Austin Natural Mattress is a natural-and-organic-focused retailer that also sells an in-house line under The Natural Mattress Home, spanning budget-friendly hybrids to premium all-latex builds. In this review, I compared four mainstream models on the brand’s sale channels, focusing on support, cooling, pressure relief, motion isolation, responsiveness, edge support, and durability.
Product Overview
| Mattress | Overall Score | Pros | Cons | Ideal For | Price |
| The Natural Mattress Home Savasana | 4.1 | Gentle “hug,” good value, stable edges | Softer feel can reduce push-back | Side/back sleepers wanting a plusher hybrid | $799–$1,249 |
| The Natural Mattress Home Elysian | 4.4 | Balanced support, buoyant comfort, strong edges | Latex feel isn’t for everyone | Couples, combination sleepers, back support seekers | $1,099–$1,849 |
| The Natural Mattress Home Nirvana | 4.3 | Flippable firmness, highly responsive, durable latex | More bounce can pass along movement | Firmness tinkerers, back/stomach sleepers | $1,699–$2,799 |
| The Natural Mattress Home Cielo | 4.4 | Premium all-latex lift, excellent cooling, strong longevity | Not the best at muting partner movement | Hot sleepers, latex fans, “sleep-on-top” feel | $3,037–$6,367 |
Testing Team Takeaways
Across the four, Elysian felt like the most “complete” daily driver: steady alignment for me, fewer wake-ups for our restless partner tester, and better edges than I expected for the price. Savasana leaned cozier and more forgiving, but it gave up some quick rebound. Nirvana and Cielo delivered the cleanest latex response and the coolest surface feel, with more noticeable bounce for couples. Dr. Adrian Walker’s read was straightforward: our best nights matched the beds that kept hips level and reduced “micro-adjustments” when turning.

| Support (feel) | Soft-to-medium support; best when you like a gentler cradle | Medium-to-firm “lift” with stable midline support | Firm-leaning, especially on the firmer side; very “level” | Strong latex push-back; easy to stay on top |
| Pressure relief | Most forgiving for shoulders/hips | Balanced; cushioned without collapsing | Good, but depends heavily on which side you sleep on | Excellent, with a buoyant rather than sinking sensation |
| Cooling | Comfortable, but warmer than the latex-forward models | Consistently neutral through the night | Cool-to-neutral with fast heat dissipation | Coolest overall; minimal “heat pooling” |
| Motion isolation | Good for a hybrid; muted bounce | Very good for a latex-hybrid; fewer partner wake-ups | Moderate; latex rebound is noticeable | Fair-to-moderate; most movement travels of the four |
| Responsiveness | Moderate; slower settle-in | Quick, buoyant transitions | Fastest “turn without thinking” feel | Fast and springy |
| Edge support | Solid sitting edge; stable for getting up | Strongest edge stability in our group | Good, with slightly more compression than Elysian | Good, but softer than the coil-based edges |
How We Tested It
We rotated nightly sleep and daytime lounge sessions across the four mattresses, then repeated the same checks after our bodies “settled in” to each feel. We scored Support, Cooling, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Responsiveness, Edge Support, and Durability using consistent routines: back/side alignment checks, timed heat build-up, partner disturbance drills, and edge sitting/exit tests. Dr. Adrian Walker reviewed our posture notes and helped interpret where “soft comfort” crossed into misalignment.
Austin Natural Mattress: Our Testing Experience
The Natural Mattress Home Savasana Mattress
Our Testing Experience
By the third night, Savasana felt like the easiest bed to melt into after a long desk day. I’d lie down on my side and feel my shoulder settle without that sharp pressure-point “tap,” then roll to my back and notice the coils catch me before my hips drifted too low. Marcus, who overheats quickly, said it stayed comfortable early but warmed up more than the latex-heavy options once the room warmed. Jenna and Ethan had a smoother night here than I expected for a hybrid at this price; Ethan still felt movement, but it didn’t jolt him awake when Jenna got up.
What we liked
- Cushioning that feels forgiving without turning sloppy
- A quieter surface for couples than the bouncier latex builds
- A stable edge when sitting to put on shoes
Who it is best for
- Side sleepers who want a softer landing
- Budget-focused shoppers who still want structure
- Couples who prefer less bounce
Where it falls short
- Not as “cool and airy” as the all-latex models
- Slower turn-over feel than the latex-forward options
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
| Comfortable pressure relief for shoulders and hips | Less springy for quick position changes |
| Good motion control for a hybrid | Warms up more than latex-heavy builds |
| Solid edge for sitting and exits | Not ideal if you hate any sink-in |

| Overall Score | 4.1 | A value-leaning hybrid that prioritizes comfort and calm over bounce. |
The Natural Mattress Home Elysian Mattress
Our Testing Experience
Elysian was the bed that felt “sorted” the fastest. I’d start on my side, feel the top give just enough, and then the mattress would push back under my waist so my lower back didn’t feel like it was floating. When I sat on the edge to answer emails, it didn’t fold under me; the edge stayed supportive enough that getting up didn’t feel like climbing out of a hole. Marcus liked the way it held his hips up without a hard board-like feel. In the couple tests, Jenna and Ethan kept coming back to one phrase: the surface stayed steady when one person moved, and it let Ethan turn without having to brace.
What we liked
- The most even mix of cushion and support across positions
- Strong edge behavior for sitting and couple “spread out” nights
- Quicker, cleaner transitions than Savasana
Who it is best for
- Combination sleepers who rotate positions
- Couples who hate feeling every small movement
- Back sleepers wanting steadier lumbar support
Where it falls short
- If you want a deep, slow sink, it won’t deliver that feel
- Latex-forward comfort can feel “lively” to motion-sensitive sleepers
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
| Balanced alignment support for back and side sleeping | Not a “deep hug” mattress |
| Strong edge stability in real use | Latex buoyancy isn’t everyone’s preference |
| Very good motion control for a latex-hybrid | Firm feel can be too much for ultra-light side sleepers |

The Natural Mattress Home Nirvana Mattress
Our Testing Experience
Nirvana felt like the “control” bed in our lineup. The first thing I noticed was how quickly it responded: I could shift from side to back and the surface met me instantly, no slow settling. On nights when my lower back felt tight from desk work, I preferred the firmer side because it kept my hips level and reduced that morning stiffness sensation. Ethan, who turns constantly, liked that he could change positions without the surface grabbing at his shoulders. Jenna’s feedback was more mixed: she loved the clean push-back for reading in bed, but she also noticed more shared movement than on Elysian.
What we liked
- A responsive latex feel that makes turning effortless
- Flippable comfort that changes how the bed behaves
- Strong, level support on the firmer side
Who it is best for
- Back and stomach sleepers who want firmer support
- Restless sleepers who change positions often
- Shoppers who like the idea of flipping for a different feel
Where it falls short
- Motion is easier to feel than on Elysian
- The firmer side can feel too assertive for sensitive shoulders
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
| Very responsive surface for easy turning | More noticeable partner movement than Elysian |
| Flippable design expands comfort options | Firmer side can feel “too straight” for some side sleepers |
| Strong, even support on back sleep | Edge is solid, but not as rigid as coil-heavy edges |

Review Score
| Metric | Score | Remarks |
| Support | 4.6 | Excellent hip control, especially on the firmer side. |

The Natural Mattress Home Cielo Mattress
Our Testing Experience
Cielo was the mattress that made the room feel cooler the moment I laid down. The surface had that classic latex “lift,” where your body doesn’t sink so much as settle into a supportive cradle. I could sleep on my side without my shoulder feeling pinned, then roll to my back and feel my lumbar area supported instead of floating. Marcus liked the stability under his hips, but he also called out the bounce: when I got up, he could feel it more than on the hybrids. Jenna and Ethan described it as comfortable and clean-feeling, but not their first choice if the top priority is dampening partner motion.
What we liked
- The coolest, most breathable feel in this group
- High responsiveness for easy turning and repositioning
- A premium “sleep-on-top” sensation with strong support
Who it is best for
- Hot sleepers who want faster heat release
- Latex fans who dislike slow memory-foam behavior
- Back sleepers who want buoyant support without stiffness
Where it falls short
- Motion transfer is more noticeable than on the hybrids
- Perimeter support is good, but not as rigid as coil-encased edges
Pros & Cons
| Pros | Cons |
| Excellent cooling and breathability feel | More motion transfer than the hybrid models |
| Very responsive for turning and changing positions | Edge feels softer than coil-reinforced perimeters |
| Strong overall support with latex buoyancy | Premium pricing compared with the others |

| Motion Isolation | 3.8 | Most movement transfer in the group, especially for couples. |
| Responsiveness | 4.7 | Exceptional ease of movement and quick recovery after turns. |
| Edge Support | 4.1 | Comfortable edge sleep, but softer than coil-reinforced perimeters. |
| Durability | 4.6 | Latex construction and longer warranty framing suggest strong longevity. |
| Overall Score | 4.4 | A premium, cooling-forward latex mattress that trades calmness for bounce. |
Compare Performance Scores of These Mattresses
| Mattress | Overall Score | Support | Pressure Relief | Cooling | Motion Isolation | Durability | Responsiveness | Edge Support |
| Savasana | 4.1 | 4.2 | 4.4 | 4.0 | 4.1 | 3.9 | 3.8 | 4.2 |
| Elysian | 4.4 | 4.5 | 4.3 | 4.3 | 4.2 | 4.3 | 4.4 | 4.5 |
| Nirvana | 4.3 | 4.6 | 4.0 | 4.4 | 4.0 | 4.4 | 4.6 | 4.3 |
| Cielo | 4.4 | 4.5 | 4.4 | 4.5 | 3.8 | 4.6 | 4.7 | 4.1 |
Numerically, Elysian is the most even performer, with no obvious weak category and standout edge support for real-life couple use. Savasana’s profile is clear: it leads this group in soft pressure relief value, but trails in responsiveness and long-term durability confidence. The latex-forward models (Nirvana and Cielo) are the “turn-easy, sleep-cool” picks, and the trade-off is that you feel more of your partner’s movement.
How to Choose the Austin Natural Mattress?
Start with feel preference: if you want a gentler cradle, pick Savasana; if you want buoyant support, look at Elysian or the latex models. Heavier sleepers and hot sleepers usually land best on Elysian (balanced) or Nirvana (firmer, fast response). Couples who wake easily should favor Elysian; if one partner changes positions constantly, Nirvana’s flippable firmness can help fine-tune comfort. If cooling is your top priority, Cielo is the cleanest match.
Limitations
These models skew toward buoyant support rather than a slow, “stuck-in” memory-foam feel, so deep sink lovers may not be satisfied. The latex-forward beds (Nirvana and Cielo) can pass along more movement, which is a real downside for light sleepers sharing a bed. Savasana’s softer comfort can be a miss for strict stomach sleepers who need firmer hip control, and Cielo’s pricing makes it harder to justify unless latex is a must-have.
Austin Natural Mattress Vs. Alternatives
Why choose these models: you get a focused natural-material lineup, a clear ladder from budget hybrid to premium latex, and strong performance in support and cooling without relying on overly plush foam behavior. If you want deeper customization with interchangeable layers on each side, Naturepedic’s EOS Classic is purpose-built for that. If you want a widely known certified-organic latex hybrid with multiple firmness choices and a long trial, Avocado’s Green Mattress is a strong alternative.
Pro Tips for Austin Natural Mattress
- Give each mattress at least two full weeks before making a “keep or swap” decision; early impressions can be misleading.
- If you wake up with hip tightness, move up one step in firmness before changing pillows or toppers.
- For couples, run a simple test: one person gets in and out of bed three times while the other lies still; pick the model that disturbs the least.
- If you sit on the edge daily, prioritize the models that stayed stable in edge tests (Elysian first, then Nirvana).
- For hot sleepers, use breathable sheets and keep a thin mattress protector; thick protectors can dull cooling gains.
- If you flip positions at night, favor responsiveness over softness; latex-forward beds tend to reduce “effort turns.”
- Rotate the mattress (head-to-foot) on a schedule that matches your normal wear pattern, especially on hybrids.
- If your partner drifts to the edge, do a dedicated edge-sleep trial for three nights before you buy; edges vary more than most shoppers expect.
- If you’re torn between two models, choose based on your worst night: pain or heat usually matters more than the “nice in-store feel.”
