Your body type<\/a> plays an important role in determining the right mattress for you. This article will explore which Saatva mattresses are best for every body type so you can find your most comfortable match. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mattress types to consider<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First, here are the main mattress types and their defining features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innerspring mattress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Innerspring mattresses<\/a> feature steel coils and comfort layers typically made from foam. Some innersprings feature a pillow top<\/a> or a firm top. The coils have a firmer feel and offer adequate support, making the innerspring mattress ideal for heavier sleepers and stomach sleepers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Memory foam mattress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Memory foam<\/a> is a soft material known for contouring to your body. This is how it helps relieve pressure from your joints. Memory foam is a great choice for people with achy joints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Latex mattress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Latex mattresses<\/a> offer pressure relief and excellent overall support. Latex evenly distributes pressure and is best for heavier sleepers as well as lightweight stomach sleepers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hybrid mattress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hybrid mattresses<\/a> combine the steel springs of an innerspring with extra layers of foam. They are great for sleepers who want both the extra support of coils and the pressure relief of foam for their shoulders and hips. The hybrid is best for most body types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Adjustable firmness mattress<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Not to be confused with air mattresses, adjustable firmness mattresses<\/a> are able to inflate or deflate according to your desired firmness level using a special remote or app. Note that adjustable firmness mattresses aren’t the same as adjustable bed bases<\/a> that allow you to move the head or foot of the bed up or down to help elevate your body or legs. An adjustable firmness mattress together with an adjustable base can be very helpful in managing chronic health conditions such as snoring, GERD\/reflux, pain, and circulation issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for every body type<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Next, here’s how to choose the right Saatva mattress for your body type:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"saatva
Saatva HD<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for heavier sleepers <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Most conventional mattresses aren\u2019t made with the needs of high-weight sleepers<\/a> in mind. Support, durability, and sleeping cool are important considerations as are plush comfort for cushioning and pressure relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People who weigh over 230 pounds or so generally will sleep better on a firmer mattress than a softer one. A medium-firm to firm mattress will help keep a heavier person\u2019s spine aligned without sagging. A thicker mattress\u2014at least 12 inches thick for proper support\u2014is also often a better option for heavy people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Saatva HD<\/span>\u00a0hybrid innerspring is our best mattress for heavy people. The mattress is designed specifically with bigger bodies in mind, supporting people weighing up to 500 pounds. Coils in the base are 25% stronger than the industry standard, and memory foam and latex comfort layers sleep cool and add extra cushioning for your joints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"saatva
Saatva Classic<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for lightweight sleepers <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight sleepers do best with a softer mattress that provides adequate pressure relief. The\u00a0Saatva Classic<\/span>\u00a0in Plush Soft is a good choice and is available in every mattress size.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"saatva<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for taller sleepers <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Taller people need a mattress that offers extra length so their feet don\u2019t hang off the bed. The California king is ideal, offering an extra four inches of length than the king even though it’s also four inches narrower than the king. Any of Saatva\u2019s mattresses can work for taller people, and we offer a wide range of\u00a0California king<\/a>\u00a0mattresses.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"saatva
Contour5<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for pregnant sleepers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many pregnant people want extra cushioning when they sleep to ease the aches and pains caused by fluctuating hormones and the strain of extra weight on the front of the body. Consider a memory foam mattress because it\u2019s ideal for relieving pressure points and conforming to a changing body. You can avoid the tendency of memory foam to retain heat\u2014not what expecting parents want when pregnancy already ratchets up body heat\u2014by choosing a gel-infused memory foam mattress that dissipates heat more easily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0Contour5<\/span>\u00a0and\u00a0Zenhaven<\/span>\u00a0mattresses are good choices for pregnancy. Contour5 offers ultra-premium 5-lb. memory foam and high-density foam layers that contour to your body to relieve pressure points while offering stable support. Its gel-infused foam keeps you cool and provides extra support for your lower back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zenhaven\u2019s 5-zone natural latex provides enhanced lower back support and pressure-point relief where you need it most. Its breathable organic cotton, natural latex, and New Zealand wool naturally regulate your body temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"solaire

Best Saatva mattress for couples <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Couples who share a bed, especially if they have different body types and preferences, should consider a split king mattress<\/a>. It’s essentially two twin XL mattresses together. Motion isolation is an important consideration so that one partner\u2019s movements don\u2019t disturb the other\u2019s sleep. Foam mattresses tend to be better at isolating motion than other types of mattresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saatva offers the ultimate personalized sleep comfort for sleep partners in our\u00a0Solaire<\/span>. The luxurious adjustable firmness mattress offers 50 precise firmness settings on both sides, comfort and pressure-relieving support, breathability, and coolness for those who sleep hot, virtually no motion transfer, and quiet, streamlined components.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"saatva
Saatva Youth<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Best Saatva mattress for kids<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Your first considerations in shopping for a mattress for children are your child\u2019s age, body size, and bedroom size. Because of their lighter body weight, children don\u2019t need a super-firm mattress. A firm or medium-firm mattress is best for kids. It will provide the spinal support they need during sleep. The best mattress type for kids is either a hybrid mattress or an innerspring mattress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Saatva Youth<\/a> is a great choice for your growing kids. The flippable mattress is really two mattresses in one: One side is built with the 3- to 7-year-old in mind, while the other side is suited to 8- to 12-year-olds. Its adaptability and durability will provide your child with a healthy, comfortable sleep during their crucial growing years\u2014and will save you the hassle and expense of needing to buy a new mattress midway through those years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

FAQs <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What type of mattress is best for my body?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It depends on your body. If you have a lighter weight, you’ll most likely find a medium-firm mattress to be comfortable\u2014unless you sleep on your side or need pain and pressure relief, in which case you’ll likely want a softer mattress. If you’re on the heavier side, you’ll generally want a firmer bed to get the comfort you need. Hybrid mattresses, combining supportive innerspring coils with foam, can be comfortable and durable. People over 6 feet tall need to keep the mattress size in mind as they aren\u2019t likely to be comfortable in anything smaller than a queen mattress<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Should a heavy person have a firm or soft mattress?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Someone who weighs over 230 pounds or so is likely to sleep better on a firmer mattress than a softer one. A medium-firm to firm mattress will help keep a heavier person\u2019s spine aligned without sagging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
