Conclusion

Leesa mattress was birthed out of the resolution of its founders to solve their own mattress challenges before it became a customer-conscious brand.

The company offers three different mattresses: Original Leesa, Leesa Hybrid and Leesa Legend. Two hybrids and one all foam. This leaves both parties happy when they knock at the door (spring lovers and all-foam lovers).

However they fail to incorporate the needs of different sleepers when it comes to sleeping positions with just a medium-firm option promising one-size-fits-all.

And that’s where Saatva, who by the way is an excellent brand with similar varied options topples over. Saatva also come with longer trial and warranty compared to Leesa. 180 nights against 100 for trial, and 15 years against 10 for warranty.

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.
