Best Features of the Saatva Lineal Adjustable Bed Base
As each adjustable bed base has a unique set of features, this review begins by outlining the best ones about the Saatva Lineal. After thorough research, our team agrees that the leading qualities are:
- Zero-gravity comfort for balanced, weightless support
- Built-in massager (wave, head, or leg)
- Generous 25-year warranty
As per Saatva’s website, the base is designed for customized comfort and enhanced sleep. The intention is to make sleeping easier and provide a place to relax, whether watching TV, reading a book, working, or just lying down.

Construction Details
This bed is American-made, from design to engineering and assembly. It is built to incline the head and foot sections of the base separately.
It fits most styles of bed frames and pairs with an 11.5-inch Saatva innerspring, Loom & Leaf memory foam, Zenhaven latex, or Solaire adjustable air mattress. If you have another mattress, ask the manufacturer if it is compatible with the Lineal adjustable bed base.
The Split King size is split into two units, which means you can configure it so that each side moves independently of the other. That is handy when you want a certain position and your partner desires a different one. This Split King configuration features two Twin XL mattresses within the bed frame.
The mechanical component of the Lineal is made of black steel, and the foundation the mattress rests on is grey polyester. We like that the colors are neutral so that it matches whatever decor you have in the bedroom.
Also great is the layer of poly foam that goes around the base’s edges. That provides a comfort component that is not on every base.
At the foot of the base are two plastic retainer clips that keep the mattress in place. That’s handy as some mattresses shift on other bases when adjusting positions. Finally, the base has four legs for stability, and they are adjustable from 14-18 inches off the floor.

Saatva Lineal Benefits and Any Limitations
As already mentioned, the Lineal does not shift and slide when moving the head or foot up, thanks to its thoughtful construction. In addition, Saatva makes the Lineal to fit with most bed frames, including slotted platform styles of beds.
Easy to Assemble and Use
Several users online comment on how easy the Lineal is to assemble. That is great news for those who don’t consider themselves handy or want to start setting up the bed right away.
The base comes with a detailed instruction guide. But, if you don’t feel comfortable with the DIY approach, Saatva offers to set it up in your chosen room for free as part of its white glove delivery service. Please note that this offer can change in the future, and we are not responsible for any discrepancies.
In addition to being easy to setup, the Lineal Adjustable Bed Base gets high marks from web reviewers for being simple to use. Using the included remote control, you can raise the head and foot of the bed to find a position that is the most comfortable for you.
Moving Positions
Being able to raise and lower the head from the foot independently makes the number of angles you can achieve seemingly endless. You can raise the head and not the foot, and vice versa, too.
Some reviewers, however, explain that the Saatva Lineal moves slowly between positions. It is quiet, though, which is more important than speed, in our opinion, especially if you sleep with a partner who you don’t want to wake up when changing the position during the night.
Preset Positions
Another feature we like is that you can enter preset positions into the wireless remote. For example, if you find a great position for reading a book, save it as a custom setting in the remote.
There are also preset positions already on the remote, which is handy. There are Flat, Zero Gravity, and TV presets. Unfortunately, you must hold down the button until reaching the position, rather than simply pressing it, which can be cumbersome for some people. But we feel the Zero Gravity position is well worth it!
Zero Gravity
This feature shifts the base into a position that has a weightless feel. The angle of the body is such that it optimizes the body’s weight distribution and relieves back pressure. Some people also note that the Zero Gravity position improves circulation.
Massager
Another quality we love about Lineal Adjustable Bed Base is that it can massage you! Simply press the buttons in the “Massage” area of the remote for different kinds of massage. There is a head, foot, or full-body wave massage.
Choose from three different speeds. It is a vibration type of massage, rather than having moving parts that press into your body, and it automatically turns off after 15 minutes.
What Else We Like about the Lineal
The wall-hugging feature, under bed illumination lights, and long warranty are other great features of the Saatva Lineal Adjustable Bed Base. It’s budget-friendly too!
Wall Hugging
The wall-hugging feature is great if you want to make sure that you don’t scratch the walls. If your bed is in a smaller room, this feature is handy. It enables you to raise and lower the bed without worrying about it hitting the wall as you change positions. Simply tap the remote to illuminate the base.
Under Bed Lights
This is a great-looking feature that has safety benefits. The under bed lights provide an attractive, soft glow below the bed. The light also helps you see if you get up in the middle of the night the path to the bathroom, which helps you avoid falling.
Great Warranty
We are impressed by the lengthy warranty included with the Saatva Lineal Adjustable Bed Base. It comes with a 25-year limited warranty, which gives you good peace of mind that Saatva believes in the product. The generous warranty speaks highly of the quality of the base. Please note that Saatva can change this policy in the future, and we are not responsible for any discrepancies.
Affordable
The Lineal is a great value, in our opinion. You get the handy features mentioned above, including a built-in massager and long warranty, for a reasonable price tag. If you are looking to get a quality bed product without overpaying for it, the Lineal is one to consider.
Sizes of the Lineal Adjustable Bed Base
Saatva provides a range of sizes. Simply choose one when ordering online and select standard or Upper-Flex (especially for the Solaire Upper-Flex Mattress). Easily pair it with a new mattress in the same order too.
The base sizes available are:
- Twin
- Twin XL
- Full
- Queen
- Split Cal King
- King
- Cal King
- Split King
You can expect to pay more as you go up in size, which makes sense. However, we feel each price is reasonable.
Saatva Lineal Adjustable Bed Base Review Conclusion
The Lineal has a lot of great features for a customizable sleep experience. This base is well-constructed and easy to use with the wireless remote to find a comfortable position for your body.
Saatva will also set up the bed for you! Enjoy the Zero-Gravity feature, as well as the massager. Perhaps best of all, the base is budget-friendly without compromising quality. It is no wonder that the Lineal Adjustable Bed Base is one of the top adjustable bed bases, in our opinion.
