As a sleep writer, I know from testing mattress toppers that they can soften and cool even the firmest and warmest of beds — and there are plenty on sale this October Prime Day. My favorite deal is one where you can save up to 50% on the Tempur-Pedic TEMPUR-Adapt + Cooling at Amazon, with a queen now down from $499 to just $251. In comparison, there's no deal on this topper at Tempur-Pedic's official website.  

Tempur-Pedic appears in our best mattress of 2024 guide for all sleepers, while the Tempur-Adapt Topper ranks No 1 in our guide to this year's best mattress toppers. However, you can find plenty of great bed topper deals away from today's Amazon Prime Day deals, with Brooklyn Bedding, Birch, and Casper offering Prime Day-beating deals of their own. 

So, whether you're looking for a budget gel-infused memory foam topper for affordable and refreshing softness, or a a mattress topper deal with premium cooling features and better benefits, here's my three Amazon Prime Day mattress deals. Plus, I've also cherry picked three rival discounts, from Casper, Birch Living and Brooklyn Bedding.

1. Casper Comfy Topper: was from $199 now from $149.25 at Casper
Our Casper Comfy Mattress Topper review found this topper to be perfect for side sleepers in need of pressure relief - and it offers a surprising amount of cooling, too.

Right now a 30% off discount (bigger than the brand's standard 25% off deal) takes a queen down to $462 (was $660).
