I am a happy owner of four Una mattresses

I am a happy owner of four Una mattresses in total: one UK king size mattress, one EU king size mattress and two baby mattresses.Overall I am very happy with my purchases, which is evident in the quantity of products that I have bought. All mattresses are comfortable to sleep on. I no longer have back pains after waking up, and my parents, to whom I bought a second mattress, told me the same thing. The mattresses are composed of different layers which can be shuffled in several different ways producing soft, medium or hard feel. Although the medium feel is the default one described in the manual, I would strongly recommend everyone to try the hard one. If it was almost any other mattress, only a single configuration would be available and it would end up in a landfill if it was not comfortable enough.A newer version of the EU king size mattress contains layers which are separate for both sides of the bed in the configuration of 3 layers times 2 people plus one very thin layer for both on top. This allows to configure the mattress to have different firmness levels on both sides, which is extremely convenient. This also makes the mattress significantly easier to transport when movind houses.One of my baby mattresses is of a non-standard size for a "Boori" bed (132 x 70cm). Una was kind enough to produce me a custom size baby mattress.Another important advantages is that the mattress is made from Organic latex. This is why I bought the mattress for my baby. Upon unpacking it little to none smell as opposed to the smell of an oil refinery that many foam mattresses have (and even some other baby mattresses). Organic latex is a very nice compromice: to the best of my knowledge, unlike a foam mattresses, it does not 'gas off' volatile organic compounds (or at least produces orders of magnitude less of them), but unlike organic mattresses produced from wool, it does not provide an environment for dust mites to live.Latex mattresses is an old and time tested technology. It is not uncommon for an old latex furniture to last for many decades; for example, my grandparents still have a latex filled sofa lasting for around half a century. Try doing this with a foam filled mattress! Although latex mattresses are more expensive, they are likely to last significantly longer, providing both health, economical and environmental benefits. Once a 'modern' foam filled mattress starts aging, it will start crumbling producing extremely unpleasent pile of yellow dust below the bed, full of fire-retardant chemicals. I've never heard of this happening to a latex mattress.
