What is an Emma pillow?
The Emma brand is relatively young (founded in 2015) and has established itself on the market in a very short time with a high-quality mattress.
Since the Emma One mattress * was rated “very good” in the mattress test by Stiftung Warentest in 2019, the Emma brand has become even more popular.
As a follow-up product after the mattress, the Emma pillow * was presented, which, together with the mattress, should significantly improve sleeping comfort.
The Emma brand relies on national materials and production in Germany. In addition, experts help to develop innovative solutions for better sleep.
The all-round pillow Emma, which should be suitable for all sleeping positions , has three layers and is therefore both height-adjustable and individually changeable.
How is the pillow constructed?
The Emma pillow consists of three different layers, which allow different uses as well as adjustment of the pillow height.
These are the three layers of the pillow:
- Adaptive visco foam : This high-quality memory foam layer offers good support for the head and neck area. The texture is more solid.
- Airgocell foam . A particularly soft and breathable layer made of cold foam.
- Soft visco foam . This layer consists of softer viscose foam that still supports the head.
The three layers are surrounded by a washable cover with ultra-dry technology for a cool sleeping environment.
Depending on the position in which you sleep, you can remove individual layers from the pillow or change the layer on which you are lying.
So you can try out which layer distribution you feel most comfortable with and which layer you sleep best on.
Who is the Emma pillow suitable for?
According to the manufacturer, the Emma pillow is suitable for all sleeping positions.
At the same time, there are recommendations on how you should use the pillow in the different sleeping positions.
Side sleeper
Side sleepers are advised to use all three layers of the pillow to provide the best possible head support.
You can then choose the softer or the harder visco foam layer as the surface.
Tip: You can find more side sleeper pillows in the side sleeper pillow test .
Back sleeper
Since people who sleep on their back need a lower pillow, it is recommended that only two of the three layers of the Emma pillow be used in this sleeping position.
Depending on how soft or hard you like to bed your head, you can choose the perfect layer combination. With a little trial and error, you can easily find the best option.
Stomach sleeper
If you sleep on your stomach, you should use the thinnest possible pillow. With the Emma pillow you can choose one of the three existing layers and, of course, change them as you like.
Try all three layers at your leisure to find the one that offers you the best sleeping comfort.

My personal test
To check how good an Emma pillow actually is, I tried it out myself for two weeks.
Since I always sleep on my side, I used the pillow with all three layers and only turned it every now and then to sleep softer or harder.
Overall, I really liked the pillow, especially the airy, cool sleep feeling. Personally, I find the possibility of trying out different degrees of hardness in foam very interesting.
Often times you buy a single pillow and stick with it for years without ever trying anything else.
The only downside I see is that once you’ve found your “favorite page” and combination, there are a few layers that are redundant.
When buying my next pillow, I will now fall back on my experiences with the Emma pillow and get myself a complete pillow made of medium-hard memory foam .
I definitely slept well on the Emma pillow, the quality is highly recommended.
How much do Emma pillows cost?
The Emma Original pillow costs between 50 and 60 euros in stores.
Since there is only one version of the original Emma pillow in the size 40 × 70 cm, the purchase price of the respective retailer is decisive.
The Emma Cloud pillow, which consists of only two layers, is new on the market. However, the retail price is almost identical to the price of the original Emma pillow.
Where can I buy Emma pillows?
You can find Emma pillows in specialist shops, directly from the manufacturer and also from internet dealers.
Always compare the prices to see whether there are additional delivery costs in order to actually find the best offer.
You can currently find this offer on Amazon:
maintenance
Customers often ask if they can wash the Emma pillow. The answer is no.
Only the cover can be removed and washed at up to 60 degrees.
Important: You must not wash the three foam layers.
Alternatives
The market for pillows is large and diverse, which is why there are many alternatives to the Emma pillow.
