What material is Emma Hybrid Mattress made of?
Emma Hybrid Mattress is made of high-quality materials and fabrics that have stood the test of time, while modern technologies and innovations bring it to life. Strict quality controls guarantee excellent quality. Unlike the Premium mattress, the Hybrid mattress offers more comfort thanks to its foam core and micro coil technology.
The core of the Emma Hybrid Mattress is made of Supportive HRX cold foam. HRX stands for High Resiliency Extra. This layer is designed to prevent spinal misalignments and provide you with optimal comfort, rest and relaxation in any lying position. Learn more about What is polyurethane foam? Properties and advantages.
Pressure-relieving viscoelastic memory foam
We’ve always said that the perfect night’s sleep isn’t rocket science – but in this case it is. Developed by astrophysicists, this adaptable layer works with Airgocell® to relieve pressure and reduce motion transfer for out-of-this-world comfort.
Micro coils
On the memory foam there is a layer of micro coils for better body support. 2cm. high, very breathable and comfortable layer, which combines both foam and pocket spring systems.
Airgocell® Memory Foam
On the spring pack there is a layer of Airgocell® Memory Foam, which increases comfort and significantly reduces the load on muscles and joints during sleep.
Point Elastic Airgocell® is the layer that provides good air circulation and allows the mattress to breathe. Thanks to this layer, the mattress does not feel hot.
Our groundbreaking Point Elastic Airgocell® technology enhances breathability and regulates temperature by absorbing and then evaporating sweat – so rising temperatures won’t have you disturb your nights.
The Emma Hybrid Mattress is covered with Emma UltraDry Premium Cover. The award-winning Emma UltraDry breathable cover is both refreshing and practical. This temperature-regulating cover is moisture-wicking, easily removable, and washable.
How firm is Emma Hybrid Mattress?
Like the rest of the manufacturer’s models, the Hybrid is defined as a medium-firm mattress. This model is more in the range of 6.5 out of 10, where 10 is a very firm mattress
How does it feel?
After testing the Emma Hybrid Mattress, we can safely say that overall it’s a pretty comfortable mattress. You don’t find that ‘bounce’ effect with it, like you do with other hybrid mattresses. If you miss that, you can opt for the Emma Premium. One minus point is the lack of support in the hip area, so it probably won’t be the first choice for back and stomach sleepers. However, we have good news for heat sleepers, because the mattress can regulate the temperature well during sleep.
Is it suitable for any bed?
According to the manufacturer, the Emma Hybrid Mattress is suitable for any bed base, but it is recommended to use a slatted frame with a distance of 7.5 cm between the slats. Also, keep in mind that a base can slightly change the feel of the mattress. In our tests, we have found that the mattress feels slightly different and supports slightly differently on different bed frames. When the mattress is on a slatted frame, it feels more comfortable, while on a solid base, you feel like you are better supported.
Does it have a removable cover?
One of the advantages we highlighted in our review of the Emma Hybrid Mattress is its removable cover. The cover can be replaced effortlessly and regular washing will keep your bed hygienic. It’s a good idea to use a mattress protector as well, as it can extend the life of your new mattress. Here are 8 tips on how to keep your mattress clean.
Does it have a home test period?
The manufacturer is so confident of its materials and the comfort of its mattress that it offers a 200-night trial period. This way you can find out for yourself in the comfort of your own home if it’s right for you, and if not, all you have to do is fill out the return form and Emma will take care of the rest, at no cost to you. The length of the trial period depends on your location: 365 nights in the US and Canada, while UK buyers get 200 nights. See below for more details:

Is it suitable for couples?
The motion isolation on this mattress is amazing. During our tests we found that no movement was felt, even when there was a big difference in the weight of the partners.
Is it suitable for children? Emma Hybrid Mattress Review
Recent studies have shown that medium-firm and firm mattresses without an additional memory foam layer are suitable for growing children (3-7 years). Therefore, Emma Hybrid Mattress is not suitable for your children.

How thick is Emma Hybrid Mattress?

10-Year Guarantee Terms
This guarantee is applicable to Emma mattresses that have been purchased on www.emma-sleep.co.uk or through one of our licensed partners and with delivery to a UK address.

19.2.b Any permanent sags or dips that occur within your mattress despite correct usage. The indentation should be greater than 2.5cm and visible to the naked eye. This does not include standard softening of the mattress after extensive use and is only deemed faulty if a permanent indent is apparent.
19.2.c Any cracks or hollows in the foam of your mattress. These need to be reported within the first 6 months of receiving your mattress to be identified as a manufacturing fault and the onus of checking the product is with the purchaser. After this point, we are not be able to identify if this was a production error or created through improper use, which will invalidate the 10-year guarantee for this type of damage.
19.2.d The mattress not inflating to the correct size once removed from its vacuum packaging. We work to the industry standard of a leeway of 2cm across the length, width and depth of the mattress.

19.2.e Cover damage, including damaged zip or faulty stitching resulting from improper manufacturing. If just the cover is damaged, we reserve the right to send a brand-new replacement cover, rather than exchanging the mattress core which remains undamaged. The guarantee does not extend to general wear and tear of the cover over its period of use.
19.3 If your mattress develops any of the faults outlined above within its 10-year guarantee, we require photographic evidence depicting the fault in question. This needs to be sent to our customer service department who will be able to assist in how the fault can be demonstrated through photographic evidence. If there is not sufficient proof that any of the criteria above has been met, we will not be able to offer an exchange of the mattress in question.
19.4 In the event of the mattress being proved as defective, a replacement mattress will be shipped to you in accordance with our current delivery time frames. The faulty mattress will also be collected from you free of charge.
19.5 The replacement of the faulty mattress does not reset your guarantee period and the 10-year guarantee will cover from the original purchase date. For example, if the mattress should develop a fault after 5 years of use, the new mattress will be covered for the remaining 5 years of your 10-year guarantee.
19.6 Should the mattress develop a fault within the guarantee, we will exchange the mattress and a refund will not be possible. However, should you go through this process 3 times, with two exchanged mattresses also developing faults within the 10-year period, you will then be entitled to a full refund of the purchase price upon its collection.
19.7 The refurbished mattresses (purchased through Wowcher, GoGroopie, Amazon and Ebay) come with a 14-day trial. These mattresses are covered by a 6-month guarantee, from the date of delivery, with the other terms of the warranty reflecting that of a new mattress.

19.11 We will need your order details in order to check the legitimacy of the order and process the exchange accordingly. Failure to provide any relevant details, combined with the failure to locate the order on our system, will result in the assumption that this was brought from an unverified third party and as such we are not responsible for the exchange of the item.

Verdict for Emma Hybrid Mattress.
Having slept on the Emma Hybrid Mattress enough times, we can safely say that the manufacturer has not disappointed with this latest model and remains true to the high quality it offers. The mattress feels just perfect for side sleepers and hot sleepers. Thanks to the edge support and motion isolation, it is also suitable for couples, even with a big weight difference. The downside is that the mattress is not very suitable for heavier back and stomach sleepers due to the lack of support in the hip area. For them we would recommend the Emma Premium or Original mattress.
You can buy it with 0% interest in installments.
