Key Similarities

• Free White Glove Delivery: When you buy a mattress from either Saatva or Beautyrest, it comes with complimentary delivery, mattress setup, and old mattress removal.

• High-Quality Mattresses: Beautyrest and Saatva are both known for their quality construction and durable build made to last for many years.
• Pricing: Both mattress companies craft luxury mattresses that cost more than the average bed. 

Key Differences

• Online vs In-Store: Saatva mattresses are only sold online, while Beautyrest beds may be purchased online or at physical retailers. Saatva’s direct-to-consumer setup means they can offer slightly better deals than Beautyrest. 
• Construction: Every Beautyrest mattress has a similar build that consists of a variety of foams and innerspring coils. Saatva utilizes these materials along with coil-on-coil construction and natural, breathable latex, depending on the mattress model.
• Eco-Friendliness: Saatva is more eco-friendly than Beautyrest. Saatva materials include all-natural materials like organic cotton and Talalay latex. 
• Sleep Trial and Warranty: Saatva’s 365-night sleep trial and lifetime warranty are more generous than Beautyrest’s 100-night trial and 10-year warranty. 

Beautyrest Black Hybrid vs Saatva Classic

Compare Construction

The Beautyrest Black Hybrid is made from generous comfort layers and a robust pocketed coil system. It comes in three models. The Original model has a medium feel that does an excellent job at balancing pressure relief and spinal alignment. The Comfort Upgrade is softer, with a medium-soft feel. Both of these mattresses measure 13” deep. The Comfort + Pressure Relief Upgrade is a soft mattress with a body-hugging feel. It’s even thicker, measuring 15” deep.

The Saatva Classic mattress is a hybrid bed with minimal foam layers and a unique coil-on-coil construction. It comes in plush soft, luxury firm, and firm. The top layer is a plush Euro pillow top with 3” of pressure-relieving foam sewn into an organic cotton cover. There’s a layer of memory foam along the lumbar region for added support and cushion. A layer of comfort coils brings responsive pressure relief, while the sturdier second coil layer adds a springy, supportive feel.

Because the Beautyrest Black Hybrid has thicker foam layers, it’s better at minimizing motion transfer. It also delivers greater pressure relief, excellent for side sleepers. Saatva’s coil-on-coil design provides superior spinal alignment in their Classic mattress. Both mattresses are good for hot sleepers thanks to the breathability of innerspring coils and other cooling technologies.

The Saatva Classic is Much More Affordable

The Beautyrest Black Hybrid costs as much as 2x the price of the Saatva Classic for a queen-size mattress. It comes in an original comfort level or customers can pay for a comfort and pressure relief upgrade. If you’re looking for a twin, split king, or split California king mattress, Saatva is your better choice since Simmons doesn’t offer those sizes in their Beautyrest Black Hybrid.

	Beautyrest Black Hybrid	Saatva Classic
Twin	N/A	$995
Twin XL	$2,349–$3,149	$1,355
Full	$2,629–$3,429	$1,895
Queen	$2,799–$3,599	$1,995
King	$3,299–$4,099	$2,445
Split King	N/A	$2,710
Cal King	$3,299–$4,099	$2,445
Split Cal King	N/A	$2,450

Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond vs Saatva Latex Hybrid

Compare Construction

The Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond mattress is a deeply contouring hybrid bed. Up to six layers of foam create a conforming feeling that’s much like that of a lush memory foam mattress. However, a thick coil system makes it more supportive and cooler than an all-foam mattress. You can choose between the base model or a pillow top option, and the mattress comes in firmnesses that range from quite soft to a more balanced medium. 

The Saatva Latex Hybrid is an all-natural and organic mattress. The organic cotton cover and organic New Zealand wool top layer are soft and breathable. The natural Talalay latex layer creates a buoyant, floating feeling. Both the latex layer and the supportive coil layer are zoned, meaning the heavier areas of your body are supported while your pressure points are cushioned. This mattress is firmer than the Beautyrest with a medium-firm feel.  

Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond: Slightly More Expensive; Many More Options

The Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond and Saatva Latex Hybrid mattresses have a similar price point. However, the Saatva is slightly less expensive than the Beautyrest. The Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond comes with a classic top, or customers can pay an additional fee for a plush, 1.5″ pillow top.

	Beautyrest Harmony Lux Diamond	Saatva Latex Hybrid
Twin	$1,999	$1,295
Twin XL	$2,049–$2,349	$1,495
Full	$2,119–$2,419	$1,995
Queen	$2,199–$2,499	$2,195
King	$2,699–$2,999	$2,595
Split King	N/A	$2,990
Cal King	$2,699–$2,999	$2,595

Beautyrest Black vs Saatva HD

Compare Construction

Simmons Beautyrest Black mattress is their most luxurious bed. That says a lot when we’re talking about a high-end mattress brand. The Black mattress is a hybrid mattress that comes in multiple options. The baseline is 13” thick with contouring memory foam, cooling gel foam, and pocketed coil support. It has a medium-firm firmness level. There is then a Cooling Upgrade with the same firmness and a Cooling + Comfort Upgrade for a softer feel and 15” height. 

The Saatva HD is a medium firmness hybrid mattress that’s designed for plus-size people. The zoned Talalay latex provides buoyant support, keeping the body from sinking in too low. This layer is softer at the shoulders and firmer along the lumbar region for a balanced feel. A supportive layer of tempered steel coils is 25% stronger than those found in most beds, creating a mattress that’s supportive and durable enough for people who weigh more than 230 lbs. 

Compare Prices

The Beautyrest Black comes in multiple models that vary in price. The baseline model is comparable in price to the Saatva HD, costing more for the twin XL but less for some larger mattress sizes. If you opt for the Cooling or Cooling + Comfort Black upgrades, the Beautyrest mattress will cost more than the Saatva HD.

Which Brand Is the Right Choice?

Beautyrest and Saatva both craft high-end hybrid mattresses, with Saatva utilizing more eco-friendly materials. Because Saatva sells directly to the consumer, their mattresses are on average less expensive than Beautyrest beds. Thanks to plush memory foam layers, Beautyrest is better for soft mattress lovers and offers superior motion isolation. 

Most of the mattresses offered by these brands come in multiple firmness options, making them great for every sleeping position. Because Saatva uses materials that are more buoyant and supportive, such as dual coil layers and zoned memory foam, it’s better for plus-size sleepers. Beautyrest’s plush foam layers bring a hugging foam feeling that’s great for side sleepers and lightweight people. 

No matter which brand you choose, you can rest easy knowing that you can try your new mattress out in the comfort of your home. While Saatva’s 365-night trial is longer than Beautyrest’s 100 nights, Saatva charges a $99 return fee and Beautyrest does not.
