Testing Team Takeaways

To test the Eve the original mattress we have people from our testing team take a closer look at the mattress and form their own opinions. Below is their observations.

Enjoying the simplicity of the Eve Original mattress was an unexpected pleasure. As someone who loves the familiar comfort routine and sticks to a back-sleeping position, I found the mattress to be a supportive haven. The medium-firm level, hitting around a 6.5-7/10, proved perfectly suitable for maintaining that essential lumbar support without feeling like I was sinking into the bed. This is a crucial aspect for back sleepers like me, as it ensures my spine remains aligned throughout the night. Despite a lighter weight category, the memory foam layer provided just the right amount of pressure relief around the shoulders and hips, contouring to my body’s form while the seven-zone support kept everything balanced and secure.

What also impressed me was the cooling feature of the Evecomfort® top layer. Being someone who tends to sleep on the warmer side, I appreciated that the mattress stayed reasonably cool, thanks to its open-cell design that promoted airflow. Even though it doesn't boast the advanced cooling technologies of some hybrid models, it managed to keep my temperature comfortably regulated throughout the night. For those like myself who share the bed with lively felines, the mattress's exceptional motion isolation was a real blessing, ensuring my peaceful slumber wasn’t interrupted as they settled down for the night. Overall, this foam mattress managed to combine simplicity with effectiveness, perfectly suiting my sleeping preferences and maintaining quality rest without any overcomplicated frills.

Why our sleep experts loved it

Finding the right mattress is no small feat. With an endless sea of choices, all claiming to provide the ultimate sleep experience, Eve Sleep's Original Foam Mattress enters the arena as an accessible yet well-engineered foam option. Unlike flashy hybrid models boasting complex coil systems, the Eve Original keeps things simple-a three-layer foam structure designed for comfort, support, and longevity. But does this stripped-back approach pay off? After thoroughly testing the mattress and analysing key performance metrics, here's my in-depth take.

Construction & Build Quality - Simplicity with Purpose

The Eve Original is a three-layer all-foam mattress, standing at 24cm in height-a slightly thinner profile than some of its premium competitors, but still substantial enough to inspire confidence. Eve has taken a minimalist but effective approach to construction, using carefully selected foam layers rather than stuffing it with unnecessary extras.

  • Top Layer - Evecomfort® Foam: A springier alternative to traditional memory foam, this layer is designed to respond quicker and feel less “sink-in” than conventional foam. It's also open-cell, meaning airflow is improved to prevent heat build-up.
  • Second Layer - Memory Foam: The memory foam layer serves as the primary pressure-relieving component, contouring to the body while supporting key areas like the shoulders, hips, and lower back.
  • Base Layer - Zoned Support Foam: The foundational layer features seven contour zones, designed to support different parts of the body with varying levels of firmness, maintaining proper spinal alignment.

This approach isn't revolutionary, but it is effective. Eve has clearly prioritized breathability, responsiveness, and support without overcomplicating the design.

Firmness & Comfort - A Universally Appealing Feel?

Eve has pitched this mattress at a medium-firm level, which typically suits the widest range of sleepers. Rated around 6.5-7/10 on the firmness scale, it leans slightly toward the firmer side compared to traditional memory foam models.

  • Back sleepers should feel well-supported, with lumbar reinforcement preventing the lower back from sinking too deeply.
  • Side sleepers may find it slightly firm, especially if they prefer a more cushioned feel around the hips and shoulders.
  • Stomach sleepers will appreciate the supportive base layer, which prevents hip misalignment-a common issue with softer memory foam beds.

The Evecomfort® layer is really important here, offering a responsive surface that prevents the “stuck” feeling associated with some foam mattresses. If you enjoy memory foam but dislike excessive sinkage, this mattress provides a nice balance.

Temperature Regulation - Does It Sleep Cool?

One of the biggest concerns with memory foam mattresses is heat retention, and while Eve doesn't claim to have ground-breaking cooling tech, its open-cell top layer does help with airflow.

Compared to older, dense memory foam beds, this model doesn't trap heat as aggressively. However, it's still a foam mattress, so it won't have the same breathability as a hybrid or innerspring design. If you're an especially hot sleeper, you might want to pair this with moisture-wicking bedding for added cooling.

Edge Support & Motion Isolation - Strengths & Weaknesses

Motion Isolation - Ideal for Couples

As expected from an all-foam mattress, motion transfer is minimal. If you sleep with a restless partner, their movements are unlikely to wake you up. The foam layers effectively absorb and isolate motion, making this a great choice for couples.

Edge Support - Decent but Not Exceptional

One of the weaker points of this mattress is its edge support. While the high-density foam base prevents total collapse, there is some compression when sitting on the edge. If you frequently sit or sleep near the edge of the bed, you might notice this more than someone who sleeps toward the centre.

Durability & Long-Term Performance

Eve offers a 10-year warranty, indicating confidence in the mattress's longevity. Foam durability can vary widely depending on density, and while this mattress should hold up well under normal use, heavier individuals (over 100kg / 220 lbs) may experience faster compression over time.

Given that high-density foams tend to last between 7-10 years, this mattress falls within the expected lifespan for a premium foam model.

Value for Money - A Smart Investment?

At its price point, the Eve Original competes directly with brands like Simba, Nectar, Origin, Sleepsoul and Emma. While it doesn't have the hybrid tech or deep layering of pricier models, its no-fuss, well-engineered design makes it a strong contender for those wanting a straightforward, high-quality foam mattress.

The biggest selling points are its responsiveness, pressure relief, and motion isolation, making it a great choice for couples, back sleepers, and those who dislike overly sink-in memory foam. However, if you need extra cooling tech or firmer edge support, there are better options at higher price points.

Ultimately...

The Eve Original Foam Mattress is a well-balanced, no-nonsense option that delivers pressure relief, motion isolation, and durable support in a streamlined design. While it won't cater to every sleeper, it's a fantastic choice for those who want a high-quality foam mattress without unnecessary gimmicks.

When I ordered the original mattress, there was a slight mishap. I had paid the 35 for nominated day and removal of my old mattress. However on delivery day I had received no email or delivery information. I called Eve to find out what was happening. I spoke with Liam who informed me that my order had not gone through the system correctly and that the particular mattress that I ordered was out of stock. Liam was absolutely brilliant in keeping me informed as he looked into things for me. Liam was going to arrange for the delivery of another mattress to be delivered a day later. I eventually got my mattress 2 days later and I must say I am not disappointed. The mattress was delivered and my old one removed by a very helpful delivery team. The mattress was easy to open and the unpacking process has to be seen to be believed. This is a great mattress, very comfortable and my partner is having the best nights sleep he has had in a long while...... We are very happy with our purchase and thanks to Liam for sorting things out.

The mattress itself is just right for me, medium firm is the perfect level of firmness, no pressure points triggered either, providing the right amount of support all over. When sitting on the edge of it, it stays put and bounces back very quickly. I have had it for 2 months on my fixed bed in the caravan that is my temporary new home for a few months on my way to my new place and possibly for another 2 to 3 years whilst refurbushing an old place eco style and starting in permaculture, self sufficiency, self sustainability as much as one can. So far it has not kept me too warm and fended off the night cold. Once the packaging opened the mattress plumped up in less hours than anticipated. It has kept its shape, it has not curled up at the edges nor has the cover rolled over the edges. It has stayed put perfectly. Price wise, I can't fault it. Better, much better than expected, I am very impressed.

Although I love the Eve mattresses and have never had better, the experience I received with this order was shocking. I paid 50 to have next day delivery and for my old mattress to be taken away. Not only did it take weeks for my mattress to arrive with a lot of frustrating chasing at my end, when the mattress finally did arrive, the delivery man lied about whether he would be able to access my property and how long for which meant yet another delay for the date to be rearranged. I asked customer service for a refund of the 50 I paid for speedy delivery as it had been anything but speedy, but they fobbed me off with a generic reply about waiting for the full experience to conclude. Still no refund. But, love the mattress.

Brilliant mattress, had our doubts about spending so much money on a foam mattress, but this is no ordinary foam mattress, sleep comes so naturally now and even forgot it was an eve mattress and...I have a degenerative spine condition and my back used to wake me up all the time...I now sleep straight through the night and even find the quality of sleep is better than ever before. My sciatica doesn't start hurting until after an hour of getting up. I always sleep on my side and on our old mattress I would wake up with very bad shoulder pain, now it's not a problem sleeping on my side. Thank you eve sleep...

I love this mattress. It's like lying on air. There are no pressure points and because if this it reduces my pain I've always had on other traditional mattresses. In my 46 years on a traditional sprung mattress I've never experienced comfort like the original eve mattress. It is easy to turn, not too heavy. There are no areas where it is starting to sag. I wish I'd bought this years ago. My sleep is much better quality, and pain free. There is no doubt in my mind that this is the best mattress on the market, I would recommend it highly without hesitation.

We went on holiday a little while ago and had such a great nights sleep we had to ask the owner of the holiday cottage what type of mattress we had been sleeping was!! Queue the Eve Original!! Now at 7 months pregnant and seeing that is was on sale we finally took the plunge and so glad we did. We are sleeping much better, the 4am nip to the loo no longer wakes up my husband, and his 5am pit stop no longer wakes me!! Its great value for money compared to a lot of similar mattresses on the market, and quick delivery, we would thoroughly recommend.

I bought a mattress from Eve for my daughter as she was due to have a new one. Few months later we want to buy a new mattress for ourselves too. Stupidly instead of buying from Eve, we bought from a competitor whose name is very similar (:)) because they had a sale. Now I find myself in my daughter's bed each night since the new mattress delivered because Eve's is SO much better! I sleep like a baby! Definitely recommend! In fact I will buy a Eve mattress again as soon as we can return the other one.

The Eve Original has been a success! We bought it for our 15 year old who has slept great on it. No complaints. In fact on asking him for his view for this review he said that he hadn't thought about the mattress, is that because it is comfortable? Yes! He wanted to give it 4.3/5 hence the rating, no negatives to add. I researched and researched and was worried because a mattress is such a personal thing, he is very sensitive to touch and heat but no niggles about either. So far, so good.

Comfortable mattress but too warm! So dreading the Summer months. Sadly can't return it under the trial and since then now have upped the trial to a year. Was thinking of returning and buying the premium but due to having Covid went past the date Very disappointed as bought after reading Which report which said average warmth. Some nights can't sleep and I like and need my sleep.. Think twice before purchasing and don't make the same mistake as I have as has been an expensive one at that!

Ive always loved eve products, especially their bed covers and so it was a no brainier to buy one of their mattresses. The mattress is extremely comfortable and provides good support and a great nights sleep. I particularly like the fact that you can unzip the top layer so that it can be washed separately, as this will help prolong the life of the mattress as well. Great product, good design and fast delivery - they even took our old mattress away (for an extra charge).

Very disappointed in the new one. I do wish I'd kept my old one. That one was firmer and 8yrs old. My son still has his and that is 8yr old and firmer. Reason for low score.

This is the first mattress I've bought personally but is the third like it in the house. Having slept very comfortably and soundly on the previous one for several years it was easy to decide to buy another when we opted to upside to a superking following the arrival of "he's not sleeping on the bed" cocker Spaniel. Mattress arrived so very quickly that we've had to revert to being teenagers again for a while . Now room for all 3 of us.

We bought this mattress on the strength of the Which review. We didnt need 3 months to be sure, by the second night we were convinced and very happy. The only snag and it is a nuisance is that Eve dont collect your old mattress and thats really difficult during lockdown and Covid restrictions. We still have our old one waiting for the council to collect in Jan many weeks later. The important bit though the mattress is excellent.

We decided to purchase this mattress following a stay in a holiday cottage which had an eve mattress on the bed. It was so comfortable we knew it was time to change our mattress at home. We bought it when it was on offer and we're really pleased with it. Although we like quite a firm mattress, this did feel very firm to start with. It has now softened slightly and is supportive but comfortable. The best mattress we've bought.

I bought my first eve 6 years ago and loved it. When upgrading from a double to a King recently I decided to buy another one as I was so pleased with the original. However, despite double checking with Eve that the mattress was made in the same way this one is so much more firm than I was expecting or am used to and I've had to invest in a mattress topper from a different company as a result. Just not what I was hoping for.

It took me a couple of nights to get used to mattress but love it now. I was surprised to start with how firm it was but so comfortable and no aching back or joints. I chose this mattress as it stated in comparison with other memory foam mattresss that it was firmer. So pleased I did Delivery was excellent & easy to unroll. Just annoyed that the mattress went on sale a few days later. But pleased that I sleep well now

This is the second Eve mattress I have. Having slept in our guest bed for a couple of nights. I realised how dreadfully uncomfortable the bed was so .... new mattress. Absolutely great. These mattresses are just so comfy. Love them. Delivery was excellent by two very friendly guys who took the mattress upstairs for me and took the box away. Great service! Takes no time for the mattress to 'inflate'.

Without doubt the best mattress I've EVER slept on. It's utterly sublime. Perfection. My wife absolutely loves it too. We spend approximately a third of our lives in bed so give yourself what you deserve and invest in an amazing mattress. Even the unboxing was a pleasure, the "Woa it was dark in there" writing on the first piece of paper to greet us was a nice touch. Quality all around.

Our purchase was driven by the Which reviews we researched before purchase. Make sure you don't buy full price, discount offers come along pretty often. I was disappointed that they left the quite heavy mattress on the doorstep; even worse, that they collected the old one (from upstairs!) two days before the delivery of the new one. But that's a logistics problem, not a product quality one.

Mattress is very comfy indeed. For us as usual cold foam sleepers we were used to a very high standard cold foam. This mattress let you sink in a bit but is then quite firm as well. The only negative point we found is that you seem to sweat a bit more on it. I am not sure what the remedy is for that because foam protectors usually add even more plastic to the mattress. What to do?

Ordered this mattress having slept on one at an Airbnb. Had found it so comfy that I checked the label to see what it was and ordered one. However our new one obviously needs a bit more wearing in as it's very firm but is only a month old. Loss of stars is because of the horrible smell which still hasn't gone in spite of leaving it to air for three days and many times in between.

We bought this product to replace an aging memory foam mattress that was starting to feel rather uncomfortable. The mattress is of good quality and overall fairly priced, certainly much more value for money than the competition. Concerning comfort, I was expecting more. Having tried a few memory foam mattresses, for comfort this product is just above average.

This mattress has been great, its nice and firm but without being rock solid, it's supportive and it's not trapped loads of heat which is ideal. We'd had our old mattress for 9 years and were worried about updating as you're never sure how you will get on with it until you've slept on it for a few weeks but this has made us wish we'd switched sooner.

Medium firm mattress which suits my back requirements. Well constructed and not as heavy to handle as some other memory foam mattresses, although I find the 'handles' on the underside awkward (too far apart and hard to find sometimes, handle spacing doesn't seem to be designed with female proportions in mind?). Overall pleased with my purchase.

The mattress is so comfortable but I have a few minor niggles with the design - personally I think the handles for turning it over should be on the side and not underneath or atleast slightly nearer the edge of the mattress and also it's a pity it can't be turned over as well as around. Can't complain about the comfort though. It's amazing

Too hard. For a memory foam mattress you definitely expect some adaptable and soft mattress, that's not the case. After investing a lot of money in a memory foam mattress you have to invest more money in a good memory foam topper. I couldn't sleep until I use the topper because the mattress was killing my back. Quite disappointed.

The perfect mattress for a perfect sleep. Sleep like a baby and have your eight hours sleep without interruption. The mattress doesn't make you hot or sweaty.

This is the second Eve mattress I've had for my kingsize bed. It's comfortable and has just the right degree of softness for my ageing bones. I have an Eve mattress on one of the guest beds as well, and have given an Eve mattress to my daughter and her partner.

King size bed which I've had for four years. Comfortable enough if you like a firm bed. However.... I do tend to wake up sometimes during the night drenched in sweat as the mattrass is on the hot side. Reasonable value for money but I wouldn't buy a other one.

This is our second Eve mattress in our home. This is for my teenage daughter and she loves it. I worried she may struggle to get on with it as much firmer than what she had but she informs me she is sleeping really well and feels far more supported by it.

Due to a long period of running on roads my hips and knees give me a wee bit of trouble. This meant that my previous mattress become uncomfortable. Thank goodness that the mattress from Eve has dealt with that problem and my sleeping has been much better.

Started with an Emma mattress which was absolutely horrific. Before I had even gone to sleep for the first time on it I opened a return and bought an eve instead but was hesitant that the eve may be the same but I am so pleased with it, so comfortable!!!

Got this on Black Friday sale with a pillow. My husband loves the pillow. We both love the mattress and doesn't cause movement when one of us is getting up to feed the baby. Comfortable sleep. Just keeps shifting a bit on the bed so maybe a bit light?

Mattress has been great. We read Which reviews and chose this because it was meant to be comfortable and not too warm. Although it hasn't been the hottest summer, the mattress has been very comfortable and I don't think it gets warmer than average.

This is the best mattress I have ever had. After two nights of blissful sleep, my "chronic" backache vanished and my nights' sleeps have continued to refresh and have become something to look forward to instead of dread. My insomnia has been cured.

It's great so far. I've taken to it really well, but my wife has had to add a softer memory foam topper this week, so, not perfect for both of us. I'm terms of quality, I suppose time will tell. VFM. About right I guess Comfort. As discussed..

Fantastic mattress really thrilled with the quality. However after purchase we found it retailed for a lot cheaper at dunelm at their regular price which was a shame, so I would be sure to shop around as direct is not the cheapest way to buy

Comfortable and cooler than previous memory foam mattress. We didn't find that there was a chemical smell but left it for 24 hours anyway. It is quite heavy (king size) and needs 2 to turn it . Over all we are happy with our purchase.

This is such a lovely mattress, my second one I've brought. The reason was we got a larger bed. I can't feel my partner moving in the night or even when he gets up to go toilet. So my sleep isn't broken.
