We’re constantly testing new mattresses and sleep products to give you the most accurate and up-to-date recommendations. Read more about our mattress review methodology.

Most of us spend about a third of our lives on a mattress. Yet the idea of researching and shopping for one ranks somewhere between filing taxes and waiting at the DMV on most people's to-do lists. The price tags can cause sticker shock. The endless sea of almost identical white rectangles becomes a blur. And trying to understand industry terms like "zoned support" and "phase-change material" feels like learning a new language. But even though mattress shopping may not be fun, it is important. The quality of your sleep impacts your overall health.

A high-quality mattress is important for a good night's sleep, and if you’re experiencing concerns like lower back pain, you’ll want a mattress that provides relief and lasts a long time.¹ “It should keep the body stable, reduce pressure in common strain areas, and stay consistent as it ages. A good mattress should support you every night, not just when it’s new,” said Mark El-Hayek, a chiropractor and owner of Spine and Posture Care.

Our testers love Saatva mattresses, and it often tops our lists. You’ll find it in the best mattress for back pain, the best mattress for side sleepers, the best mattress for neck pain, and more. We’ve personally tested several Saatva mattresses: Saatva Classic, Saatva Rx, Saatva Solaire, and Saatva Latex Hybrid. Read on to see how each of these mattresses might give you a better night's sleep.

Why choose Saatva?

Saatva offers an impressive 365-day trial period. We appreciate the brand’s commitment to customer satisfaction, which allows you to try the mattress at home for up to a year. If you aren’t satisfied, you can return or exchange the mattress for a $99 fee. Many other mattress brands offer 100- or 120-day trial periods. Saatva also offers white-glove delivery at no extra charge. So when you buy a Saatva mattress, they’ll deliver it, set it up in your room, and take away the packaging. In most cases, they'll also dispose of your old mattress. We like that the brand offers 24/7 customer support. If you need help at 3 a.m., you can call them and talk to a real person. This is something no other brand we review can say.

The popular Saatva Classic combines luxury features at a reasonable price, which you’ll see in the Saatva Classic mattress review below. The Saatva Rx has excellent pressure relief and support for those who have chronic pain, making it a great mattress for arthritis and sciatica. The Saatva Solaire offers a range of firmness levels and is a flippable mattress, meeting many sleeping preferences and needs. Saatva also makes many other mattresses, and we’ll be testing them all. So check back to see if the Saatva you’re shopping for has made it into our review.

Need help picking out the right mattress?

Answer 3 simple questions to find a mattress that meets your needs.

The Classic: Saatva's Flagship Mattress

The Saatva Classic is the brand’s bestselling mattress. It comes in three different firmness levels: plush soft, luxury firm, and firm, so sleepers can customize the bed to their preferences. It features a Euro pillow top and a dual-coil design that contours to your curves and relieves pressure and pain. These features earned it a spot on our list of the best mattresses for back pain.

Saatva Classic

The Flagship

Visit Site

Mattress type: Innerspring

Brand firmness rating: 3 firmness levels available

Pain relief score: 4.8/5
Ideal sleeping position: Back, stomach, combination
Uses Saatva’s patented Lumbar Zone Technology^Ⓡfor extra lower back support
Features a hypoallergenic, breathable organic cotton cover

Pros

Excellent edge support for those who need assistance getting out of bed
High testing scores for support and pressure relief in every sleeping position
Three firmness options (plush soft, luxury firm, and firm)

Cons

Motion isolation wasn’t as good as other mattresses we tested
Coiling system might be a little too bouncy for some people

Our experience with the Saatva Classic

The Saatva Classic is the most popular mattress in the Saatva lineup. An innerspring mattress with a dual-coil design, it strikes a balance between supportive firmness and a comfortable pillow-top softness.

When we go to sleep, the body should fully relax, reducing tension in the body. If a mattress doesn’t provide the right support, the body may sink too much or not enough. This puts extra pressure on the joints and muscles, which can lead to stiffness in the joints and muscle fatigue by morning.” —Mark El-Hayek, chiropractor

Our testers loved the Saatva Classic’s solid edge support. During testing, one of our testers could lie right at the edge without feeling like they would fall off. “Even with laying and readjusting, I feel supported on the edge,” said a tester. “If I lay on my mattress at home in this position, I would be on the floor!”

A woman sitting on the edge of the Saatva Classic mattress — Our testers were impressed with the edge support of the Saatva Classic.

The Saatva Classic also has excellent bounce and responsiveness, earning it a 5/5, which makes it easier to move on and switch positions. One tester said the mattress helped them move their body when rolling. “I didn’t struggle with the fabric or feel the need to use extra effort.”

But the testers felt the motion isolation was lacking in the Saatva Classic. Motion isolation is how well your mattress can absorb movement on one side of the bed, so you don’t feel it on the other side. During testing, we could feel some of a bed partner's movements. “I felt bounced, with a little bit of a ripple effect,” said a tester. “I definitely think this motion would wake me up to the point where I’d be annoyed.”

Very comfortable. My shoulders and arms are even with my hips. I can feel the contour on my lower back and there isn't a hollow spot. This is perfect—I will see you in an hour after this nap!” —A Saatva Classic tester

Who is the Saatva Classic right for?

Because of its lower-than-average motion isolation scores, the Saatva Classic might be good for you if you’re not bothered by your bed partner’s movements. It’s a good choice for those who need sturdy edge support to assist in getting out of bed. We felt supported and comfortable in every sleeping position, so we feel confident that the Saatva Classic can suit a variety of sleeping positions and body weights.

This mattress may work for me if I:
Sleep with a partner	No
Have chronic pain	Yes
Feel hot at night	No
Have mobility concerns	Yes
Sleep in the following positions:	Side, back, stomach

Who should choose a different mattress?

Those who are easily disturbed by a restless bed partner, due to the bouncy responsiveness.
Those are looking for mattresses offering extra targeted support for back and joint pain.

The Rx: Saatva’s therapeutic support mattress

Saatva designed the Rx for adults with chronic back and joint pain. It offers extra targeted support for the lower back to relieve back pain and keep the spine in a healthy, neutral position. The Rx features exceptional pressure relief and comfort, earning our top pick as the best mattress for neck pain.

Saatva Rx

Therapeutic Support

Visit Site

Mattress type: Hybrid (memory foam and coils)

Brand firmness rating: Supportive Plush (3-4/10)

Pain relief score: 4.3/5
Ideal sleeping positions: Back, stomach, side, combination
Uses Saatva’s Therapeutic Support Core^TM to adjust to the body’s movements and relieve pressure
Provides enhanced back support and responsiveness

Pros

Excellent pressure relief for those who experience chronic pain
Mattress stays cool
Supportive for all sleeping positions

Cons

Lower than average edge support
Average motion isolation, which could cause sleep disruption with bigger movements
Edge support wasn’t as sturdy as the Saatva Classic

Our experience with the Saatva Rx

The Saatva Rx scored well throughout our testing categories, though it really shines in addressing joint and back pain. During testing, we were impressed with the Rx’s support, pressure relief, bounce, and cooling abilities.

Our testers were less impressed with the Saatva Rx’s edge support, especially compared to the Saatva Classic. They thought there was a lot of sinkage at the edge, and it felt like they were falling forward. The mattress also earned mixed reviews on motion isolation. While one of our testers thought they could sleep through their partner’s movements, another noted they felt motion when the partner got into bed.

“Your partner’s movements from shifting or leaving the bed can spread across the mattress to you, causing brief disturbances even if you don't fully wake up,” said El-Hayek. “Even small interruptions can prevent people from staying in the deeper stages of sleep that help the body recover.”

A woman rolling over on a Saatva Rx mattress — Our testers found the Saatva Rx comfortable in all sleeping positions and felt it was easy to move around.

If you like to sleep in different positions throughout the night, you might like the support and pressure relief of the Saatva Rx. One of our combination sleepers spent time lying in each position—back, stomach, and side sleeping—and noted that the pressure felt evenly spread out throughout their body.

Another tester added that they felt the mattress was hugging their body evenly all over. When your body weight is distributed, you feel less pressure on your joints. Pressure points can start to cause you pain down the road.

I really love this mattress. I feel supported down my side and my legs. My shoulder does not have pressure on it and my weight feels evenly distributed. The mattress is hugging my body gently and feels really good.”—A Saatva Rx tester

Who is the Saatva Rx right for?

Anyone experiencing regular aches and pains or more bothersome chronic pain may benefit from the Saatva Rx. Because of its perfect 5/5 score for support, and almost perfect score for pressure relief of 4.5/5, we think it can help with painful joints or for those who need a little extra support while they sleep. Plus, not all mattresses are ideal for stomach sleeping, due to their lack of low back and neck support. But our testers were comfortable sleeping in all positions, including on their stomach.

This mattress may work for me if I:
Sleep with a partner	Yes
Have chronic pain	Yes
Feel hot at night	Yes
Have mobility concerns	Yes
Sleep in the following positions:	Side, back, stomach

Who should choose a different mattress?

Those who need good edge support for assistance getting out of bed.
Those who are easily disturbed by a bed partner's movements.

The Solaire: Saatva’s mattress with adjustable firmness

Built with air chambers that let sleepers adjust the mattress’s firmness via remote, the Saatva Solaire is customizable for all types of sleepers. Couples with different sleep preferences will appreciate the Solaire’s ability to adjust each side separately on queen-size and larger beds. The Solaire's unique adjustments make it a great Sleep Number alternative.

Saatva Solaire

Visit Site

Mattress type: Air chambers, latex, and foam levels

Brand firmness rating: 50 different firmness levels

Pain relief score: 4.3/5
Ideal sleeping position: Back, side, stomach, combination
Flippable, offering natural latex on one side and memory foam on the other
Hypoallergenic, breathable cotton cover

Pros

Excellent edge support
Good motion isolation
Customizable with 50 firmness options, and the ability to flip the mattress from memory foam to latex

Cons

More expensive than the other Saatva mattresses reviewed
Cooling features weren’t as obvious, according to our testers

Our experience with the Saatva Solaire

While it was the most expensive option of the Saatva mattresses we tested, the Saatva Solaire has an impressive 50 firmness options. You can also flip the mattress to either the responsive latex side or the contouring memory foam side.

Our testers were happy with the solid edge support the Saatva Solaire offers, commenting that when moving around on the bed, they didn’t notice a difference being in the middle of the bed versus the edge, because it all felt the same support. One tester noted, “There was no difficulty getting in and out of bed. It had a good bounce and popped back quickly.” Our testing scores supported this, as the Solaire earned a 4/5 for bounce.

A woman sitting on the edge of the Saatva Solaire mattress — Our testers found the Saatva Solaire to have solid edge support and was easy to move around on.

Stomach sleeping felt good to one of our testers, which not all mattresses can boast about. You often need a firm sleeping surface so your lower back doesn’t sink down.² This can put your spine out of alignment and cause pain over time while stomach-sleeping. Our tester commented, “It feels equally supported. I don’t feel any curvature or pinching in my lower back. My spine feels good.”

But side sleeping caused some added pressure on the hips in one of our testers. They felt their lower back was sinking more than their shoulders while lying on their back.

The motion isolation seemed better than with the Solaire or the Classic, earning another 4/5. One tester said, “I felt it more when [my partner] moved than when they got into the bed, but it wasn't very pronounced. It was a really mild movement. I think I could've slept through that.”

The fluffy quilted top is really nice and helps me stay on top of the mattress for some airflow. Definitely feels like my body is warming up, but slower than most others I've tested.”—A Saatva Solaire tester

Who is the Saatva Solaire right for?

The Saatva Solaire is great for those who love to adjust the firmness setting. After all, there are 50 to choose from. If you dream of a customizable mattress that you can switch from memory foam to latex, you can flip this one to your heart’s (or joints’) content. Your firmness needs can change with recurring joint inflammation or injuries like muscle strains, and the Solaire allows you to adjust based on how you feel that night. It’s also great for couples who like different firmness options.

This mattress may work for me if I:
Sleep with a partner	Yes
Have chronic pain	Yes
Feel hot at night	Maybe
Have mobility concerns	Yes
Sleep in the following positions	Side, back, stomach

Who should choose a different mattress?

Those who sleep hot may not find this mattress cool enough. We gave the cooling features an average score of 3/5.
Shoppers on a budget might want to look for less expensive options.

The Latex Hybrid: Saatva's eco-friendly hybrid

Saatva’s Latex Hybrid is built with breathable, plush latex foam. It features a supportive inner core of individually wrapped coils. The Latex Hybrid balances organic latex, cotton, and wool with Saatva’s zoned lower-back support.

Our experience with the Saatva Latex Hybrid

The Saatva Latex Hybrid is a medium-firm mattress. It combines the support and durability of an innerspring core with 5 layers of latex foam. The mattress features an organic cotton, hand-tufted Euro-top cover for a soft, breathable sleeping surface.

Our testers were most pleased with the Latex Hybrid's pressure relief. They found the side and back sleeping positions best, commenting on how comfortable they felt in the bed. “This is perfect, I will see you in an hour after this nap,” one tester said of the back sleeping position. “I really feel great in this position for this mattress, it is unbelievable. Very comfortable. My shoulders and my arms are even with my hips. I can feel the contour on my lower back, and there isn't a hollow spot. Contouring very nicely.” Our testing scores support this as the Latex Hybrid earned a 4/5 for pressure relief.

A man lying on his side on the Saatva Latex Hybrid mattress — Our testers were impressed with how comfortable the Saatva Latex Hybrid mattress was for side sleeping.

Side sleeping also felt good to our testers. They observed a neutral spine in this position and felt they could comfortably sleep there.

Our testers also had great things to say about the bed's bounce. They noted how easily they could move on the Latex Hybrid when changing positions. “I feel like the mattress helps move my body,” our tester said. “It springs me and moves with me. When I rolled back over the bed felt supportive, and I didn't feel like I would fall.” Our testing scores supported this, as the Latex Hybrid earned a 4/5 for bounce.

I feel like I am more on top of the mattress but it is not stiff. The topper feels like it is plush enough but still firm.”

—One of our Saatva Latex Hybrid testers

Who is the Saatva Latex Hybrid right for?

The Saatva Latex Hybrid could be a good choice for side or back sleepers. We recommend it for those who sleep alone or don’t sleep lightly enough to be disturbed by a partner’s movements. It provides good support and enjoyable pressure relief. Our testers felt it helped prevent pain buildup in common areas like the hips and neck.

I may love it if I:
Sleep with a partner	No
Have chronic pain	Yes
Feel hot at night	No
Have mobility concerns	Yes
Sleep in the following positions	Side, back

Who should keep looking for their perfect mattress?

Those who sleep with a partner and wake easily when their partner moves around. We gave the motion isolation a score of 2.5/5.
Sleepers who run hot at night. We gave the Saatva Latex Hybrid a cooling score of 3/5.

Saatva mattress costs

Saatva offers high-quality mattresses that often come with a higher price tag. Throughout our testing, we were impressed by how Saatva mattresses performed, especially in pain relief, durability, construction quality, and customer service. We do feel Saatva’s company policies provide a good value that offsets some of the costs, such as a 365-night trial, a limited lifetime warranty, and free white-glove delivery.

A person holding up the cover of the Saatva Solaire mattress to show its layers — In our testing, we inspect every mattress, pulling back the layers to see its materials and construction.

While we understand the reasoning behind Saatva’s higher costs, this brand doesn’t fit every budget. If you’re looking for mattress options across a wider price range, you may want to check out some of our mattress roundups, like our list of the best mattresses for sciatica.

Coming Soon: Mattresses next in our testing queue

We are always testing new mattresses. We also routinely retest bestselling mattresses to deepen our understanding and confirm our previous results. These models are currently in line to be tested:

Saatva Contour5

Unlike the other Saatva mattresses we tested, the Contour5 is made of memory foam that uses cooling technology, such as Lumbar Zone PCM Maxtrix positioned in the middle third of the mattress, to help remove your body heat. This gives you better temperature regulation while cradling pressure points in contouring memory foam.

The Saatva customer experience

Saatva offers an impressive 365-night trial period to test out your mattress to see if you really want to commit. This is much longer than other brands’ trial periods, which are usually 100 or 120 nights. If you want to return the mattress, you’ll have to pay a $99 fee. Saatva also offers a lifetime warranty.

You also get free shipping and free white-glove delivery, which is quite convenient if you live alone or don’t have anyone to help you set up. Plus, it can be difficult to figure out what to do with an old mattress.
