Not one but two AD staffers–senior SEO manager Katie Henwood and digital features editor Nick Mafi–have slept soundly on their Nectar purchases. According to Katie, “This mattress is a dream come true for all kinds of sleepers. It offers extra support without sacrificing comfort, and getting into bed each night is like falling into a cloud.” And right now, you can enjoy $100 off and $399 worth of free accessories with every mattress purchase.
Former AD PRO editor Katy Olson suspected the “firm, but not overly so” Avocado mattress helped relieve some of her nightly allergy sneezing. And during their early Black Friday sale the brand is taking $150 off its Avocado Green, Vegan and Latex Mattresses with code Organic.
Clever contributor Gabriela Ulloa called the Helix Midnight Luxe “The Cradled Hug We’ve All Been Craving” in her review earlier this year. And, really, can you put a price tag on that? The answer is yes, and happily that price tag is currently discounted by $200 and you’ll receive two free Dream pillows with purchase.
It’s no secret Casper makes very good mattresses. And the brand’s early Black Friday deals are even better: Take 20% off of sleep bundles, 15% off mattresses or 10% off sheets and pillows through 12/5. Need more convincing? Former Clever editor Nora Taylor said of her Nova Hybrid, “If you are a fan of a plush mattress top, I would 100% recommend it. You get to sink into bed but get enough support that your body isn’t thrown out of whack.”
If you’re new to the whole bed-in-a-box phenomenon, Leesa is another excellent choice that’s taking up to $400 off mattresses (and 15% off bundles) as part of their early Black Friday Sale. Their hybrid mattress combines pressure-relieving foam with 1,000 pocket springs to deliver just the right amount of support and comfort.
Bear has been in the mattress business for 25 years—meaning they know what they’re doing. Not only are their non-toxic, certified clean mattresses made in the US, but their beds are also designed with a unique combination of high-quality foams and coils to help your body restore while you sleep. Sound good? What’s better is the brand is taking 25% off all its mattresses (and throwing in free cloud pillows and a free sheet set) during their early Black Friday sale.
Like Avocado, Awara makes a very supportive mattress using natural materials like organic cotton and New Zealand wool. Right now, you can save $400 on any one of their mattresses and enjoy $499 worth of accessories for free. Plus, the brand will even plant ten trees for a farmer in need with every purchase.
Love a quilted top but looking for ample support? Try this hybrid from Brooklyn Bedding that blends the best of both worlds with three levels of firmness to choose from—it’s also 25% off with code VETERANS25 through 11/11.
Here’s another great deal for the firm mattress lovers out there: Saatva is slashing 10% off sitewide or 15% off any purchase of $2500 or more. Public relations director Erin Kaplan slept on Saatva’s “very firm” classic mattress, saying that “the mattress feels soft and ‘gives’ at pressure points (e.g., at your shoulders and upper arms when you’re sleeping on your side), but without any noticeable impact or movement elsewhere.”
Tuft & Needle is celebrating Black Friday early with up to 15% off. The brand’s Mint Mattress is a particularly good option for side-sleepers, like former AD PRO features editor Anna Fixsen, who “slept noticeably better” on the adaptive memory foam bed. “I found that I could find my comfy place quickly and fall asleep faster,” she says.
Sleeping on one of Purple’s proprietary polymer latex mattresses feels like being cradled but is still supportive—at least according to our editorial operations director Diane Dragan. “Even though I thought I was Team Firm Mattress for life, Purple may be my new fave with its body adjustability combined with springs underneath,” Diane says. Right now you can head to Purple to snag up to $150 off the brand’s original memory foam mattress during their sale.
Another name in the natural mattress game is Birch, who’s taking $400 off mattresses and throwing in two free pillows with code BFSALE400. Designed in organic cotton, the Birch Natural Mattress is meant to be “highly breathable with a subtle stretch and soft touch.”
Sleep company Layla infuses their gel memory foam mattresses with—get this—copper. The brand claims its copper-based technology provides varied support, helps you sleep cooler, and has antimicrobial properties to help fight odor-causing bacteria. To sweeten the deal, the brand’s also offering up to $200 off mattresses and two free memory foam pillows through 11/26.
Nolah prides itself on being one of the best mattresses for side-sleepers thanks to its proprietary Cooling Nolah AirFoam which “provides superior pressure relief, keeps you cool, and contours perfectly to your body.” Care to test out their claim? Now’s a great time considering the brand’s offering up to $700 off Mattresses and two free pillows while supplies last.
There’s plenty of great mattress deals to take advantage of from California-cool brand Brentwood Home. Right now the brand is taking $200 off Hybrid Latex and Crystal Cove Mattresses using code SLEEPY; $300 off Oceano and Cedar Mattresses using code EARLYBF; and 15% off Cypress Mattresses Mattress using code CYPRESS; through 11/15.
Here’s a deal we’re excited about from Amerisleep: Right now, the brand is taking $300 any one of its mattresses (plus two free cooling pillows) with code AS300. Personally, we’d go with their best-selling AS3—it’s designed to adapt to most sleep styles and available in both all-foam or a hybrid.
Zoma, the bed brand targeted specifically at athletes, is offering a very competitive deal on its offerings of supportive and restorative mattresses. During their ongoing early Black Friday sale you can race over to save $150 off mattresses and rack up to $150 in free accessories.
Vaya is all low-cost comfort without sacrificing quality. Though it’s only made of two layers of the brand’s own “comfort foam,” Vaya promises you’ll sleep soundly no matter what position you prefer. Right now you can save $300 on its namesake mattress (along with its hybrid counterpart) with code VAYA300.
Firm mattress lovers can score a great deal on the supportive mattress of their dreams thanks to Mattress Firm’s Black Friday deals. With discounts on a variety of models from Serta, Sleepy’s, Sealy and Beautyrest, the hardest part will be narrowing down your selection to just one. Though personally, we’d go with Beautyrest’s Greenwood mattress, which is now 25% off and provides targeted support to your entire body.
Through 11/23, all of Allswell’s mattresses (and their entire bedding collection) are 20% off with code THANKFUL. Director of commerce partnerships Jacqueline Wladis can’t recommend Allswell’s most luxe mattress enough: “The entire design of the mattress makes me feel like I’m sleeping on a cloud while keeping me cool and supporting me so that I stay asleep.”
Eight Sleep might make the only mattress guaranteed to help you sleep hotter or colder. This is thanks to hydraulic technology that flows hot or cold water directly underneath your body as you sleep. If this sounds like it’s up your ally, we’re happy to report that you can save up to $250 off the brand’s Pod mattress during their early Black Friday sale.
Hot sleepers need not fret on BeautyRest’s Black Mattress. The very cooling bed features what the brand calls its BlackICE 4.0 system “designed to help you sleep cooler and longer.” Combined with reinforced edge support, supportive spring technology, and up to $300 off through 12/16? What’s not to like!
If you’re looking for something to pair with your highly-coveted FLOYD bed frame, look no further than the brand’s own hybrid mattress, now $200 off with code BFCM21.
Thanks to its heat regulation and three layers of supportive foam, former features editor Anna Fixsen says “The Mint mattress provides a luxuriously supportive sleep.” As part of their early Black Friday sale, Tuft & Needle is currently offering up to 20% off–and the Mint is included.
