There are still plenty of great Black Friday mattress deals live today so you haven't missed your chance to buy a good mattress for less. The best sale prices are all still available this morning, and we've also just spotted our first Cyber Weekend exclusive deal – up to $1,500 off mattress and adjustable bed purchases at Purple (yesterday it was up to $1,000).
We expect many of these Black Friday mattress deals to roll into Cyber Monday tomorrow (we're tracking the best Cyber Monday mattress deals so far in our roundup), so you have plenty of choice available if you’re shopping for a new mattress this weekend. Black Friday sales are particularly good for people shopping for a twin mattress. Prices start from $56, with luxury sleep brand Saatva's $400 discount rolling its twin mattresses back to their cheapest price of the year.
We’re still seeing excellent deals on several mid-range cooling mattresses today, with prices returning to their lowest of the year. And if you don't mind having a past-season model then Awara, Nectar, and DreamCloud mattresses are having huge price cuts at Amazon today — we're talking all-time low prices here.
We're passionate about testing mattresses (we've tested over 50 new mattresses from the biggest brands since last Black Friday) and we've been tracking mattress sales for the last five years, so we know what a great deal looks like. Most of our selections on this page not only tick the 'great deal' box, they also come with a first-hand recommendation from our testing lab and appear in our best mattress guide.

There’s no point making a massive saving on a mattress if it isn’t right for you. So we’ll make this simple: these are the only six mattresses you need to consider. We’ve tested them all, and every single one performs extremely well for the price. (But if you really don’t find what you’re looking for here, we’ve got loads more recommendations further down the page.)
1. Saatva Classic mattress (queen): $2,095 now $1,695 at Saatva
Our review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★★ (3,600+ reviews)
Saatva’s luxury innerspring hybrid is the best mattress we’ve ever tested. We re-tested it for Black Friday and for the first time ever gave a full five-star review: it looks and feels like a high-end hotel mattress, and is a brilliant choice for most people. There are three different firmness options, so it’s easy to customize to your preferences. We slept on the popular luxury firm version, and found it to deliver excellent pressure-relief and spine-alignment, helping us achieve a deeper sleep, and reducing aches and pains in the morning. Prices in the Saatva Black Friday sale today are the same as every other major sale this year, at $995 for a twin and £1,695 for a queen, so this isn't a special deal for Black Friday — but it is good value for a luxury mattress. Plus, build quality is the best we've tested: this is a mattress that will last. The only people we don’t recommend the Classic too are bed-sharers who weigh over 600lbs (you’ll need the DreamCloud, below, instead) and anyone with chronic back pain (try the Saatva RX). It comes with free white glove delivery, and there's a year-long trial to make sure it's right — just bear in mind there's a $99 returns fee if you don't like it.
Best for: all sleepers; back pain; couples; hot sleepers; heavier bodies
Normal price: twin from $1,195
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $995 at Saatva
2. The DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress (queen): $665 at DreamCloud
Our review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★½ (8,900+ reviews)
If you like the sound of the Saatva Classic but need something more affordable, we highly recommend the DreamCloud. This mid-range hybrid innerspring is $1,000 cheaper than the Classic, but punches well above its weight. We gave it an impressive four and a half out of five stars in our DreamCloud mattress review: it’s more comfortable, supportive, and well-made than any other mattress we've slept on in this price range, bar the Nectar Classic below — and it beats many more-expensive options. It doesn’t have a new discount in the Black Friday DreamCloud sale (it's been the same price all year, unless you choose the split king model, which has a new $100 price cut on top of the standard 50% discount), you’ll struggle to find better value for money. This is the best mattress in a box we’ve slept on. Yes, it doesn’t have quite the same luxury feel as the Saatva, and it did take us a few weeks to adjust because it’s on the firmer side of medium-firm. But once we did, it became one of the most comfortable mattresses we’ve tried. It’s also an excellent choice for heavier couples because its maximum weight capacity is 1,000lbs (compared to the Saatva’s 600lbs).
Best for: most people; hot sleepers; back and hip pain; heavier bodies
Normal price: twin from $419
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $419 at DreamCloud
3. Nectar Classic Memory Foam (queen): $649 at Nectar
Our review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★½ (50,100+ reviews)
The Nectar Classic is the closest rival to the DreamCloud, and a better choice for anyone who wants to sink into their mattress and be hugged while they sleep (as opposed to sleeping near the surface). This Black Friday mattress deal isn’t new — you can buy a twin for $349 or a queen for $649 most months — but this mattress still undercuts nearly all its rivals on price. It’s the best memory foam mattress under $1,000 that we’ve tested, with excellent pressure relief and full-body support, plus surprisingly good cooling capabilities for an all-foam mattress — our hot-sleeping reviewer didn’t overheat once. As is becoming tradition, we did, very briefly, see it $50 cheaper in a flash sale at the start of November, but we don’t expect to see those prices returning today. Nectar hasn’t run flash-sale prices over Black Friday for the last few years. Like the DreamCloud, it comes with a 365-night trial period so you can make sure it’s right, and a lifetime warranty.
Best for: side sleepers, couples
Normal price: twin from $349
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $349 at Nectar
4. Siena Memory Foam Mattress (queen): $399 now $339.15 at Amazon
Our review: ★★★★
User score: ★★★★½ (2,700+ reviews)
Brand new Black Friday mattress deal alert! We reported yesterday that the Siena had a $20 price cut at Siena... Well, today there's an even bigger $60 price cut over at Amazon, with a twin down to $169.15 (was $189 earlier this week) and a queen at $339.15. These are the lowest prices we've ever seen for this top-rated budget memory foam mattress. We gave it four out of five stars in our review, calling it a "brilliant budget mattress". Despite its low price, it doesn't feel cheap, with great temperature regulation (we tested the Siena during one of the hottest summers on record and didn't overheat), superb edge support, and minimal motion transfer. It's firmer than advertised though: we rate it 8 out of 10. Our testers adjusted to it over the one-month review period and found it to be comfortable, but don’t expect a traditional memory foam feel — there’s very little ‘hug’ here. If that’s what you’re after, choose the Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam below, instead.
Best for: stomach sleepers, hot sleepers, restless sleepers
Normal price: twin from $199
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $169.15 at Amazon
5. Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam (queen): $219.98 at Amazon
Our review: ★★★½
User score: ★★★★½ (158,000+ user reviews)
This isn’t a new price for Black Friday: this entry-level all-foam mattress has cost $188.99 for a twin at Amazon for the last few months. But we’ve included it here because if you’re looking for a budget mattress, it’s good value for money and well worth considering. We reviewed a version of this mattress with the same three layers inside (memory foam, transition foam, base foam) — just a different cover — and awarded it three and a half out of four stars. The all-foam design is basic, but the sink-in memory foam layers provide a high level of pressure relief with enough support to keep side sleepers cradled throughout the night. Motion isolation is also excellent, but temperature control could be better (if you sleep really hot, try the Bear Elite Hybrid ($1,383 for a queen at Bear with code: TOMS40 instead) and edge support is weak, so watch out if you like to sleep close to the side of the bed. There are five different thicknesses, ranging from 5-12 inches, and in typical Amazon fashion you'll need to toggle between them to get the best deal. However, we don't recommend anything thinner than 10 inches for an adult.
Best for: kids; guest bedrooms; couples
Normal price: twin from $119.99
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $119.99 at Amazon
6. The Allswell Hybrid Mattress, 10-inch (queen): $317 $284 at Walmart
Our review: ★★★★
User score: ★★★★½ (5,000+ reviews)
It's not often we see Walmart's excellent own-brand mattress below $300, but the retailer's Black Friday sale drops a queen from $317 to $284 - that's $15 cheaper than Memorial Day. This is a top-class budget mattress. We gave it 4 out of 5 stars in our review: it delivers fantastic support and it's great at isolating motion, so you're less likely to notice a partner tossing and turning. Two of our testers were so impressed with The Allswell's feel and affordability that they decided to buy one to replace their sagging foam mattress at home. It's not the best choice if you suffer from back pain, and it's not great for anyone who weighs over 200lb — in both cases you’ll need a higher-quality mattress, like the DreamCloud above. Otherwise, the Allswell offers impressive performance for the price and we highly recommend it.
Best for: all sleepers; back pain; couples; hot sleepers; heavier bodies
Normal price: twin from $217 Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $194 at Walmart
7. Helix Midnight Luxe (queen): $2.373.33 $1,732 + $330 free gifts at Helix with code: TOMS27
Our review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★½ (6,600+ reviews)
New for Black Friday: we’ve teamed up with Helix to offer Tom’s Guide readers a special 27% discount — use code: TOMS27 at checkout and you’ll get an extra 2% off the standard Helix Black Friday mattress sale, plus you’ll still get a free mattress protector, sheet and pillow set worth up to $330, as you would with the official deal. We rate the Midnight Luxe as the best mattress for side sleepers because it does a brilliant job of eliminating pressure points around your hips, shoulders and knees, which are key areas when you're lying on your side. We gave it four and a half out of five stars in our Helix Midnight Luxe review, and particularly recommend it for couples with restless partners, thanks to its excellent ability to isolate motion. If you’re looking for a bundle deal, this is the lowest price the Helix Midnight Luxe has been all year, making a queen size $50 cheaper than Labor Day and $166 lower than Black Friday last year - bargain. However, if you only need a mattress, we’ve seen the Helix Midnight Luxe cheaper: a queen dropped to $1,614 in July. For anyone with a lower budget, consider the standard Helix Midnight instead - it's a great mattress, and cheaper still at $972 (with our discount) plus two free pillows.
Best for: side sleepers; back sleepers; couples
Normal price: twin from $349
Today’s best Black Friday deal: twin from $1,002.54 at Helix

Combi-sleepers
1. Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress: twin from $1,295 now $895 at Saatva
The Memory Foam Hybrid is one of the cheapest options in the Saatva line-up — but it's a Saatva, so of course it's still luxurious. It might not offer the targeted support of the flagship Classic, but in our Saatva Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress review we found it comfortable for all sleep styles. Following our link gets you $400 off all sizes, bringing a queen down to $1,445 (was $1,845) and matching the lowest price we've seen this year.
2. Bear Original mattress: twin from $699 now $419.40 at Bear Mattress with code: TOMS40
The medium-firm feel of the Bear Original makes it a top choice for combi sleepers, with enough cushioning at the touch points but a sturdy support across the body. We also gave high marks for motion isolation during our Bear Original Mattress review, so it's a good choice if you share with a partner who can never seem to get comfortable. You can claim a 40% discount using code TOMS40, reducing a queen to $598.80 (was $998) and matching the largest saving we've seen this year.
3. Allswell Hybrid Mattress, 10-inch: twin from $217 now $194 at Walmart
The Allswell is a budget-friendly mattress that our Allswell Mattress review panel found most comfortable for back and front sleeping, but side sleepers should still get on with this medium-firm bed (especially if you add a mattress topper). While Walmart often discounts the Allswell line-up, sales on this basic model are much rarer. A queen is now just $284 (was $317) and that's the best price we've seen in a long time.
Side sleepers
1. Helix Midnight Luxe: twin from $1,373.33 $1,002 + free bedding bundle at Helix with code: TOMS27
Ranked number one in our best mattress for side sleepers guide, the Helix Midnight Luxe has a luxe pillow top design that soothes and cradles your key pressure points when you're on your side. In fact, when we re-tested the mattress to update our original Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress review, we found this medium-firm hybrid delivered more pressure relief than we initially thought. While the site's general Black Friday deal takes 25% off the mattress (reducing a queen from $2.373.33 to $1,780), our exclusive discount takes 27% off with code: TOMS27. This means a queen is now $1,732, and with either discount you'll also get $330 worth of free bedding. Benefits include a 100-night sleep trial, free shipping, and a 15-year warranty.
2. Leesa Legend Hybrid Mattress: twin from $1,899 $1,329 at Leesa
Our Leesa Legend Hybrid mattress hands-on review saw our panel try out this medium hybrid in every different sleeping position, and we unanimously agreed it was best for side sleeping thanks to its sink-in memory foam feel. Following a standard 20% discount and then an early Black Friday mattress deals of 25% discount, the Legend Hybrid now has 30% off for Black Friday. This deal takes a queen down to $1,819 (was $2,599), and Leesa also offers a 100-night sleep trial and a 10-year warranty. These are decent extras, albeit not as generous as other mattresses in this price range.
3. Original Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $399 $199 at Zinus
The Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress is one of the best cheap mattresses for great pressure relief, an important feature for side sleepers in particular. Our reviewers for our Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress review also loved its excellent motion isolation for couples and good value for money. Be aware, however, that it can sleep warm and doesn't have the best edge support. Still, with a queen at $379 (was $599), it's hard to complain. However, if you're looking for a cheaper deal on a queen, you can get a queen Zinus Green Tea Mattress for $219.98 at Amazon... but you won't have the 100-night sleep trial and 10-year warranty that Zinus offers.
Stomach sleepers
1. Helix Dusk Luxe: twin from $1,373.33 $1,002.54 + $330 free gifts at Helix with code: TOMS27
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.
2. Plank Firm mattress: twin from $749 now $524.30 at Plank
Firm on one side, extra firm on the other, the Plank Mattress promises all the support a stomach sleeper needs. This dual-sided design surprised us (in a good way) during our Plank Firm mattress hands-on and we recommend it for stomach sleepers who experience lower back pain on softer beds. While there's often 25% off, this 30% off deal is saved for special occasions, like Black Friday, and reduces a queen from $1,332 to $932.40 — we doubt you'll see it bettered any time soon.
3. Siena Memory Foam mattress: twin from $169.15 at Amazon
Offering a firm support core with decent pressure relief, the Siena is incredible value for a mattress of this quality. We were impressed with the motion isolation and temperature regulation during our Siena Memory Foam Mattress review and although at this price we doubt the long-term durability is excellent, we still think stomach sleepers will get a good few years out of it. We've hardly ever seen the price shift at Siena (for better or worse) so this Black Friday mattress deal at Amazon is something special — a queen is just $339.15, cheaper than its usual $399 sale price (and way down from the $769 "total value" on the Siena site).
Back sleepers
1. Puffy Cloud Mattress: twin from $1,849 $499 at Puffy
In our Puffy Cloud mattress review, we named this all-foam option the best memory foam mattress for people who sleep on their backs. In addition to its firm support for back sleeping, it also has excellent motion isolation and temperature regulation. However, the great temperature control of its cooling cover does make it a little slippery, and the edge support could be better. With code CYBERMONDAY, you can get a queen for $949 (MSRP: $2,299) plus free shipping, a 101-night sleep trial, and a lifetime warranty.
2. Leesa Studio Mattress: twin from $549 $384 at Leesa
Our testers for the Leesa Studio mattress hands-on review found this mid-range all-foam mattress to be surprisingly firm and supportive enough for back sleeping. Its good motion isolation means its a good choice for restless bed-sharers and provides comfort that's on par with more luxe brands. Thanks to a new 30% off Black Friday sale 9 the early Black Friday deal was 25% off), a queen is now $559 down from $799. Benefits include a 10-year warranty, 100-night sleep trial, and free delivery.
3. Layla Essential Mattress: twin from $549 $249 at Layla Sleep
Layla's cheapest bed, the Essential is under $500 for a queen, with a $300 Black Friday discount dropping the size to $399 (was $699). When testing this memory foam bed for our Layla Essential mattress review, reviewers were not only impressed with the value for money, but also the great support for back sleepers and how breathable it was for an all-foam model. The motion isolation, however, is surprisingly weak for a memory foam design. Still, if you're a back sleeper in need of an affordable mattress, this is a great choice. Benefits include a 120-night sleep trial, free shipping, and a 10-year warranty.

Hot sleepers
1. Sleep Innovations 8" Gel Memory Foam Cooling Mattress: twin from $148 now $114 at Walmart
This is a medium-firm mattress suitable for all sleeping styles, crafted from a 2" top layer of gel-memory foam which prevents overheating and a 6" layer of premium base foam for sturdy support. This Sleep Innovations gel foam mattress is best for those who prefer an adaptive bed, helping you maintain a healthy body alignment while delivering great cooling comfort. The bed comes encased in a soft knit cover which provides the perfect cozy sleep throughout the night. You can save up to $195.99 on a queen sized mattress dropping the original MSRP from $349.99 to $154 at Walmart. This is also the best Black Friday sale we have seen on the Sleep Innovation compared to the discount on the brand's official website.
2. Nectar Premier Copper: twin from $999 now $749.25 at Amazon
Nectar is a popular mattress brand in America which has also secured a top spot in our best mattress guide for all sleepers. The Premier Copper is an excellent choice for hot sleepers with its triple action cooling feature combining gel-memory foam layers with Active HD phase change material which reacts to your body temperature and a breathable copper cover which wicks away heat. This is a medium-firm bed which rates 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale and hence suits most sleepers who loves contouring comfort and adaptive support. This is the lowest price we have seen on Amazon for the Nectar Premier Copper where you can save up to $1,249 on a queen sized bed, with the MSRP dropping to $936.75. You can also enjoy a 365-night trial and lifetime warranty, so try out the bed risk-free.
3. Casper Snow Max: twin XL from $3,125 from $1,875 at Casper
We think this is a good cross between Casper's two popular mattresses. the Casper Snow and the Dream Hybrid. Compared to the other two memory foam cooling beds, this is a medium-firm mattresses with a 7-layer hybrid construction combining align memory foam, flex support coils and specialist cooling technology. This has twice the more HeatDelete bands than the base model along with the brand's signature Snow technology and a top layer of Soothe Memory foam preventing night-sweats. We recommend it most suitable for combination sleepers as it provides excellent support for all sleeping positions. Casper has now increased the Black Friday discount from 30% to 40% dropping the MSRP of a queen from $3,745 to $2,245 which is the cheapest price this year.
4. Tempur-Pedic PRObreeze Medium Hybrid Mattress: twin XL from $3,999 now $2,799 + freebies at Tempur-Pedic
Tempur-Pedic mattresses are premium beds, especially when they feature the materials and tech you'd find in the best cooling mattresses. However, the previous-gen PROBreeze is now 30% off for Black Friday, which drops the price of a queen to $3,149 (was $4,499). Sure, it's still pricey, but you'll be paying at least $1,000 less than you would for the latest Tempur-Breeze models. It also comes with $300 worth of free accessories; just add what you want to your cart and use code 300FREE to claim your discount. Your purchase will be backed by a 10-year warranty but as a closeout item, it's not eligible for returns.
Back pain
1. Saatva RX mattress: twin from $1,995 now $1,595 at Saatva
Taking the number one spot in our best mattress for back pain guide, the Saatva RX uses a unique gel-infused memory foam to offer targeted lumbar support and with a luxurius finish, it stands a cut above the rest we've tested. That's reflected in the price, with a queen $2,895 (was $3,295) in the Saatva $400 off sale. This is the best price this year on the smaller sizes, but if you're after something larger than a twin, you might want to keep your fingers crossed a 15% off sale will come around soon. If you need a new bed now, our Saatva RX Mattress review might convince you this is worth the cost.
2. Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe cooling mattress: twin from $1,199 now $839.30 at Brooklyn Bedding
Pairing pillow-top plushness with a cooler feel when you sleep, the Aurora Luxe is the best mattress for hot sleepers with back pain. We added the Cloud Pillow top for our Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe Cooling mattress review and while it does up the price, we think it's worth the investment. Brooklyn Bedding is offering 30% off for Black Friday in a deal that matches those we've seen in other major sales this year. A queen with pillow top is now $1,585.50, down from $2,265.
3. Sealy Posturepedic Hybrid Mattress: twin from $1,149 now $729 at Sealy
Sealy's Posturepedic collection has been designed to help anyone with back pain who's also looking for a mattress on a budget. Using specialty foams and responsive coils, the Posturepedic comes in two firmness levels so you can enjoy pain relief in any sleeping position. In this Black Friday deal a queen is just $799 (was $1,249) and that's the best price we've spotted this year – only $79 more than a twin.
Joint pain
1. Nolah Evolution 15 Mattress: twin from $1,499 now $924.35 at Nolah with code TOMS50OFF
The Evolution "relieves joint pressure whilst wicking away heat" — that's direct from our Nolah Evolution 15 Mattress review. Available in three firmness levels to suit every sleep style, there's 35% off the Nolah for Black Friday, but make sure to use our code TOMS50OFF to save an additional $50. This saving matches the lowest price we've seen this year (and the deal we spotted last Black Friday). A queen is now just $1,574.35, reduced from $2,499, and you'll get two free pillows as well.
2. PurpleFlex Mattress: twin from $699 now $474 at Purple
The responsive, adaptable GelFlex Grid is used across Purple mattresses, including the budget-friendly PurpleFlex. The Grid contours to the joints to relieve pressure at every point, while the open design enables the flow of air. If you can, it's worth upgrading to the thicker Purple Original, but you won't find a better priced Purple mattress that the Flex. With a queen just $949 (was $1,299), this is surprisingly affordable for such a specialist design. Purple has today increased its overall sale offer to up to $1,500 off mattresses and adjustable beds, but the twin PurpleFlex price remains the same as yesterday.
3. Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $399 now $199 at Zinus
The squishy, dense surface of the Zinus Original eases around the joints providing cushioned pressure relief for side sleepers. In our Zinus Memory Foam Mattress review this gooey comfort stood out and while we wouldn't recommend it for stomach sleepers, it's a great value mattress for joint pain. Zinus rarely discounts this affordable mattress (any further, that is), but this Black Friday brings the lowest price we've seen for a queen in a long time — just $379. Although the MSRP is $599, it's typically sold at $399.
4. Nectar Luxe Mattress: twin from $1,696 now $999 at Nectar
This new high-end all-foam mattress from Nectar earned a perfect score from our testing team. In our Nectar Luxe mattress review, we praise its balanced medium-firm feel (particularly for side and back sleepers), deep pressure relief, and top-notch motion isolation. Although it's one of the brand's top-tier mattresses, it's much more affordable than many of its luxury rivals. A queen-size Nectar Luxe is on sale right now for $1,149 (MSRP $3,424) — and that includes an extra $100 off orders over $1,000, reflected in-cart. That's the best deal we've seen for this just-released mattress, and we don't see it lasting much longer.
Restlessness
1. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Mattress: twin from $1,699 $1,499 + $300 free gifts at Tempur-Pedic
The Tempur-Adapt's Tempur Material is designed to absorb virtually every movement. In our review, we called the bed's motion isolation "incredible"and felt that you could share a bed with a restless partner and sleep undisturbed. However, it is a splurge and the 90-night sleep trial and 10-year warranty are relatively short considering the price. Still, there's up to $400 off with this Black Friday mattress deal, and a queen is $200 off at $1,999 (was $2,199).
2. Leesa Sapira Hybrid Mattress: twin from $1,349 $944 at Leesa
The Leesa Sapira Hybrid's terrific motion isolation was a particular standout feature in our Leesa Sapira Hybrid mattress review, as was the gentle contouring for side sleepers (but it's likely too soft for stomach sleepers). A 25% Black Friday discount has now morphed into a 30% discount, so a queen is down from $1,399 to $1,999. Benefits include a 10-year warranty, 100-night sleep trial, and free delivery.
3. Siena Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $169.15 at Amazon
The Siena Memory Foam Mattress is our favorite low-budget mattress for a number of reasons, low motion transfer included. Our reviewers and testing panel for the Siena Memory Foam mattress review called it one of the best mattresses for stomach sleepers thanks to its incredible firm support, and they were also impressed with its temperature control and the way its memory foam absorbed movement. A queen is usually on sale for $399, but Amazon has dropped a new Black Friday mattress deal - taking a queen down to $339.15. That's the lowest price we've seen.
Snoring
1. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Ergo Smart Base: twin from $1,899 now $1,699 at Tempur-Pedic
Providing adjustable lumbar support where you need it most, and head and foot lifts, the Tempur-Ergo helps you find your ideal sleep position. The bed base is laced with sensors powered by Tempur-Pedic's Sleeptracker-AI, which detect snoring and automatically raises your head position. This opens airways and minimises your noisy sleep habits. On top of the usual Tempur-Pedic deal, where you can bundle your base with a mattress and receive $300 credit instantly in your account, Tempur-Pedic Black Friday mattress deals take $200 off all sizes of the Tempur-Ergo, bringing a queen down to $1,499 (was $1,599).
2. Nectar Adjustable Comfort Premier Adjustable Base: twin from $1,398 now $749 at Nectar
With a built-in massage function and a Zero Gravity setting that reduces pressure on joints, the Nectar Premier Adjustable Base takes stress relief to the next level. Plus you can save your favorite positions for night-after-night comfort. There's now over 45% off, reducing a queen size to $849 (was $1,598). Or, you can shop Nectar's Adjustable Bundle, which includes a Nectar mattress of your choice (we recommend the Nectar Classic, which is our best memory foam mattress of the year) and a free bedding bundle, alongside the adjustable base. In this deal, you'll pay $649 for the Nectar Classic and $849 for the base, bringing the total to $1,498. Although this isn't as good as last year's deal, where this bundle was $1,408, the $3,849 saving is huge.
3. Lucid L300 Adjustable Bed Frame: twin from $449.99 now $276.33 at Amazon
The Lucid L300 Adjustable Bed Frame offers adjustable head and foot positions to help you sleep easier and quieter. This is because sleeping at an incline reduces pressure on airways, preventing snoring. This bed base also elevates your position, making it comfortable for reading and relaxing. Although the base only goes up to a queen size, the brand recommends coupling two twin sizes to build a split king bed base. It's compatible with foam, latex and hybrid mattresses and designed to fit sweetly in most standard size bed frames. With 39% off, the Lucid L300 is currently at its lowest-ever price on Amazon and comes with free delivery.

Hybrid mattresses
1. Saatva Classic mattress: twin from $1,195 now $995 at Saatva
You'll have seen the superb Saatva Classic at the top of our Editor's Choice section: it's the best mattress we've tested, and because it's made from foam and coils, it naturally sits at the top of our best hybrid mattress guide, too. There's a $400 discount for Black Friday, which takes the Saatva Classic back down to its lowest price of the year - and while it's still a pricey mattress, you absolutely get what you pay for. Aside from a luxury sleeping experience, it's the only hybrid mattress here that's delivered flat, with free white glove delivery and set up in the room of your choice. It's a brilliant choice for anyone with back pain, and it comes it three different firmness versions, so you can tailor it to your preferences. If you're looking for a luxury hotel-quality experience while you sleep, we can't recommend the Saatva more highly. However, we're pretty sure we'll see these prices again in the next sale, so don't feel you have to buy it right now.
2. The DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress: twin from $419 at DreamCloud
This superstar hybrid mattress is one of our most highly recommended - second only to the Saatva Classic, which is a whopping $1,000 more expensive. It’s ranked highly in lots of our buying guides, from best mattress and hybrid mattress, to best mattress in a box, best for back pain, best for side sleepers, best luxury mattress… And that’s because it’s unbeatable value for money - no other hybrid we’ve tested in this price range comes close. It’s great for couples, hot sleepers, heavier bodies… Bear in mind that it feels a little firmer than medium firm at first, but all our reviewers soon adjusted and found it to be extremely comfortable and supportive. We can’t recommend this mattress highly enough.
3. Awara Natural Hybrid: twin from $649 now $549 at Awara
This brilliant, budget organic latex mattress is $100 cheaper than in last year’s Black Friday mattress sales, with a twin down to $549 (was $649) and a queen at $849 (was $949). It’s the cheapest and most popular model in the luxury eco brand’s stable, and the latex foam layer works well with the individually wrapped innersprings to provide excellent support and pressure relief in all sleeping styles - we gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars in our review. Latex typically lasts longer than other mattress materials, so you shouldn’t need to replace this one for a while.
4. Cloverlane Hybrid Mattress: twin from $2,531 now $599 at Cloverlane
The Cloverlane Hybrid is Resident's answer to the popular Saatva Classic luxury innerspring hybrid at a lower price. Like its rival, the Cloverlane comes in three comfort levels — medium, firm, or extra firm — and includes free White Glove Delivery, a 365-night trial, and a lifetime trial. In our Cloverlane Hybrid Mattress review, we call it a good choice for sleepers with back pain thanks to the dedicated lumbar support and great pressure relief. A queen-size is on sale for $1,399, which is $300 less than the comparable Saatva Classic. Just know that several size and firmness combinations are already out of stock.
Memory foam mattresses
1. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud Mattress: twin from $1,699 now $1,189.30 at Tempur-Pedic
Tempur Materials were the original memory foam and the slow-moving body-hugging feel has come to define what many of us expect from a memory foam mattress. The Tempur-Cloud is the most affordable bed in the premium line-up and with 30% off, this is your best chance to enjoy Tempur Material foams for less. While not cheap, a queen is $1,399.30 down from $1,999, these beds are known for their unique comfort. They are somewhat divisive (not everyone likes a marshmallow hug), but we were impressed during our Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud mattress review — just watch out for overheating.
2. Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $1,063 now $349 at Nectar
The Nectar has long been one of our favorite all-foam beds and the recent redesign continued to impress our Nectar Mattress review panel. A good all-rounder that offers fantastic value for money, you can go ahead and ignore the "total value" at Nectar — this mattress is always sold at a discount. The $649 price for a queen is nothing unusual; apart from a few brief flash sales, it's stayed the same since earlier this year. However, Nectar has upped the ante by adding $100 off if you spend over $1,000. That brings a split king down to $999, instead of its usual $1,099 price tag.
3. Siena Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $529 now $189 at Siena
The Siena avoids many of the traps of cheap memory foam — primarily, overheating and a lack of support — instead offering a firmer feel that's perfect for back sleepers. Siena has increased its usual sale for Black Friday and a queen is now only $379, which is $20 cheaper than we're used to seeing it. And the benefits are excellent for a budget bed, with a 180-night trial and a 10-year warranty.
4. Nectar Original Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $499 now $296.65 at Amazon
If you don't mind buying a previous-gen model, this Nectar mattress deal is unmissable. A queen-size is now $551.65, which is a drop from its previous sale price of $649 and the lowest we've ever seen it. Before the Nectar Classic arrived, the Nectar Original topped our best memory foam mattress guide for a very long time — and we still think it's an excellent buy for budget shoppers. The lone caveat is when buying from Amazon, you'll likely lose out on the 365-night trial Nectar offers directly. (Amazon does have a 100-day window for returns.) Read our Nectar Mattress review to learn why we rate it so highly.
Latex mattresses
1. PlushBeds Botanical Bliss Latex Mattress: twin from $2,649 now $1,299 at PlushBeds
Handcrafted in California, the PlushBeds Botanical Bliss Latex Mattress uses multiple layers of latex to create a highly-durable mattress that provides support from head-to-toe. This latex-focused build does have a premium price tag, but you can expect to enjoy many years of use out of this bed — latex is known for its longevity. A queen size is $1,799 for Black Friday, which is $100 cheaper than the evergreen saving. It's a deal we don't see come around very often.
2. Awara Natural Luxury Hybrid Mattress: twin from $896 now $549 at Awara
We haven't had a chance to test the recently launched Awara Natural Luxury Hybrid Mattress yet, but we did get our hands on the original Awara Natural Hybrid Mattress and praised its "superb build quality" and strong edge support. We expect this mattress to follow suit. Awara's up to 50% off sale is evergreen and they haven't announced anything special for Black Friday. Still, $849 for a queen (was $1,383) is a highly competitive price for a latex mattress.
3. Ethical Mattress Co 10" Latex and Pocket Coil Mattress: twin from $698 now $558.40 at Amazon
Using a 1" layer of bouncy latex foam on top of 8" of wrapped coils (plus a fiber base pad) we expect the Ethical Mattress Co mattress to have a responsive feel and excellent breathability. In the Amazon Black Friday sale a queen is $798.40 — this is a huge saving compared to the previous cheapest price of $1,079 for a queen at Amazon.
Organic mattresses
1. Avocado Eco-Organic Latex Hybrid mattress: twin from $777 now from $699 at Avocado
Avocado is one of America's top brands championing eco-friendly mattresses and bedding. This eco-hybrid mattress features GOLS-certified organic latex for a gentle medium-firm feel,1,000 individually pocketed coils for responsive support and GOTS-certified cotton and wool which are naturally breathable, soft and cooling. The brand delivers a whole natural package made with materials OEKO-certified to be safe and skin-friendly. You can now save 10% on a queen which is now priced at $1,169 now from the original MSRP of $1,299. Enjoy the brand's standard benefits that comes along with the mattress such as the 100-night sleep trial, free shipping and a 10-year warranty.
2. Birch Natural Mattress: twin from $1,373 now from $1,030 at Birch
The Birch Natural Mattress is crafted from organic latex comfort layers and naturally breathable and moisture-wicking cotton. This involves a fiberglass-free design with a natural-fire retardant layer from 100% organic wool. Like the Avocado model listed above, the Birch too feature 1,000 individually wrapped coils for adaptive comfort and great edge support. This medium feel mattress is great for all sleeping positions helping you maintain a healthy body alignment all throughout the night. The Birch also provides 100-night sleep trial, free shipping and an extended 25-year warranty. You can save up to 25% on Birch mattresses dropping the price of queen sized natural bed from $1,073.33 to $1,405 and a get pair of their Eco-Rest pillows for free.
3. Nolah Natural: twin from $1,499 now from $974 at Nolah
This 11" mattress consists of organic materials, ethically sourced promising a non-toxic hypoallergenic sleep. The Nolah Natural has a hybrid build with five layers including a top cover made of breathable moisture-wicking organic cotton followed by a strip of organic wool which acts a natural fire retardant (instead of fiberglass), two layers of responsive latex, a coil tier of 8" coils for targeted zoned support and a final bottom cover. This Black Friday you can save up to 35% on Nolah mattress giving you a chance to get a queen sized bed at $1,364 (was $2,099 before) along with two free pillows. You also get a 120-night trial, lifetime warranty and free shipping.
Traditional mattresses (shipped flat)
1. Stearns & Foster Lux Estate Mattress: twin from $2,899 now $2,499 at Stearns & Foster
Stearns & Foster is the brand behind some of the world's best hotel mattresses, and the Lux Estate recreates 5-star luxury in your own home. Sales at Stearns & Foster are rare and often fleeting, so shop now to receive a $400 discount and a free Visa gift card worth $300 — a queen is now from $2,599 (was $2,999). Free in-room delivery adds to the luxurious feel, but the other benefits are decidedly mid-range, including a 90-night trial and 10-year warranty.
2. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt mattress: twin was $1,699 now $1,499 at Tempur-Pedic
One of our favorite mattresses for easing back pain, our Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt mattress review panel enjoyed the balance of support and pressure relief from the dense Tempur Materials. For Black Friday, you can save on all sizes with a queen now just $1,999 (was $2,199) plus $300 in free accessories. It's rare to see a saving and a free gift from Tempur-Pedic. The Tempur-Adapt does come with free white glove delivery, but the other benefits are slightly disappointing: just a 90-night trial and 10-year warranty.
3. Saatva Classic Mattress: twin from $1,395 now $995 at Saatva
We've almost run out of ways to praise the Saatva Classic Mattress, but our recent re-review proved what we've been saying for years: it really is the best mattress in American right now. For Black Friday a queen is $1,695 (was $2,095) equalling the best deal of the year, and every size comes with free in-room delivery and set-up (plus a lifetime warranty and a 365-night trial). Even when it comes to extras, this is the best of the best.
Mid-range mattresses
1. DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress: twin from $1,130 now $419 at DreamCloud
If you're looking for a luxury feel on a mid-range budget, the DreamCloud is impossible to beat. The medium-firm feel is ideal for back and stomach sleepers, and though the side sleepers in our DreamCloud Mattress review team took a few nights to adjust, they also feel in love with this great value bed. DreamCloud's up to 50% off sale has been here since the start of the year, and at $665 (was $1,613) you're getting a real steal. There's also an extra $100 off if you spent $1,000, for those after bigger sizes or looking to re-do their entire sleep setup.
2. Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress: twin from $1,063 now $349 at Nectar
Few mattresses offer the value for money of the Nectar Classic and this all-foam model features gentle contouring pressure relief and support from head-to-toe. The saving is evergreen and a queen is likely to cost you $649 whenever you shop, but for Black Friday Nectar is offering an extra $100 off when you spend $1,000. So, you can add a bed frame, bedding and pillow and save money.
3. Leesa Studio Mattress: twin from $549 now $384 at Leesa
In our Leesa Studio Mattress hands-on we found this mid-range mattress delivers a plush feel similar feel to one of our favorite premium brands... so if you're after squishy, soothing foam without the cost of Tempur Materials, give this one a try. Especially as Leesa is running one of its rare 30% off sales for Black Friday, reducing a queen to $599 (was $799) plus free pillows.
Luxury mattresses
1. Stearns & Foster Lux Estate mattress: twin long from $2,899 now $2,499 at Stearns & Foster
From the creator of the Ritz-Carlton bed, the Lux Estate mattress from Stearns & Foster achieves a similar hotel opulence, particularly if you opt for the medium pillow top feel. While we haven't tried the Lux Estate, this luxury upgrade fixes one of the big issues we had during our Stearns & Foster Estate mattress review. Namely, a lack of medium feel. With $400 off all sizes, a medium queen with pillow top is $3,199 (was $3,599) and comes with a free Visa gift card worth $300. We have seen a $600 off Stearns & Foster sale in the past, but $400 off matches last Black Friday's sale and we predict it's the cheapest we'll see this year.
2. The WinkBed Mattress: twin from $1,149 now $849 at WinkBed
Pairing a premium pillow top with a durability tested spring base, the WinkBed promises comfort for those with back and joint pain. We tested the Luxury Firm feel during our WinkBed Mattress review (it comes in four feels, including plus) and we were impressed with the luxurious cushioned support. So perhaps it's no surprise that you can find the WInkBed in US hotels including Gravity Haus, The Time Hotel in NYC, and Boon Hotel. There's no rush to snap up this deal, as the $300 off sale is evergreen and reduces a queen to $1,499 (was $1,799). But delivery estimates are around two weeks, so order now to ensure it's in place by the holidays.
3. Puffy Royal Mattress: twin from $1,499 now $1,149 at Puffy
The Puffy Royal Hybrid delivers a sumptuous, ultra plush feel we described as "cloud-like" in our Puffy Royal Hybrid Mattress review. Standing 14" tall, the sink-in feel is probably too soft for stomach sleepers, but should provide lush cushioning for side sleepers. While sales are evergreen at Puffy, this deal is better than the offer we usually see: a queen is just $2,299 (from an MSRP of $3,649), which beats the standard sale price of $2,399.
Pillow-top mattresses
1. Novilla Hybrid Pillow Top, 12-inch: full from $319.99 now from $221.24 at Amazon
This five-layer hybrid mattress features temperature regulating gel-infused memory foam, and has an individual pocket coil spring system to improve edge support and motion isolation - making it an ideal choice if you have restless partners or pets. It should be suitable for different sleeping styles, and this is the cheapest-ever price we've seen on Amazon. The price of a queen is now $275.10 - that's a 15% discount.
2. Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid: twin from $665 now from $465.50 at Brooklyn Bedding
If excellent pressure relief and comfort are your priorities, the Signature Hybrid mattress is worth considering. It uses high-quality foams for comfort, ans has an individually encased coil system to give targeted support and isolate motion. The brand also gives you an option to choose from three firmness levels (soft, medium and firm) so you customize it to your preference. It comes with additional benefits such as 120-night trial, 10-year warranty and free shipping. With the current 30% for Black Friday, a queen sized bed now retails at $932.40 down from $1,332.
3. Helix Midnight Luxe: twin from $1,373 now from $1,002.54 + $330 free gifts at Helix with code: TOMS27
The Helix Midnight Luxe is a medium-firm mattress designed to suit side sleepers, with a plush pillow top offering sink-in softness and contouring comfort to your major pressure points when you lie on your side: shoulders, hips and knees. Our testing panel gave it five out of five stars for pressure relief, and called it the best mattress for side sleepers. We've teamed up with helix to offer a special Black Friday mattress deal: add code TOMS27 at checkout and you'll get a 27% discount and $330-worth of free gifts - that's better than the 25% you'll find on the Helix site. There's a100-night sleep trial, 15-year warranty and free shipping.
For heavy people
1. Nolah Evolution Comfort+ Mattress: twin from $1,499 now $924.35 at Nolah
The Evolution Comfort+ Mattress provides a cushioned feel for side sleepers with a bigger build, and the quilted foam surface should offer exceptional pressure relief. For Black Friday you can save 35%, but use discount code TOMS50OFF for an extra saving of $50. With a queen now just $1,574.35 (was $1,624), plus two free pillows, it's a saving to match the best Nolah deals we've seen this year.
2. Big Fig Mattress: twin from $1,499 now $999 at Big Fig
Big Fig specializes in sleep solutions for larger builds, and the Big Fig mattress was built from the ground-up to offer support for heavier bodies. Reviews indicate the feel is best for back and stomach sleepers, while durability testing should offer reassurance that this mattress won't start to sag prematurely (that and the 20-year warranty). We tend to see a discount of $350 to $400 at Big Fig, with the $500 off sale reserved for big occasions. There's no bigger occasion than Black Friday — right now a queen is just $1,399 (was $1,899) and matches the lowest price this year.
3. Helix Plus Mattress: twin from $1,065.33 now $777.70 at Helix
A relatively new addition to the Helix line-up, the Plus offers heavier people a medium-firm support that should suit a range of sleep positions. We haven't tested the Plus yet, but Helix mattresses nearly always impress us, so we have high hopes for this one. You can claim 27% off with our code TOMS27, for a price of $1,069.70 for a queen (was $1,465.33) plus two free pillows. There's normally 20% off the Helix with the deal typically increasing to 25% on major sales days. This 27% off saving is an exciting step up.
Smart beds
1. Eight Sleep Pod 4 Ultra: queen from $4,699 now $4,299 at Eight Sleep
The Pod 4 Ultra is the newest, most advanced model in Eight Sleep's three-piece suite of smart bed systems, and includes an adjustable bed base alongside the Eight Sleep mattress cover and control hub. Complete with state-of-the-art dual temperature regulation, snoring mitigation, detailed sleep analysis and a vibration, thermal alarm feature, it's no wonder this is the sleep companion of high-performing celebrities. Although the Pod 4 Ultra is no longer at its reduced launch price, you can get $400 off in Eight Sleep's Black Friday sale, bringing a queen pod to $4,299 (was $4,699). Beware, though, you will have to budget for Eight Sleep's monthly subscription fee to access all smart features.
2. Sleep Number i8 smart bed: twin from $3,399 now $2,379.30 at Sleep Number
Sleep Number is known for its great-value smart beds and generous sales. The i8 smart bed is the brand's most popular mattress built with plush, supportive layers, and dual adjustable firmness for you to customize the feel of your bed. Meanwhile, integrated sleep trackers collect your sleep data to produce nightly sleep reports and scores. With up to $1,799 off right now, this smart bed is back to its cheapest price of the year, matching the President's Day and October Prime Day sales. You can bag a queen for $2,799.30 (was $3,999) with free delivery and 15-year warranty.
3. Saatva Solaire Mattress: twin from $3,295 now $2,895 at Saatva
The Saatva Solaire isn't a smart bed in the sense that the others here are. It isn't controlled via a mobile app and it doesn't provide sleep tracking. So, what makes it smart? Where the Solaire excels is in adjustable firmness. It has 50 precise firmness options that enable you to customize the feel of this luxurious mattress, and is operated with a good, old-fashioned remote control. These features make it a great choice for less tech-savvy people who are kept awake by muscle pain. However, Black Friday isn't the best time to buy more expensive Saatva mattresses like the Solaire. If you need it now, the best deal gives you a $400 price cut, but you're better off waiting for a percentage discount (which we see in general Saatva sales rather than at major sale events) for the biggest savings on this one.
4. Bryte Balance Smart Bed: queen from $6,299 now $5,549 at Bryte
The Bryte Balance is an AI-powered smart bed that adapts to your every movement with 90 foam-wrapped air modules that individually respond to and redistribute pressure as you move across 16 zones (eight zones per side). It also features a silent alarm to wake you up, a library of immersive sound and motion experiences to help you fall asleep, and a Sleep Concierge for insights on your sleep quality. As part of its Black Friday sale, all sizes of the Bryte Balance are $750 off after an in-cart discount, which knocks the price of a queen to $5,549 (was $6,299). It comes with a 100-night trial, but you can also try it for a night at select luxury resorts and hotels. Read our Bryte Balance Smart Bed hands-on review to learn why we think it's worth the splurge.
Japanese floor mattresses
1. The MAXYOYO Japanese Floor Mattress: small single from $69.99 $59.49 at Amazon
We were pleasantly surprised by how comfortable and supported we were when we tried this best-selling Japanese floor mattress. It was ready to sleep on in just a few hours and it comes with a dust cover and a handy storage bag. The discount on the MAXYOYO Japanese Floor mattress varies depending on which size and color you pick, so we recommend clicking through to explore all the deals available. The cheapest price you'll see on a queen size is the grey shade, which is 15% off and reduced to $84.99. Free shipping and 30-day returns are also available.
2. FULI Japanese Futon Mattress: twin from $178 $142.40 at Amazon
The FULI Japanese Futon Mattress boasts an overall rating of 4.5 stars from 3,570 customer reviews. It's more expensive and slimmer than the MAXYOYO mattress, but it is more breathable thanks to a moisture-wicking quilted cotton cover. Currently, a 20% off Black Friday deal takes a queen size down from $268 to $214.40.
3. DoCred 4" Japanese Floor Mattress in Deep Black: twin from $78.86 $63.97 at Amazon
The DoCred Japanese Floor Mattress is a rival to the MAXYOYO and a thicker, cheaper alternative to the FULI Mattress. It has a thick 4" design and, like the MAXYOYO, comes with a storage bag with bandages to make storage easier. While there has been some negative customer reviews about the size, most reviewers have praised the comfort and ease of folding. Currently, a queen size is 20% off at $95.65 (was $119.56).

Shop by retailer
Amazon: Linenspa, Zinus, and more in the Black Friday sale
Amazon is the land of cheap mattresses - it’s particularly good for a toddler beds, with six-inch twin mattresses from $76 (the Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam at $89, down from $104, is our top recommendation). But in addition to brands like Zinus, Linenspa and the Amazon Basics range, you'll also find cheaper older models from more recognizable brands such as Nectar, Casper and DreamCloud. One deal that's well worth a look is the now-retired Nectar Copper Premier mattress, which is around $200 cheaper at Amazon than it is at Walmart.
Best Buy: up to $400 off big-name mattress brands Best Buy’s Black Friday sale is packed with deals from the likes of Serta, Sealy, Casper and Nectar, plus there’s decent stock on some cheaper mattresses too from Linnespa and Lucid. If you don't mind getting an older mattress it's worth a look - we found some of the newer mattresses to be cheaper to buy directly from the manufacturer though (such as Tuft & Needle).
Macy's: up to 70% off older models from big-name brands
If you’re just looking for the biggest discount possible, try Macy’s. The retailer is well-known for its enormous discounts on older models (all year around, not just on Black Friday). Right now there’s up to $2,000 off - but make sure you read the terms and conditions properly and know the refund policy, especially if you're buying a mattress in a blow-out sale. These items can't usually be returned, so you'll need to be sure you like what you've chosen.
Walmart: budget mattresses from $75 for Black Friday
There's up to 60% off mattresses at Walmart right now, with big savings on cheaper mattress brands, such as Linenspa, Zinus, NapQueen and Novilla. One standout deal is the queen Linenspa Explorer 6-inch Firm Tight Top Innerspring Mattress for $98.88 at Walmart (was $269.99.) While that will be too thin to provide meaningful support for most adults, it's a good on an innerspring mattress for a child, teen or guest room. We also really like Walmart’s own mattress brand, Allswell - the flagship Hybrid model is around $30 cheaper than Memorial Day.
Black Friday mattress deals 2024: FAQs
When is Black Friday 2024?
Today! This year Black Friday falls on Friday November 29, which is the day after Thanksgiving. Based on previous sales, we fully expect most of today's Black Friday mattress deals to roll over to Saturday and Sunday. Many of these will then appear in the Cyber Monday mattress deals.
After Black Friday and Cyber Monday, mattress prices start to slowly increase again until we see the arrival of the Presidents' Day mattress sales in February.
Is Black Friday a good time to buy a mattress?
Yes, Black Friday is a great time to buy a new mattress for less. Nearly all the top-rated mattresses sold online and in store are discounted during the Black Friday mattress sales, with hundreds of dollars' worth of savings on offer.
Some of the more competitive brands are offering money off today, plus free sleep gifts, such as pillows and mattress protectors.
However, there are other times of the year when we also recommend buying a new mattress, and these include Presidents' Day in February, plus the Memorial Day mattress sales and the Labor Day Mattress sales in September. Traditionally, Black Friday had the very best deals, but this is no longer the case.
Why are Black Friday mattress deals so popular?
Black Friday mattress deals deliver some of the biggest savings of the year, with potentially several hundred dollars worth of savings on some of the year's top-rated mattresses. These holiday sales are incredibly popular because they deliver such cheap prices on otherwise pricey new beds – many of them from leading sleep brands including Saatva, Casper, Purple, Nectar Sleep, DreamCloud, Avocado Green Mattress and Helix Sleep in the States.
In the UK, Black Friday mattress deals are a smaller affair yet no less beneficial to anyone shopping for a great mattress at a cheap price. In the UK we normally see Black Friday sales from Simba Sleep, Nectar Sleep, Emma Sleep, Brook + Wilde, Silentnight, Eve and REM-Fit.
Cyber Monday vs Black Friday mattress deals
There are two big shopping dates at the end of the year, where mattress brands and retailers launch some of their best sales of the year: Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Cyber Monday mattress sales take place on the Monday directly after Black Friday, so you may be wondering which is the best day for deals: Black Friday or Cyber Monday?
Black Friday mattress deals officially begin on Friday 29 November 2024, the day after Thanksgiving 2024. Cyber Monday mattress sales officially start on Monday 1 December 2024 and will end that same day.
The answer is simple: they are pretty much the same sale, albeit with a name change. Black Friday mattress deals usually roll over to Cyber Monday mattress sales, giving you one last chance to buy a great bed for a much cheaper price.
While there may be one or two deals that don't transfer across from Black Friday to Cyber Monday, the vast majority of them do. Similarly, one or two mattress brands may save a really big price drop for Cyber Monday exclusively but this is rare as most companies don't want to risk missing out on all those Black Friday mattress shoppers.
Do stores have Black Friday mattress deals?
Major mattress stores are running Black Friday sales today, and some of them are as good as the deals we see online. The difference is that you'll need to travel to the store to see what discounts they are offering on which mattresses.
If you're keen to buy a mattress in store instead of online during Black Friday, we'd 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 Black Friday mattress deal last for?
Where to find the best Black Friday mattress deals
Online is the best place to find the largest Black Friday discounts on mattresses. That's because online stores don't have the same bricks and mortar costs as physical shops so they can pass those savings on to you in the form of cheaper mattress prices.
However there can be up to 50+ sales running at any one time during Black Friday and through to Cyber Monday, so learning how to spot the best deals before they sell out is important.
Our mattress experts have years of shopping the Black Friday mattress sales so we can quickly spot the great deals and which ones we see every month that have just been dressed with clever marketing language as a Black Friday sale. Our editors also track the price history of every major mattress on the market, so we tell you if the sale price of a mattress is genuinely lower or not.
In no particular order, the following brands and retailers are where we have found many of this year's best Black Friday mattress deals:
- Saatva
- Mattress Firm
- Nectar Sleep
- DreamCloud
- Helix Sleep
- Tempur-Pedic
- Casper
- Purple
Can I get free bedding with mattresses on Black Friday?
Lots of mattress brands throw in free pillows, mattress protectors, duvets and even weighted blankets as a way to sweeten their deals. This is something we see most months, regardless of Black Friday, but during Black Friday and Cyber Monday in past years we have seen an increase in the number of free bedding gifts coupled with larger discounts on the mattresses. That’s why the Black Friday mattress sales are an excellent time to buy a new bed.
Black Friday mattress deals 2024: Shopping tips
How to choose a good mattress during Black Friday
Buying a new mattress can be intimidating. However, many bed-in-a-box companies have made the process simple. Some companies even offer 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 Black Friday, 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. (Alternatively, you can invest in one of the best mattress toppers).
That said, our favorite overall mattress comes from Nectar. The company has crafted a mattress that's both comfortable and economical. Other noteworthy brands include Saatva, Allswell, and Purple. Below you'll find our Black Friday mattress deals for these and other top-rated brands.
Things to keep in mind before you buy
- Never pay full price: Black Friday and Cyber Monday are the best time to buy a new mattress or new bedding. Other holidays like Memorial Day and Labor Day pale in comparison to the Black Friday mattress sales you'll see in the coming months. 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 18-months trials with free return shipping.
