Was great for about 5 years...until the body impressions

Bought this in 2017 when the company was still out of Westport, CT and had not been bought out yet. So maybe that's a good thing? Loved this mattress for the first five years. This last year, the canoes have deepened and my wife and I wake up with back pain now and/or can't get comfortable. Of course you can't flip it. When I called Saatva about the warranty, they said, "Sure, we can fix it for you." But they have to come get the mattress and it takes 2 weeks to fix. We have no other bed to sleep on. How stupid.

Way too hard, no give for shoulders

Should have gone with the Plush, however, when given the choice to exchange it, I was told the Plush is only 20% softer than the luxury firm. I would love is Saatva made an ultra Plush because I feel that marketing their Plush mattress as soft is misleading, per the many reviews. Unfortunately, not a big Saatva mattress lover. I had such high hopes that this was the one for me. Alas, back to the drawing board and overload of mattress info. Ugh!

Not as good as all the hype. Just OK. Not worth the price.

I purchased a King Size Luxury Firm Saatva about almost three ago. I was also sucked in by the "wonderful" reviews posted on different sites on the web. They build the impression that this is a top mattress selling at a low price because they sell directly to you. They compare this mattress favorably with Tempur-pedic, Sleep Number etc. But this is all marketing, and they appear to be good at it. Some of the reviews on the sites appear very convincing. They will list some "cons" like "not 100% organic", which some of us will brush off as a minor issue, but it gets us to believe the review is honest. Many of these sites will not mention that they are compensated by Saatva by clicks or in some other way. So ... after almost 3 years, I am not very impressed with this mattress. It appears well constructed and seems to be of a decent quality. But it is by no means wonderful. My sleep has not improved at all. To me it sleeps about as well as our prior mattress. My wife actually feels that our prior mattress sleeps better than this one. And the Saatva cost more than twice as much as the previous mattress. My experience has not been horrible. But if you are looking for a bargain super sleeper, this is not it. You can get an average mattress for the same experience at half the price. Or you can spend the same amount or more for a better experience elsewhere.

The Right Choice

I've had my Saatva Queen Luxury Firm for almost three months now, and I'm wishing I hadn't waited so long to buy it. I'd known almost since I paid well over $2000 for the last bed that it was a mistake--daily backaches and headaches were a constant reminder. I knew then that choosing a mattress by lying on it wasn't a dependable way to choose one, and that I'd have to do it by learning every detail about all mattresses, and about what makes a good mattress. So I spent months in research. I kept coming back to the Saatva as the best choice, but I read so many different opinions on just how firm the Luxury Firm was that it took me awhile to decide to take a chance. The purchase went exactly as the website said it would. There were no delays or hitches anywhere. The delivery men were professional, courteous, helpful, and fast. There was no off-gassing at all, and only a mild, fresh, new-bed odor. The advice to change our pillows at the same time was very prudent, and without it, I'd have blamed the bed for something that was simple to change. The Luxury Firm is exactly firm enough. After our overly-plush old bed, the Saatva at first felt too firm, but after about a week, we adjusted and it was just right. I was concerned about settling; that hasn't happened. I was concerned about edge support; it is still doing its job. We love our bed! ---

Returned After 2 Days

The first thing I noticed was no edge support - I slid right off the side of the bed like I was sitting on a slide. Not to jump to conclusions, we decided to sleep on it and give it a chance. I noticed a strong chemical smell that grew worse over time. In fact, the entire house smelled like a hospital room by the next day. I sleep under a mountain of covers since I like to be toasty at night. I woke up during the night covered in sweat with the same amount of covers that worked great on my old mattress. My husband hated it for this fact alone - it doesn't breathe at all and he was overly hot throughout the night and could only sleep with a sheet. Returning this one to buy another mattress today! Also, when I called to return, the customer service rep offered to replace at no charge since the the chemical smell is a "manufacturer's defect" and yet they are still charging my $99 to return. I don't know how on earth this is the best reviewed mattress on google for 2015 - unless they pay them the most to say that!

Finally the perfect mattress

As most of the people here have stated, I was also skeptical ordering a mattress online. I'm a researcher when it comes to buying anything. I read and read and read before I buy a product and go to stores and do a lot of looking. I'm a self-professed Frugal Fanny also and try to find the best deal on the best product when I buy anything. All of the above being said, I decided on the Saatva because of everything I read about it. Not only on the Saatva website but on other websites and You Tube mattress reviewers as well. I am in love with my Luxury Firm mattress. I like a firm mattress and my husband likes one that's not so firm. This one is perfect for both of us. We were using an organic latex mattress with a luxury pillowtop and it slept too hot for me. I would wake up soaked in sweat. My husband would complain of being hot also when he was home. He travels a lot and said he didn't have that problem at hotels. The mattress also had indentions where I slept even though I turned it often. I felt like I was sleeping in a hole. I'm a stomach and back sleeper and my husband is a side sleeper. The latex mattress cost us around $5,000 and all I could think of was I needed to get rid of it. It was 8 years old, but had a 20-year warranty. Good Riddance! I'm so, so happy I found Saatva. I slept better from the first night. It's heaven to me. I have had a hard time sleeping for years and now I'm so absolutely comfortable. I also have Fibromyalgia and I have no aches, pains or stiffness from this mattress. I have only had my Luxury Firm mattress about a month and would fight someone if they tried to take it back. This was a great decision for my husband and I and if you are skeptical don't be. It's Heaven!

I am lovin' my mattress!

I had been waking up with a stiff back and attributed it to exercise and/or old age. Then I travelled abroad for two weeks and slept fabulously. Ah! My MATTRESS is the problem! The SAATVA ad was in my Sunday NYTimes Magazine and I placed the order. I had a delivery issue but the General Manager jumped on it personally, immediately and the issue was solved. I am in love with my mattress! Sweet dreams, everyone.
