The Saatva Classic drops to $995 in Labor Day sale — why it's still my top pick

As a sleep and mattress writer, if I had to recommend just one bed in the Labor Day sale, it would be the Saatva Classic. Right now you can save $400 on the Saatva Classic at Saatva, which is an excellent discount on a handcrafted bed that has such a luxurious feel that supports a range of sleep styles. 

The Saatva Classic has consistently topped our best mattress guide, and it's retained the number one spot throughout 2024. The Classic is still my personal number one sales pick, especially as this deal matches the low prices we spotted over Memorial Day. A queen is now only $1,695, down from $2,095, and you get free white glove delivery and old mattress removal with your purchase — plus a full year's trial to test it out.

The Labor Day mattress sales often bring big discounts at Saatva, and this year is no different. While this is the best discount in this year's Saatva Labor Day sale for the Classic hybrid, if you're eyeing up a different mattress from the brand there are plenty of other options available. For now, here's why the Saatva Classic is still my number one pick...

• Saatva launches new flash sale — save $400 on the world’s best hybrid mattress

Was: from $1,395
Now: from $995
Saving: up to $400 at Saatva

Summary: The Saatva Classic comes in three firmness levels and two heights, so you can personalize it to match your sleep needs. In our Saatva Classic Mattress review we praised the excellent pressure relief and lower back support, as well as edge support and temperature regulation (it's suitable for hot sleepers). We did have some criticism of the motion isolation, but unless you have a very restless partner it shouldn't be an issue. We rate the Classic as this year's best hybrid mattress for all sleepers and even though it's expensive, but I feel it's worth the money.

Price history: The current $400 off Saatva mattress sale is the best deal I've seen this year on the Classic, matching the Memorial Day discount. The MSRP has risen by $100, so it's not quite as good a saving as last Labor Day ($1,595 for a queen). However, considering all Saatva beds have increased in price by $100 I predict this is the cheapest price we'll see for Labor Day (and probably Black Friday in November).

Benefits: Year's trial | Lifetime warranty | Free mattress installation and old bed removal

Are Saatva mattresses worth it?

Saatva mattresses aren't cheap. However they come with a full year's trial and a lifetime warranty, so Saatva clearly has trust in the build quality. Another advantage of the Saatva Classic is customization. With multiple heights and firmness levels, you don't have to take a chance on the feel: you can essentially build the bed to meet your body weight and sleep style. 

But if the Classic is out of your budget, we have rounded up some beds that compare to the Saatva Classic at a lower price tag. While they might not match the overall luxury of the Classic, they're cheaper and can still help you sleep more comfortably.
