I’ve been sleeping on the Tempur Pro Air SmartCool Plus medium-firm 25cm mattress for a while now, and it has genuinely transformed my sleep quality. The first thing I noticed was how supportive it feels—it has that classic Tempur contouring, but with a more modern, responsive feel that doesn’t leave you “sinking” too much. The medium-firm level strikes a perfect balance: soft enough to relieve pressure on my shoulders and hips, but firm enough to keep my spine aligned. The SmartCool cover is a standout feature. It has a noticeably cool touch from the moment you lie down, and it actually maintains that effect throughout the night. I tend to overheat, but this mattress has made a real difference—no more waking up warm or needing to flip the covers off. Motion isolation is excellent too. Whether someone gets in, gets out, or turns over, the movement barely carries, which is ideal for light sleepers. The 25cm height feels substantial and premium without being overly bulky, and the build quality is exactly what you’d expect from Tempur—solid, well-crafted, and luxurious. Overall: A fantastic upgrade if you want pressure relief, cooling, and high-end comfort in one mattress. It’s definitely an investment, but one that pays off every single night.

Hi I have an adjustable bed. brought my last Tempur mattress designed for adjustable beds about 8 years ago. I was sleeping less than an hour a night for 18 months and even scared to go to bed due to chronic pain. Being disabled you get VAT relief on items to help with your condition. When I purchased my first Tempur mattress I got VAT taken off when I purchased it. Due to not being able to sleep flat from 4 major spine and spinal cord surgeries all leaving me in more pain and worse off from surgery. We could not afford a new Tempur mattress really the only silver lining was we would get the VAT taken off went to same store, we live in same home. Staff said they don’t do it when you purchase in store anymore and it would be down by customer services. I gave them evidence and they sent that off when we brought the new mattress that is specifically designed for adjustable beds. I phoned after delivery to check about how much the payments would be with the VAT removed. But was very unhelpful and said it was a luxury purchase and not due VAT off. I explained that we confirmed before we brought it with the guys in the shop and they said it would be deducted through customer services. The mattress has work wonders and I’m now getting 3 hours sleep a night. Which is nearly four fold. The woman I spoke to probably 2 wks ago said a manager whom could deal with this was going to phone me at some point but still haven’t heard anything. We did everything right to ask and check.

Bought this mattress from Dreams almost one year ago. As with every new thing, you’re excited and see only the good parts, in this case, how confy the mattress is, how you don't feel when your partner moves, etc. But there's something really wrong with this mattress and this is not only my opinion, my wife strongly agrees with me. As long as you are alone in bed, Yes, it's amazing, you are floating, no pressure points, great sleep. But, and this is a big BUT: The mattress slowly sinks under your weight, taking the shape of your body. But what happens when two bodies are next to each other? The mattress obviously sinks, obviously in the middle of the bed, creating a massive "valley" and your bodies will be dragged at the bottom of that valley. You'll wake up in the night, like sitting in a hammock, glued to your partner. The sides of mattress are staying high and firm and the centre of the mattress will be at it's lowest. You will climb towards the side, trying to get out from the valley, and you'll find yourself back in again and again. You might think we are heavy people! Yeah right, I'm 72Kg and 1.87m that something like 11 stones and just over 6ft, and my Mrs is 62Kg, so I don't think we are overwhelming the mattress in any way. If you sleep alone in your bed, Yes, best thing the money can buy. If you are a couple, big NO! We've bought the tallest one, paid a lot of money, and not even one year later we are 100% it has to go, reason why I've decided to leave this review. Best of luck.

It does support most of your body rather well overall but if you are a man with wider shoulders you will wake up with shoulder and pain in your ribs without getting a good night's sleep. After spending a lot of money to upgrade to this bed I am left very disappointed as I have done nothing but toss and turn all night in discomfort. I will probably have to try and find a zoned mattress topper to cushion my shoulders which are like hen's teeth in the UK. For the sheer price of this mattress I would have thought the comfort layers would have been slightly thicker and I am a bit annoyed I will have to shop for more items to get a good night's sleep on it. We were sold this mattress believing that it would reduce pressure points but it's barely done that and compared to the old one and has put a lot of pressure on my spine and rib cage. This was after using the sleep match feature in-store so I am really hoping this mattress softens up a bit here in the problem areas. The whole gimmick about it being having cooling features is complete nonsense too, If anything it's a lot warmer than any bed I have had previously, but I sleep with a fan on so that's not the end of the world. Overall not all that impressed considering the price of it, considering I had to take finance out to pay for it too. If these mattresses had zoned support they would be top notch but I don't think they are built for men with wider shoulders.

It's been 2 years now, so here is a review after 2 years of sleeping on it. I am a larger lady who has many disabilities that cause a lot of bodily pain, I have Neuropathy, fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis, ME, spondylitis of the neck and spine and a crumbling spine, sciatica etc. I tell you this because it's very important to find that perfect mattress when you have physical disabilities. I can not tell you the difference this mattress has made to my life. As soon as I lay down on it, it was like heaven, it was like I was weightless and 2 years on it is still the same, every time I get on it, it feels as good as the first time. My pain levels at night decreased by a lot, i used to wake constantly with hip pain, since sleeping on this Emma Mattress I have not woke with hip pain once! my sleep is deeper and longer, which has made a massive difference in my everyday life. The mattress has zero lumps, bumps, springs, coils, it's just like a smooth cloud. The mattress is that fantastic and feels so good under your body that when I put my electric blanket on top of it, and I have a very expensive thick electric blanket, I hated the feel of it and had to take my electric blanket off. You will be just fine with your electric blanket on top of the mattress, but having fibromyalgia, they used to call fibromyalgia 'The princess and the pea disease' because you can feel every stitch, lump, bump ect and every stitch, lump and bump causes so much pain, but the Emma mattress feels like a smooth cloud, you actually feel weightless. It was the best decision I ever made to get this mattress, it was more expensive than any other mattress I have purchased previously, but it is worth so much more than that just to have a pain free, long, cosy nights sleep. It's also not to hot for menopause, I don't know why that myth was put out there but it's just fine temperature wise. I also bought my son one, he has cerebral palsy and he agrees with me about how amazing they are, especially if you suffer from any aches and pains. Just buy one, do it, you will be amazed how great they are.

I think the mattress is great but my wife thinks it is a little hard. I have not had any back ache since we bought the matress. Our previous mattress was killing my back and had become extremly unsupportive. The delivery staff were great as they brought the new mattress in and removed the old one. I would have never been able to move the old mattress so having the gentlemen take our wornout one away was really helpful. We left the Emma mattress to vent and take shape over the stipulated time. Not sure how we could ever have returned it though as the delicery staff removed the box it came in and I would never have been able to compress it into such a small roll again. The extensive strong plastic wrap retained the compression forces which I imagine were processed at the factory so I can not think how it could be completed at home. I love the mattress and have slept well since it was delivered and the back ache has not returned.

We bought the Emma Hybrid AirGrid Mattress in October as a replacement for our king-sized Sloom mattress from South Africa after relocating to the UK, and we've been extremely happy with the experience so far. The mattress strikes a great balance in firmness - it's supportive without being too hard, and we've had no back pain since using it. Sleep quality has been noticeably better, and it's been comfortable from the very first night without needing a long 'breaking in' period. Delivery was smooth and right on schedule, which made the whole purchase experience stress-free. What really stood out for us was the price as it was significantly more affordable than other mattresses in the same range, yet the quality hasn't felt compromised at all. Overall, we're very pleased with our purchase and would confidently recommend the Emma Hybrid AirGrid to anyone looking for a high-quality, comfortable mattress at a great price.

Having slept on an Emma memory foam mattress a few times and loved it when staying with family I was expecting great things from what I assumed would be an upgraded and better product. As well as the experience on the memory foam mattress I’d spent weeks reading reviews and was confident this mattress would deliver on the three things we most wanted - comfort, minimal motion transfer, and a cool sleep. Sad to say my wife and I are disappointed on two of those things. Comfort wise I’ve no grumbles, but I’m a fidget and mover in bed and my wife reckons it’s like sleeping on a boat, and to be honest, I don’t find it any better than the 30 yr old mattress we both got rid of. In addition we both find it quite a bit warmer than the old mattress as well. With the pocket springs covered by layers of various foams it is nothing like the memory foam mattress we’d tried at our daughters. I’m disappointed that I can easily feel the springs through the sides and bottom (just a couple of layers of fabric) - in fact it actually feels quite cheaply made to me. I guess I should have expected this from a roll up mattress, but no one mentioned this in any of the dozens of reviews I read! Maybe I’m just fussy, but I wouldn’t get another one.

I’m a bit disappointed with this product. We previously owned an Emma Original mattress purchased in 2020, which was the best mattress we’ve ever had. Based on that experience, I expected this one to be the same or at least similar. However, despite being called “Original,” it is nothing like the one we had before. The old mattress was entirely memory foam, whereas this one has pocket springs with only a thin layer of foam on top, which makes it feel quite firm. Had I realised this, I would never have purchased it. In addition, because the underside consists of hard springs, the mattress slides on the base and needs to be pushed back into place regularly. MattressOnline have offered to exchange the mattress for a different one but as we would be unable to test the mattress, we would simply be swapping it for another unknown model that may not be any better, so we have decided to keep it. However, this will definitely be the last time we purchase an Emma mattress
