Construction of Saatva’s Upholstered Beds

The construction is high-quality for the Upholstered Bed Frame lineup at Saatva, in our opinion. The materials and the way the frames are made speak highly to attention to detail, focusing on creating a longer-lasting product.

Kiln-Dried Hardwood

All the bed frames come from kiln-dried hardwood. This process makes for a solid construction; kiln-dried furniture has less moisture in the wood. Kiln-drying also resists warping for great durability. 

The wood frame beneath the upholstery is also better for the environment than a metal one as it can be recycled for many different uses. The wood could be reused for cabinets, for example. 

Strong Hardware

Furthermore, Saatva uses fortified attachment hardware. The many bolts and brackets ensure that pieces, such as the headboard, side rails, and footboard, are stable and designed to last. 

Several Support Feet

Extra durability also comes from the use of multiple support feet. Not only can the additional support help you feel more secure while sleeping, but it also provides great support for the bed in combination with the slats.

Free Standing

We also like that the designs are all free-standing. That means you can put anywhere you like in the room. It looks great in an open concept home too.

Slats

Slats are the mattress support system for Saatva’s Upholstered Beds. The top-quality plywood material makes for a long-lasting frame, as per the Saatva website. 

What about Fabrics and Colors?

For the fabric, Saatva offers either “Vintage Velvet” or Linen. What they call Vintage Velvet on the descriptions of the Upholstered Bed Frames is a poly-cotton blend. It has a similar soft look and feel to velvet at an affordable price.

Linen is lighter than Vintage Velvet. It also is more environmentally friendly because it is made from natural flax fibers without dyes or chemicals. The Linen finish is textured, while Vintage Velvet is matte.

Choose from three neutral color options for all but a few of the bed frames. We like that you can customize the look of the upholstery this way! Linen comes in the Natural color, while Vintage Velvet comes in Graphite or Taupe shades. 

These three neutral shades are pleasing to the eye. They have a restful appearance that can improve your sleep setup.

If you’re unsure which one to get, Saatva provides the option to order fabric swatches from their website. Seeing the fabric in person helps you envision how the upholstery will look in your bedroom. This sample is an excellent customer service option.

Upholstered Bed Frame Review: Pros and Any Limitations 

A great place to start is with the appearance of the upholstered options at Saatva. After all, you want to like the look of it, whether it’s for your bedroom, another member of the family, or a guest room.

Designer Look

If you want your bedroom to have a designer look, the Saatva collection of upholstered beds is one to browse. Our first impression of the designs is that they are elegant and understated. While each design is slightly different from the rest, they share the same chic look that would elevate almost any bedroom that it’s in immediately.

With that said, the options may not interest kids as they are neutral tones and there are no bright shades or bold patterns. The same holds true if you want to make a showy statement with your bed frame; Saatva may not provide what you’re looking for.

This point will not be relevant to you, though, if you are shopping for a frame for a bed that is modern, sophisticated, and minimalistic. The minimalist appearance is popular for home decor for its calming attributes. We think this relaxed effect is particularly relevant to bedroom furniture, including upholstered bed frames. 

Plus, the classic patterns on some of the fabric-covered bed frames, such as tufted headboards, are a beautiful feature. We could envision this style fitting in many master bedrooms, as do the neutral colors.

Great Selection

We are impressed that Saatva does not only offer one upholstered bed frame. Instead, there are several to choose from in their online collection. 

Easily browse through the different models to find one that you find attractive. There are frames with and without headboards, depending on what you prefer.

You can also select which fabric and color you want for several bed frames. For example, the Amalfi Platform Bed comes in taupe Vintage Velvet, graphite Vintage Velvet, or natural Linen. Having a lot of selection and the ability to customize the frame means there is something for almost anyone here.

Care

The care instructions from Saatva for a Upholstered Bed Frame includes vacuuming it regularly to remove any dust or dirt. A hand-held vacuum can do so easily, especially when reaching the top of the headboard. 

Sleep Trial

A 365-night sleep trial comes with your bed frame. That is great news for anyone who wants to try out the frame without feeling a time crunch like when you’re at a physical mattress showroom. 

In the slight chance that you are unhappy with the Upholstered Bed Frame, you can return or exchange it. Please note, though, that you pay the shipping cost for the return. Still, we like that you can see if the frame works for you in your home with the option to return or exchange within 365 nights, which is a long time.

Luxury Feel at a Reasonable Price

Whether you choose Saatva’s Vintage Velvet or Linen fabric, the Upholstered Bed Frame feels luxurious to the touch. That can elevate the atmosphere of the bedroom overall. Plus, when you go to bed, having a soft fabric surrounding you is comforting. 

We appreciate too that the luxury feel does not come with an exorbitant price tag. Saatva’s Upholstered Bed Frames are competitively priced, and there are sales online occasionally too. The great value of the collection is evident. 

You can save too when you bundle a Saatva Upholstered Bed with a Saatva Mattress in the same order. The delivery is free too, which saves you money.

Great Customer Service 

There are many ways that Saatva’s customer service team goes above and beyond when it comes to Upholstered Beds. As already mentioned, the company provides swatches to help you decide which fabric will look the best in your chosen room.

Plus, Saatva covers shipping costs and delivers the frame right to your home. That is convenient and saves you time. 

The company goes even further by including a free setup of the bed frame in your room of choice. We are pleasantly surprised by the service, and we appreciate that it will help those who have aches and pains that keep them from being able to put the upholstered frame together on their own. 

It is no wonder that Saatva receives many rave reviews online for terrific customer support. Their service team is available by email, phone, and chat. The online chat feature makes it easy to ask a question any time of the day.

Is There an Included Warranty?

Saatva stands behind the quality of its Upholstered Bed Frames by included a lifetime warranty with each one. This policy is generous in length, rather than being only being restricted to a few years.

The warranty covers any defects due to faulty materials and workmanship for the life of the frame, provided certain conditions are met. Saatva offers either replacement or repair for defects.

The policy speaks to the longevity of the product and quality of its construction. Plus, it gives you peace of mind in your purchase. We want to point out, though, that the warranty does not include upholstery.

Always read warranties in full at the company website to ensure you know everything it entails. Please note that the Upholstered Bed warranty can change after this review publishes, and we are not responsible for any discrepancies.

What about Sizing?

The Upholstered Bed Frames come in three popular sizes:

• Queen
• King
• California King

The size of the bed frame is meant to match the size of your mattress. So, a King size mattress fits with a King size frame. 

We notice there is no Full size. Still, there is a good size selection so that you can find a frame with a good fit for many mattresses.

With several modern styles and two fabric choices, Saatva’s Upholstered Bed Frames look deluxe. While the neutral tones of the upholstery will not appeal to everyone, we appreciate how they can add a relaxing atmosphere to almost any bedroom.

They are well-made, feature quality materials, such as kiln-dried hardwood and premium fabric, and have durable hardware and slats, all at a reasonable price. Plus, there are various sizes, a generous warranty, and a 365-night home trial. Given the many benefits, we recommend the Saatva Upholstered Bed Frame collection.
