I've been covering Black Friday deals since 2007. A lot has changed since then, but one thing remains the same: Black Friday is hands-down the best time of the year to make all of your major purchases.
Personally, I've taken advantage of Black Friday deals to buy my first OLED TV, a MacBook Air, new workout apparel, and new Alexa speakers. This year I plan to purchase a new Mac mini (M4) and a new monitor. All this to say — if you like saving money, now is the ideal time to buy just about anything.
But I understand that with so many sales and ads promising the "lowest prices of the year," it can be very easy to lose track of what you want. It's overwhelming even for me, and I've been tracking Black Friday deals for over a decade. So on this live blog I along with the Tom's Guide team will be tracking the best Black Friday deals on the items we're most excited about. Whether it's our favorite TV of 2024 or the best cheap running shoes for your buck, these are the items we're recommending to our friends and family.
As for today's top deals, Black Friday is nothing without some serious console deals and right now Walmart has PS5 consoles on sale from $374. These are the cheapest prices I've seen all year for Sony's console and the sale includes bundles, accessories, games, and more.
iPhones are also hot this Black Friday and Amazon has the iPhone 16 on sale for just $0.01. Yes, that's right — you can get any iPhone 16 model for just a penny. You'll need to sign up to Boost Mobile's Infinite Access for iPhone plan, which includes unlimited talk/text/data for just $65/month. Even better, there's no need to trade-in an old phone.
These are just some of the Black Friday deals that are catching my eyes right now. So before you stuff that turkey in the oven, make sure to bookmark this page and check back regularly as we bring you all of the deals that matter.

My Favorite Deals Now
Disney+/Hulu/Max bundle: was $51 now $29 per month @ Disney Plus
Right now, you can get this bundle, including Disney+, Hulu and Max for just $29 per month. That's a $21 or 42% saving over standard. This is the no-ads plan, but you can also get a cheaper plan with adds for $16 per month, down from $29.
There a ton of PS5 deals this Black Friday, but this one has to be one of my favorites. It includes the PS5 Slim Console (with Disc) and Call of Duty Black Ops 6 for $494. It knocks a sizable $75 off. In our Call of Duty Black Ops 6 review, we called it another solid entry in the long-running shooter series. Its excellent multiplayer suite is the biggest draw.
Lululemon: apparel from $9 @ Lululemon
Shop Lululemon's 'We Made Too Much' section with apparel and accessories from $9. You'll find headbands, sneakers, t-shirts and more. Also included are the ever-popular Align leggings and Scuba hoodies.
Ninja appliances: deals from $24 @ Walmart
I own a Ninja coffee maker and a Ninja Combi multicooker. Both appliances are easy to use and offer top-notch performance. All this to say that I'm a big Ninja appliance fan and right now Walmart is knocking up to 40% off select Ninja kitchen appliances. The sale includes air fryers, ice cream makers, coffee machines, blenders, and more. After discount, prices start from $24. For instance, you can get the Ninja Creami for $149 (pictured, was $199). We said it's one of the best ice cream makers you can get churning out delicious batches of homemade ice cream.
Galaxy S24 Ultra: up to $800 off w/ trade-in @ Samsung
Samsung's premium phone features a 6.8-inch AMOLED QHD+ 120Hz display, Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, 12GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage. On the camera front, you get a 200MP main, 12MP ultrawide, 50MP (5x telephoto) and 10MP (3x telephoto). You also get a 12MP front camera. In our Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra review we said the Editor's Choice phone sets new records in key areas such as battery life (16:45), screen brightness and processing performance. We also like the phone's AI capabilities, which are intuitive to use and can help save you time.
Walmart Plus is a subscription service that offers a variety of perks including unlimited free delivery, fuel discounts at more than 2,000 Walmart/Murphy USA fuel stations, and access to Paramount+. Priced at $49 per year, it's now 50% off and at its lowest price ever.
Hulu w/ ads 1 year: $1 per month @ Hulu
We think Hulu is the ideal streaming service for new TV shows thanks to its expansive TV collection and strong original programming, although there are frequent commercials. Right now, Hulu is offering a 12-month subscription for just 99¢ per month, down from $9.99 per month. That's 90% off and a saving of $108!
REI clearance sale: up to 50% off @ REI
From Patagonia to The North Face, REI is knocking up to 50% off major brands during its latest clearance sale. After discount, prices start as low as $7. It's one of the biggest clearance sales I've seen from REI all year.
Alexa device sale: deals from $17 @ Amazon
It wouldn't be Black Friday without a proper Alexa device sale. Right now, Amazon has multiple Alexa-powered devices on sale from $17. The sale includes Echo speakers, Blink cameras, Fire TV Sticks, and more. Many of Amazon's Echo speakers are Prime Day cheap and include a free smart light bulb.
Gaming PC sale: deals from $699 @ Dell
Some of the best gaming PCs we've reviewed are now on sale during Dell's Black Friday sale. The sale includes laptops, desktops, and monitors on sale from $699. As part of the sale, you can get the Alienware Aurora R16 (pictured) from $1,199. In our Alienware Aurora R16 review, we said the Editor's Choice rig is a gaming powerhouse with powerful components and enhanced cooling technology.
Shark appliances: deals from $49 @ Walmart
Walmart is knocking up to 40% off select Shark appliances. The sale includes robot vacs, blow dryers, handheld vacs, and more. After discount, prices start from $49. For instance, you can get the Shark Matrix Robot Vacuum for $249 (pictured, $50 off). It features LiDAR vision/mapping to accurately clean your entire home.
PS5
Sony's second-generation virtual reality headset takes full advantage of the power of the PS5 to deliver a level of immersion never before seen on a gaming console. The PSVR 2 comes complete with two Sense Controllers, and this epic discount brings it to its lowest price yet.
This is one of the least expensive PS5 consoles you'll find. This Digital model has no disc drive, but otherwise it includes the PS5 console with Fortnite freebies such as an Outfit, Back Bling, Pickaxe, Wrap, Drum Instrument, Boost, Wheels, Trail and 1,000 V-Bucks.
The PS5 represents the pinnacle of Sony's gaming platform to date and offers a near-unbeatable library of must-play games, and the smaller PS5 Slim is the same great console in a slimmer form factor with a larger 1TB SSD. This Fortnite Cobalt Star bundle includes an Outfit, Back Bling, Pickaxe, Wrap, Drum Instrument, Boost, Wheels, Trail and 1,000 V-Bucks. The standalone console (without the Fortnite freebies) is also available for $424.
This PS5 bundle includes the PS5 Digital Slim with two DualSense controllers. One controller is white, whereas the other is in black. It's $90 cheaper than buying the your second controller separately.
This is an epic bundle in that it includes the PS5 Slim (1TB) with two white DualSense controllers. If you were planning on buying a second controller, this bundle saves you $95.
PS5 games sale: deals from $13 @ Walmart
Walmart is offering dozens of discounts on all things PS5 related. You can save on consoles, accessories, video games, storage, and more. For instance, right now Walmart has PS5 games on sale from $13. Titles on sale include Battlefield 2042, Spider Man Miles Morales, Star Wars Jedi Survivor, and more.
After more than a decade of waiting, EA returned to the world of NCAA football in the appropriately titled College Football 25. And this simulation of college football was worth the weight. Offering a slightly more arcade-style pace than its Madden sibling, and letting you play as the biggest schools in the country, it lived up to all those years of anticipated.
Phones
iPhone 16: $0.01 w/ Boost Mobile @ Amazon
Top-of-the-line iPhones cost a fortune, but Boost Mobile is running a deal through Amazon where you can get Apple's latest flagship for a penny when you purchase it with a Boost Infinite plan. Boost Infinite is a membership plan for iPhone users. For $65/month, you get unlimited talk, text, and 5G data. Plus, you'll get a free iPhone 16. After 12 consecutive monthly payments, members can upgrade to the latest iPhone model at no extra cost. There is no trade-in requirement to join, which means you can keep your current iPhone or sell it to a third party.
Galaxy sale: up to $1,500 off @ Samsung
Samsung is having a huge sale on its entire Galaxy line. For instance, you can get up to $750 off its Galaxy S24 Ultra with trade-in or $200 off with no trade. You can also save up to $800 on the Galaxy Z Flip 6 or up to $1,500 off the Galaxy Z Fold 6 with trade-in.
Save $500 on the price of a Google Pixel 9 at Mint Mobile, plus grab yourself an unlimited plan for just $15 a month. Like all Mint plans, this deal also includes unlimited calls and texts, 5G, and tethering at no extra cost. Your phone will also automatically unlock after 60 days, letting you move to any carrier you like once your plan ends.
iPhone 16 Pro Max: get a $250 gift card @ Visible
Visible is giving you a $250 gift card when you buy the iPhone 16 Pro Max. That could be spent on paying for an entire year's worth of unlimited service if you opt to pay annually, which would be $275. Meaning, this deal practically makes it only $25 out of your pocket to have service.
iPhone 16 Pro: free Apple Watch + iPad w/ unlimited @ Verizon
Get up to two extra devices with your new iPhone with this deal. Just make sure to click the "Show me options for this offer next" checkbox before moving on from the first page. You can pick from an 10th-gen iPad, Apple Watch Series 10 or Apple Watch SE 2nd gen, although be aware that these are all cellular models, and can only be bought with their own unlimited data contracts.
The best cheap phone is getting a much deserving discount for Black Friday. Best Buy has the charming unlocked version of the Pixel 8a for as low as $299 when you choose the option to connect it to a wireless carrier. That's almost half off the Pixel 8a's price, making it hard to pass up on.
This small but powerful flagship Pixel offers some of the smartest cameras and software features around, with this Amazon discount making it the more affordable default price of a standard Pixel.
Amazon's Black Friday deal on the Pixel 9 Pro XL gives you an instant $250 off the cost of the phone, which makes the phone much more satisfying to buy at $849; versus its usual cost of $1,099. Best of all, the discount is instant and doesn't require any trade-ins of any kind.
Apparel
Adidas sale: deals from $6 @ Amazon
The Adidas Store at Amazon is offering a wide variety of Black Friday deals on men's/women's/children's sweat pants, hoodies, socks, water bottles and more. Note that the Adidas Store is offering an early access sale for members (it's free to join) with similar prices on different styles.
Price check: deals from $6 @ Adidas
Amazon Essentials apparel: deals from $9 @ Amazon
Amazon is knocking up to 50% off its line of Amazon Essentials apparel. The sale includes shorts, sweatshirts, jogger pants, t-shirts, socks and more. Most Amazon Essentials apparel is already priced aggressively, so it's rare to see further markdowns.
I'm a sucker for an extra-cozy beanie, especially one with retro charm. Roomy, soft, stylish and of course, warm, the REI Trailmade Beanie is ready to be your wintertime domepiece staple for just ten smackeroos. The only color on sale is burgundy — but I think that's the best one anyway.
Skechers shoes/apparel: from $11 @ Amazon
Amazon is having a massive Skechers sale. The sale includes sneakers and apparel for men, women, and children on sale from $11. Skechers sales can usually be found year-round, but this Black Friday sale is one of the biggest we've seen.
Crocs sale: Crocs from $17 @ Amazon
Amazon is knocking up to 50% off select men's, women's, and children's Crocs. The sale includes all-terrain clogs, slip-resistant clogs, sandals, and more. In most cases, it beats the direct sale from Crocs.com, but the styles on sale are different.
Patagonia sale: deals from $16 @ Patagonia
Hurry! Patagonia is knocking up to 50% off select men's, women's, and children's apparel during its latest sale. The sale includes fleece jackets, hoodies, trucker hats, pants, and sweatshirts. There are also a few off-season items on sale such as shorts and t-shirts. After discount, prices start from $16 and beat similar sales at REI and Backcountry.
These Anytime Casual Shorts are a winner for outdoor wear. Featuring Columbia’s Omni-Shade and Omni-Shield technology, these shorts repel moisture and protect your skin from the sun. They’ll keep clean and dry no matter the weather conditions. Just hurry, as only a few sizes are left in stock.
These golf pants are incredibly comfortable. The pants are soft and comfy even if you don't play golf. They're stylish and look like dress pants but feel like athletic pants. With more than half off the regular price, you really can't go wrong with these.
Cozy up in the warmth of this sweatshirt that's ideal whether you're hanging around the house or hauling building materials. The versatile layer has an incredibly soft, comfortable feel that’s equally tough and durable.
Amazon has these Levi's 541 Athletic Fit Jeans on sale from $28. There's a huge range of color options, ranging from 'Funkify' (denim light wash) to 'Caraway' (a warm ochre). There are also Stretch options if you prefer your jeans with some extra give, and 'Big and Tall' sizes. They're an incredibly popular buy on Amazon, boasting a 4.5 star rating from over 27,000 reviews.
The Nike Dri-Fit One leggings are versatile and reliable, with a high waist and non-sheer fabric for full coverage. Dri-Fit technology wicks sweat, keeping you cool and dry through any workout. Plus, they feature two drop-in side pockets and a pocket at the waistband so you can keep your items close while you work out.
Stylish, practical and 50% off is a great combination when it comes to name-brand outerwear. And this chic Adidas running jacket is still available in a wide range of sizes via REI. At least, for now.
Adidas Own The Run Base Jacket (women's): was $90 now $44
I had to do a double-take when I saw the price of this sporty-cool women's running jacket with classic adidas styling. Featuring a zippered chest pocket, built-in hood, bungee cord hem and windproof design, it's both sleek and highly functional. Plus, it's available in all sizes.
Specifically designed for intense training, this sweat-wicking long sleeve will allow you to work out comfortably thanks to its relaxed top that won't stick to sweaty skin. It's also quick-drying so no need to worry about sweat stains post-workout.
This is the men's version of the shirt listed above, except it features a baggier fit. The shirt can be worn by itself or paired under a vest — letting you cover up before and after the gym — or wear it throughout your work out. It' also great to throw on during rest days.
TVs
TV sale: deals from $59 @ Best Buy
Best Buy has smart TVs on sale for as low as $59. Keep in mind, the cheap TVs tend to be smaller, 1080p models (which are more suitable for a children's room or guest room). However, the sale also includes larger sets. These are among the cheapest TVs we've seen from Best Buy. By comparison, Amazon is offering a similar sale with prices from $59.
Price check: from $59 @ Amazon | from $74 @ Walmart
The Hisense U6N is a great budget TV. It doesn't currently hold the crown for the best TV of 2024, but it does make for a value option under the $600 mark and comes equipped with Motion Rate 240 so games and sports look fantastic on the display. Of course, both Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos come included and Google TV means you're never without content to enjoy. Plus, this TV qualifies for a free copy of NBA2K25 for Xbox or PS5.
Finding a name-brand 70-inch TV at this price point is very rare. However, Walmart currently has the LG UQ70 series TV on sale for $498. Aside from its giant screen, it features LG's a5 Gen5 AI Processor for upscaling regular content to 4K. You also get HDR10/HLG support and built-in support for Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa, Apple AirPlay, and HomeKit.
The B4 is LG's entry-level OLED TV for 2024, but an entry level OLED will still look better than most other TV types. It's not as bright as the LG G4, but it should hold up in most living rooms thanks to the built-in benefits of OLED contrast. The B4 is particularly good for gamers, as nearly all features found on the higher-end LG C4 and G4 are still found on the B4. You don't see OLED TVs from a high-end brand like LG for this price too often, it's definitely a good time to jump in.
TCL always has some incredible TV deals but its QM7 is a great deal this Black Friday. TCL teamed up not only with the NFL but also Call of Duty to make its 2024 TVs the most apt for motion processing and it shows. With its new QD-Mini-LED technology, the QM7 pulls out all the stops and comes equipped with the latest HDR certifications on one of the brightest panels yet.
The C4 is LG's current flagship OLED TV. It's powered by LG's A9 processor and features a 120Hz panel, Dolby Vision/ HDR10/HLG support, built-in Amazon Alexa, four HDMI 2.1 ports and Apple AirPlay 2 support. It's also one of the few OLED TVs that can natively accept a 144Hz input from a PC. In our LG C4 OLED TV review, we said content looked colorful and dazzlingly bright on the new C4 series. It's the best version we've seen of the company's top-selling OLED TV range. Note: Amazon is running a similar sale.
48" for $996
55" for $1,096
65" for $1,397
77" for $2,099
83" for $3,366
Our Samsung QN90D Neo QLED review said this is the best QLED TV you can buy. It's incredibly bright, with gorgeous colors and strong contrast. It's also a great gaming TV, with a quick response time and access to Samsung's Gaming Hub. You also get HDR10/HDR10+/HLG support, a 144Hz refresh rate and 4 HDMI 2.1 ports. It made our list of the best TVs in 2024.
The Samsung S85D is a well-rounded OLED TV that features all of the latest technology, including Dolby Atmos support and a 120Hz refresh rate. It's built on one of the best AI upscaling chips and leverages Samsung's Tizen OS that has cloud gaming services baked right into the TV. The S85D pulls out all the stops without costing a high premium, making it a stellar gift this holiday season.
Price check: $999 @ Best Buy
The S90D is the most affordable Samsung OLED in 2024, and right now, nearly every size in the series is on sale. The two smallest sizes in the series, the 42- and 48-inch models, are often used as monitors, and for good reason: The S90D is loaded with just about every gaming feature you could want, including VRR, FreeSync, and support for 4K gaming at 120Hz or 144Hz across all four of its HDMI 2.1 inputs. (Note: The 55-, 65-, and 77-inch versions of the S90D feature quantum dots for better brightness and color volume than what you'll find on typical WOLED displays.)
Other sizes on sale:
55": was $1,797 now $1,297 @ Amazon
65": was $2,197 now $1,397 @ Amazon
77": was $3,297 now $2,197 @ Amazon
I bought an LG OLED TV two Black Fridays ago and it remains one of my favorite tech buys of all time. The B3 is last year's model, but here's why I'm recommending it It's still an amazing TV. In our LG B3 OLED review, we called it an amazing value with strong color, low input lag, and a bevy of other cool features. It uses a 120Hz refresh rate on a 4K resolution that's optimized with LG's alpha 7 gen 6 chip. VRR and four HDMI 2.1 ports means this OLED is ripe for the PS5 Pro. And don't let its age or more budget pricing fool you, as the B3 still sports premium performance, most notable in HDR.
The Bravia 8 is Sony's newest OLED TV, and while it doesn't pack as bright of a picture as some of the other options on sale right now, it's nevertheless a stunning TV if what you're looking for is an accurate presentation. This OLED's sleek, accommodating design and its sensational picture processing make it a great choice for those shopping for a high-class home theater experience. Its gaming enhancements (including 4K/120Hz support) are limited to just a pair of HDMI 2.1 inputs, so dedicated gamers might want to take a harder look at a discounted OLED from LG or Samsung. For cinephiles and general A/V enthusiasts, however, the Bravia 8 is a stellar option.
Other sizes on sale:
65": was $2,499 now $1,698 @ Amazon
The B4 is LG's entry-level OLED TV for 2024. The 77-inch version originally launched at around $3,400 and dropped to around $2,000 a few weeks ago. Today, you can land this extra-large OLED for even less. It's not as bright as the LG G4, but it should hold up in most living rooms thanks to the built-in benefits of OLED contrast. The B4 is particularly good pick for gamers, as nearly all of the gaming-related features featured on the higher-end LG C4 and G4 are still found on the B4, including four HDMI 2.1 inputs, ALLM, VRR, and FreeSync. This is the TV to get if you want to save as much money as possible on an OLED TV above 65 inches.
The LG G4 is our pick for the best OLED TV you can buy in 2024. It features the second generation of LG's much-lauded Micro Lens Array (MLA) technology, which allows the G4 to get much brighter than traditional OLED displays. Being a flagship LG TV, the G4 comes with a laundry list of A/V- and gaming-related features, including a full slate of HDMI 2.1 inputs that support 4K gaming at 120Hz or 144Hz, VRR, FreeSync, G-Sync compatibility, and LG's Game Optimizer mode. It's packed to the brim with useful features, looks jaw-dropping across all content types, and is currently on sale for a lower price than what I was expecting to see on Black Friday.
Other sizes on sale:
65": was $3,399 now $2,296 @ Amazon
At a whopping 100-inch, the Hisense U76N ULED is a monster to behold. It leverages some exciting new specs, most tantalizing of all being gaming-centric proponents like a 144Hz refresh rate and Dolby Vision Gaming support for cinematic experiences at over 60fps. Several other enhancements, like WiFi 6e, Google TV OS, and IMAX Enhanced, make it the perfect entertainment solution and an utter steal.
Mattresses
Nectar's flagship memory foam is on sale from $349 (twin). The previous version of this excellent mid-range mattress topped out best memory foam mattress guide, and we expect this new version to boast all the excellent features that made it a winner. Our Nectar Original Memory Foam mattress review praised its good balance of softness and support, as well as its excellent cooling and value. Because it's on the firmer side of medium-firm, we recommend it to stomach and back sleepers of any weight, plus average-weight side sleepers. It contours gently, but doesn't suck you down into the mattress like a Tempur-Pedic bed would. You'll get some great benefits with this mattress too, including a 365-night trial, lifetime warranty, and free shipping and returns.
The Sleep Number c2 Smart Bed is not a memory foam bed, but instead, it uses air chambers to cradle and comfort your body. Each side of the Sleep Number c2 Smart Bed can be independently adjusted for comfort, firmness, and support. Via the Sleep Number app, you can also view how well you slept and track personalized insights for better sleep. After discount, the twin is $599 (was $899), whereas the queen costs $999 (was $1,299). The bed comes with a 100-night trial and 15-year limited warranty.
Casper is cutting up to 40% off select mattresses during its latest mattress sale. The Casper One Mattress is the updated version of its now discontinued Original Mattress. The new 11-inch bed has four layers of premium foam, which includes a layer of Breathe Flex Foam designed to promote air flow and add a little bounce to the mattress. After discount, the Casper Original Mattress costs $599 for a twin size (was $749), whereas the queen costs $799 (was $999).
The Nolah Original 10" is the company's most affordable option, but don't let its budget price fool you. It offers long-term durability, pressure relief, and optimal cooling. In our Nolah Original 10 mattress hands on, we said it's great if you sleep on your side and like the hugging sensation of memory foam mattresses. Use coupon "TOMSGUIDE50" to take an extra $50 off sale prices. After discount, the twin costs $649 (was $999), whereas the queen costs $942 (was $1,449). During checkout, add "TOMSGUIDE50" as your coupon to get this price.
If you love the sound of the Saatva Classic (above) but have a smaller budget, The DreamCloud hybrid is our top alternative recommendation. All of the testers for our DreamCloud mattress review loved sleeping on this hybrid, noting that while it does need a couple of weeks' breaking in, after that it's one of the comfiest beds you'll sleep on. We rate The DreamCloud as this year's best mattress in a box for all budgets, with a queen size costing $665 right now. That price has been in place since last Black Friday, thanks to a monthly DreamCloud mattress sale offering up to 50% off. Considering The DreamCloud is over $1,000 cheaper than the Saatva Classic, you're still getting a lot of mattress for your money here. The benefits are nearly as good too, with a lifetime warranty and year's sleep trial. DreamCloud only comes with free standard shipping though – Saatva's free White Glove Delivery includes installation and the team will take away your packaging and old mattress and base.
The Purple Mattress is one of the company's least expensive mattresses, yet it still comes with the company's patented Purple Grid mattress tech. Under this 2-inch grid are two layers of high-density comfort foam. In our Purple mattress review, we found it was better at relieving pressure and more comfortable than typical foam mattresses or airbeds. It's dynamic grid also delivers a supportive sleeping experience with the sensation of floating on air. After discount, you can get the twin for $759 (was $999) or the queen for $1,234 (was $1,499).
The Sapira Hybrid is one of Leesa's best hybrid mattresses, made from premium materials and assembled in America. In our Leesa Sapira Hybrid mattress review we rated it as a medium to medium-firm mattress and think it's suitable for lightweight side sleepers. It also performed exceptionally well when testing for motion isolation, which will appeal to restless sleepers (or those just sharing a bed with one). However, temperature regulation and edge support were merely satisfactory, so consider upgrading to the Chill model at up to $200 more. After discount, you can get the twin for $944 (was $1,349) or the queen for $1,399 (was $1,999).
Topping our best mattress for side sleepers guide, the Helix Midnight Luxe mattress offers super-plush cushioned support. The premium hybrid mattress is the newer, more expensive sibling to the original Helix Midnight bringing a plusher sleep surface and enhanced lumbar support. After discount, you can get the twin on sale for $1,030 (was $1,373) or the queen on sale for $1,780 (was $2,373). Plus, you'll get a bedding bundle worth over $300 with your mattress purchase.
The Birch Natural Mattress is the best overall organic mattress we've tested. It has an organic cotton cover and it's made from naturally breathable wool and Talalay latex. In our Birch Natural Mattress review, we found this mattress is firm yet bouncy and supports you in every sleeping position (back, stomach, side). Plus, the Talalay latex helps you feel cooler while you sleep. However, if you share a bed with a restless sleeper you'd be better off with the Luxe version because it offers better motion isolation. The twin is now down to $1,030 (was $1,373), with the queen to $1,405 (was $1,873). Plus, you get two free pillows with your mattress purchase.
The Saatva Classic is a handcrafted innerspring hybrid that looks and feels like a high-end hotel bed. This is the best hybrid mattress we've tested and our top recommendation over all for every type of sleeper. The Classic comes in three firmness levels and two different heights (11.5" or 14.5"), so it's customizable. We awarded it a near-perfect score in our Saatva Classic mattress review, praising the pressure relief for aching joints, and lumbar support for less back pain. Right now a queen size Classic costs $1,781 (was $2,095), which is more expensive than the best price of 2024: $1,695 for a queen. We predict that the cost of Saatva mattresses will drop again for Black Friday, so consider waiting for a better Saatva mattress sale if you don't need to buy urgently. If you do need a new mattress now and want the Saatva Classic, then $1,781 is still good value for a handcrafted mattress made with premium materials. You'll also get a year's sleep trial, lifetime warranty and free mattress installation with old bed removal.
