Firmness Info

Not too firm, not too soft… this medium firmness mattress is perfect for all sleeping positions. Rated a 5/10 on the firmness scale. If you prefer a firmer feel, see the Emma Premium.

The Simba Hybrid Pro is medium-firm in feel, however, because of the dual spring layers and wool layer the Pro provides a slightly softer, plusher, more luxurious feel than the Hybrid. 95% of Simba sleepers love their mattress. If it doesn't work for you, Simba mattresses that are returned are either refurbished or recycled; they never go near a landfill site.
