FAQs

Emma

Is the Emma Sleep mattress a good investment?

The Emma Sleep mattress is an excellent choice, particularly for those who sleep on their backs. Despite being an all-foam mattress, it offers a perfect blend of comfort and support that back sleepers require. It also provides adequate support for stomach sleepers, which is quite an achievement for an all-foam mattress.

What makes the Emma Mattress unique?

The Emma Original is made with Visco Memory foam, which perfectly conforms to your body shape, providing relief to sensitive pressure points and ensuring spinal alignment. The mattress also has a high-resilience extra foam layer at the bottom that offers additional back support as you sleep.

Why does the Emma mattress feel warm?

The warmth you experience with the Emma mattress is due to its construction from synthetic foam, including memory foam. These materials are known for their heat retention properties. Vasco elastic foams like memory foam respond to, retain, and build up heat to function effectively.

Live and Sleep Classic

Does the L&S mattress resist dust mites?

L&S mattresses are made from high-density foam which doesn't provide a conducive environment for dust mites to thrive. However, it's recommended to use a mattress protector to increase defense against dust mites and prolong the life of the mattress.

Where is the L&S mattress made?

L&S mattresses are designed and crafted in the USA, but they are manufactured overseas.

Will my mattress from Live and Sleep fit my current bedroom furniture?

Yes, as long as you purchase the same size bed you currently sleep on. The Live and Sleep mattress will fit in all standard-size bedroom furniture. However, it's important to note that the purchase of a new Live & Sleep Mattress does not include a box spring or foundation.
