Havertys Mattress Review
Havertys is a 140-year-old Southern furniture retailer. Its exclusive 1885 2.0 line pairs CertiPUR-US foams, including isotonic memory foam, with wrapped coils and cooling covers. You can pick Firm, Medium Pillow Top or Soft, and there are kids models too. It's best if you live near a Havertys showroom and want to test a bed before you buy. The online trial terms for the 1885 line aren't published, and that's the weak spot. You'll want to confirm return terms in writing.

Which mattress suits your sleep needs?
Back and stomach sleepers should look at the 1885 2.0 Firm Tight Top for lie-on-top support with minimal sink. Side sleepers should start with the Medium Pillow Top. Its zoned coils and thick foam cradle you. The Soft comes second for maximum pressure relief. Combination sleepers get balance from the Medium.
All 2.0 models claim cooling covers with gel-infused or heat-dissipating layers. We found no independent cooling test data, so test in store if you sleep hot. Couples get wrapped coils plus memory foam, which promise motion isolation. No independent motion-transfer scores are published.
For kids and teens, the Youth Firm suits support-seeking kids. The Youth Plush gives all-position comfort. The Youth Pillow Top is the thickest build for growing bodies. The Medium cites zoned coils and a foam-encased edge for heavier or edge-sitting sleepers. The brand doesn't publish weight-limit or edge-support test figures.
Mattress prices and value
These prices were displayed in September 2026. Sale pricing rotates, and Havertys advertises Everything Is On Sale plus a price-match guarantee. The 2.0 Firm queen is $729.00 (second listed price $749.00). The Medium Pillow Top queen is $959.00 (second listed $999.00). The Soft queen is $859.00 (second listed $899.00). The Youth Firm twin is $659.00, the Youth Plush twin is $699.00 and the Youth Pillow Top twin is $749.00. Full per-size price grids aren't published.
It's mid-range furniture-store pricing. It's above budget bed-in-a-box but below the Tempur-Pedic Luxe lines sold in the same stores. The value depends on in-store sale timing and the included delivery with free mattress removal, not on a trial. Everyday financing is advertised, but we didn't verify the terms for mattresses.
What are the mattresses made of?
Per the Havertys model pages, these are hybrids. They use CertiPUR-US certified foams plus individually wrapped (pocketed) coils with foam edge encasement and cooling covers. The Firm has plush CertiPUR-US foam, foam-encased power-packed coils and a cooling cover. The Medium Pillow Top has five layers of high-density CertiPUR-US foam and gel-infused quilt foam. It adds isotonic memory foam that self-adjusts to your body, zoned power-packed wrapped steel coils and a fully foam-encased perimeter.
The Soft uses CertiPUR-US luxury upholstery foam, super-soft quilt foam, isotonic memory foam and power-packed coils. Youth models use layered CertiPUR-US foams. The Youth Plush and Pillow Top add super-soft quilt and gel-infused quilt foam.
The brand doesn't publish coil counts or gauges, foam densities or ILDs, or certifications beyond CertiPUR-US, such as GOTS, OEKO-TEX or GREENGUARD. It claims no latex. It doesn't publish the maker of the private-label beds (checked September 2026).
How well do the mattresses hold up?
Durability evidence is thin. The 2.0 line marks Havertys' 140th anniversary, with a refresh around 2025, so no long-term owner data exists yet. Foam-encased edges, zoned coils on the Medium and 10-year non-prorated warranties on adult models (5-year on Youth) are positive signs.
The brand doesn't publish coil specs, foam densities, sag thresholds or independent durability testing. On-site reviews are recent and few. It doesn't publish lifespan claims. Treat it as a standard 7 to 10 year hybrid bet backed by the store warranty, not a proven long-hauler.
Customer reviews and complaints
On havertys.com (PowerReviews) in September 2026, the 2.0 Firm has 4.2 stars from 9 written reviews. Charles said it's very comfortable with firmness just right. Janice found it very comfortable on a day bed. The 2.0 Medium Pillow Top has 4.6 stars from 14 reviews. Stephanie found it the most comfortable of three she test-laid. Gary felt confident based on past Havertys mattresses.
The 2.0 Soft has 4.3 stars from 3 reviews. The Youth Firm has 4.7 stars from 3 reviews, and one reviewer notes a brief foam adjustment period. The Youth Plush has 5.0 stars from 5 reviews. The Youth Pillow Top has 5.0 stars from 3 reviews. All samples are small and hosted by the retailer. We found no third-party 1885 reviews, editorial tests or mattress-specific complaint tallies. We couldn't tie general furniture-store complaints, such as delivery scheduling and damage claims, to 1885 mattresses.
Where can you try and buy?
You can try and buy only through Havertys. It has 125+ stores across 17 states, per its About page. It was founded in 1885 in Atlanta. Sleep Experts help you test in store. You can also order at havertys.com, which gives zip-code delivery estimates and free store or warehouse pickup.
The 1885 line is exclusive to Havertys. It isn't sold on Amazon, Wayfair, Costco or other retailers as of September 2026. The same stores sell Tempur-Pedic, Serta, Stearns and Foster, Beautyrest, Sealy and Skye by Havertys, so you can compare side by side. Per its Terms, Havertys doesn't sell or deliver to California.
Delivery, setup and removal
Top Drawer Delivery promises expert in-home delivery with a quality double-check, a two-hour appointment window and professional cleanup. Havertys advertises complimentary mattress removal with Top Drawer Delivery of a new mattress. It also offers free Buy Online Pickup In Store. You'll need photo ID, you must be the purchaser, and you'll need a vehicle and blankets.
No assembly is required. The brand doesn't publish other setup details, delivery fees, zones, thresholds or timelines (checked September 2026). The delivery fee is nonrefundable per policy, and estimates need a zip code at checkout.
Sleep trial and returns
The general policy gives you a 3-day reselect-or-cancel window. But mattresses, adjustable bases, foundations, floor samples and clearance are excluded. Delivery fees are never refunded. FedEx-shipped small goods carry a 15% restocking fee.
The Mattress Sleep Guarantee covers only Tempur-Pedic, Stearns and Foster and Sealy Hybrid. You can exchange or return after 30 nights and before 90 nights. Beautyrest Black and Serta run after 30 and before 120 nights. You get one comfort exchange per customer, and you can reselect any brand, with box-spring rules. The brand doesn't publish 1885-line trial, exchange, return or fee terms (checked September 2026). Confirm in writing before you buy.
Warranty
Adult 1885 2.0 models carry a 10-Year Non-Prorated Warranty. Youth models carry a 5-Year Non-Prorated Warranty, per the model pages. Havertys adds 1 year of free parts and labor from the delivery date under manufacturer warranties. That excludes floor samples, clearance and as-is items. Service goes through 1-888-HAVERTYS.
The brand doesn't publish full warranty documents. That includes defect definitions, sag-depth thresholds, proration after the term, foundation requirements and the claim process. An optional 5-year furniture Protection Plan is advertised. The brand doesn't say whether it covers mattresses (checked September 2026).
Havertys vs. other brands
Inside Havertys, 1885 2.0 is the house-brand value play under premium Tempur-Pedic, Stearns and Foster and Beautyrest Black. You get side-by-side testing and bundled delivery. But the national brands carry the only published comfort guarantees (90 and 120 nights).
Against bed-in-a-box brands like Casper, Purple and Nectar, Havertys wins on try-before-you-buy and removal service. It loses on published trial length, online review depth and nationwide ship-to-door. Other furniture-store private labels tell a comparable mid-range hybrid story. Isotonic memory foam and CertiPUR-US claims set 1885 apart. We found no independent head-to-head test data.
