Construction

The Saatva Classic is built on a durable, double-coil base. The center layers of the mattress include individually-wrapped coils and gel-infused memory foam framed with strong foam rails for edge support. A cushioned, hypoallergenic pillow top finishes off the mattress.

Just below the stretch-knit cover is the comfort layer of memory foam. The mattress is supported by Stearns & Foster®’s IntelliCoil® innersprings. The high-density innerspring border provides durable support to prevent the edge of the mattress from sagging over time.

Materials

In the Saatva Classic, you’ll find steel Lumbar Zone® individually-wrapped coils and Lumbar Zone® Active Spinal Wire to relieve pressure and help with spinal alignment. Higher up, CertiPUR-US®* certified ½” gel-infused memory foam and a 3” Euro pillow top with Lumbar Zone® quilting come into play.

*CertiPUR-US® is a registered trademark of the Alliance for Flexible Polyurethane Foam, Inc. 

Features a stretch-knit cover designed to wick away moisture, above a memory foam layer over the innersprings. A high-density innerspring border allows you to sit or sleep on the edge of the mattress without it sagging over time. A system of four air vents allow air to move out of the mattress and pull away body heat.

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.

This mattress contains gel memory foam for back support.

Cooling Features

The cover is made with breathable organic cotton that sleeps cool. The dual-coil design promotes airflow too, helping disperse body heat.

The cover is designed to wick away moisture. Ventilated coil systems paired with external air vents help prevent heat from building up in your mattress.

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.
