Quality you cannot stuff in a box
Every handcrafted Saatva mattress is made to order, never compressed and stuffed into a small shipping box. Instead, we deliver it factory-fresh to your room for free.

Why a bed in a box falls short of quality comfort


Can a bed in a box offer the same long-lasting comfort, quality, and value as a Saatva?
Our years of experience tells us no. We believe that any mattress that can be compressed, rolled, and stuffed into a small box simply can’t compare to the quality and durability of a premium mattress delivered intact. Don’t believe us? Just take a look at what a bed in a box goes through in a compression machine before you’ve even had a chance to sleep on it.

Before considering a bed in a box, here are some things you should know about what compressing, folding and rolling can do to the inside of your mattress.

It can break down the foam Some brands use less dense foams to be able to compress their beds. Some of the foam’s cells can break when compressed, reducing its overall lifespan. It can destroy the coils Some brands use thinner coils to be able to compress. When folded and rolled, the center row can be destroyed or compromised, reducing the mattress lifespan even more. It can compromise back support The center third of a mattress is where most of your body weight lies. Folding a mattress can compromise that crucial area, which can lead to aches and pains. It can reduce the lifespan of the mattress This can mean having to replace your mattress sooner. What starts out like a great deal can end up costing you more in the long run.
