Every Saatva mattress is crafted when you order it. We assemble all our mattresses in America with care and pride, using only the highest quality, globally sourced materials. We could have settled on cheaper materials and produced our mattresses elsewhere for higher profits, but we've never wavered in our commitment to quality. We believe it's the right thing to do for our customers, our American workers, and our economy.
Every Saatva Youth mattress features:
• Cover made with organic cotton
• Guardin™ botanical antimicrobial treatment

Sit back and relax while we do all the work. Our free white glove delivery includes in-room delivery and set up. We'll even take away your old mattress at no additional cost to you. Just select free mattress removal at checkout.
At Saatva, we never pressure you to make up your mind quickly. All of our mattresses come with a 365-night home trial, so you have plenty of time to decide whether it’s right for you. If at any point during your home trial you’re not satisfied, just give us a call and we’ll come pick up the mattress and refund your money, less a $99 processing fee to cover our cost of gas and labor for the pickup. That’s it.
Yes, it can be placed on a bunk or loft bed, as long as the upper edge of the guardrail is at least five inches above the mattress for maximum safety. Keep in mind that because the Saatva Youth mattress is made with multilayer support, it's thicker than a standard bunk bed mattresses.
If you need a standard bunk bed mattress, we suggest our Bunk & Trundle Mattress
Because their growing bodies need proper support to stay in a natural body position, look for a medium-firm mattress for your toddlers to start.
Besides looking for the proper amount of firmness, child-proof features like a water-resistant barrier to protect from spills and accidents is a good idea. Opt for a youth mattress that's made with high-quality organic and natural materials. Look for foams that are certified to be free of chemicals and have low VOCs (volatile organic compounds) to limit your child's exposure to potentially harmful chemicals and gasses.
Whether you're setting your youth mattress on a foundation or a platform bed frame, the important thing to keep in mind is the total height of the bed (mattress + bed frame) to make sure your child is able to get in and out of bed safely.
If you plan to place your youth mattress on a bunk bed, make sure the upper edge of the guardrail is at least five inches above the mattress for maximum safety.
Saatva Youth Mattress is available in standard twin, twin XL, and full sizes. See our Specifications section for exact size dimensions.
Youth mattresses are also known as junior mattresses. They're specifically designed for the needs of growing children and typically come in a kids' twin mattress size.
No. We never use fiberglass or toxic chemical flame retardants/barriers in any of our mattresses. Instead, we use either plant-based flame barriers, a Paladin flame barrier made with a blend of poly & rayon fibers, or organic New Zealand wool in our mattresses to meet federal safety standards.
Our Zenhaven, Latex Hybrid, Saatva HD, and Solaire mattresses do not need to be rotated from head to foot. This is due to the 5-zone alignment of the latex layer in those mattresses.
Our other mattresses can be rotated. We recommend rotating the mattress after six months and then once a year after that. This will ensure that the surface of the mattress breaks in evenly.
No. We never use fiberglass or toxic chemical flame retardants/barriers in any of our mattresses. Instead, we use either plant-based flame barriers, a Paladin flame barrier made with a blend of poly & rayon fibers, or organic New Zealand wool in our mattresses to meet federal safety standards.
The following Saatva mattresses use a natural, plant-based thistle flame retardant made of wood pulp bonded with a small amount of polyester:
• Saatva Classic
• Saatva HD
• Saatva Youth
• Memory Foam Hybrid (also contains natural wool as a flame retardant)
The following Saatva mattresses use 100% GOTS certified organic New Zealand wool as a natural flame retardant:
• Zenhaven Latex
• Saatva Latex Hybrid
• Crib Mattress
Solaire adjustable firmness mattress uses Paladin, which is composed of flame retardant rayon fibers blended with polyester fibers.
Contour5 memory foam mattress is covered on all six sides with a GREENGUARD®* Gold Certified natural flame barrier made of nontoxic cellulose fibers derived from tree byproducts.
Bunk & Trundle mattress uses a nontoxic natural thistle & wool blend flame barrier.
We do not use any harmful chemicals or sprays in any of our mattresses.
As part of regular maintenance, vacuum your mattress at least twice a year to get rid of dust, crumbs, and other icky things that might be living in there. You can also deodorize your mattress by generously sprinkling it with baking soda. Leave it on for a full day and then vacuum it up to refresh your mattress.
Tip: Adding a mattress pad over your mattress gives it an added layer of protection from stains, moisture, and debris. Just make sure to wash your mattress pad regularly.

No. Bed in a box (BIAB) mattresses are compressed, shrink-wrapped, folded, then rolled into a cardboard box for shipping. While this allows BIAB companies to save on freight costs, it takes a severe toll on the integrity of the foam mattress by breaking down the cell structure of the foams. It can also result in uneven firmness and sinking support in some areas, reducing the overall lifespan of the mattress.
We believe your bed deserves better than being stuffed in a box. That’s why all Saatva mattresses come with FREE white glove delivery and in-home set up. We even take away your old mattress for free!

• You purchased your box spring or foundation within the last seven years
• Your existing box spring or foundation is in good condition and provides sturdy center support
NOTE: Saatva HD requires pairing with the HD Foundation for adequate support.
Saatva mattresses also work with platform beds, without the need for a foundation or box spring. Please make sure your existing platform bed has the following:
• A solid, durable surface. If your platform has a slatted support system, make sure the slats are spaced less than 4" apart. If they're not, you can add a 1/2" thick piece of plywood or a bunkie board over the slats for optimal support. This extra layer of support is needed because Saatva mattresses are heavier due to their premium quality materials
• A proper center support. This means you must have a center leg in the middle of your platform bed frame
NOTE: When used with our dual-sided Zenhaven mattress, you must add a solid surface over platform slats such as plywood, masonite board, or bunkie board.
If you have any questions, you can reach one of our sleep guides 24/7 at 1-877-672-2882.
Saatva mattresses are compatible with any bed frame, including our Saatva bed frames.
Our dual-sided Zenhaven latex mattresses cannot be placed directly on a platform bed frame with slats. You must cover the slats with a solid material, such as plywood or a bunkie board.
Non-platform (standard) bed frames require a foundation and can be paired with any mattress. Note that we strongly suggest pairing the Saatva HD with the HD foundation, which is specifically designed to give it optimal support.
Foams in the bedding or upholstered furniture that are CertiPUR-US® certified have been tested to meet their rigorous standards for emissions, content and durability. Specifically, the foam is:
- Made without formaldehyde
- Made without ozone depleters
- Made without phthalates regulated by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
- Made without mercury, lead and other heavy metals
- Low VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions for indoor air quality (less than 0.5 parts per million)
- Screened for relevant chemicals, including flame retardants, that are classified as carcinogens, mutagens or reproductive toxins and are harmful to human health

Our exclusive antimicrobial treatment by Guardin™ is made with a proprietary blend of essential oils and minerals. This blend includes thyme, geranium, lemongrass, and mint, but is completely odorless and colorless.
Added to Saatva’s mattress ticking during the manufacturing process and engineered to last the life of the mattress, Guardin™ inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, mildew, and the discoloration that they can cause on the surface of a mattress.
Unlike other mattress brands that use antimicrobial treatments made from heavy metals, Guardin™ antimicrobial treatment is biodegradable and does not contain any fluorocarbons, toxic heavy metals, silver nanotechnology, triclosan, formaldehyde or phthalates.
The Extend™ protection plan provides peace of mind and financial protection for your mattress investment from accidental damage.
This plan covers accidental stains and damage NOT covered by the Saatva mattress warranty, such as rips, tears and stains. This plan does not cover theft or damage caused by abuse or misuse.
Plans are effective from the day your mattress is delivered.

We never resell returned mattresses. Instead, we donate them to veterans' shelters or offer them at cost to employees and associates across our network of more than 150 delivery partners.
Every Saatva mattress is made to order, which means they don't sit in storage.
Occasionally, we can shorten the delivery time when we have a change or cancellation from another order of the exact same product. This allows us to redirect that freshly made and sealed mattress to you. We’d love to help in any way if you need your mattress faster. Our friendly sleep guides are here for you 24/7 at 1-877-672-2882.
All of our mattresses are made to order and arrive to you factory fresh. That means the high-quality materials inside them need a little bit of time to soften up. You should notice your new mattress begin to conform to your body after a few days. You may even notice continuing improvement for up to a month.
Remember that your body will need some time to adjust to a brand new mattress. If you've been sleeping on an old mattress, your body likely got used to it, even if it didn't provide you with adequate support. That's why we give you a generous 365-night home trial to give you time to acclimate to your new mattress.
If after a month or so, you still feel that your mattress is too firm (or too soft), give us a call at 1-877-672-2882 and one of our friendly sleep guides will be happy to help you.

No. It’s part of our pledge to be honest and transparent about what you’re buying. Saatva is committed to giving you honest guidance, even if it means directing you to another mattress brand that’s a better fit for you. In a regular mattress store environment, a commissioned employee makes more money when they sell you a particular brand, so you may get pressured into a choice that’s not right for you. That’s just not the Saatva way.
Mattresses crafted in the U.S.A. must meet strict health, safety, and environmental standards. The U.S. and the E.U. have the toughest regulations, but other countries may not offer the same protections.
Knowing where your mattress is crafted makes it easier to ensure that the manufacturer adheres to guidelines that protect workers from danger and exploitation, such as labor regulations and minimum-wage laws. Reputable mattress manufacturers (like our network of 14 domestic factories) also work to minimize environmental impact by incorporating low-carbon-footprint processes and recycled materials into their products.
Laws in California, Connecticut, and Rhode Island require us to collect a small fee at checkout for every mattress, foundation, and adjustable base sold.
The fees are used to fund recycling efforts in these states, as part of a program called Bye Bye Mattress. This program is operated by the Mattress Recycling Council, a nonprofit organization started by the mattress industry. The fees go toward the collection and processing of discarded mattresses and foundations.
Per state laws, we have to collect the fee even if you don't plan on getting rid of your old mattress right now. Mattresses don't last forever—eventually, you'll have to discard your old one, and the fees will help cover the recycling costs when the time comes.
About 20 million mattresses end up in U.S. landfills every year—that's about 55,000 per day—and that can take a toll on the environment. Since 2015, Bye Bye Mattress has helped reduce the number of mattresses that end up in landfills by recycling six million mattresses.
Recycling a mattress has many benefits: It conserves resources, with recyclable materials such as foam padding, steel springs, and wooden frames being used to make new products; it creates recycling jobs; it reduces the number of illegally dumped mattresses; and it results in less reliance on landfills.

Made to order, never stuffed in a box
Every Saatva mattress is handcrafted and assembled when you order it. Unlike other internet mattresses, we'd never dream of compressing our premium beds into a small box. Doing so can reduce its lifespan and compromise your comfort.
