While you can't put a price tag on a good night's sleep, some of the best mattresses can cost a pretty penny. That's why shopping for a new mattress or bed frame can be worth delaying until a major sales event arrives — especially a mammoth one like Cyber Monday 2024.
The Cyber Monday sales have just started, so if you missed out on a Black Friday mattress deal, there's never been a better time to shop for your next bed frame, mattress or bedding. Nowadays, some of the most popular mattresses come from bed-in-a-box retailers, like Koala, Ecosa and Eva.
These mattresses are come shrink-wrapped and delivered right to your door. Plus, most retailers let you try them out in the comfort of your own home in the form of a risk-free trial, which can last anywhere between 30 nights to a full year. And if you're not happy with the mattress, you can organise for it to be sent back at no extra cost to you and receive a full refund.
Some retailers even offer a range of bedroom furniture and bedding alongside their mattress lineup. Plus, retailers typically offer site-wide discounts during the entirety of Cyber Weekend, meaning you could revamp your bedroom, the guest bedroom or your kids' room for a whole lot less. Brands may even offer free bedding, like pillows or mattress protectors during Cyber Monday sales too, as a promotional bundle when you purchase a mattress or bed frame.
So if you're looking to maximise your savings, now is the perfect time to purchase a new mattress, as the official deals have landed across the top bedding retailers. You can scroll on to check out our handpicked best deals we've seen so far, but you may want to bookmark this page as we'll be constantly updating it with brand-new bed deals as they appear over the Cyber Weekend sales period.

Cyber Monday mattress deals: FAQs
When do Cyber Monday mattress sales start in Australia?
Cyber Monday 2024 lands on Monday, December 2 this year, following the sale that was Black Friday on November 29. While discounts take place over the four-day period, the big hitters in the mattress world — think Koala, Ecosa and Emma Sleep — have already started discounting their mattresses, bed frames and more.
Most offers will likely stay the same from start to finish over the course of the month, so you should have plenty of time to keep your eyes peeled and wallet ready for a good deal worth nabbing.
Is Cyber Monday a good time to buy a mattress?
Yes — Black Friday / Cyber Monday is arguably the best time to buy a new mattress. Not only will you get it for a lot less, but nearly all of the top mattresses sold online and in-store are discounted, meaning you'll have plenty of options to choose from.
Some of the highly competitive and popular brands will slash nearly hundreds of dollars off, plus throw in some great freebies, like pillows, mattress protectors and bedding.
That said, most mattress brands in Australia do offer discounts pretty regularly throughout the year, with some offering up to 55% off. As great as these deals may sound, it's highly likely that any Cyber Monday mattress deals will be far more attractive than other times of the year.
Can I get free bedding with mattresses on Cyber Monday?
Yes — some mattress retailers and brands chuck in free mattress protectors, duvets, pillows and sometimes even bed frames to make their deals even more appealing.
However, this isn't unusual, as it's something we typically see most months, regardless of seasonal sales. But during Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales in recent years, we've seen an uptick in free gifts coupled with sizeable discounts on mattresses, especially free pillows. That's why we've found that Cyber Weekend is an ideal time to buy a new bed.
Cyber Monday mattress deals: Shopping tips
How to choose the best Cyber Monday mattress deal
Buying a new mattress can be intimidating. However, many bed-in-a-box companies have made the process simple. Some companies even offer a white-glove service and will remove your old mattress when delivering your new one.
Keep in mind that while you may see ultra cheap deals on Cyber Monday, a mattress is something you will use every night of your life. In other words, if there's one item you should splurge on — a mattress would be it.
We've reviewed a few Aussie mattresses here at Tom's Guide, and while Koala and Emma have some excellent options, don't discount Eva either. Keep in mind, though, that all brands offer a range of mattresses — some are all foam while others will be hybrid with pocket springs, so choose wisely.
Things to keep in mind before you buy a mattress
- Never pay full price: Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the best time to buy a new mattress or new bedding. Other major sales like EOFY and Click Frenzy pale in comparison to the Cyber Monday mattress sales. In other words, rest assured you're getting the lowest price of the year.
- Know your return policy: Never buy a mattress without knowing the manufacturer's return policy. On paper, it may sound like the mattress of your dreams, but it could wind up being too firm or too soft for your liking. This is even more important now that most of us are doing our shopping online. A good return policy will offer at least a 100-night trial with free return shipping and no penalty fees. Some companies will go so far as offering 12-months trials with free return shipping.
