Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Firmness and Feel
Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Firmness
Unlike other Saatva mattresses, the Memory Foam Hybrid has only one firmness option—medium-firm. We gave it a 6/10 rating on the 1–10 firmness scale, which is slightly firmer than average.
Normally, this firmness works best for back and stomach sleepers under 230 lbs and average-to-heavyweight side sleepers, and our lab testing confirmed that the Memory Foam Hybrid aligns with this trend.
What Does the Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Feel Like?
The Saatva Hybrid mattress initially feels soft and cushioning, but when you press harder into the layers, you bump up against the firmer support foam. We stayed elevated on top of the mattress but appreciated how the comfort layer cushioned our bodies, especially while on our backs. Overall, this mattress feels cushioning and supportive, but not contouring as we expected.
What Sleeping Position Is Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Best For?
| Body Type: | Back Sleepers | Stomach Sleepers | Side Sleepers |
| Lightweight< 130 lbs: | 5 | 5 | 2 |
| Average-weight130–230 lbs: | 5 | 4 | 4 |
| Heavyweight> 230 lbs: | 4 | 3 | 5 |
1 = Very poor 2 = Not good 3 = Fair 4 = Good 5 = Excellent
Back Sleepers
The Memory Foam Hybrid is a great mattress for back sleepers. These folks need a mattress that keeps the natural “S” curve of their spines maintained, and the Saatva does just that for lightweight and average-weight sleepers. Heavyweight back sleepers are more prone to their hips sinking down a bit more.
Side Sleepers
Despite the mattress supporting great spinal alignment and feeling initially soft, lightweight side sleepers’ curves don’t sink very deep into the mattress. We noticed a concentration of pressure around the shoulders and hips. Overall, the Saatva isn’t the best mattress for side sleepers that can’t sink down enough into the comfort layers, unless you prefer a firm mattress.
The good news is that average-weight and heavyweight side sleepers saw great pressure relief when we tested this bed.
Stomach Sleepers
The firmness level and support of the Saatva Modern Foam work really well for lightweight and average-weight stomach sleepers. Heavyweight folks should look for a firmer bed that keeps their hips elevated in line with their shoulders. For better options, check out the best mattresses for stomach sleepers and the best mattresses for heavy people.
Combination Sleepers
The Saatva Hybrid mattress is a very responsive mattress for combination sleepers, especially for lightweight and average-weight back/stomach sleepers. Heavyweight combination sleepers may feel more stuck than other weight categories and will want a firmer, more buoyant mattress.
Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Performance
Is the Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Cooling?
As a hybrid mattress, the Memory Foam Hybrid sleeps cool: it’s a combination of the gel-infused foam, breathable cover, and a coil layer that adds airflow. Hot sleepers should also consider one of the best cooling mattresses.
Edge Support
Saatva has a reputation for making mattresses with great edge support and the Memory Foam Hybrid is no different. It has reinforced edges with dense foam to keep you supported around the perimeter of the bed. We recommend it to those who prioritize edge support.
Responsiveness
Saatva is one of the most responsive foam mattresses we’ve tested, meaning it rapidly adjusts to changes in your position on the mattress. During testing, it was really easy for us to move around on the surface of the mattress, and we never felt stuck in one place.
Motion Isolation: Is it good for those who share a bed?
During our motion transfer tests, we noticed quite a bit of movement, which tells us that the Memory Foam Hybrid is not the best mattress for couples who are concerned about motion disruptions.
Noise
This mattress was silent during testing, so we consider it to be a quiet mattress.
Pain Relief
While no mattress is likely to completely cure aches and pains, the right mattress can certainly help with pain relief. The Saatva does a great job of keeping all sleeper’s spines aligned (i.e. good sleeping posture) in all positions, and it incorporates extra lower back support.
These qualities make it a good mattress for back pain, particularly for back or stomach sleepers. While lightweight side sleepers should experience excellent spinal alignment, they don’t get much pressure point relief, so it’s not the best match for side sleepers with joint pain.
Sex
The Saatva is a pretty responsive mattress, and it’s also very quiet and cooling—both good qualities for sex.

Off-Gassing
We noticed a very slight odor when we removed the plastic from our Saatva mattress, but it didn’t bother us and went away after a day. Saatva mattresses have a CertiPUR-US certification, meaning they’re made without harmful chemicals and are produced with low emissions.
Durability
As a made-to-order, high-end hybrid mattress, we expect the Saatva to last at least eight years. The mattress will likely last even longer thanks to those reinforced edges.
Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Construction: What’s it made of?
The Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid is a five-layer, hybrid mattress made with memory foam and coils. With an 11.5” depth and medium-firmness, it’s best for average sleepers who want support and need the bounce of coils.
Layer #1—Organic Cotton Cover: The Memory Foam cover is quilted with comfort foam. It’s breathable, hypoallergenic, and antimicrobial thanks to a botanical treatment called Guardin. The cover is layered with a natural thistle flame retardant.
Layer #2—Gel Memory Foam: A thin layer of gel-infused memory foam under the lumbar region of the mattress improves lower back support and spinal alignment. It also provides a cooling sensation.
Layer #3—Breathable Memory Foam Layer: This foam layer is egg-crate shaped. In other words, this foam layer is molded with waves to improve airflow. It’s also soft and cushioning.
Layer #4—Support Coil Layer: The base of the mattress is a system of pocketed coils. It adds bounce, breathability, and durability to your bed.
Layer #5—Reinforced Edges: There is very dense foam surrounding the coils to provide extra edge support to the Saatva.
How Much Does the Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Cost?
| Mattress Size | Price | Dimensions | Height | Weight |

How Do the Policies Measure Up?
Shipping & Unboxing
Saatva is not your typical bed-in–a-box online mattress company—they include free white glove delivery and old mattress removal with each mattress purchase, meaning you won’t need to do any heavy lifting when your mattress is delivered.
Saatva mattresses aren’t rolled or compressed when shipped, so you’re unlikely to notice an off-gassing odor when your mattress is removed from the packaging.
Warranty
The Saatva’s Lifetime warranty its way years longer than the 10-year industry average. It covers defects in workmanship and materials, though Saatva doesn’t specify what those are.
If you and Saatva have a dispute about whether or not your mattress is defective, you can choose the Fairness Replacement Option—where you get to keep the original mattress and buy a new one for a percentage of the original price. Otherwise, Saatva will replace your mattress for free during the first two years and repair and recover it for $99 shipping both ways during the remaining years of the warranty.
Make sure you use a supportive enough bed frame, box spring, or adjustable base or you could void your warranty.
Trial Period & Returns
Saatva includes a 365-night trial period with all of their mattresses. This gives you a full year to adjust to the feel of the bed before making a final decision. During this time, you can return the mattress for a $99 transportation fee. Saatva will arrange for the mattress to be picked up and donated, and you’ll receive a full refund.
Saatva’s return policy and trial period are both better and worse than other online mattress companies. Saatva’s trial period is way nights longer than the 100-night industry standard, but most companies offer free returns.
Addressing Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Complaints
Doesn’t Feel Like Memory Foam
Customers shopping for a memory foam mattress—or, in this case, a memory foam hybrid—usually expect a certain feel: contouring, dense, with a slow response and characteristic “hug” from the foam.
But, it doesn’t have a traditional memory foam feel, so it’s better for those expecting a balanced foam feel rather than that of traditional memory foam. If you’re not a fan of the Saatva mattress, remember that you can return it during the 365-night trial period.
Too Firm
Saatva considers the Memory Foam Hybrid to be a medium-firm mattress, and we agree; however, they recommend it to side sleepers, but we think it’s a bit too firm for some side sleepers. If you purchase the Saatva Modern Foam mattress, and it’s too firm for your comfort, you can return it during the sleep trial. Alternatively, you can request a mattress topper to soften the feel of the mattress.
Comparing Different Saatva Mattresses
Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Saatva Classic Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Saatva Classic Mattress Is Best For… |
| Side sleepers | Stomach sleepers |
| Hot sleepers | Back pain |
| Value shoppers | Luxury shoppers |
The Saatva Classic mattress is Saatva’s namesake bed. It’s a traditional innerspring mattress that’s made with two layers of coils and a soft euro pillow top. Unlike the Modern Foam, the Classic is offered in three firmness levels, so you can choose from Plush Soft, Luxury Firm, and Firm.
Both beds work well for back and stomach sleepers, though the Classic is better for people with back pain and those who sleep on their stomachs. It’s also backed by a Lifetime warranty.

Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Loom & Leaf Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Loom & Leaf Mattress Is Best For… |
| Stomach sleepers | Back sleepers |
| Combination sleepers | Memory foam lovers |
| Value shoppers | Couples |
The Loom & Leaf is a memory foam mattress from Saatva. It has a similar construction to the Memory Foam Hybrid, though the Loom & Leaf has more memory foam, so it has more of the contouring hug typically associated with memory foam beds.
The Memory Foam Hybrid is a more budget-friendly option, but with the Loom & Leaf, you get more cooling features and two firmness options, as opposed to one. Both mattresses are best for back and stomach sleepers.

Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Zenhaven Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Zenhaven Mattress Is Best For… |
| Combo sleepers | Eco-friendly shoppers |
| Side sleepers | Stomach sleepers |
| Value shoppers | Back pain |
The Zenhaven is made primarily of eco-friendly Talalay latex, making it better for eco-friendly shoppers than the Memory Foam Hybrid. It’s also more versatile—it has a softer side and a firmer side, so you can choose which feel better aligns with your comfort preferences.
The Memory Foam Hybrid is lower cost, so it’s a better option for shoppers on a budget, but for those willing to pay a higher price, the Zenhaven is almost fully organic, flippable, and supportive.

Comparing Saatva to the Competition
Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Casper Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Casper Mattress Is Best For… |
| Hot sleepers | Back pain |
| Side sleepers | Back sleepers |
| Combo sleepers | Couples |
The original Casper mattress is a memory foam mattress. The Casper is a little softer than the Saatva, so it’s a better fit for lighter side sleepers, while the Saatva is better for stomach sleepers.
Saatva is better if you want to feel more supported, and the Casper is better for those who want more cushion. Casper is also the more affordable mattress, though it has a shorter trial period and warranty (100-night trial period and 10-year warranty).

Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Nectar Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Nectar Mattress Is Best For… |
| Stomach sleepers | Side sleepers |
| Heavy people | Couples |
| Combo sleepers | Memory foam lovers |
The Nectar mattress is a more traditional memory foam mattress, with two top layers of memory foam. You’ll sink deeper into the Nectar mattress and rest more on top of the Saatva. We recommend the Nectar to side sleepers and those looking for cushion around their pressure points. The Saatva is a bit firmer, so it’s better for stomach sleepers. The Nectar is the lower cost bed.

Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress vs. Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress
| Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress Is Best For… | Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress Is Best For… |
| Stomach sleepers | Hot sleepers |
| Combo sleepers | Side sleepers |
| Budget shoppers | Couples |
The Helix Midnight Luxe is a hybrid mattress as well. The Saatva will feel cushioning and buoyant (i.e. it keeps you lifted on top of the mattress), and the Midnight Luxe will be more cushioning.
The Midnight Luxe is better for hot sleepers, side sleepers, and couples. The Memory Foam Hybrid is better for stomach sleepers, shoppers on a budget, and those who want a longer trial period (365 days for Saatva vs. 100 days for Helix).

Saatva Modern Foam Mattress FAQs
Can I try out Saatva mattresses before I buy one?
Saatva gives their customers a 180-night home trial when they buy a new mattress, so they can try out the bed before making a final decision. Otherwise, the only way to try all the different mattresses from Saatva is their viewing room in New York City.
Are Saatva mattresses worth the cost?
As a mattress brand, Saatva is committed to value for its customers. They use high-quality materials, offer free white glove delivery, and keep their price tags relatively low for a luxury online mattress brand. For example, a Queen size Saatva Modern Foam mattress is only $1,495, while competitors cost $2,000+.
Where are Saatva mattresses made?
Saatva mattresses are made to order in the USA. Most of the materials are also sourced in the U.S. Saatva has 19 factories and 145 shipping centers throughout the country, so there's a good chance your mattress won't travel more than 100 miles from the shipping center to your doorstep.
The Nerd’s Take: What’s the Bottom Line?
The Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid mattress will deliver good support for back sleepers, side sleepers over 130 lbs, and stomach sleepers under 230 lbs. It doesn’t have a traditional memory foam feel, so we hesitate to recommend it to those who want the characteristic hug or deeply contouring feel of memory foam. Overall, we think there are better Saatva mattresses to choose from for the cost.
