Is the Saatva Classic Mattress for You?

Who’s Going to Love the Saatva Mattress

• All body types and sleeping positions
• Hot sleepers
• People who toss and turn  
• Luxury mattress shoppers
• People with back pain

Who Should Steer Clear of the Saatva Mattress

• Memory foam mattress aficionados—instead, the Loom & Leaf mattress is a luxury memory foam mattress by Saatva.
• Couples easily disturbed by movement—instead, the Leesa Sapira mattress is a similar bed with better motion isolation.
• Shoppers on a tight budget—instead, the Helix Midnight mattress is a mattress with a similar construction and feel at a lower price point.

Saatva Classic Video Review

The two layers of lumbar support make the Saatva Classic a great mattress for people with back pain. With three firmness options, it can accommodate almost every sleeping position and body type, too. For more info, check out a full video review from the Mattress Nerds right here!

Saatva Classic Mattress Firmness and Feel

Saatva Mattress Firmness

The Saatva Classic comes in three firmness levels: Plush Soft, Luxury Firm, and Firm. Here is how firm each model is on a 1–10 firmness scale, with 1 being sumptuously soft and 10 plank-hard. 

• Plush Soft: 3/10
• Luxury Firm: 6–6.5/10
• Firm: 8/10  

What Does the Saatva Mattress Feel Like?

If you’re a side sleeper who needs to feel extra cushion around your joints, the Plush Soft version of the Saatva Classic might work best for you. However, the Plush Soft model isn’t the softest mattress compared to other brands on the market. You should still feel ample support around your hips and shoulders. If you are looking to sink into the layers of your mattress, see the best soft mattresses.

The Luxury Firm version of the Saatva Classic is the “middle of the road” level of firmness, and it’s also the most popular version. If you like a firm mattress but still want to be cradled in the comfort layers, this is your bed. Stomach and back sleepers do well on this medium-firm mattress.

The firm model of the Saatva Classic is a very firm mattress that’s best for back or stomach sleepers. It’s also the one to consider if your doctor recommends a firm mattress for lumbar support, lower back pain, neck pain, or other spinal alignment issues.

What Sleeping Position Is the Saatva Classic Best For?

Body Type:	BACK SLEEPERS	STOMACH SLEEPERS	SIDE SLEEPERS
Lightweight (< 130 lbs):	5	5	3
Average weight (130–230 lbs):	5	5	4
Heavyweight (> 230 lbs):	4	3	4

1 = Very poor, 2 = Not good, 3 = Fair, 4 = Good, 5 = Excellent

Back Sleepers

The Saatva is an excellent mattress for back sleepers thanks to the balance of reinforced lumbar support, a lightly conforming pillow top, and a supportive double coil system. The lumbar support keeps the body’s heavier core from sinking in too far, while the top foam layer paired with durable support coils keeps the spine’s natural “S” curve. 

We recommend the Luxury Firm and Firm versions of the Saatva Classic for lightweight and average-weight back sleepers. Heavyweight back sleepers should choose the Firm model, as it offers a bit more support. 

Side Sleepers

Side sleepers need a bed that offers generous contouring—cradling around pressure points—to avoid pain in the shoulders or the hips. When we put the Saatva Classic to the Mattress Nerd lab test, there were some areas of high pressure at the hips and shoulders. However, it’s important to note that we tested the Luxury Firm model. The softer model is likely to provide better pressure relief. 

We recommend the Plush Soft version for lightweight and average-weight side sleepers. However, some side sleepers who weigh less than 130 lbs may be better served by a mattress with more generous foam layers, like a soft memory foam mattress. 

Heavyweight side sleepers need a firmer surface to keep their bodies supported, and the Luxury Firm does a good job balancing cushion with support for larger bodies. For more options that offer great pressure relief, see the best mattress for side sleepers.

Stomach Sleepers

When you sleep on your stomach, the biggest challenge is finding a mattress that keeps your hips from dipping in too far, knocking the spine out of alignment. The Saatva Classic’s two-layer coil support system and reinforced lumbar support does an amazing job supporting healthy body alignment when stomach sleeping. 

The right firmness level for stomach sleepers is likely to be either the Luxury Firm or Firm model. The Luxury Firm adds a touch of softness that lightweight people need for comfort, while the Firm provides the durability and support required by heavyweight people. However, some plus-size sleepers may find the fairly soft top foam layers insufficiently supportive. Average-weight people are well supported on either the Luxury Firm or Firm option.

For other mattresses that support the entire body, see the best mattress for stomach sleepers.

Combination Sleepers

If you change positions throughout the night, the Saatva Classic could work well for you. Thanks to two layers of innerspring coils, the Saatva has a responsive, bouncy feel that makes it easy to switch positions. 

The right Saatva mattress for combination sleepers depends on your body type, firmness preference, and dominant sleeping positions. Most heavyweight or plus-size people do best on the Firm version, though the Luxury Firm is better for heavier folks who primarily sleep on their sides.

The Plush Soft is best for lightweight and average-weight people who spend most of their time side sleeping. Go with the Firm if you prefer a firmer feel and the Luxury Firm if you prefer a balanced feel.  

Saatva Classic Mattress Performance

Is The Saatva Mattress Cooling?

Sleep experts advise you to keep your bedroom fairly cool as a way to support your body’s nighttime temperature cycle. The trouble is, even with the appropriate ambient temperature, mattresses with foam layers can trap body heat and have you waking up in the middle of the night hot and sweaty. This is why it’s important to have a breathable mattress that allows airflow, especially if you sleep hot.

The Saatva Classic is one of the best cooling mattresses for hot sleepers. Unlike all-foam beds, Saatva’s dual coil layers facilitate generous airflow. The end result is impressive temperature neutrality.   

Edge Support 

We love the Saatva because it has some of the most supportive and comfortable edges that we’ve experienced here at Mattress Nerd. That edge support means you and your partner can spread out without feeling like you’re about the roll off of the surface. 

The Saatva’s edges are reinforced with high-density foam, so you will feel comfortable no matter where you lie on the mattress. These edges are sturdy enough to sit on when reading a book or tying your shoes. If you are looking to maximize the sleepable space on your mattress, see the best Queen size mattresses.

Responsiveness

The foam pillow top quickly adapts to changes in your sleeping position, so we consider the Saatva to be a responsive bed. Also, with two coil layers and minimal foam, you won’t sink too far into the Saatva mattress, which makes it easier to change positions. 

Motion Isolation: Is it good for those who share a bed?

Motion isolation is one of the most important factors influencing how deeply you and your partner sleep. If either of you is a light sleeper (or someone who shimmies and shakes all night long), you need a mattress that minimizes motion transfer. The Saatva Classic does a decent job at absorbing motion, but with two coil layers, it’s not the best hybrid mattress for light sleepers. 

If you’re looking for more options, check out our best mattresses for couples.

Noise

The Saatva Classic is a quiet mattress thanks to the noise-dampening pillow top and individually wrapped coils in the middle of the mattress. The support coils aren’t wrapped, but there’s enough space between each coil to prevent noise-causing friction.

Pain Relief

The Saatva Classic is one of the best mattresses for back pain. When you struggle with back or neck pain, it’s essential to find a bed that supports healthy spinal alignment. For side sleepers and lightweight folks, this means a mattress that’s soft enough to cushion pressure points and feel cozy. For heavier people, a mattress must have added support along the body’s trunk to minimize sagging. 

The Saatva Classic’s three firmness options and two layers of extra support along the body’s trunk make it one of the best beds at supporting proper alignment for all body sizes and sleeping positions. However, if you’re prone to hip or shoulder pain, you’ll likely need more pressure relief; instead, check out the best mattresses for arthritis.

Sex

The springy coil layers, breathable construction, and responsive foam topper make the Saatva Classic an excellent mattress for sex.

Off-Gassing

We hardly noticed any “new mattress smell” (aka off-gassing) when we received our Saatva Classic mattress. Any odors while you unwrap it from the plastic are not harmful and should be gone after your mattress has some time to air out.

Durability

The Saatva Classic is among the most durable innerspring mattresses on the market. With two layers of strong steel coils, the Classic is likely to last well over 10 years. Also, added lumbar support from a dense layer of memory foam gives the Saatva the resiliency needed by heavyweight people.

Saatva Mattress Construction: What’s it made of?

The Saatva is a luxury mattress made from two coil layers, memory foam, polyurethane foam, and an organic cotton cover. It boasts reinforced edges and added lumbar support, which is great for seniors and people with back pain. With two thickness options and three firmness levels, the Saatva is one of few beds that supports all sleeping positions and body types. If you like the construction of the Saatva, check out the best pillow top mattresses.

Layer #1—Euro Top with Organic Cotton Cover (3”): The Saatva’s organic cotton cover is quilted with a thick layer of pressure-relieving foam. The firmness of the foam accounts for the difference in feel among the three models. Also, the Euro pillow top is coated with Guardin®, a plant-based antimicrobial substance designed to block bacterial growth.

Layer #2—Memory Foam Lumbar Support: A layer of durable, slow-response memory foam brings added contouring and support to the region beneath your hips and spine. 

Layer #3—Pocketed Coil Transition Layer: Individually encased coils deliver targeted support and pressure relief, providing contouring without the heat retention that comes from all-foam mattresses. These pocketed coils move independently from one another, minimizing motion transfer. The Queen size mattress incorporates 884 coils in this layer. 

Layer #4—Active Wire Lumbar Support: This is another layer designed to reinforce the middle of the mattress, where the body’s heavy core is situated. The extra support especially helps stomach sleepers and heavy people to maintain healthy spine alignment. 

Layer #5—Durable Support Coils: Ultra-durable steel coils create one of the longest-lasting pillow top mattresses on the market. These coils add a bouncy, responsive feel and support a dry and cool sleeping experience. The 11.5” tall Saatva has a 4” support coil layer, while the 14.5” tall version includes a 7” support layer. We recommend heavier people opt for the thicker Saatva mattress for greater longevity. 

Layer #6—Reinforced Edge Support: High-density polyfoam lines the entire Saatva perimeter. As a result, the edges are stable, sturdy, and comfortable: great for those who like to sit on the edge of their mattress.

Twin	$1395.00	38” x 75”	14.5” or 11.5″	90–100 lbs

How Do the Policies Measure Up?

Shipping & Unboxing

Though Saatva operates a showroom out of New York City, the company is primarily an online mattress brand. We don’t classify Saatva as a bed-in-a-box mattress company because the brand doesn’t compress its beds and ship them in boxes. Instead, Saatva offers a free white glove delivery service. 

With white glove delivery, a team of delivery professionals will install your new mattress and remove an old mattress for free. Since there’s no unboxing or decompression, the off-gassing chemical smells are minimal, so you can typically sleep on your new bed the same day it arrives.

Warranty

The Saatva Classic mattress comes with a Lifetime warranty. If the mattress is deemed defective or shows excessive sagging in the first two years, Saatva will replace it for free. 

How Long Does Saatva’s Warranty Period Last?

For all Saatva mattresses, with the exception of the Saatva Solaire, Saatva will replace your mattress with a brand new one if it is deemed defective during the first two years following the delivery date. From year three until the end of the warranty, Saatva will completely repair and re-cover your mattress for only a transportation fee of $99 each way. The new mattress is delivered at the same time your original is picked up.

For the Solaire, Saatva will professionally repair a defective airbed at no cost to you during the first five years following the delivery date. After year five, labor costs are covered, but you’ll be required to pay shipping and between 50–90 percent of the cost of parts.

Fairness Replacement Option

All Saatva warranties come with a Fairness Replacement Option, which is designed to eliminate conflict and hassle between Saatva and its customers. The Fairness Replacement Option says that if your bed is deemed defective after a certain period of time, you get to keep your original mattress and Saatva will deliver and install a brand new mattress for:

• 40 percent of the original price in years three to five
• 60 percent of the original price in years six to 10
• 80 percent of the original price in years 11 to 15

A delivery transportation cost of $99 applies to the new mattress under the Fairness Replacement Option. Saatva suggests keeping the original mattress for a guest bedroom, family member, friend, or local charity.

What Is Covered By the Saatva Warranty?

The coverage for each of the Saatva mattress warranties is essentially the same. For a more general overview of what mattress warranties typically cover, check out What’s a mattress warranty and what does it cover?

• Defects in Workmanship
• Defects in Materials
• Body Impressions Greater than 1” Deep

What the Saatva Warranty Does Not Cover

• Normal Wear and Tear
• Indentations Not At Least 1” Deep
• Unexpected Softness or Unwanted Pressure
• Comfort Preferences
• Physical Abuse including Burns, Stains, or Broken Coils
• Mattress Size
• Off-Gassing

What Could Void My Warranty?

• Using a 14.5” tall Saatva mattress on an adjustable base
• Using a support system that can’t support the weight of the mattress and any sleepers
• For a Queen size, King size, or California King size: using a metal frame without vertical support, a bed frame without five or six legs, or a platform bed with slats more than 4” apart
• For a Twin size, Twin XL size, or Full size: using a metal frame without at least four legs 
• Evidence that the bedding has been burned or otherwise abused or damaged (ex: damaging the coil layers by jumping on the bed)
• Selling the bed to a second-hand owner or mattress store

How Does the Saatva Warranty Measure Up?

Saatva outpaces the average warranty coverage period in the mattress industry—typically 10 years—by a lot. In our opinion, long warranty periods show that a mattress company is confident in the quality and durability of its products. 

While the Saatva warranties are all longer than average, most people only keep their mattresses for up to a decade. In our opinion, therefore, it’s more important to consider the terms of the warranty than its length.

Saatva claims its warranties are the “friendliest, clearest, and strongest” in the industry, and we mostly agree. Saatva earns points for charging its customers nothing for replacements during the first few years. It’s also a plus that the only charge to customers is a transportation fee of $198 ($99 each way) if the mattress is repaired and re-covered during the later years of the warranty.

We do wish that Saatva was clearer about which specific defects are covered under warranty. Instead, they opt to determine coverage on a case-by-case basis.

Filing A Warranty Claim with Saatva

To file a warranty claim with Saatva, you must notify The Saatva Company. Saatva makes filing a claim simple with the following options.

• Call Saatva’s Customer Care Service—Call 1-877-672-2882 to contact Saatva’s customer service team, which is available 24/7.
• Go Online—Email the customer service team at info@saatvamattress.com to let them know you’d like to file a warranty claim.

Trial Period & Returns

After the mattress is delivered, Saatva offers a 365-night sleep trial period. If you don’t like the bed, you can return it for a full refund of the mattress price minus a $99 transportation fee. While most online mattress brands do not charge return fees, we believe Saatva’s fee is still competitive because they offer free mattress delivery and setup—a $199+ value.

How Do I Return a Saatva Mattress? 

To return a Saatva mattress:

1. Contact Saatva—You can initiate a mattress return by contacting Saatva at (877) 672-2882. The customer care team will need your original order number and a reason for the return.
2. Schedule Mattress Pickup—Saatva’s delivery team will email you within one week of contacting customer service to schedule a pickup day and time. Available pickup times vary by region.
3. Be Present at Pickup—You’ll need to be home for the mattress pickup, but don’t worry about repackaging the mattress: The Saatva team will take care of mattress removal.
4. Wait for Your Refund—Once the mattress has been returned to the warehouse, Saatva will process your return. You should see funds released to your bank account within 10–12 days. Keep in mind that the $99 return transportation fee will be deducted from the overall refund.

Addressing Saatva Classic Mattress Complaints

• Not Enough Pressure Relief: The Saatva Classic didn’t perform exceptionally well in our pressure relief test. Strict side sleepers with pain in their hips or shoulders may prefer a mattress that provides more cushioning along the top of the mattress. 
• Motion Transfer: Coils transfer motion to a greater extent than foam. As the Saatva contains two coil layers, it doesn’t isolate motion to the extent that some couples prefer. 
• Pricing: While our team believes that the Saatva Classic mattress is fairly priced, it still might be out of range for some budget shoppers. For some cheaper options, check out our list of the best affordable mattresses.

The Saatva Latex Hybrid is an all-natural mattress with a medium-firm feel. Its firmness falls between that of the Classic’s Luxury Firm and Firm models. Because the Classic comes in a softer feel, it’s better for side sleepers and lightweight people. 

Both mattresses have zoned support that’s excellent for heavy people, stomach sleepers, and those with back pain. The Latex Hybrid sleeps even cooler than the Classic. While it has a touch of softness, the Latex Hybrid offers a floating-on-the-mattress feel, while the Classic’s pillow top adds more cushioning.

The softest option is the Saatva Classic, while both mattresses come in a medium-firm and firm option. The softer feel of the Saatva Classic is better for side sleepers and lightweight folks. 

The Loom & Leaf’s all-foam construction does a better job absorbing motion, which is great for couples who tend to either move around often in their sleep or awaken easily to disturbances. The Classic’s dual coil layers create a more durable and supportive mattress, so heavier people are likely to prefer it to the Loom & Leaf.

The Zenhaven is a natural latex mattress with two firmness levels, while the Saatva is a pillow top innerspring mattress with three firmness levels. The Zenhaven is ideal for back and stomach sleepers who prefer a firmer feel. It’s also a good choice for combination sleepers who want the buoyancy of latex. The Saatva Classic is better for side sleepers since it’s offered in Plush Soft. 

The Zenhaven has an all-natural construction that includes ergonomically zoned layers of latex, as well as organic cotton and wool from New Zealand. The Saatva Classic also has a high-quality, relatively natural construction, but it’s made with foam and coils instead of latex. We consider the Zenhaven to be the more durable mattress, but it’s priced a lot higher than the Classic

The Helix Midnight Luxe has a medium-firmness that falls between the Classic’s soft and medium-firm options. Because the Saatva comes in firmer models, it’s better for heavier people and those who like a firm feel.

The softest Saatva is softer than the softest WinkBed, while both mattresses come in a similar medium-firm and firm feel. These variable firmnesses make both beds excellent for diverse body types and sleep positions. 

What sets these beds apart is how they feel. The Saatva is a bit cooler and more responsive—better for combination sleepers and those who sleep hot. The WinkBed offers greater cushioning along the surface, making it good for side sleepers. Also, the WinkBed has sturdier edges, while the Saatva offers superior motion isolation.

The Casper Hybrid is a medium-firm mattress made from polyfoam, zoned memory foam, and pocketed coils. Compared to the Saatva Classic’s dual-coil system, the Casper is not as supportive nor does it sleep as cool. For these reasons, Saatva is likely a better fit for bigger bodies and hot sleepers. 

The Casper’s foams hug the body closer than the Saatva Classic, cushioning the hips and shoulders of side sleepers more generously. The Casper’s design also minimizes motion transfer better than the Saatva, so we recommend it over the Saatva for couples who sleep lightly and awaken easily. However, the Saatva has a springier feel that better supports movement, which is great for combination sleepers.

Saatva Classic Mattress FAQs

Are Saatva mattresses worth the price?

In short, yes. Just make sure that you are choosing the right mattress model and firmness level for your needs. We love Saatva for their high-quality materials, durable designs, commitment to manufacturing in the U.S., generous trial periods and warranties, and free white glove delivery.

Where are Saatva mattresses made?

Saatva mattresses are made in the U.S., as opposed to China or another country. Saatva chooses to make their beds in the U.S. so they have better oversight into quality control, safety standards, and environmental impact. They’re also able to create more jobs in the U.S. and guarantee easier delivery.

Where can you buy a Saatva mattresses?

Saatva doesn’t sell their mattresses through any third-party sites or stores. Their only physical store is found in Manhattan, New York. This direct-to-consumer model is how the brand can offer luxury mattresses at competitive pricing. You may encounter Saatva mattresses at certain luxury hotels.

The Nerd’s Take: What’s the Bottom Line?

The Saatva Classic is a high-quality luxury mattress for shoppers who prioritize support, durability, and customizability. With three different firmness levels and two thicknesses, the Saatva suits sleepers of every body type and sleeping position. You also get free white glove delivery, a 365-night sleep trial, and a Lifetime warranty.

The Saatva sleeps exceptionally cool, is excellent for people with back pain, and has sturdy edges. Our only words of caution are that the Saatva doesn’t excel at pressure relief and its dual-coil system doesn’t minimize motion transfer to the degree that some light sleepers would prefer.
