Conclusion

Sattva is a luxury mattress company offering the best of both worlds (hybrid and all-foam) when it’s comes to mattresses. They offer four mattress options in three firmness levels giving sleepers a small array of choices to make.

By contrast, Nectar is made in China and offers just a single style of mattress construction: all-foam mattress, at the expense of the luxury, hybrids have to offer. They also have just one firmness option which is a one-size-fits-all approach. Most sleepers would prefer a mattress more tailored to meet their specific needs, rather than having one that promises everything.

Although the trial and warranty for Nectar are quite tempting at 365 and lifetime respectively, needs and luxury come foremost when choosing the right sleep companion. Not to mention the simplistic pricing of Sattva mattress which is also a plus.

On the basis of the paramount needs of sleepers and with four options available to find a suitable mattress, Sattva has an appreciable advantage over Nectar.

Saatva is the winner as it handcrafted with premium materials, including antimicrobial organic cotton, CertiPUR-US certified foams, and eco-friendly components. It is engineered for pain-free sleep, with dedicated lumbar zone support to promote healthy spinal alignment. Saatva includes the top five features found in luxury retail mattresses and combined them to make one perfect mattress (Luxury euro pillow top, Perimeter edge support, individually wrapped coils, spinal zone technology and Durable steel coil support) .  Saatva is a top luxury retail mattress with a price tag of a bed in a box.
