Emma Original Hybrid composition
The Emma Original Hybrid is a 22 cm (8.6 inches) mattress crafted with a combination of layers designed to provide comfort, support, and breathability.
- Soft, washable cover: Convenient for cleaning, with a comfortable touch.
- Airflow foam layer: Promotes cooling and moisture-wicking for a fresh night’s sleep.
- Firm base foam: Offers firm support for undisturbed sleep.
- Pocket sprung base: Helps improve motion isolation and maintaining a healthy sleepy posture.
Here’s a more detailed look at each layer. 🔍
1. Soft and easy to wash cover
The Emma Original Hybrid mattress features a soft-to-touch cover, designed for comfort from the moment you lie down.
The cover is fully removable and machine-washable, so you can keep it fresh and clean without hassle.
We'd still recommend adding a waterproof mattress protector, though, which will elongate the lifespan of your mattress and protect it from dirt and bacteria.
2. Moisture-wicking Airflow foam layer
The top layer of open-cell foam allows air to flow freely through the mattress.
This design helps regulate temperature by dispersing moisture and humidity, ensuring you stay cool and dry throughout the night.
3. Firmer foam layer
Beneath the breathable foam, the mattress uses a durable foam that offers a firmer support.
This layer prevents the mattress from sagging or sinking, providing stability and a consistent sleep surface, so you can move freely without worrying about dips or discomfort.
4. Pocket spring base
The pocket spring system consists of 3-body-zone springs that work independently to reduce motion transfer.
This provides excellent motion isolation, so you won’t be disturbed by movements during the night.
These springs also contribute to spinal alignment and support, ensuring that your posture remains optimal while you sleep.
How comfortable is the Emma Original Hybrid mattress?
The Emma Original Hybrid mattress offers a comfortable sleep experience, thanks to its combination of high-quality foam layers and pocket springs.
The breathable top foam layer helps regulate temperature, keeping you cool, while the firmer base offers excellent support.
The pocket springs also improve motion isolation, making this mattress an ideal choice for couples.
Overall, the hybrid design ensures that sleepers of all types enjoy a comfortable night’s rest without dips or discomforts. 😴
According to customer reviews, users have praised the mattress for its balance of softness and support, making it suitable for a wide range of sleeping positions and preferences.
How firm is the Emma Original Hybrid mattress?
The Emma Original Hybrid is described as a medium-firm mattress, rated as 7 out of 10, where 1 is the softest and 10 is the firmest.
This makes it largely similar to the Emma Original mattress.
The balanced firmness is designed to provide optimal support for a variety of sleepers, though some lighter-weight side sleepers may find it a bit too firm and heavier-weight back sleepers or stomach sleepers may find it a tad too soft.
