This is the 2nd mattress I had bought without trying it out first. The 1st one was a silent night mattress. After 5 years it had really degraded in comfort. I was having really bad lower back pain and I think the mattress was making it worse.
I looked at the Emma mattresses first but I just. Couldn't justify the price for a mattress that had such mixed reviews. I carefully looked at the reviews on here and decided to go for it.
When it arrives it was vacuum packaged and once opened fully gained it's shape. It says to leave it to air and gain maximum shape. I didn't notice any significant smell (and I have a sensitive nose) and I think allowing it to air helps (don't put sheets on it). I actually laid on it straight away and immediately could not believe how much it relieved the pressure points on my back. I laid there for 5 minutes and had no back pain.
I was concerned at first that it would be a bit too soft for me as my previous mattress was firmer (medium/firm) I'd say this one is medium. Well I can't tell you what an amazing sleep I had that night. In the morning my back pain was on a scale of 2-3 rather than a 9/10. As the weeks went on the back pain and stiffness diminished and I can say that I have done no physio and I'm not taking any pain meds. It's literally amazing what a new mattress can do and this one has really exceeded my expectations.
I gave it a few months before reviewing in case I changed my mind but I've become more and more impressed. I sleep so well on it. I've seen reviews saying the edges are really soft and seems to collapse when you sit on them. This does not happen when you sleep on it and if you need to sit on the edge just park you bum back a bit further!
I don't know how long the mattress will last but 5 years at least would suit me. I recommended rotating it every 1-2 weeks so that it maintains it's coils/foam and it's not heavy to move.
It is worth every penny and I'm really glad I bought it. I recommended it.
