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.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n

\n

The Lumbar Zone\u00ae PCM Matrix is positioned at the center third of the mattress (where most of your body weight lies) to regulate temperature, absorb and disperse excess body heat, and allow for optimal support where you need it most.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n

\n
<\/div>\n Cooling Features<\/span>\n <\/h3>\n\n

The cover is made with breathable organic cotton that sleeps cool. The dual-coil design promotes airflow too, helping disperse body heat.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n

The cover is made with breathable organic cotton that sleeps cool. The CoolVent\u2122 System contains a phase change material that absorbs and disperses excess body heat, while the gel-infused 4-lb. memory foam has airflow channels for added breathability.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n

\n
<\/div>\n Firmness Options<\/span>\n <\/h3>\n\n
\n
\n

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.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n

\n

The Contour5 comes in two firmnesses: Medium and Firm. Medium hugs the body without letting your hips sink in too deeply. It’s ideal for side sleepers but also great for back and combination sleepers and couples with different preferences. Firm has less of a body-hugging feel and more responsiveness than Medium. It’s ideal for back and stomach sleepers, those who need or prefer a firm mattress, and heavier sleepers who weigh over 230 pounds.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
