Comfort & Feel
Back Support
The Congress of Chiropractic State Associations awarded Saatva a seal of approval for our patented spinal zone technology. The individually-wrapped coils conform to your body, helping ease pressure. The memory foam lumbar crown in the Saatva Classic adds additional relief.
The 50 firmness settings allow you to adjust the mattress’s firmness for maximum back comfort. The mattress’s combination of memory foam and latex layers helps to distribute weight evenly, minimizing pressure points that can exacerbate back pain.
Cooling Features
The cover is made with breathable organic cotton that sleeps cool. The dual-coil design promotes airflow too, helping disperse body heat.
Solaire’s cover is made from naturally breathable organic cotton, which helps wick away moisture and contribute to a cooler sleep surface. A 2″ layer of gel-infused memory foam helps draw heat away from the body. Below this layer is a 1″ natural latex layer known for its breathability and ability to regulate temperature. Solaire’s core consists of air chambers that can be individually adjusted for firmness, while allowing for airflow to prevent heat buildup and promote a cooler sleep environment.
Firmness Options
The Saatva Classic comes in three firmnesses: Plush Soft, Luxury Firm (most popular), and Firm. Plush Soft is ideal for side sleepers and lighter weight sleepers; Luxury Firm is ideal for couples with different preferences and suits all sleep styles; and Firm is ideal stomach sleepers and heavier weight sleepers 250-300 pounds.
