Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Dawn offers extra support and a firm feel, it has four layers of construction:

  • Cover: Helix Two Touch Design
  • Comfort Layer: Helix Dynamic Foam (Density: 2.45 PCF)
  • Transition Layer: High-Grade Polyfoam
  • Body Shape Layer: 6" Wrapped Coils
  • Base Layer: DuraDense Foam.

Saatva mattresses are built with a distinctive high quality feature known as 'coil on coil' construction.

  • Organic Cotton Cover & Euro Pillow Top
  • High quality Memory Foam
    Individually wrapped coils, foam encased, creating a Dual Perimeter Edge Support System
  • Tempered steel support lower coil base (the only difference between the 11.5" and 14.5" is the height of these coils, they have an identical coil count, you won't feel any difference).

Comfort Info

The euro pillow top offers more cushioning materials than what is found in most regular pillow tops. These materials are then inserted underneath the outer covering for a neater look.

Support Info

Specially designed using proprietary Helix Dynamic Foam to react to your body shape and aid recovery.
Density of the top and middle layers optimized to give you extra support based on your body type.

Lumbar support enhancement made of high quality memory foam layer, providing additional pressure relief while helping reduce stress and tension from the lower back.

Comfort Specs

Our special latex-foam hybrid alternative, designed to react and contour to your body.

Our top coil unit features a luxurious individually wrapped coil system that contours and responds perfectly to your body, eliminating most motion transfer. Each individually wrapped coil is separate to ensure that the rest of the bed will not be disturbed by the movement of surrounding coils.

Support Specs

High-Grade Polyfoam
Providing ergonomic support and cushioning, the transition layer has a higher IFD to match your body type. Extra support.
Wrapped Coils
Hundreds of individual coils help to cradle your body while also limiting motion transfer.
Edge Support
Each mattress has an individually wrapped spring unit with a reinforced perimeter. This means your mattress will reduce that roll-off feeling and will keep its shape more while sitting on the edge of the bed. Our technology is proven to be substantially better than all foam options.

Individually wrapped coils in the top portion of the mattress are the most advanced coil system in the luxury mattress market. These coils respond and contour to every body shape.
All Saatva's luxury mattresses are built with a tempered steel support lower coil base. This creates a long lasting, sustainable mattress with increased durability and is the best design to prevent sagging.

Fabric Specs

Helix Two Touch Design
Each mattress comes with a top cover layer with stretch and a soft touch as well as a lower cover layer for airflow and breathability. Top cover - 100% soft polyester. Lower cover - Jersey knit fabric with woven fire barrier.
Upgrade to ultra cool knit cover for cooler nights (available at checkout). This Ultra-Cool Cover is designed using phase change material to keep your body cool when you sleep. Simply zip on the Ultra-Cool Cover in place of your standard cover for quick and easy use.

Our Guardin® botanical antimicrobial fabric treatment inhibits bacteria to prolong the life of the organic cotton fabric.
