Best/Worst Things About Saatva HD

✅ Pros

• Free White Glove Delivery & Set-Up: Nothing beats white glove delivery; at no cost to you, Saatva delivers and sends a team to set up your new mattress, and even removes your old one. All you have to do is open the door, and let them take care of the work for you.
• Cooling: With sleep cool technology and a breathable mattress cover, the Saatva HD helps to keep your body at the optimal temperature all night long. 
• Durability: Constructed from a strong coil system and dense foam, the Saatva HD more than delivers on durability. This mattress uses coils 25% stronger than the industry standard and foam rails that prevent sinking and reinforce the edges of the mattress.
• Specially Formatted HD Foundation: The Saatva HD also goes with a specially formatted HD foundation made to support the mattress. This creates a strong support system and was built with heavier people in mind.
• 5-Zoned Support: A latex layer with targeted support for the shoulders, hips, and back helps to relieve joint pain and also makes this bed ideal for back sleepers.

❌ Cons

• Motion Transfer: The Saatva HD does lack motion transfer, so this mattress would probably move too much for couples and interfere with achieving an uninterrupted night’s rest.
• High Price: This hybrid mattress is on the pricier end of most mattresses, but a good investment nonetheless. The Saatva HD uses high-quality, durable materials, so it may or may not be worth the extra cost to some. Plus, it comes with a lifetime warranty!

What the Saatva HD Feels Like?

Now we’ll take a closer look at all of the practical details you need to know about the Saatva HD. We’ll cover everything from the layers of the mattress to what foundation will best support this hybrid bed.

Saatva HD Firmness Level

The Saatva HD falls at a medium, or 6/10 on the firmness scale, meaning it’s a nice blend of supportive and soft. Medium is usually a pretty popular firmness level, as it can accommodate a variety of sleepers.

If you like the feel of a plush mattress that envelopes you completely, you may prefer the Saatva Solaire, which comes with customizable firmness options. But if you enjoy more sturdy support and a firmer mattress overall, the Saatva HD’s firmness should suit you nicely.

How Does The Saatva HD Support Different Sleeping Positions?

The Saatva HD is a good mattress for back sleepers and a good mattress for stomach sleepers that typically need a more firm mattress. The bed’s medium firmness provides zoned support and spine alignment for back sleepers, helping to relieve back and joint pain. Stomach sleepers would also feel well-supported by this hybrid mattress, and the firmness level would prevent hip sinkage.

Side sleepers may need a more plush mattress for deeper contouring and added relief for pressure points. Head over to our best mattress for side sleepers guide for other recommendations.

The Saatva HD is a good bed for combination sleepers as the bed is decently responsive, but couples and co-sleepers may want to steer clear as this bed lacks proper motion isolation for a peaceful night’s sleep. Check out our best mattress for couples page for other top picks.

Cooling And Temperature Regulation

The Saatva HD scored impressively high for cooling, so hot sleepers—you may have met your match! The combination of latex and foam work in this bed’s favor as the latex layers are naturally antimicrobial and feature advanced cooling technology. The mattress’s cover is made from breathable, organic cotton, so this bed can keep you cool from top to bottom, all night long. Plus the innerspring system helps encourage air flow for more breathability.

Is Saatva HD Good For Heavy People?

The Saatva HD is designed to hold up to 500 lbs for twin and twin XL mattresses and up to 1,000 lbs for full, queen, king, and California king mattresses. Needless to say, this hybrid bed is capable of accommodating many different body types and weights, and is a great choice for heavyweight sleepers.

Suitable Bed Frames

Because the Saatva HD is a durable bed made for plus-sized sleepers, it’s recommended that you purchase the custom HD foundation. The custom HD foundation offers stronger support than a normal foundation or box spring and is specifically crafted for the Saatva HD mattress.

These foundations are available in two heights: 4.75” for those who prefer a lower bed and 8.75” for those who prefer a taller bed height. It’s also recommended that you match the HD mattress with the HD frame for optimal performance.

You still have the option to choose no foundation at checkout, but you should only do so if you already have a solid platform bed. Saatva doesn’t recommend using a slatted foundation or box spring with this mattress.

The Inside Layers

The Saatva HD combines layers of foam, latex, and coils to deliver a supportive, yet comfortable night’s sleep. These elements work together with eco-friendly, high-quality materials to form a durable mattress ideal for heavyweight sleepers.

Shipping and Delivery

The Saatva HD can take anywhere from 7-21 business days to be delivered, depending on where you’re located. All Saatva mattresses are made to order and delivered by hand. White glove delivery and setup is offered at no cost to you, and Saatva will call you the day before your delivery date to give you a 4-hour time window so you can schedule the best time for your mattress delivery and setup.

Saatva also offers free mattress removal, meaning Saatva’s team will remove your old mattress and foundation during the setup process, so they really make the entire delivery process seamless from start to finish.

Sleep Trial

Your Saatva HD mattress comes with a 365-night sleep trial. This means you have a whole year to try out the mattress and gauge if it’s the right fit for you. The trial starts the day your mattress is delivered, and should you find the Saatva HD doesn’t work out for you, you can return your mattress for a full refund, minus a $99 transportation fee, during this trial. All you have to do is give Saatva a call at 1-877-672-2882, and they will come to pick up your mattress for you.

Keep in mind that it can take about 30 days to break in a new mattress. During this time, your body will get used to the new mattress feel and the mattress will have time to fully take shape and provide all of the benefits it was designed to offer.

Warranty

The Saatva HD mattress comes with a lifetime warranty. If your HD mattress is deemed defective during the first 2 years of your warranty, it will be replaced with a brand new mattress at no cost to you. After the first 2 years, Saatva will completely repair and re-cover your mattress for labor costs of $99 each way. There will be no other charges besides this fee.

Saatva also offers a “Fairness Replacement Option”. This means should your mattress be deemed defective, you get to keep your original mattress, while Saatva delivers and installs a brand new Saatva mattress for only 40% of the price you paid, in years 3-5 of your warranty. As your warranty ages, the percentage of the original price you paid increases. For more information, check out Saatva’s site where they go into more detail on this replacement option.

Your Saatva HD warranty will remain valid if the mattress is used on a platform bed and is only valid to the original purchaser. Also, if your platform bed has slats, you must use a layer of solid surface, like plywood, to create a uniform surface in order to preserve the life of the mattress. Because of the Saatva HD’s added strength and durable nature, your warranty will be void if you use this mattress on an adjustable base, or if you use your mattress on anything less than a 5- or 6-legged metal bed frame for Queen and King-sized beds. The warranty does not apply if the bedding of the mattress has been burned, abused, or damaged.

To submit a claim, you can contact Saatva at info@saatvamattress.com or reach their 24/7 concierge service number at 877-672-2882.

What Do Customers Say?

• “The warranty was good and I took the plunge…Order was processed, I was notified when my order was ready and called to schedule delivery. I am very happy so far and definitely notice the difference from my old mattress. I have already recommended them to a friend. This was an easy process with no pressure at all from them. Believe this was a great purchase.” – Lynn L.
• “Love the mattress we bought! Price was much lower than what we would have paid locally, and the service was good. Quick delivery and set up perfect.” – Janet E.
• “Best mattress we have ever owned. Worth every penny! Our only regret is that we didn’t buy one of these years ago. The customer service is awesome. They kept in touch with us before, during and after delivery.” – Ben T.

Should You Buy The Saatva HD?

Thoughtfully designed for heavyweight sleepers, the Saatva HD is the first luxury mattress crafted for plus-size figures. With its premium materials and high-durability coil base, the Saatva HD eliminates the issue most plus-sized sleepers have with sagging and a lack of mid-support.

The Saatva HD also features advanced cooling technology and a specially formatted HD foundation, covering all the bases for a restful, rejuvenating night’s rest. White glove delivery, eco-friendly materials, and an industry-leading lifetime warranty complete this all-around great mattress.

The Saatva HD is on the firmer side of most mattresses, so side sleepers may want to find a more plush bed. The Brooklyn Aurora Luxe is an exceptional alternative for heavyweight side sleepers. It comes in three different firmness options, but side sleepers would get the most contouring and pressure relief out of the plush and medium-firm options. The Brooklyn Aurora is also highly durable and can hold up to 900 lbs, which is about the same as the HD.
