Mattress Construction

Materials Overview

The Helix Plus is designed for Plus Size and Big & Tall and offers maximum support with a medium feel, it has five layers of construction:

  • Tencel Cover
  • 1.5" Helix Dynamic Foam

Introducing the Saatva HD, the first luxury hybrid innerspring mattress specifically engineered to support those who weigh between 300 and 500 pounds.

  • Organic Cotton Pillow Top
  • 2.5" Firm Talalay Latex
  • Contouring Comfort Layers (including 5lb Memory Foam)

Comfort Info

Ultra breathable cover and hybrid design increase airflow to keep the mattress cooler. No more sweaty nights.

All elements in the Saatva HD have been carefully considered to increase airflow throughout the mattress resulting in better temperature regulation.

Support Info

The new Helix Plus has higher density foams to match heavier sleepers and provide increased durability. The coil unit has best in-class edge support, so plus size sleepers never feel like they're falling off the mattress. An extra layer of high density, 4 pound foam is included in one of the three foam layers to help provide maximum support for people with high BMIs.

High-density foam rails (1.8lb density) encase the top, bottom, and sides of the mattress. This firmer, more supportive edge makes it easier to get in and out of bed. All elements in the Saatva HD have been carefully considered to increase airflow throughout the mattress resulting in better temperature regulation.

Hundreds of individual taller coils designed to cradle and support heavier weight. Reinforced perimeter to provide edge support.
The bottom foam layer of the mattress provides base support and durability to the entire mattress.

Tempered 12.5-gauge steel coils (25% stronger than the industry standard), threaded with 17-gauge helical wire to eliminate motion transfer. Patented Spinal Zone active wire adds lumbar support in the center third of the mattress.
5-zone Talalay latex feels buoyant and responsive. Resists body impressions and provides targeted support for your back and under your shoulders and hips.
A unique combination of memory foam and support foams contour and cushion for added pressure relief on your joints.

Fabric Specs
