Saatva's been hiding a luxury memory foam mattress — here's how to find it and save $400
Here's a funny thing, though: look at the Saatva site and you'll see that the only all-foam bed on offer is the Saatva Contour5. And you know what? That would be a great buy: it's a luxurious option that ranks highly in our guide to the best memory foam mattresses.
But hold on a second, because there's actually another luxury memory foam bed hidden away on the Saatva site, and it's well worth investigating if you're shopping the Labor Day mattress sales. It's called the Saatva Loom & Leaf, it sells for the exact same price as the Contour5 and it's made with similar materials, and if you follow our link you can get it with $400 off in an exclusive Labor Day offer.
So what's the deal with the Loom & Leaf, and is it worth shopping in the mattress sales? Here's what you need to know,
Saatva Loom & Leaf: twin was $1,899 now $1,499 at SaatvaThe Saatva Loom & Leaf is a luxury mattress made with premium 5lb memory foam that provides plenty of contouring and pressure relief, along with outstanding motion isolation. And it offers enhanced lumbar support, making it a strong choice if you're looking for a mattress that can help with back pain. As an all-foam bed, however, it's prone to trapping heat, and although it comes in two firmness options it may still be too plush for some. Follow our link to get $400 off the Loom & Leaf in the Saatva mattress sales; a queen is reduced to $2,599 (was $2,999) and you'll get free white glove delivery, a 365-night home trial and a lifetime warranty. Returns will cost $99, though.
The Saatva Loom & Leaf is a premium 12" memory foam bed, made with body-hugging 5lb memory foam. First sold by Saatva back in 2015, it comes in two firmness options: there's a relaxed firm model that Saatva rates a 5-7 out of 10, and a firm option rated 8 out 10, so there's an option for every sleep position.
Beneath the Loom & Leaf's quilted top cover there are five layers of foam that combine to provide lower back support and breathability, while delivering just the right amount of all-body support.
In our Saatva Loom & Leaf mattress review our lead reviewer was impressed by how this mattress helped with her lower back injury and noted how after three weeks sleeping on it she was waking up with almost no lower back pain.
She was impressed by how the Loom & Leaf's dense foam almost eliminated motion transfer, however she did find that it was lacking in edge support and, more importantly, that despite cooling tech built into several of its layers, it had a definite tendency to trap heat. In general, however, she recommended it for anyone suffering from a sore back or joint pain, and loved the cushioned support it delivered, along with its build quality.
So, why has Saatva hidden the Loom & Leaf away on its site? I have a couple of thoughts on that.
The first is the Saatva Contour5. While it's not exactly the same mattress as the Loom & Leaf, it's very similar and comes in at the same price in all sizes. And as you'll learn from our Saatva Contour5 mattress review, it's much better than the Loom & Leaf at keeping cool, thanks to features like a CoolVent system that wicks away heat and gel-infused foam that also air flow channels throughout.
Saatva Contour5: twin was $1,899 now $1,499 at SaatvaThe Contour5 supports all sleep positions and delivers plenty of pressure relief and minimal motion isolation. It comes in medium and firm feels, and it's an improvement on the venerable Loom & Leaf when it comes to cooling prowess. Use our exclusive Saatva link and you can get $400 off the Contour5 in all sizes, which means a queen will cost you $2,599 (was $2,999). That's a great price for one of the best and most luxurious all-foam beds on the market.
Why not just ditch the Loom & Leaf then? Well, as I mentioned, it was launched back in 2015, and if you read its user reviews, you'll see that it's a well-loved mattress with some customers coming back to buy another when their old one needs replacing.
So why wouldn't Saatva keep the Loom & Leaf available for returning customers? It makes its mattresses to order, so it's not a big deal to keep turning out the odd Loom & Leaf when requested, even if its memory foam focus is on the Contour5.
Personally, I think the Loom & Leaf looks much nicer than the Contour 5, thanks to its quilted top and handles, even if its cooling isn't quite as good. But whichever option you choose I think you'll end up with a quality memory foam mattress.

Can New Nissan Leaf Restore Automaker's Electric Vehicle Leadership?
Tesla might be the poster child of the electric vehicle revolution, but the Nissan Leaf deserves equal credit for making EVs viable as everyday cars. But Nissan hasn't capitalized on its early lead with later electrified models, and has even been facing an economic crisis. Now the company has gone back to its electric roots with the third generation Nissan Leaf, which was unveiled at EVS 38 in Gothenburg in June. Is this a sign of a return to form? I talked to Nissan about how the new car could be part of a revival of fortunes for the company. Nissan Leaf: Back To Mainstream EVs? Nissan hasn't been sitting on its laurels. The company has produced a credible larger EV in the shape of the Ariya, targeting the lucrative premium mid-sized SUV market that has been dominated by Tesla's Model Y for a few years now. But despite the quality of this car, it hasn't made a huge impact on the market yet, although the recent huge price drops could make it much more popular in the UK. With the new, third generation Leaf, Nissan is hoping to hit a more everyday market than the Ariya. 'The outgoing Leaf was well appreciated because of its size, performance and price,' says Shunsuke Shigemoto, Vice President of ePowertrain Technology, Research, and Advanced Engineering, Nissan. He also argues that the size is just right for European roads. 'Cars are getting bigger, but the roads and parking spots aren't.' The new Leaf is about the same proportions as the previous model, although the design makes it look bigger. It's slightly shorter in length and height, but a little wider. Shigemoto argues that the new Leaf's practicality and technology are in a sweet spot. 'It's a compelling package that can go 600km, give or take.' The WLTP rating for the largest battery version (75kWh) is 604km (377 miles), which would imply high efficiency, although this hasn't been officially certified yet. 'The first Leaf was very much made for early adopters, tech- or environment-oriented people that were blind to all the downsides of EVs at the time,' adds Xavier Tesson, product planning director, EMEA, India and Oceania, Electric Vehicles, Nissan. With the new Leaf, Nissan didn't want the electric powertrain to be the focus anymore. 'It should be an EV, but accessible to everybody, and not just tech for tech's sake. We know that the Chinese are strong on tech, but it's very often disconnected from its actual usage. I could put my grandma [in the new Nissan Leaf], and she would be fine.' Building On The Nissan Leaf's 15-Year History Shigemoto argues that Nissan's long experience from the previous Leafs has given it an advantage with the new one. 'The 700,000 cars that we sold globally, but also the 290,000 that we sold in Europe, is a valuable asset in terms of technical knowledge and the engagement with our customers,' he says. 'We could design the new Leaf around what we have learned. We are also expecting customers that previously owned the Leaf to move to the new one, but also people who are driving an e-power [Nissan's serial hybrid technology]'What we are focusing on today is the design,' says Tesson. 'It's very much adapted to Europe. In the past, it was slightly different story, a bit more Japanese.' Nissan's use of assistance technology has been constrained by European regulations, but Tesson argues that the new Leaf will have as much new tech as possible. 'We have not just intelligent cruise control, but intelligent regen as well, maximizing the benefits of the system linked to navigation. It now predicts when the curves are coming, when the hills are coming, and it does this automatically, without any user input.' Drivers can still adjust regeneration themselves, though, and decide whether to engage Nissan's e-pedal single-pedal driving mode. Can The Nissan Leaf Beat Chinese Competition? However, the question remains whether Nissan can compete with the onslaught from Chinese EVs, particularly in the UK, which doesn't currently tariff automotive imports at the level of the EU or USA. 'Looking at the specifications, they are offering a compelling package at a price point,' says Shigemoto. 'But we also know that they are producing in China and then shipping to Europe. It does look like the 80s between Japan and the US. BYD has announced that they're going to put an industrial footprint in Europe, maybe other manufacturers will follow.' That will also change the prices the Chinese can offer, possibly erasing their cost advantage. 'But we still must be at the top of our game to compete with them.' 'It's not just the Chinese,' adds Tesson. 'We're going to have more Koreans, or even just historical European manufacturers.' In the UK, at least, the new Electric Car Grant that is awarded based on manufacturing carbon footprint could give Nissan an advantage. The Nissan Leaf will be produced in Sunderland, UK with many local components, making the supply chain extremely local. 'We produce the car in the UK,' says Shigemoto. 'Right across the road, we produce the battery, and we will also produce the three-in-one e-powertrain. We want to bring more suppliers to be in that industrial area in Sunderland. Our goal is carbon neutrality. It's not just about the battery EV technology itself.' However, Nissan isn't putting all its eggs in the EV basket either when it comes to powertrains. 'We have two pillars,' says Tesson. 'The first pillar is EVs like the Leaf. This is the car that will help all those EV-resistant people move from ICE to electric. Now we have a great package that really fits the needs of most of our customers. That's going to be our core model in the EV market, and it's just one of them. We're continuing Ariya. We announced Micra. Very soon, we are going to show [an electric] Juke. We are really coming strong with that EV offensive.' 'The second pillar is we've seen that electrification has slowed down quite a bit, but it's still going strong,' adds Tesson. 'So we have the second ICE pillar that we are strengthening as well. We're continuing with a double powertrain offer. We have a great powertrain, e-power, that we have on Qashqai and X-Trail. We have a great more standard hybrid with Juke. We are about to showcase our new third generation e-power on Qashqai, bringing it to the next level. The Chinese are coming strong, but they still don't know the European customers that well. We have that knowledge, and we're capable of having a double offer that really caters to both populations in Europe.' But the third generation Nissan Leaf is clearly a crucial product for the company's European business, as EVs continue to grow in market share in most countries. Cars will be imported from the UK to Europe, but not the USA. It's meant to hit a sweet spot of range, performance and technology for the European market, and even includes technical tricks like a 'motion frosting' sunroof that can darken in sections – something previously only seen on premium cars like the Lotus Emeya. 'We think the new Leaf is a compelling package,' says Shigemoto. 'If we can meet the price, it's going to be competitive. We're back in the game!'

Saatva's been hiding a luxury memory foam mattress — here's how to find it and save $400
If you're set on buying a premium memory foam mattress, you may well have found yourself browsing the Saatva site to see what's for sale.
