Emma

The Emma Original mattress is Emma's signature mattress that's made up of three layers of foam. Emma provides a hugging embrace for your body while you sleep, which is great for back pain or joint problems because of the pressure relief. The bed has a medium firmness (6.5/10) with a bit of pushback. Emma originated in Germany but is manufactured in the UK, they've sold 700,000 plus mattresses in only 5 years, it's the UK's most-awarded mattress ​and has lately extended to Australia.
