I really wanted something soft and cushiony.īut, the general rule of thumb with a new mattress is that you have to give it 30 days before you make a final decision on whether it’s right for you. It felt a lot firmer than I expected, and I didn’t really sink into it. Based on the looks of the mattress, I had expected a soft, all-enveloping cloud of plushness to wrap around me, but that was not the case. When I plopped down on the mattress and sprawled out, my initial reaction was disappointment. I opened my windows, and the smell was gone within a couple of hours. The cover is made with organic materials, and the mattress flame retardant is made from natural thistle, so I wasn’t too concerned about it. Right away, I noticed a slightly off-putting smell. The pillow top is several inches thick with a firmness rating of 3 out of 10.Īs soon as I locked the door behind the delivery guys, I ran up to my room to check it out. As someone who likes to sink into a mattress, I went with the plush soft option.

When ordering the mattress, there are three firmness options-plush soft, luxury firm (their most popular), and firm.

I could see the difference with the Saatva. A lot of manufacturers claim that their hybrid mattresses are extra plush or have pillow tops. I was immediately drawn to the Saatva Classic’s plush, tufted pillow top, and I couldn’t wait to try it. Unlike its mattress-in-a-box counterparts, I appreciated that I did not have to wait for the mattress to expand before sleeping on it. The actual delivery process was done in about 15 minutes, and my mattress was ready for a nap right away. For starters, instead of coming in a box that’s dropped off on your doorstep, it was fully expanded, wrapped in plastic, and hand-delivered into my bedroom. I didn’t mind waiting for two weeks because, in my opinion, having my mattress made to order was worth the additional time.Īs soon as the Saatva mattress arrived, I knew it was different from the other online options. It took a couple of weeks to get the mattress because they’re all handmade to order. Read on to see if it lived up to my high standards. The handmade Saatva Classic Mattress has a plush pillow top and promises to reduced aches and pains. But with so many options out there, finding the best mattress can be a chore, especially if you’re shopping online. If you have the wrong mattress, it can lead to discomfort, aches, and pains that interfere with your sleep quality and quality of life. While many things play a role in how well you sleep, your mattress tops the list. Keep reading for our full product review.
