Black Friday mattress deals 2024: the best sales picked by our experts

2. The Allswell 10" Hybrid Mattress (queen): $317 $284 at Walmart
It's rare to find a hybrid mattress at this low price, so we wouldn't be surprised if the Allswell 10" Hybrid deal sells out at Walmart this weekend. We rate The Allswell as one of the best cheap mattresses for people who like a firmer feeling mattress – we don't recommend this to side sleepers who like a softer mattress (try the Zinus Memory Foam for $229 for a queen at Amazon instead). The lead tester for our Allswell mattress review was impressed with how well it reduced pressure points, and found the edge support to be strong for such a cheap mattress. The Allswell 10" Hybrid is rarely on sale, but this Black Friday you buy a queen size for $284 (was $317). We don’t know how long this discount will last, so we advise buying sooner to avoid disappointment.

4. Casper The One (queen): $999 $799 at Casper
The One is Casper’s only all-foam mattress and a great choice for those on a smaller budget. Despite being made with memory foam, The One is firmer than you might expect, providing good spinal alignment, particularly for back sleepers. The mattress also uses open cell foam to help keep air flowing and prevent overheating. A queen is reduced to $799 (MSRP $999) and you’ll get a 100-night trial, 10-year warranty and free delivery. This matches the price we saw on Labor Day, which was the biggest discount we’ve seen on the bed.

5. Nectar Classic Memory Foam (queen): $649 at Nectar
Price last month: $649
Lowest this year: $599
Last year: $659
Likelihood of new discount: Low

Review score: ★★★★1/2
Firmness: 6.5-7/10
Best for: side sleepers, couples

The bottom line: If you're looking for outstanding value at an affordable price, the Nectar Memory Foam mattress is a top choice all year round. It isn’t cheaper for Black Friday: you can buy a twin for $349 or a queen for $649 most months. But these are extremely competitive prices for a high-quality, mid-range mattress that performed well in our all tests. We think it’s the best memory foam mattress under $1,000: you get the the hug-like, cushioned comfort you expect from memory foam, with excellent pressure relief and full-body support, plus good cooling capabilities - and it’s more affordable than most of its closest rivals (with a huge 365-night trial and lifetime warranty). Could the price drop further for Black Friday? There was a flash sale at the start of November that took an extra $50 off a queen… but we don’t expect this to happen again.

7. Emma Hybrid 10” Cooling Mattress: from $899 $359.60 at Emma
Emma’s cheapest cooling mattress comes with a breathable cover to wick away moisture, along with the brand’s Airgocell foam that absorbs and releases body heat to ensure sleepers don’t overheat. The pocket spring layer enhances airflow but also has seven zones to ensure support where you need it. We haven’t tested the mattress yet, but Emma rates it at 6 out of 10, which should give the mattress a medium firm feel that should appeal to average weight back and side sleepers. A queen is $607.50 (was $1,349) in a 50% off sale. With our exclusive discount code you can get an extra 10% off at checkout, making the total saving 60%. Enter TOMS10 at checkout to get the deal. This is the best price we've seen

8. Zinus Ultra Cooling Green Tea mattress: from $699 $499 at Zinus
This 12” memory foam mattress is packed with cooling tech that will leave you feeling cool all night long. Along with cooling gel it also features a 7-zone support and enhanced air flower exceptional pressure relief and comfort for hot sleepers. You can save up to 35% on this mattress making it one of the cheapest cooling mattresses on the market, bringing the cost of a queen down to just $499 (was $899).

10. Nolah Evolution 15 mattress: from $1,499 now $924 at Nolah
The Nolah Evolution 15 is a luxury hybrid that comes with three firmness options. The ones coils mean that you get excellent lumbar support making it a great choice for those with lower back pain. Nolah run regular sales throughout the year but we have an exclusive offer which is the standard 35% off plus an extra $50 bringing the cost of a queen down to just $1,574 (was $2,399).

10” Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress: from $199.99 $159.99 at Linenspa
The 10” Linenspa Memory Foam Mattress is one of the best hybrid mattresses for those on a budget. Even though Linenspa rarely ever discounts this hybrid mattress, you’ll always get a queen-size for under $350. However, thanks to a well-hidden 20% off sale (you need to add the mattress to your cart to see the sale price), a queen is now $255.99 down from $319.99. We’ve never seen a discount higher than 20% off, so we suggest snagging this deal while you can. Our Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress review praised the incredibly cheap price, but if you want an affordable hybrid with better cooling and motion isolation, go for the Allswell Hybrid above.

Tulo Bamboo 10" Medium Plush Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress: from $569.99 $215.99 at Mattress Firm
Designed for side sleepers in need of body-contouring pressure relief, the Tulo 10” Memory Foam Bamboo Mattress is an all-foam model made from naturally clean materials. These materials include naturally breathable bamboo threads and antimicrobial green tea infused into the memory foam. Right now, a queen is an impressive 62% off, taking the $789.99 MSRP down to just $299.99. We doubt we’ll see such an epic discount drop further, so now is the right time to buy. While its memory foam design will suit side sleepers, front and back sleepers may want to try a supportive hybrid like the Linenspa and Allswell above.

Helix Dusk Luxe: was from $1,373.33 $1,002.54 at Helix
The Helix Dusk Luxe takes top place in our best mattress for stomach sleepers guide, thanks to its body contouring and medium feel support (we rated it 6/10 in our Helix Dusk Luxe mattress review). However, if you’re a hot sleeper, we’d suggest opting for the Avocado Green mattress, below. Enter code TOMS27 and you’ll get 27% off in the Helix Black Friday sale plus a free bedding bundle, bringing a queen down to $1,732.54 (was $2,373.33), and you’ll get a 100-night sleep trial, 10-15 year warranty, and free shipping. We don’t expect the discount to increase, so it’s worth taking advantage of as soon as possible.

Avocado Green: was from $1,399 $1,189 at Avocado
While the Avocado is rated as our best organic mattress, as well as being one of the best for stomach sleepers. This mattress is ACA endorsed and in our Avocado Green mattress review we reported superior comfort for stomach sleeping, thanks to the firmer feel. Unlike the Helix, the Avocado is available in firm, medium and plush. Currently there’s 15% off, bringing a queen down to $1,699 (was $1,999), and you’ll get better perks than Helix, with a 1-year trial, 25-year warranty and free shipping. It’s still a premium price, so if you’re shopping on a budget, consider the Siena below.

Siena Memory Foam mattress: was from $529 from $189 at Siena
The Siena is a fantastic option for those shopping on a budget (in fact it’s our best cheap mattress). The firm feel of this bed, we agreed 8.5/10 in our Siena Memory Foam mattress review, will keep your spine aligned when stomach sleeping, as well as offering a little give around key pressure points. If you prefer a more luxury feel, opt for the Helix Dusk Luxe. With up to 60% off, a queen is now $379 (was $769) which is better than last year’s Black Friday sale, and you’ll get a 180-night sleep trial, 10-year warranty, and free shipping and returns.

Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt: was from $1,699 now from $1,499
The Tempur-Adapt is one of the best mattresses for pressure relief, featuring over 1,000 springs and ergonomic support. It also has a comfy cradling foam layer. Right now, you can save $200 on this mattress, with a queen size going for $1,999 (was $2,199), bringing it down to the cheapest price we’ve seen this year. If you’re looking for a cheaper alternative, you can try the Leesa Original, which is currently $1,049 for a queen.

Helix Midnight: was from $699 now from $932 at Helix Sleep
The Helix Midnight made our list of the best mattresses for side sleepers but it’s also a fantastic choice for back sleepers thanks to its outstanding lumbar support. A queen is currently $999 (was $1,332) which is a fantastic price, but not the cheapest we’ve seen it for this year. Helix offered deeper discounts during its Prime Day sale, so we could see it drop further in Black Friday sales. Helix offers free delivery, a 100-night sleep trial, and a 15-year warranty with its mattresses, so you can rest assured that your purchase is well-protected.

Plank Firm: was from $749 now from $524.30
If you want the ultimate firm sleep that will help correct your posture, we recommend the Plank Firm which is currently $932.40 for a queen (was $1,332). This is the firmest all-foam mattress on the market right now and is one of the best for spinal alignment. The current discount is 30% off, which is slightly lower than the regular 25% discount we’ve seen throughout the year. We reckon this is the lowest price we’ll see for the Plank this year. If you want a cheaper alternative, you can try the DreamCloud Hybrid, which starts at just $419 (queen for $665).

Saatva RX mattress: from $1,995 $1,695 at Saatva
The Saatva RX is our best mattress for back pain and has been crafted specifically to ease chronic back ailments. During our Saatva RX mattress review, our lead tester with mild scoliosis found a marked improvement in her pain when sleeping on this bed. There’s $400 off the RX in our exclusive Saatva Black Friday mattress sale, which brings the price of a queen down to $2,895 (was $3,295). Although we have seen it slightly cheaper ($2,801 in mid-Oct), this is an excellent price that we can’t see being beaten any time soon.

DreamCloud Luxury Hybrid Mattress : from $1,130 from $419 at DreamCloud
If you like the sound of the Saatva RX but have a smaller budget, the DreamCloud is an excellent alternative. Granted, this 50% off DreamCloud Black Friday mattress sale is one we’re used to seeing but it’s still exceptional value all year-round and brings the price of a queen down to $665 (was $1,613.) It comes in one firmness option that, during our DreamCloud mattress review, our tester rated it as 7/10. If you’re looking for customizable firmness options, opt for the Nolah (below) instead.

Nolah Evolution 15 mattress: from $1,499 from $974 at Nolah
The Nolah Evolution 15 mattress is our top choice for those with lower back pain, thanks to its zoned lumbar support and customizable firmness options. In our Nolah Evolution 15 mattress review, our lead tester rated this top-rated hybrid mattress highly for its motion isolation and temperature regulation, but felt that edge support was a little weak (opt for the Saatva RX if a sturdy edge is important to you). Right now, a queen is $1,624 (was $2,499), which is an excellent price, plus you’ll get two free pillows thrown in.

Big Fig Mattress: from $1,499 $999 at Big Fig
Offering sturdy support for plus-sized back and stomach sleepers, with third-party durability testing to avoid the dreaded sag, the Big Fig is one of the best mattresses for heavy people. The current $500 off Black Friday sale is a rare chance for a generous saving — we’re used to seeing $350 off. Right now a queen is $1,399 (was $1,899) and we predict this is the best deal we’ll see this year. If you have a smaller budget, try the Titan Plus below.

Titan Plus Mattress: from $699 $489.30 at Titan
The Titan Plus Mattress is the rare specialist mattress for bigger bodies that doesn’t come at a premium price. In the 30% off sale, this firm and supportive mattress is just $874.30 for a queen, reduced from $1,249. Always competitively priced, this deal is a step above the usual 25% off, matching the best price of the year. The firmer feel might be too hard for side sleepers — if budget allows, consider the WinkBed Plus below.

WinkBed Plus Mattress: from $1,349 $1,049 at WinkBed
Our WinkBed Mattress review team found this hand-crafted model delivers ample support and the best luxury mattress experience for sleepers weighing over 250lbs. WinkBed’s evergreen sale reduces a queen Plus to $1,699 from $1,999. We don’t predict anything better for Black Friday, but this sumptuous specialist bed is still worth shopping. For those on a tighter budget, the Titan Plus above is a comfortable alternative.

Sleep Number iLE Limited Edition 360 smart bed: from $4,899 from $2,449.50 at Sleep Number
From the leading smart bed brand, the iLE Limited Edition smart bed regulates temperature through its Climate360 feature. Via a mobile app, you can adjust temperature on each bed side, making it a great choice for hot sleepers who share a bed. The mattress tracks and adjusts your temperature through the night to keep you at an optimal sleep climate. There is 50% off in Sleep Number’s Black Friday closeout sale, bringing a queen to $2,749.50 (was $5,499). While this is an outstanding deal, you still pay a premium for the smart technology here. If you’re shopping for something less tech-savvy, consider the Saatva below.

Saatva Latex Hybrid Mattress: from $1,595 $1,195 at Saatva
We believe the Saatva Latex Hybrid Mattress is the best cooling mattress from Saatva. It features breathable, moisture-wicking material along with naturally hypoallergenic Talalay latex. So, if you're tired of hot flushes and want luxury comfort, this is the deal for you. The latex offers body contouring and pressure relief — a great mattress for all side sleepers and anyone experiencing back and joint pain. A queen is now $1,995 (was $2,395) in Saatva’s Black Friday sale, which is a rare discount and great value for money considering its plush comfort and cooling prowess. But if the budget doesn’t stretch, find Zinus’ budget cooling mattress deal below.

Zinus Ultra Cooling Green Tea Mattress: from $699 from $449 at Zinus
The Zinus Ultra Cooling Green Tea is the cooler upgrade of the Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam mattress complete with a gel-infused layer and cool-to-touch, moisture-wicking cover. It offers hugging comfort and contouring pressure relief, making it a great budget buy for hot-running side sleepers. Unlike other brands, Zinus doesn’t run evergreen sales but, as we’re approaching Black Friday, you can get 44% off right now bringing a queen to $499 (was $899). If you prefer a firmer foam sleep surface, we recommend the Puffy Cloud Mattress.
