Budget buyers
Sitting at the entry-level end of the Emma range, this model is a sensible place to start if keeping spending down is your first concern.
Warm sleepers
The temperature-regulating top cover and breathable hybrid foam top layer are designed to help heat escape, so the surface should feel less stuffy overnight.
Guest rooms
Durable, supportive zoned HRX foam in the second layer suits a bed that sees occasional use, while the entry-level position keeps the outlay modest.
