Recommended For
The Napp mattress has a medium firmness best suited for side sleepers and couples who find it challenging to agree on a mattress's firmness.
The Emma Comfort mattress is a medium-firm foam mattress that’s ideal for kiwis looking for great quality and comfort at a reasonable price point. It’s also great for couples and people who like the pressure relief of foam mattresses but still want to sleep cool.
What we like
The mattress is medium-firm and balances the need for a sturdy, firm, yet breathable mattress. The cover is also removable and comes from a material that excellently controls temperature. o
The Emma Comfort mattress is a great option for anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable sleep surface. As someone who has personally tested this mattress, I can attest to its ability to provide a supportive and restful night's sleep. It was during a period of exhaustive painting and it was great to have such a comfortable sleep to allow my body to recover. My wife had a small period of adjusting to the mattress and initially didn't like the feel but this changed after the first week. One of the standout features of the Emma Comfort is its combination of memory foam and polyfoam layers, which work together to provide a comfortable yet supportive sleeping surface. The foam layers also help to distribute weight evenly, reducing pressure points and allowing for a more comfortable sleep experience. The Emma Comfort also features a removable, washable cover made of a breathable and durable material that helps to regulate temperature and keep you cool throughout the night. The cover is easy to clean and maintain, making it a practical choice for those looking for a low-maintenance mattress. While the Emma Comfort is an excellent mattress in its own right, it is worth noting that the Emma Diamond Hybrid offers even more advanced features and comfort. The Diamond Hybrid mattress features a combination of memory foam and pocket springs, which provide better support and pressure relief than the Emma Comfort's polyfoam layers. Overall, the Emma Comfort mattress is a great option for those on a budget who are looking for a comfortable and supportive sleep surface. However, if you have the budget to invest in a higher-end mattress, the Emma Diamond Hybrid is a better option, providing even more advanced features and comfort for a truly restful night's sleep.
Keep in Mind
When you unpack the Napp mattress for the first time, it emits some off-gas smells that result from the manufacturing process, much like any other all-foam mattress. People who are allergic to off-gas compounds may struggle with this for one or two nights. Its edges also lack reinforcement, so weightier customers might choose to sleep in the centre instead of the edges of the mattress.
The Diamond Hybrid mattress has advanced zoning technology that helps to distribute weight more evenly, further reducing pressure points and ensuring a more comfortable sleep experience. While the Diamond Hybrid mattress comes at a higher price point, the added features and benefits make it a better investment if your budget allows.

Comfort Specs
A Hygroflex comfort layer, exclusive to Napp, has superior temperature control than regular memory foam. A mid layer of Gel Infused Memory Foam moulds to your curves. It's pressure-relieving properties help to increase blood circulation, which reduces tossing and turning that can disrupt your sleep.

University research has shown Hygroflex foam to offer superior pressure point relief than other memory foams. It also allows you move freely and not have that 'stuck in' feeling you may have had with other foams. The high density foam support core provides comfortable support and durability, while minimising partner disturbance and roll together.
The Ultra-Comfy Airgocell® Foam layer is point-elastic which allows one area of your mattress to compress without impacting the rest. This means you won't feel a thing if you share a bed with someone who moves while they sleep. The supportive HRX foam layer is made with special zoning technology for proper hip, shoulder, and spinal alignment. This innovative foam helps your mattress contour perfectly to your individual body shape.
