Find out who came out on top in our side-by-side mattress comparison of the internationally-awarded Emma Original mattress and the Sirius MyBed mattress.
With multiple international awards from independent testing agencies combined with its relatively lower prices, the Emma mattress has become synonymous with value for money the world over. But how does it compare with its New Zealand counterparts?
The online presence of Furniture Components (aka Furnco) Limited, MyBed remains a good option for those in the market for a mattress with a pocket spring system they can have delivered straight to their door, but let’s dig a little deeper to see how well their other features fare in comparison!
The Emma and MyBed Sirius mattress both offer comfort and great support in the form of a multi-zonal firmness build that assures that the necessary counter-pressure is provided in the appropriate areas. However this is taken a notch higher in the Emma mattress with its 7 zones compared to MyBed’s 5. In terms of breathability, both allow for a good level of heat dissipation and for those more used to the feeling of a spring mattress the MyBed might turn out to be the cooler option.
Another thing to note is that the Emma Original was designed and manufactured in Germany especially for the brand while the MyBed range of mattresses were sourced from third-party mattress manufacturers in China, which might indicate that with the latter you might not be getting anything you can’t already find somewhere else. Having said that if you are looking for a more traditional type mattress with a Eurotop cover don’t hesitate to try it out.
Although if you have any intention of purchasing more than one mattress in the same household than Emma is the better choice as the 100 night trial applies for all purchases made, not just the first one. So people of differing preferences within the same household can take advantage of the 100 night trial as well which is great!
In terms of the benefits that each one has to offer, the value provided by the Emma cannot be argued with (especially during a sale). If having a pocket spring mattress is not of major importance to you, then the Emma is the clear choice to get the best value considering the price difference. With the 100 night trial, there’s little reason not to give the Emma Original a shot before opting for an alternative.
