I've scoured all of this weekend's mattress sales and these are the 8 deals I'd buy — prices start from $254

1. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Mattress (previous model): twin was $1,699 now $1,189.30 at Tempur-Pedic
The Tempur-Adapt is our memory foam mattress pick for sleepers with back pain, as its Tempur Material offers loads of contouring pressure relief. This deal is for the previous model, as the Tempur-Adapt lineup was revamped last year — but speaking as someone who's tried both versions, the differences here are scant. Still, a queen-size Tempur-Adapt for $1,539.30 (down from $2,199) is an excellent price for a mattress that's usually only discounted by $200-$300 off. Just know that this is a final sale item and you won't be able to return it for any reason. (You'll still get a 10-year warranty and free White Glove Delivery.)

2. DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress: twin was $1,014 now $319 at DreamCloud
The DreamCloud Hybrid is the best mattress in a box we've tested for delivering exceptional quality at an affordable price. This weekend's offer matches the lowest price we've ever seen for DreamCloud's flagship bed, with a queen on sale for just $599. While DreamCloud no longer includes the free bedding bundle, you'll still get a warranty for life plus a full year to trial it at home, risk-free. It's an unmissable deal for a mattress our testing team considers a strong all-rounder that'll please most sleepers and a suitable budget-friendly alternative to the No. 1-ranked Saatva Classic.

3. Siena Premier Hybrid Mattress: twin was $836 now $254 at Siena
If the DreamCloud above is just out of your price range, check out this budget mattress from its sibling brand, Siena. You'll be forfeiting the plush top and profound contouring of the DreamCloud, but if you fancy a firm, flat surface for back or stomach sleeping, you'll be satisfied. I'm in the process of testing this one, but my first impression of the Siena Premier Hybrid is positive. A queen-size is $424, which is a drop from the usual sale price of $499. Also included are a 180-night trial and a 10-year warranty — great perks for the cost.

4. Helix Midnight Elite Mattress: twin was $2,498.75 now $1,824.08 with code TOMS27 at Helix Sleep
Helix revamped its mattress lineup, and I had the chance to see the new Midnight models up close. The Helix Midnight Elite mattress for side sleepers is by far my favorite glow-up, as it oozes luxury while providing outstanding all-around support. A new paint job, upgraded cooling cover, and an extra boost in lumbar support make this the Helix mattress to buy if you have the cash to splash. Fortunately, with our exclusive 27% off coupon this weekend, you can save a few dollars. A queen-size Midnight Elite is $2,735 after code TOMS27 (was $3,748). It includes a 100-night trial and a forever warranty. If it's available in your ZIP code, I recommend paying for the White Glove Delivery.

5. Saatva Classic Mattress: twin from $1,399 now $1,199 at Saatva
Saatva knocks $200 to $300 off the Saatva Classic, which we've crowned the best hybrid mattress on the market. Now, we've seen deeper discounts for Saatva's popular flagship bed in recent weeks, but a queen-size at $1,799 after $300 off isn't a bad deal, either. You're still getting a lot for your money, as this handcrafted luxury hybrid comes in your choice of firmness and height, with a dedicated lumbar zone to help ease back pain. It also comes with a lifetime warranty, a 365-night trial, and free White Glove Delivery with removal of your old mattress and foundation.

6. Avocado Green Mattress: twin was from $1,399 now from $1,259 at Avocado Green
Avocado's Earth Day sale cuts 10% off sitewide — and that includes savings on our top-ranked organic mattress of the year. A queen-size Avocado Green Mattress is now $1,799 (was $1,999). It's made of organic latex, cotton, and wool for a durable, breathable bed that's also good for the environment. As-is, the mattress is on the firmer side of medium. For a softer touch, you can add a pillow-top or box-top — just know that these upgrades will potentially double the cost of the mattress. As always, you'll receive a full year to try it at home and a 25-year warranty.

7. Birch Natural Mattress: twin was $1,373.75 now $1,002.23 with code TOMS27 at Birch
For an organic mattress that's easier on the wallet than the Avocado Green, we're fans of the Birch Natural from Helix Sleep. It has more of a balanced bed feel, with a 6/10 firmness level that's accommodating for combi sleepers who can't stay put at night. The Talalay latex, organic cotton cover, and natural wool batting make for one of the most breathable mattresses we've ever slept on., too Use our exclusive code TOMS27 for 27% off, bringing the price of a queen to $1,367 (was $1,873). It comes with a 100-night trial and a lifetime warranty.

8. Bear Elite Hybrid Mattress with Celliant-Infused Cover: twin was $2,143 now $1,501 + 2 free pillows at Bear
We recommend this premium cooling mattress for most sleepers who endure hot summers or year-round night sweats. For optimal temperature control and restorative sleep, we recommend upgrading to the Celliant-infused cover, although the standard cover woven with phase change materials will also help absorb heat and moisture. That's not all — the Bear Elite comes in three firmness levels so you can tailor it to your sleep style and body type. With the Celliant cover, a queen-size costs $1,824 (was $2,605) after 30% off. It also comes with two free pillows, a 120-night trial, and a lifetime warranty.
