It does offer great value (See how Saatva compares to leading brands HERE), but I do have a few complaints as well. If you are used to innerspring mattresses (and many people are), you will probably be right at home with the Saatva. It has a smart construction that has that traditional spring feel while being available at a very affordable price. It has nice bounce and you definitely feel that you are sleeping “on” the mattress rather than “in” it. Having said that, it’s not going to be for everyone, as there are certain type of feels that some people prefer more (like a slow-moving memory foam feel). Read further for my full Saatva mattress review.
Who Should Be Interested In Saatva? You Want To Buy Online– Buying a mattress online is becoming more and more popular, and Saatva is one of the few innerspring companies that sells online. You Want Good Value– The online-only business model let’s Saatva compete very well on price compared to more mainstream innerspring brands (think Beautyrest or Stearns & Foster) You Hate Sleeping Hot– Saatva is an innerspring mattress with bio-based foam on top. It does not sleep hot at all. You Want A Mattress With Great Construction and Support– I won’t get into the nitty-gritty details of the construction, but the “coil-on-coil” system the company uses is a major step up from other innerspring competitors at the lower price range. Get Saatva at Factory Direct Prices Why You Might Not Want To Look At Saatva You Want A Memory Foam Feel– Those who are used to memory foam or are seeking out that memory foam feel will not get experience from Saatva.
I would look at other alternatives if this applies to you. You Like To Sink Into The Mattress– Because it isn’t pure foam, you don’t really get the feeling where the mattress envelops around you. You feel you sleep “on” the mattress, rather than “in” the mattress. You Absolutely Need To Try The Mattress Out In A Store– Saatva is available only online, so you won’t know the exact feel beforehand. See how Saatva compares to leading mattress brands Saatva Motion Transfer Test One thing that people worry about with spring mattresses is motion transfer. This is a concern if you’re sleeping with a partner, especially if one of you is known for moving around throughout the night. The Saatva performs well for motion transfer, see the video below: Saatva Firmness and Feel Most people have not slept on a hybrid mattress before, and even if you have, each hybrid is different; some feel more like a spring mattress, while others feel more like a memory foam mattress.
Watch the video below to get an idea of the feel and firmness of the Saatva (the Luxury Firm is shown). The Company Is Somewhat “Greener” Than Most– The company uses bio-based foams and recycled steel. There Will Be A Shipping Charge– Note that Saatva does charge for shipping at the end of the buying process, so make sure to note that as you’re comparing prices with other mattress companies The Bed Is Slightly Firmer Than The Average Bed– The “luxury firm” is what 90% of people buy. It is very comfortable, but is probably slightly on the firmer side of the spectrum. Saatva is one of the first mattresses I reviewed, and interestingly still remains among my top reviewed mattresses. An advantage of Saatva as well is that they have been around for a number of years, so you have the benefit of other user reviews to help you make your decision.

Select All Posts By This User AFAIK best mattresses are in natural latex, no memory foam and no springs, see http://www.pirellibedding.it/ for an example Originally Posted by Mbogo only a single thickness A few European makers to look at: Originally Posted by Trompe le Monde at the high end of mattresses you'll find coiled-spring just as you'll find all-latex. one is not necessarily better than the other (or more expensive). it comes down to the individual mattress and personal preferences. latex does not breathe as well. probably the high-craftsmanship top range mattress are still individually pocketed coil spring (w/ latex layers) Even cheaper mattresses are like that, you can get a compartment coil spring mattress for 400$, so they don't have to be Dunlopillo, Hästen, Auping, Tempur etc. to get that. hi David, we were just in Italy too and I have the same back issues and REALLY want a mattress like we had there, exactly what you are describing...did you find one?
what do you recommend?I too just returned from Europe and I too had the exact same experience-my back pain disappeared. I took a photo of the mattress tag and it was a perilli latex mattress. Can anyone tell me if there are any dealers in Canada, Vancouver or anywhere, where I can get one??? I have been back two days and I my back pain has returned!!! In desperate need of a perilli!!!!!!!

Foam mattresses don't come with box-spring like coil mattresses. The product I got did not have many complaints and the ones that were critical were very few. 14,538 posts, read 42,464,001 times 1,834 posts, read 1,822,788 times 3 pound density2 pound density FOAM FONDATIONSoft on top of firm/hardsoft on top of soft Originally Posted by calnbs I have waited few more months. The backaches disappeared but occasionally my hips ache after sleeping on sides. I also find every few weeks I have to turn my mattress around or else it sags causing backaches. I emailed, manufacturer Soft-Tex about warranty and they said they can exchange if I show picture of mattress with dip, but it does not develop dip on its own. Comfort is excluded from their warranty so it looks like I am out of luck. While I could swallow pride and buy another mattress, I am looking currently for new place to move to which I don't know when it happens and would probably better in meantime to buy good quality air mattress with topper.
