Saatva Pillow Review

Saatva was founded in 2010 based on the founders’ goal of delivering a luxurious sleep experience accessible to everyone. Ten years later, this online-only brand sells a variety of high-quality mattresses, pillows, adjustable bases and much more, on Saatva’s website or Amazon. 

In order to provide some of the best hybrid mattresses and memory foam mattresses, Saatva offers a mattress analysis quiz on its website. Simply answer a few questions about your sleep personality (such as whether you sleep with a partner, what side you sleep on, your weight, body type, etc.), and the quiz will produce an answer that will point you in the right direction. The team behind Saatva understands that no two sleepers are the same, so they know that there is no one-size-fits-all solution. That is why Saatva is constantly trying to improve the sleeping experience with their innovative products.

Whether you’re in search of an innerspring, premium memory foam, hybrid or all-natural latex mattress, Saatva has got you covered. However, Saatva isn’t solely recognized for its mattresses. Its mattress-related products and accessories have also helped people find their best sleep possible. This particular review will focus on the Saatva pillow, a popular addition to the Saatva mattress. 

This plush and weighty pillow will complement your Saatva mattress, but it’s designed to work with any sleep surface, no matter how soft or firm. The Saatva Pillow is dubbed “hotel-quality,” reminding you of an excellent level of comfort that you might’ve experienced once before but were never able to replicate. 

The eco-friendly and supportive design of the Saatva pillow includes shredded American Talalay latex that is drawn from all-natural resources. You can rest peacefully knowing that the Saatva pillow is not made with artificial materials that can harm you or the environment. For more information on eco-friendly bedroom products, see our Best Organic Mattresses article.

The latex composition allows for responsive spine and neck support, which makes this a great pillow for neck pain.  The removable inner pillow lets you adjust the level of support depending on your preferences and needs. 

Other materials found in the pillow include 100% breathable organic cotton and microdenier fiber, which work in conjunction to promote airflow and wick away heat, keeping cool all night long. 

The Saatva Pillow is available in two sizes: Queen Size and King Size, measuring at 28” x 18” and 34” x 18” respectively. This means you can find a pillow that is just the right fit for you and your mattress. Saatva’s pillows are slightly larger than generic pillows, so the company recommends using their own Saatva-specific pillowcases as well. 

What Makes the Saatva Pillow Stand Out

• The Saatva Pillow’s all-natural Talalay latex inner core promotes airflow and delivers responsive spine and neck support for virtually all sleep positions.
• The cover is made of 100% breathable organic cotton that is soft yet supportive, and encourages airflow to keep your head, neck, and upper spine cool and refreshed. 
• The microdenier fiber is plush and silky, which helps enhance the pillow’s overall level of comfort.
• The Talalay latex material is 100% organic and eco-friendly, completely devoid of any synthetic materials that can harm you or the environment.
• Saatva’s 24/7 customer support center means that there is always a helpful representative to answer your questions, comments, and concerns.

What is the Saatva Pillow Made Of?

The Saatva Pillow consists of three primary materials: organic cotton, microdenier fiber and Talalay latex. Each material has beneficial qualities that can improve the sleep experience.

Cotton

The pillow cover/outer layer is made of 100% organic, breathable cotton. The soft cover wicks moisture and heat away from your head and neck to keep you sleeping cool. The gusset sides offer long-lasting shape and structure and the contrast welting delivers an aesthetic, luxurious look.

Microdenier Fiber

Inside the cotton cover you’ll find silky, down-like microdenier fiber. This layer’s breathability encourages air to circulate around the pillow to further keep you cool.

Talalay Latex

Unlike other latex pillows, the inner core of the Saatva pillow is 100% all-natural Talalay latex. This material provides support behind the head and neck, making it an especially great pillow for side sleepers. This material, recommended by chiropractors and orthopedists, is meant to keep your spine aligned so that you won’t wake up with neck or upper spine aches and pains. The Talalay latex is also mildew-proof and dust-mite resistant, and it features much better airflow compared to imported latex. See our article on Best Latex Mattresses to learn more about the material and its benefits.

FAQs

Is the Saatva Pillow hypoallergenic?

The Saatva Pillow is made of microdenier fiber and 100% shredded Talalay latex, which according to Saatva are both completely hypoallergenic. Even if you have an allergy to latex, you don’t have to worry about this pillow because Talalay latex is washed thoroughly with fresh water, which removes a majority of the proteins that may trigger a reaction.

How do you wash the Saatva Pillow?

The Saatva Pillow is easy to clean and machine-washable, but the Talalay latex core should not be washed. To clean the pillow, you’ll want to unzip and remove the outer cover and the microdenier fiber layer, and machine-wash them cold. Remember to wash your pillow at least twice a year, and to replace it after approximately 3 years.

Do Saatva mattresses have an off-gassing process?

The Saatva line of mattresses does not off gas because each mattress is made with low-VOC (volatile organic compounds). Moreover, Saatva does not use harmful chemicals in their manufacturing process. All foams used in the mattresses’ production are eco-friendly, and Saatva replaces up to 40% of petroleum in the mattress material with natural corn and soybean oil.
