If you’re in the market for a new mattress, you might be able to find a good price on a great model right now. Plenty of reputable mattress brands are running summer sales with deals that rival what we tend to see during holiday weekends. However, if you’re willing to wait a little while longer, Labor Day is just around the corner, and this is when we tend to see even steeper discounts.
We keep tabs on the mattresses that do well in Consumer Reports’ tests to show you the best offers on high-quality models from top brands such as Essentia, Avocado, Nolah, Serta, and more. The prices listed below are for the queen-size version, but all other sizes are similarly discounted.
There are also plenty of great discounts on everything you’ll need for a great night’s sleep, including pillows, sheets, sleep masks, and other accessories CR has evaluated. And if you’re a CR member, you may be able to take advantage of some exclusive mattress and bedding deals. You’ll need to be logged in to see the details.

CR members can check out our mattress ratings to see how well more than 200 models do in our tests for supporting people of all sizes, whether you sleep on your side or your back. Our mattress selector can also help you narrow down your choices.

If you’re looking for an affordable firm mattress, the Serta Sheer Slumber mattress fits the bill. It lands a 9 out of 10 on our firmness scale, and, with a price of under $500, it’s one of the more affordable foam mattresses in our ratings. Overall, this mattress-in-a-box offers impressive support for most sleepers, with the exception of large side sleepers, who can expect only average support. Serta foam mattresses receive so-so scores for comfort and predicted reliability, according to CR member surveys.
Why it’s a good deal: This is the same sale price that was available during Prime Day.
The My Green Mattress Natural Escape innerspring model topped with latex foam earns near-perfect ratings for back and spine support, no matter the sleeper’s size or favored sleep position. But like most innersprings in CR’s ranking for the best mattresses for hot sleepers, this mattress-in-a-box receives just an average rating for stability, which means sleepers may feel vibration from a partner’s tossing and turning. On a firmness scale of 1 to 10, this mattress lands right in the middle, with a 5. While the brand received an above-average score for comfort in CR member surveys, its owner satisfaction rating was just average.
Why it’s a good deal: With the code GoGreen, you can take 10 percent off this mattress, putting the price at just $30 more than the low we saw for July Fourth.
The Essentia Stratami serves petite and average-sized back sleepers best, earning a top-tier rating in terms of support. (Large/tall back sleepers and side sleepers of all sizes will experience decent support, too, given its nearly as impressive scores in those categories.) It’s only 8 inches thick and has a firmness-scale score of 6 out of 10, similar to that of the all-foam Casper. The Essentia is the only mattress from our top four innerspring and foam lists to receive a top rating in both owner satisfaction and reliability, according to data from our CR members survey.
Why it’s a good deal: This is one of the most expensive mattresses in CR’s ratings, so this sale is a worthwhile opportunity to save. The 20 percent discount will automatically apply at checkout.
This online-only mattress-in-a-box retailer has a 30 percent discount on its mattresses, including its namesake mattress, the GhostBed, which is worth a look. The deal also includes two free pillows, a common extra when buying directly from a mattress brand.
The queen-size GhostBed does well in our tests for supporting petite people who sleep on their back, and it earns top marks for durability, which means it shows little change in performance after 8 to 10 years of simulated use in our tests.
Why it’s a good deal: This is the standard sale price for this mattress, which has remained unchanged for months. CR members may even be able to save a little bit more. Just log in to see the details.
If you’re looking for a softer mattress that offers support, the Nolah Natural may just fit the bill. It gets above-average ratings for people of all sleep styles and sizes, and it shines when it comes to durability. The only place it falls short is in stabilization, where it gets middling scores in CR’s tests.
Why it’s a good deal: Nolah’s Summer Sale takes 30 percent off the list price, matching the lowest we’ve seen all year.
The Puffy Lux Hybrid innerspring/foam mattress-in-a-box comes through with above-average support for nearly every size and style of sleeper. The exception: large and tall back sleepers. The durability is impressive but stability is just average, which could leave sleepers feeling vibration from a partner’s movements. And this model doesn’t make shifting sleep positions easy. With a firmness rating of 1 out of 10, it’s quite soft.
Why it’s a good deal: The code JULYOFFER takes a lot off the list price of this mattress, matching the low price we tend to see during holiday sales. If you’re a digital CR member, log in to save just a bit more.
Avocado makes some top-notch mattresses, and this sale is a great chance to save on one. (The Green usually goes for $1,999, and the Green Pillowtop is priced at $2,499.) Both Avocado mattresses support a wide range of side- and back-sleeper body types. On our firmness scale, the Avocado Green is very firm and the Green Pillowtop is medium-firm.
Why it’s a good deal: This is the standard discount we tend to see for these mattresses. And CR members may be able to save even more.
Bear Mattress is offering 35 percent off sitewide for the Fourth of July. A mattress purchase will also get you two Cloud pillows, a sheet set, and a mattress protector at no extra cost. The company typically includes only pillows outside of big sales like this.
The Bear Original foam mattress performs well in our tests, and it’s a good choice for back and side sleepers who are petite or of average height. (Tall folks may want to look elsewhere.) CR’s tests found that this mattress tends to retain heat, so it may be best for those who sleep cooler.
Why it’s a good deal: This mattress is just $50 more than the best price we’ve seen, making it a great time to buy. Just use the code SUMMER at checkout.
The Solaire mattress by Saatva is made with certified organic materials, a plus for those who prefer that their bedding be organic and don’t mind the cost. It offers impressive and stable support for all sleepers. Saatva air mattresses also receive high praise for both comfort and owner satisfaction in our member survey.
Why it’s a good deal: Saatva’s July Fourth Sale puts the price of the mattress at a whopping $200 more than the lowest we’ve seen, so we recommend waiting to see if you can get a bigger discount around Labor Day or, if you’re a CR member, checking out our exclusive Saatva offer to see if you can save even more.
