Keep in mind: Saatva just recently updated the Zenhaven, changing the type of latex used in its foam layers. The Zenhaven now features Dunlop latex, instead of Talalay latex; learn more about the differences below. We prepare to test the brand-new version soon and will update this guide with our impressions.
The Zenhaven is also flippable (the Luxury Plush side feels medium-firm, while the Mild Firm side feels a bit firmer), which may show practical if you’re not sure what you choose or if your needs change over time. This is not a conventionally cushy mattress, but it offers a supple cushion, great edge assistance, and a subtle springiness.
For this review, I slept on the Saatva Classic, the Loom & Leaf, and the Zenhaven mattresses for several weeks in my own home. These mattresses were likewise assessed in our group tests carried out for Wirecutter’s guides to the best foam mattresses and the finest innerspring bed mattress. As Wirecutter’s senior staff author for sleep, I have actually interviewed scores of specialists in the mattress industry and in products science; checked out lots of mattress stores, showrooms, and factories; and read the small print on specifications, warranties, and return policies. Most recently, monitoring editor Courtney Schley assessed the Saatva Latex Hybrid in her house for several weeks.
Understanding Saatva Saatva’s portfolio of beds– many with a choice of firmness levels and catering to practically every convenience choice– consists of: Saatva Classic ( innerspring).
Loom & Leaf ( all foam).
Zenhaven ( all latex).
Saatva Latex Hybrid ( latex with coils).
Solaire ( a bed with adjustable air chambers). Ghostbed Alexa
Saatva HD ( a latex-coil hybrid created for sleepers who weigh 300 to 500 pounds).
Saatva Youth ( a foam-coil hybrid for kids ages 3 through 12).
We have not yet done a deep dive into the “natural” claims of Saatva or of other “environment-friendly” brands. However we do know that the company uses thistle pulp or natural wool as a flame retardant (as opposed to chemicals or fiberglass) and only natural cotton (instead of synthetic blends) in its covers. As do other online bed mattress companies, Saatva promotes such bonus as zoned layers for “optimal spinal column assistance”; we’re less impressed with those features and more appreciative of Saatva’s responsive customer service and durable foams and coils.
