The Saatva Classic mattress is a luxury innerspring mattress known for its high-quality construction, comfort, and durability. It features a coil-on-coil design, making it suitable for various sleeper types, especially back sleepers, combination sleepers, and couples. Available in multiple firmness levels and heights, it caters to a wide range of preferences. Key features include a breathable organic cotton cover, a plush pillow top, individually wrapped pocketed coils, a zoned support layer with memory foam, and a sturdy base of steel coils. The mattress offers excellent edge support, good cooling due to its innerspring design, and a balanced feel of support and cushioning. However, it has average motion isolation, which may not be ideal for light sleepers sharing a bed. The mattress comes with a 365-night trial period, a lifetime warranty, and free white glove delivery service.
