Lifespan
Compared to all other mattresses overall, the longevity of Essentia performs above the average. However, compared to the latex-based mattresses, in particular, it performs no better than tolerable regarding life expectancy.
Firmness & Confirming Ability
The firmness of the Essentia mattress ranges from soft-medium to medium-firm. We all know that a highly conforming mattress is one that contours to the users' body resulting in pain relief and press-point-free sensation. Essentia is such kind of mattress.
Motion Isolation & Edge Support
To an extent, Essentia mattress can prevent one person's movements from disturbing his or her partners. However, it would be difficult to remove such movements entirely. The edge support of the Essentia mattress performs at least above the average, which means people can sleep or sit on the side of the mattress, only causing a little sagging.
Initial Odor & Sleeping Hot
There will be a strong and enduring chemical-like odor that is not especially common in the beginning use of Essentia mattress based on the owners experience data. People who often feel hot when waking up had better choose some other mattresses that don't have the problem of heat retention.
Noise & Break-in Period
Like most latex-based mattresses, Essentia mattress doesn't make any noise, which is very friendly to those who are sensitive to noise. People may need an extended break-in time to get used to Essentia mattress, especially for side sleepers.
Topper Usage & Couple Friendly
Most owners of Essentia choose to add a topper to the mattress to increase comfort and softness. With the limited bounce, Essentia performs negative for couples.
Maintain & Move
It may prevent and minimize the sagging and wear to rotate the mattress occasionally 2-3 times a year. However, Essentia mattress was designed with no flip and one-sided. To maintain the mattress will become a little difficult. To move, handle, and transport the latex-based mattress is a tricky job because of its heavy weight.
