The Nectar mattress received the top mattress award in our Sleep Awards earlier this year. 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.” Right now the brand’s offering 40% off everything for their Black Friday mattress sale.
Our tester said that her DreamCloud mattress felt more luxe than the price would suggest, giving it an 8/10 comfort rating. She noted that the box is heavy upon delivery, but the bed is easy to unbox and set up once it’s found its place in the bedroom. The bed is a perfect blend of soft and firm and springs back into place right after she gets up, with no indent left behind. During DreamCloud’s Black Friday sale, you can save 40% off any one of the brand’s high-quality mattresses.
We’ve seen no shortage of rave reviews when it comes to Helix. Clever contributor Jacqueline Wladis called the Helix Midnight Luxe mattress “an absolute dream” while our contributor Gabriela Ulloa called the Helix Midnight Luxe “the cradled hug we’ve all been craving” when she reviewed it last year. Right now, the Midnight Luxe is discounted by 25% and you’ll receive two free Dream pillows, a mattress protector, and a sheet set with any mattress purchase.
Tuft & Needle is celebrating fall with up to 25% off sleep accessories and up to $800 off select mattresses. The brand’s Mint mattress is a particularly good option for side sleepers and was named the best memory foam mattress in our Sleep Awards. Our tester, Anna Fixen, said in her review, “I am usually a big toss-and-turner, but I slept noticeably better in this bed than on my previous mattress. I found that I could find my comfy place quickly and fall asleep faster.” Whether you opt for the Mint mattress or just want to save 25% on a new topper, pillow or sheet set, you can’t go wrong with T&N’s Black Friday sale.
Throughout the bed-in-a-box boom, Saatva has bridged the gap between traditional mattresses and the bevy of DTC brands that are now occupying the space. Thanks to elevated materials and white-glove delivery, its made-to-order mattresses have quickly become a darling of the sleep world. The brand’s Black Friday sale is here, offering up to $600 off sitewide–including the Saatva Classic and Clever contributor Bailey Berg’s favorite Loom & Leaf memory foam mattress. Bailey loved the mattress because of its Goldilocks blend of comfort and sustainability, which go along nicely with its impressive durability and gel-infused cooling that is ideal for hot sleepers. (Though if you prefer an innerspring option to memory foam, opt for the Saatva Classic mattress.)
WinkBed’s Black Friday sale means up to $300 off on the brand’s Luxury Hybrid mattress, which remains a constant favorite mattress brand among the Clever staff. If you’re not quite sure whether you like an ultra-plush feel or something with a little more support, then the Luxury Hybrid’s for you. It combines layers of contouring specialty foam and a pillow top with innersprings to create a mattress that’s the ideal sweet spot between firm and plush. Contributor Mark Burka found himself very impressed by the Luxury Hybrid saying: “The mattress’s hybrid components truly give you the best of both worlds at a more affordable price. The WinkBed mattress technology provides strong edge support and wicks away heat, ensuring sleepers have a calm, peaceful night.”
Another deal we’re excited about: $450 off any mattresses sold at Amerisleep using code AS450 at checkout. There are many options to choose from, though we’d recommend the best-selling AS3 mattress. The AS3 prioritizes versatility, and is meant to work for any body type and sleeping position—whether you favor your back or side. It’s also available in all-foam or hybrid if you prefer the best of both world, and it features a cooling cover that the brand states will stay seven degrees cooler as you get your eight-hours of sleep.
Right now, Nest is offering up to 50% off everything sitewide, including their many different mattress models. We’ve got our eye on the brand’s most popular mattress, the Sparrow Signature Hybrid. Nest says it’s the most comfortable for all sleep positions of all their mattresses and you can customize its feel between three different options—medium, plush, and firm. Made in the US, it’s available in sizes ranging from twin to California King, including a split choice King for couples who have different sleep positions and styles.
Short for “Bigger Figure,” Big Fig makes ultra firm mattresses meant to suit any and all body types. While the mattress keeps things pretty supportive with layers of individually wrapped coils, high density foam, and a firmer edge foam, it does balance things out with a pillow-y soft layer according to contributor and tester, Elise Portale. But how does sleeping on this mattress feel? “Like. A. Dream,” according to Elise. “It’s so easy to roll over and get comfy on this thing, back, side, tummy. So after a couple of nights, I was out like a light without an achy neck, back, or shoulder in sight.” And right now, you can get this dreamy mattress for up to $450 off using code “BIGFRIDAY.”
We’ve long admired Floyd for their stock of Scandi-inspired furniture. We found ourselves equally pleased with the brand’s mattress when digital design editor Zoë Sessums tried it out for best mattress brands testing. She reported it as one of the best mattresses she’s ever owned thanks to a supportive surface with 1,000 pocketed coils that offer “zoned support” and a Tencel top cover made of all-natural, eco-friendly wood pulp. “This mattress is very solid. It’s comfy and plush, firm and supportive, cool and soft,” Zoë says. It’s everything you could possibly want in a mattress, and you can get it now for 20% off thanks to the site’s Holiday Sale.
Can’t decide whether you want a mattress with a firm or plush feel? A Layla mattress can give you both, literally. The brand uses a flippable design to give you two mattresses in one. One side of a Layla mattress features a more plush feel, while the other gives you the firmer more supportive sleeping experience. It’s great for someone still trying to determine their sleeping preferences or who just likes to change things up every so often. If you’re still a little hesitant, rest assured: contributor, Cheryl Dearborne, described Layla’s Hybrid mattress as “the most comfortable mattress” she’s ever owned and it gave her the “best sleep” she’s gotten in years. “[It’s] Firm enough to be supportive in the way I need it to be, but it still feels soft and cradling,” Cheryl says. “The quality of my sleep changed drastically and I wake up at a consistent time naturally because of this.” You can get this mattress for up to $250 off and two free pillows will get thrown in with your purchase.
A well-known furniture retailer, Ashley sells just about anything and everything you might need to fill your home, including quality mattresses.

At a generous 41% off, this 12-inch thick medium firm mattress will please even the fussiest of sleepers thanks to an internal support core that prevents motion transfer when sleeping with dogs or partners while the gentle memory foam hugs every contour of your body.
Former AD PRO editor Katy Olson suspected the “firm, but not overly so” Avocado mattress helped relieve some of her nightly allergy sneezing.

Happsy’s Organic Mattress is an excellent eco-friendly option thanks to 100% organic and nontoxic materials, including wool, cotton, certified latex and pocketed springs. Our tester, contributor Kristi Kellog, rated the Organic Mattress a 10/10 in comfort, saying that her and her husband were able to sleep soundly despite being a side sleeper and a back sleeper, respectively. She was also impressed by the delivery and set up processes, both of which went off without a hitch. Happsy also offers a generous 20-year warranty and a 120-night trial.

Already have a full bed of Parachute linens? Make sure to take it another step with the brand’s medium-firm Eco Comfort Mattress.

Everyone, stop whatever you’re doing. You do not want to miss out on this limited time killer deal from GhostBed: a whopping 50% off, taking the cost of this luxury mattress from a little over $3,000 to $1,548. Global director of editorial operations, Diane Dragen, tried out the GhostBed luxe in our best mattresses for side sleepers and gave it an 8 out of 10 in comfortability. Initially drawn in by GhostBed’s claims to provide a “super-relaxing blend of support and bounce,” Diane soon discovered the gel memory foam delivered on its promises to gently soothe her into sleep—despite her sleep position. “It’s very soothing and meditative to both get ready for and be in this bed, and it does feel like a luxury experience,” Diane explains. “During the night, with the GhostBed Luxe my lower body experiences the very pleasant feeling of almost skimming the top of the mattress, while my torso—especially vulnerable hip, shoulder, and back areas—is more lightly cradled, like on a beach of firm wet sand.” And right now you can get that dreamy sleep experience at one of the lowest prices you’ll probably ever see.
Another killer sale, you can currently save up to 50% at Molecule as well using code BFCM2023 at checkout.
