Bear Mattress is kicking off their Memorial Day mattress sales early, knocking 35% off their best selling memory foam bed, the Bear Original Mattress. This sale means you can buy a queen size Bear Original for $649 and get $320 of free bedding at Bear Mattress. That’s a $669 saving on the queen size ($349 off plus $320 of free pillows and sheets), with up to $591 off the largest size.
The Bear Original is one of the best mattresses for providing pressure relief at an affordable price. It's the memory foam bed I always recommend to those looking for the contouring pressure relief of foam, without breaking the bank. Couples in particular will appreciate its excellent motion isolation and edge to edge support.
Part of my job as a sleep writer is tracking mattress sales, and this offer from Bear matches those we usually see during major sale events, like Black Friday. That makes now an excellent time to shop this deal, as we can't see this price being better in next month's Memorial Day mattress sales.
Is a memory foam mattress right for you?
Memory foam mattresses are generally the most affordable type of bed-in-a-box mattress and they're known for providing exceptional contouring and pressure relief. Memory foam molds itself to your shape, cushioning where you press against the mattress to limit aches and pains.
Memory foam is also known for a slower reaction time. The foam absorbs movement, so if your partner gets up, you won't be disturbed. However, memory foam mattresses aren't right for everyone. For starters, some people don't like the 'hug' feel of foam and find it too constrictive. Memory foam mattresses can also sleep hot, as dense foam lacks the easy airflow of coils (although sleep brands use a range of tricks to negate this).
