Presidents' Day is the next blockbuster mattress sales event and this year it takes place on Monday 17 February. It's a great time to buy a top-rated bed for less and we expect to see discounts on all of 2025's best mattresses with options for a wide range of sleepers and budgets.
Our team has been tracking the Presidents' Day mattress sales for years and we expect the official deals to start arriving towards the end of January. So you don't have long to wait to get a good discount on a comfy new mattress. Some retailers like MattressFirm and Amazon have already started rolling out deals, and we've listed our best picks here.
We'll be updating this guide regularly with the best Presidents' Day sales as they arrive, but if you can't wait and need to buy a mattress now, we've also included below our top picks from this month's mattress sales. There are some good deals on hybrid and memory foam mattresses today, with prices from $199.
Today's best mattress sales
We don't expect to see any official Presidents' Day mattress sales until late January or early February, but even so there are some great sales live today. Even though these are deals we see most months they're great value for money and worth considering if you need to buy a new mattress now.
- Saatva: $300 off orders worth $1,000+
- DreamCloud: Up to 50% off mattresses
- Nectar: Up to 66% off bundles
- Helix: 20% off + free pillows
- Bear: 35% off + free pillows
Should you wait for a Presidents' Day mattress deal?
Whether or not to wait for Presidents' Day sales to buy a mattress depends on how urgently you need one. If you need one ASAP, we recommend shopping one of the deals feature above as these are excellent value and unlikely to get much cheaper come actual Presidents' Day. These include DreamCloud, Nectar, Bear Mattress, and Siena Sleep.
However if you're shopping for a luxury mattress from Saatva, Purple, Casper or Helix, we recommend waiting for Presidents' Day. That's because these brands tend to save their biggest discounts (or money off plus free gifts) for major holiday sales. So waiting a few more weeks could save you a bigger chunk of money.
What mattresses should I look for?
This depends on the type of mattress you want to buy and your budget. We expect sales on most of our top recommended options, and these are the ones we recommend considering in this year's Presidents' Day sales:
Presidents' Day mattress sales 2025: the top 3 early deals
Certain mattress retailers have already started rolling out their Presidents' Day mattress sales in preparation for the late February holiday. Here are the best deals we've found so far.
President’s Day mattress sales 2025: Our predictions
We've been tracking the Presidents' Day mattress deals for years. These are our predictions for 2025's sale based on what we've seen during previous years...
1. Early sales will start arriving late January
Throughout last year, deals for major mattress sales starting appearing up to a few weeks before the actual sale was supposed to launch (or in the case of Black Friday, a month before). As Presidents' Day isn't as well known as Black Friday, we think the earliest sales will start appearing the week commencing January 27 and into early February.
2. Most sales prices will match Black Friday
Gone are the days of deep discounts being limited to Black Friday. Many major brands like Saatva and Helix will roll out the same sales for every major sales period, meaning that if you missed out on a Black Friday sale, you could find the very same offers available this February.
3. Saatva's $400 off sale will return
Saatva is behind our best hybrid mattress of the year and currently you can save $300 on any of the brand's handmade mattresses when you spend $1,000 or more in the Saatva mattress sale.
Right now Saatva prices are at their highest but we predict that those MSRPs will drop and the discount will increase to $400, making Presidents' Day a good time to buy. This is the same approach Saatva used during all major holiday sales last year, and we expect a queen size Saatva Classic, our top pick, to drop to $1,695 for a queen (right now it's on sale for $1,799).
4. DreamCloud and Nectar sales won't change
Resident Home brands Nectar and DreamCloud are behind two of the best mattresses in a box we have tested: the DreamCloud Luxury Hybrid and the Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress. Both have been running an up to 50% off sale for over a year and right now you can save up to 66% on mattress and bed bundles too.
During Black Friday last year you could have saved an extra $100 on Nectar and DreamCloud orders worth $1,000 or more, but we doubt that discount will return for Presidents' Day 2025. So today's Nectar mattress deals and DreamCloud mattress sales contain the cheapest prices we're likely to see.
5. Helix will offer 35% off plus free bedding
Helix Sleep is another major online brand that offers frequent discounts. It's currently offering 20% off plus you'll get free pillows. We predict this discount will rise to 35% plus free pillows or even a bedding set for this year's Presidents' Day mattress sales, which is in line with what Helix did during every other major holiday sale last year.

Presidents' Day mattress sales FAQ
When do Presidents' Day mattress sales 2025 start?
Presidents' Day takes place on Monday 17 February 2025 but we expect official deals to start arriving towards the end of January and into early February. A lot of discounts will be sales we see most months simply dressed up as Presidents' Day offers, but a small handful will be genuinely cheaper compared to the average month. We'll be flagging those up in an 'editor's choice' section at the top of this guide.
Do stores run Presidents' Day mattress sales?
Major mattress stores always run Presidents' Day sales, and some of them can be as good as the mattress deals we see online. However, unlike online shopping, you'll need to physically travel to a brick-and-mortar store to see what discounts they're offering.
If you prefer in-store shopping, we encourage you to ask the sales staff the following questions to make sure you are getting a good deal and fair purchasing terms:
- What is the MSRP of this mattress?
- What is the lowest price you have sold it for recently?
- What trial period does it come with?
- What is the warranty period?
- What is your refund and exchange policy?
- Do you offer free shipping?
- Do you offer old mattress removal either for free or at a cost?
- How long does this Presidents' Day mattress deal last for?
Are Presidents' Day sales a good time to buy a mattress?
Presidents' Day is the first major retail holiday of the year. So if you're in the market for a new mattress, sheets, or bedding, Presidents Day mattress sales are where you'll find the deals.
That said, there are other times throughout the year where we see particularly strong mattress discounts. Memorial Day, July 4th, and Labor Day are also excellent opportunities to purchase a new mattress.
