What are Emma mattresses?
Emma mattresses are more than just memory foam mattresses – they are made of foam layers and they have been designed so that they can be packaged in a cardboard box for easy delivery. They use a vacuum process to compress and roll the mattress and they come in a small box that is not very heavy.
The mattresses are easy to set up. You get it out of the box and let it roll out on the bed. Then it gradually fills up with air and forms a normal mattress. Surprisingly, once it is reinflated, the mattress is quite firm and you would never be able to tell that it had come out of a small box.
“The Emma Comfort Mattress offers point-elastic caving that enables an ideal and unique fit for your body. As a result, your spine stays straight while at the same time offering you the necessary amount of support and comfort. The innovative eco-friendly top layer optimally relieves the individual body parts and guarantees a cooling effect while you sleep thanks to its breathability.”

FAQs about Emma mattresses:
How long are Emma mattresses supposed to last?
Since they come with a 10 year warranty, you can expect your mattress to last for a long time. In fact, you may need to replace your mattress before that, but you will not be able to get a refund if you have to replace your mattress earlier, since the warranty does not cover normal wear and tear.
Who owns Emma sleep?
Emma was founded in Frankfurt, Germany in 2015 and is now available in 21 different countries. The company headquarters are still in Frankfurt and the company has 302 employees. It is a part of the Bettzeit Group which is a European mattress supplier.
Where are Emma mattresses manufactured?
Emma mattresses are made in different countries depending on where they are sold. For example, in Europe the mattresses are made in Germany, but North American mattresses are made in the USA. It is not clear where Emma mattresses for the Australian market are made. The Emma website only writes that the mattresses were designed in Germany without saying where they are manufactured. According to Canstar Blue, they are not Australian made.
Is an Emma mattress worth it?
Emma mattresses are very reasonably priced and have had very good reviews. It is generally thought that a mattress should be replaced after 7 years or when it stops giving good support. Since they come with a 10 year warranty you can expect to keep your mattress for a normal amount of time.
Not all of the reviews are good as some people find the mattresses rather hot and others could not get used to the firmness. It is a good idea to take advantage of the 100-day trial period to be sure that you like the mattress. If you find the mattress comfortable, then it is well worth buying, especially if you wait until they are on sale.
Conclusion
Emma mattresses are designed in Germany but manufactured in a number of countries. They are sold online through the Emma website and come packaged in a cardboard box. They are very easy to set up and have won awards all over the world. They are competitively priced and often have discounts, making them one of the cheaper mattresses on the market.
