Interesting to find that several of you have bought an Emma mattress as I had put the Emma on my list together with some others. I have been reading reviews this evening and the Simba Hybrid also seems to come out quite well with the Emma being considered a little softer and the Simba firmer but are both very similar.

I bought DD2 an Emma mattress a few years ago - she has spinal problems and found it fine. However her DH wanted a bigger bed so they now have a Tempur, which isn’t as ‘hot’ as she thought it would be. Again, she finds it ok.
I’ve a Dormeo, bought through a TV ad, only because of a very long guarantee and that it doesn’t need turning. I ordered the medium to firm and really wish I’d opted for the medium to soft. My hip has started to ache, but I think that may be the poor driving position in my new car.

Nearly a month ago we bought a new double mattress. It is a Harrison Spinks eco pillow top mattress. It felt wonderful in the showroom and we liked the fact it is all natural materials like wool, hemp etc. and all fully recyclable. We have a single HS bed in a spare room and every one who has slept in it loves it.

We had it from Dreams who give you 30-100 days to try it and will exchange it if you are not totally happy.

My husband loves it but he could sleep on a bed of nails! I find it so soft that if you sit on the side you could easily slip off. If I try to turn over there is no support and I feel like I am falling out of bed.

It cost £1500 so will sadly be exchanged next month.

We have bought 2 emma mattresses in the last year. One double and one kingsize. I have sciatica and also arthritis. Pleased so far.

I have Emma too. Its fairly light but I find it a bit soft though better for my hips. They have a long guarantee period where you can send it back for no reason. You can get reconditioned (?) ones which ate considerably cheaper.

I've had my mattress a couple of years now. It's a full foam emma mattress. I love it. My hip hasn't ached since I started sleeping on it. It is quite heavy, but you don't have to turn it, just rotate it which I can manage on my own. I would never go back to sleeping on a sprung mattress.
