  • Every Saatva mattress is crafted when you order it. We assemble all our mattresses in America with care and pride, using only the highest quality, globally sourced materials. We could have settled on cheaper materials and produced our mattresses elsewhere for higher profits, but we've never wavered in our commitment to quality. We believe it's the right thing to do for our customers, our American workers, and our economy.

  • Every Saatva Rx mattress features:

    • Cover made with organic cotton.

    • Guardin™ botanical antimicrobial treatment

    • Eco-friendly foams that are CertiPUR-US®* certified to meet their rigorous standards for emissions, content and durability

    • Recycled steel coils

    • Flame retardant barrier made from natural thistle pulp without toxic chemical sprays or fiberglass

    • Base panels on our single-sided mattresses are made with REPREVE® recycled polyester which removes four single-use plastic bottles from the waste stream with every Queen mattress made

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

  • Sit back and relax while we do all the work. Our free white glove delivery includes in-room delivery and set up. We'll even take away your old mattress at no additional cost to you. Just select free mattress removal at checkout.

  • At Saatva, we never pressure you to make up your mind quickly. All of our mattresses come with a 365-night home trial, so you have plenty of time to decide whether it’s right for you. If at any point during your home trial you’re not satisfied, just give us a call and we’ll come pick up the mattress and refund your money, less a $99 processing fee to cover our cost of gas and labor for the pickup. That’s it.

  • Saatva Rx is the first mattress on the market specifically designed to help sleepers dealing with serious & chronic joint and back conditions*. Its unique construction was designed to support, cradle, and contour to the body like no other mattress, which may help alleviate the daily aches & discomfort associated with these chronic conditions.

    *Please note that products and claims on this site and any Company linked sites have not been evaluated by any official institution and are not meant to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure any illness or disease nor do we promise or guarantee that it will give you relief from any injury or ailment.

  • Yes. Mattresses that contour and conform to the body’s curves help relieve pressure points, which helps improve circulation and alleviate joint pain.

    Saatva Rx is designed with multiple layers of body-contouring foams, including our proprietary Rx foam modules which relieve pressure points unlike any other type of mattress.

  • Saatva Rx features a new & groundbreaking coil core system called the Therapeutic Support Core™. It's made up of our proprietary Rx Foam Module™ encased on top of individually pocketed coils.

    The result is a mattress that automatically adjusts and contours to every curve and movement better than any single-layer foam. This virtually eliminates pressure points in problem areas to allow for therapeutic relief and more restorative sleep.

  • No. We never use fiberglass or toxic chemical flame retardants/barriers in any of our mattresses. Instead, we use either plant-based flame barriers, a Paladin flame barrier made with a blend of poly & rayon fibers, or organic New Zealand wool in our mattresses to meet federal safety standards.

  • The following Saatva mattresses use a natural, plant-based thistle flame retardant made of wood pulp bonded with a small amount of polyester:

    • Saatva Classic

    • Saatva HD

    • Saatva Youth

    • Memory Foam Hybrid (also contains natural wool as a flame retardant)

    The following Saatva mattresses use 100% GOTS certified organic New Zealand wool as a natural flame retardant:

    • Zenhaven Latex

    • Saatva Latex Hybrid

    • Crib Mattress

    Solaire adjustable firmness mattress uses Paladin, which is composed of flame retardant rayon fibers blended with polyester fibers.

    Contour5 memory foam mattress is covered on all six sides with a GREENGUARD®* Gold Certified natural flame barrier made of nontoxic cellulose fibers derived from tree byproducts.

    Bunk & Trundle mattress uses a nontoxic natural thistle & wool blend flame barrier.

    We do not use any harmful chemicals or sprays in any of our mattresses.

  • Our Zenhaven, Latex Hybrid, Saatva HD, and Solaire mattresses do not need to be rotated from head to foot. This is due to the 5-zone alignment of the latex layer in those mattresses.

    Our other mattresses can be rotated. We recommend rotating the mattress after six months and then once a year after that. This will ensure that the surface of the mattress breaks in evenly.

  • As part of regular maintenance, vacuum your mattress at least twice a year to get rid of dust, crumbs, and other icky things that might be living in there. You can also deodorize your mattress by generously sprinkling it with baking soda. Leave it on for a full day and then vacuum it up to refresh your mattress.

    Tip: Adding a mattress pad over your mattress gives it an added layer of protection from stains, moisture, and debris. Just make sure to wash your mattress pad regularly.

    For more mattress care tips, check out this blog.

  • No. Bed in a box (BIAB) mattresses are compressed, shrink-wrapped, folded, then rolled into a cardboard box for shipping. While this allows BIAB companies to save on freight costs, it takes a severe toll on the integrity of the foam mattress by breaking down the cell structure of the foams. It can also result in uneven firmness and sinking support in some areas, reducing the overall lifespan of the mattress.

    We believe your bed deserves better than being stuffed in a box. That’s why all Saatva mattresses come with FREE white glove delivery and in-home set up. We even take away your old mattress for free!

  • Personal and aesthetic preferences are among the factors to consider when choosing the ideal mattress height/thickness. As a rule, mattress thickness alone is not an indicator of quality; that's more a function of mattress material and construction.

    A thicker mattress might be right for you if:

    • You have a larger body or are taller

    • You want to get on and off your bed with ease

    • Your bed frame or headboard requires a thicker/taller mattress

    A thinner mattress might be right for you if:

    • You don’t want to deal with a heavier mattress

    • You're shorter and don’t want to climb up into bed

    • You don’t want to purchase deep pocket or extra-deep pocket sheets

    Below are the heights (or thicknesses) of our Saatva mattresses:

    • Saatva Classic: 11.5" or 14.5"

    • Contour5: 12.5"

    • Latex Hybrid: 12"

    • Zenhaven: 10"

    • Saatva HD: 15.5"

    • Solaire: 13"

    • Memory Foam Hybrid: 11.5"

    • Rx: 15"

    If you place your mattress on a foundation, Saatva foundations are available in standard height (8.75") and low profile (4.75"). You can mix and match the thickness of a mattress and foundation to get the overall bed height that works best for you.

    Read our blog to learn more about finding the perfect mattress height for you.

  • You can use your existing box spring or foundation if:

    • You purchased your box spring or foundation within the last seven years

    • Your existing box spring or foundation is in good condition and provides sturdy center support

    NOTE: Saatva HD requires pairing with the HD Foundation for adequate support.

    Saatva mattresses also work with platform beds, without the need for a foundation or box spring. Please make sure your existing platform bed has the following:

    • A solid, durable surface. If your platform has a slatted support system, make sure the slats are spaced less than 4" apart. If they're not, you can add a 1/2" thick piece of plywood or a bunkie board over the slats for optimal support. This extra layer of support is needed because Saatva mattresses are heavier due to their premium quality materials

    • A proper center support. This means you must have a center leg in the middle of your platform bed frame

    NOTE: When used with our dual-sided Zenhaven mattress, you must add a solid surface over platform slats such as plywood, masonite board, or bunkie board.

    If you have any questions, you can reach one of our sleep guides 24/7 at 1-877-672-2882.

  • Saatva mattresses are compatible with any bed frame, including our Saatva bed frames.

    Our dual-sided Zenhaven latex mattresses cannot be placed directly on a platform bed frame with slats. You must cover the slats with a solid material, such as plywood or a bunkie board.

    Non-platform (standard) bed frames require a foundation and can be paired with any mattress. Note that we strongly suggest pairing the Saatva HD with the HD foundation, which is specifically designed to give it optimal support.

  • Adjustable bases work with mattresses that are designed to flex without shifting the inner materials or weakening the structure.

    Saatva adjustable bases are compatible with the following Saatva mattresses:

    • Saatva Classic Luxury Hybrid Innerspring (11.5-inch height only)

    • Contour5 Cooling Memory Foam

    • Memory Foam Hybrid

    •Saatva Latex Hybrid

    •Zenhaven Latex

    •Solaire Adjustable

    •Saatva Rx

    If you'd like to pair your adjustable bed base with a non-Saatva mattress, contact the manufacturer to check if it's compatible with an adjustable base.

  • A Split King mattress has the exact same dimensions as a king mattress, but made up of two separate Twin XL mattresses. This is a great option for those who have narrow entryways and staircases.

    Split King is also a great option for couples who want a king size mattress, but have different firmness preferences. Simply order two separate Twin XL mattresses in different comfort/firmness options. If ordering two different mattress styles, be mindful of the mattress heights for each mattress.

    Lastly, Split King mattresses are great paired with a Split King adjustable base so that each sleeper can control the head and foot incline/decline on their side independently from their partner.

    To order a Split King consisting of two different mattress types, add the two Twin XLs you want to your cart separately rather than selecting Split King size. If you need any assistance placing the order, give our sleep guides a call at 877-672-2882.

    Note that the most common reason people exchange is for a different mattress size or height, so be sure to measure the height of your bed frame, adjustable base, and/or foundation/box spring before ordering. You can also call one of our friendly sleep guides for assistance 24/7.

    We never resell returned mattresses. Instead, we donate them to veterans' shelters or offer them at cost to employees and associates across our network of more than 150 delivery partners.

  • Every Saatva mattress is made to order, which means they don't sit in storage.

    Occasionally, we can shorten the delivery time when we have a change or cancellation from another order of the exact same product. This allows us to redirect that freshly made and sealed mattress to you. We’d love to help in any way if you need your mattress faster. Our friendly sleep guides are here for you 24/7 at 1-877-672-2882.

  • All of our mattresses are made to order and arrive to you factory fresh. That means the high-quality materials inside them need a little bit of time to soften up. You should notice your new mattress begin to conform to your body after a few days. You may even notice continuing improvement for up to a month.

    Remember that your body will need some time to adjust to a brand new mattress. If you've been sleeping on an old mattress, your body likely got used to it, even if it didn't provide you with adequate support. That's why we give you a generous 365-night home trial to give you time to acclimate to your new mattress.

    If after a month or so, you still feel that your mattress is too firm (or too soft), give us a call at 1-877-672-2882 and one of our friendly sleep guides will be happy to help you.

  • We offer a year-round $225 discount off orders of $1,000 or more to active military, veterans, first responders, government employees, nurses, teachers, senior citizens & students. To apply the discount, simply click on the "Discount for first responders & more" box at checkout. You will be prompted to register with ID.me to verify your status and receive the discount. Note that your cart will automatically apply the larger discount if there is a promotional sale on Saatva.com that is better than your ID.me discount.

    We also occasionally offer promotional sales for limited time periods on our products on Saatva.com and Saatva Viewing Rooms. To be one of the first to learn about our latest sales, sign up for our mailing list at our site footer or text BED to SAATVA (722882). You can unsubscribe at any time.

  • No. It’s part of our pledge to be honest and transparent about what you’re buying. Saatva is committed to giving you honest guidance, even if it means directing you to another mattress brand that’s a better fit for you. In a regular mattress store environment, a commissioned employee makes more money when they sell you a particular brand, so you may get pressured into a choice that’s not right for you. That’s just not the Saatva way.

  • Mattresses crafted in the U.S.A. must meet strict health, safety, and environmental standards. The U.S. and the E.U. have the toughest regulations, but other countries may not offer the same protections.

    Knowing where your mattress is crafted makes it easier to ensure that the manufacturer adheres to guidelines that protect workers from danger and exploitation, such as labor regulations and minimum-wage laws. Reputable mattress manufacturers (like our network of 14 domestic factories) also work to minimize environmental impact by incorporating low-carbon-footprint processes and recycled materials into their products.

  • Laws in California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island require us to collect a small fee at checkout for every mattress, foundation, and adjustable base sold. 

    The fees are used to fund recycling efforts in these states, as part of a program called Bye Bye Mattress. This program is operated by the Mattress Recycling Council, a nonprofit organization started by the mattress industry. The fees go toward the collection and processing of discarded mattresses and foundations.

    Per state laws, we have to collect the fee even if you don't plan on getting rid of your old mattress right now. Mattresses don't last forever—eventually, you'll have to discard your old one, and the fees will help cover the recycling costs when the time comes. 

    About 20 million mattresses end up in U.S. landfills every year—that's about 55,000 per day—and that can take a toll on the environment. Since 2015, Bye Bye Mattress has helped reduce the number of mattresses that end up in landfills by recycling six million mattresses. 

    Recycling a mattress has many benefits: It conserves resources, with recyclable materials such as foam padding, steel springs, and wooden frames being used to make new products; it creates recycling jobs; it reduces the number of illegally dumped mattresses; and it results in less reliance on landfills.

Find the right bed setup for you

Comfort starts from the ground up. The right bed base not only upgrades your sleep comfort, it can increase the lifespan of your mattress.
Let's break down all of the options:

Platform Bed Frame

This setup is great for:

  • A sleek, low-profile look
  • Those who prefer not to use a foundation or box spring

Standard Bed Frame + Foundation

Foundation vs. box spring: What’s the difference?

  • Mattresses that require solid surface support (no slats), like our Zenhaven Latex Mattress & Saatva HD

Compatible with:

All mattresses (Our Saatva HD requires the HD foundation for optimal support)

Foundation

Foundation vs. box spring: What’s the difference?

A mattress foundation is a new & improved version of the old-fashioned box spring. Foundations use more stable wood support slats, while box springs use bouncier metal coils for support.

This setup is great for:

  • Minimalists who want the simplest and least expensive bed setup
  • Those who move often and don’t want to disassemble a large bed frame each time

Compatible with:

All mattresses (Our Saatva HD requires the HD foundation for optimal support)

Optional Universal Frame sold separately

Every Saatva mattress is handcrafted and assembled when you order it. Unlike other internet mattresses, we'd never dream of compressing our premium beds into a small box. Doing so can reduce its lifespan and compromise your comfort.
