Construction

Saatva Mattresses9.9

The Saatva Classic

Hybrid inner spring construction

Foam layers

The foam layers are made up of top grade memory foam designed to ease pressure from the back of the user. These layers of foam rest on top of the base of the different pocketed springs. It’s a great stress reliever as well.

Support Layer

The support layer is made up of 14-guage support coils. These coils have undergone series of processes beyond average standards to make them stronger.

Perimeter Edge Support

To ensure this mattress does not sink in with time, it comes with an encasement that has double perimeter edge support.

Foundation

Saatva comes with two premier bases for it’s classic mattress – the adjustable linear base and the foundation + frame. Both provide base support to the mattress adequately.

Saatva HD

This high-defintion mattress from Saatva was constructed with hybrid innerspring.

Foam Layers

What is seen here is an excellent combination of prime memory foam and other support foams for extra ease of pressure.

Support Layer

Supporting the cover of the mattress is a 5-zone talalay latex that provides support for the back and shoulders. The latex is completely natural and adds to the cool effect.

Organic Pillow Top

A pillow top covering adds more layer of cushioning. Made from organic cotton and handcrafted, this material is breathable and kept intact all year round.

Edge Support

The top, sides and bottom of this mattress is wrapped in high density memory foam for maximum edge support.

Loom and Leaf

This mattress was constructed with high quality memory foam.

Foam Layers

The foam layer here is split into two layers. The first is the 3 inch memory foam with a gel-infused layer for added comfort and coolness while the second foam is a 5 pounds per cubic foot (Pcf) in density.

Support Layer

The Loom and Leaf mattress comes with a muilti-layer support structure. It is made up of a 2-inch high-density polyfoam alongside transition layers.

Foundation

Base support for all Saatva mattresses are the same.

Edge Support

This mattress won’t sink in at the edges with the firm  version construction which was built to be sturdy.

Zen-Haven

The Zen-Haven Mattress was constructed with latex and coated with hypoallergenic natural cotton.

Foam Layers

The layers of foam come in 5 density separate zones built on hypoallergenic latex for premium comfort.

Support Layer

Beneath the quilted cover, lies a base layer built on 100%  talalay latex. This base makes room for rigid support and comfortable sleep.

Lasting Cool Base

More support at the base comes for this mattress with a 12.5 gauge tempered steel coils. It’s rigid twice the market standards and comes with a patented spinal support.

The Saatva Latex Hybrid

The Saatva Latex mattress is thoughtfully constructed to combine natural comfort, durability, and support. Its top layer features 100% natural, GOLS-certified organic latex, which is both breathable and responsive, offering gentle contouring without excessive sinkage. Beneath this, a layer of individually wrapped recycled steel coils provides targeted support and minimizes motion transfer while promoting airflow for a cooler sleep experience. An organic cotton cover, certified by GOTS, encases the mattress, adding a soft, breathable surface with a luxurious quilted feel. To enhance durability and edge support, the mattress includes a reinforced perimeter, ensuring consistent comfort across the entire surface. This eco-friendly hybrid design blends natural materials with precision engineering, making it a premium choice for comfort and sustainability.

Cocoon Mattresses9.4

Cocoon is an all-foam mattress (classic and chill). These construction details cover both versions since the sole difference is their covers. However, the mattresses come in two firmness options: medium-soft and extra firm.

There’s a slight difference in the construction of the medium-soft and that of the extra firm. While the medium-soft has a transition layer, the extra-firm version does not. Thus, the medium soft is in 3 layers and the firm feel in 2 layers. Their bases are also different, but that will be covered in the details.

Construction Details

Premium-grade Fabric Cover (Classic)

The cover here is made from 100% polyester. This gives it a soft feel and it’s quite breathable for the smooth passage of air if you love to sleep cool. This cover is durable and is a stretch-knit fabric cover.

Phase Change Cover (Chill)

The Chill mattress took a notch upwards for extra coolness with the infusion of a phase change material in its stretch-knit cover. This technology regulates the ambient temperature to keep you cool just when you need it. It’s also cool to the touch and stays fresh for you.

Comfort Layer

Both versions used premium memory foam in their comfort layers. The memory foam used is 2 inches tall. While you get immersed into both mattresses, this memory foam engulfs your whole body, adapts to its shape and size to give you a comfortable sleep all night.

Transition Layer

This layer is present only in the medium-soft option. It’s 2 inches of polyfoam that serves to convey the sleeper from the soft memory foam layer upwards down to the thick support base beneath. This transition allows the mattress to contour the body properly for pressure relief.

Support Core

The Baselayer or core of both mattresses is designed to be sturdy. This is to ensure it serves its purpose of durability and structural stability.

For the extra firm feel option, the base layer is 8 inches of high-density polyfoam which keeps the mattress in shape, and since it’s just beneath the memory foam, it creates the required firmness to support heavyweight sleepers.

 

The medium-soft option, however, sacrificed 2 inches of its base layer to form a transition layer just above it, making the support base 6 inches of high-density polyfoam. The transition layer limits direct interaction between the comfort layer and the sturdy base keeping things super soft.

 

Durability

Additionally, the mattress’s zoned support system prevents premature sagging, offering consistent performance for years, even under regular use.

Cocoon Mattresses9.6

The sturdy support cores/bases of both mattresses create not just a foundation and shape for the mattresses, but makes them resilient and sheer durable.

Cooling and Comfort

• The plush soft is recommended for side sleepers.
• Luxury firm which is the most preferred is great for all sleeping positions and
• Firm for those who love to sleep on their back or stomach.

Saatva HD

This mattress was specially designed for people who are bigger in sizes (300-500 pounds). It comes with just one sleeping type – the medium firm comfort level. This is ideal for any sleeper.

Loom and Leaf

In terms of sleeping options, you are offered two based on firmess. The first which is the relaxed firm option is suitable for all sleeping positions and a top choice for many.

The second is the firm option and is reserved for stomach sleepers with a floating-like experience.

Zen-Haven

The signature style of Saatva premium comfort offerings is in play here. Two options are yours for choice sake. There’s the; luxury plush and gentle firm.

The luxury plush is loved and bought by many since it can accommodate the needs of various sleepers and their favorite positions.

The gentle firm is more rigid than the luxury plush. Ideal for those who sleep on their stomach or backs. Despite it’s firmness, it still relieves your body of pressure while on it.

To get any of the sleeping positions,  just flip the mattress over.

The Saatva Latex Hybrid

The mattress is designed to accommodate a variety of sleeping styles, making it a versatile choice for many sleepers. Its medium-firm feel, combined with zoned lumbar support, provides excellent spinal alignment and comfort for back sleepers and stomach sleepers who need a stable and supportive surface. The natural latex layer offers gentle contouring without excessive sinkage, making it suitable for combination sleepers who frequently change positions during the night. Side sleepers may find the mattress slightly firm but still supportive enough to prevent pressure buildup at the hips and shoulders. Overall, the Saatva Latex Hybrid mattress caters to a broad range of sleep preferences, with a slight emphasis on back and stomach sleepers.

Cocoon Mattresses9.5

The cocoon mattress comes in two firmness options: the medium soft (5-6) and the extra firm (8-9).

The medium soft option is best for side sleepers. The softness will allow for medium sinkage and the contouring of their curves for full side support. The medium soft option makes the side sleepers have that in-the-bed feeling as the transition layer allows them to sink in deep for pressure relief.

The extra firm is great for the exclusive back and stomach sleepers. It creates the on-the-bed feeling rather than in-the-bed which is seen in the medium soft version. The firmness is great for stomach sleepers as it limits the deep sinkage of their hips which can be downright discomforting. The firmness also keeps the spine aligned for the comfort of back sleepers.

Dimensions

Conclusion

The cocoon mattress is from one of the world’s oldest mattress brands – Sealy, founded in 1881. They have two mattress options: the Chill and Classic.

Saatva is a leading mattress brand with four mattresses in its collection featuring a blend of hybrid and all-foam mattresses.

Saatva and Cocoon deployed premium grade memory foams in their comfort layers that are soft and breathable to afford each sleeper of cool comfort.

But in terms of support, Saatva beats Cocoon with its steel tempered coils on coils system that offers better pressure relief, spinal alignment and back pain alleviation. These coils are so responsive that they also promote airflow and keeps the mattresses cool.

And while Cocoon uses a memory foam for contouring and support, Saatva does better with a Lumbar support enhancement layer made of memory foam.

Saatva also offers 3 firmness options while  Cocoon offers 2.
