The Best Labor Day Mattress Sales

Amerisleep sells three fairly standard mattresses, but what does set them apart a bit is the company’s Bio-Pur foam, a memory-foam alternative made from plant-based materials and significantly less petrochemicals than true polyurethane foam. The brand says it also is bouncier and more breathable than traditional memory foam. For Labor Day, take up to $500 off any mattress with code LD500. You can also get 20 percent off pillows, toppers, and sheets with the code LD20.

Get up to 20 percent off Avocado’s line of mattresses made with natural and nontoxic materials, no code needed. Avocado is also offering up to 50 percent off bedding and 10 percent off furniture and pillows — it’s not a huge discount, but that’s about as good as it ever gets at Avocado, which does make some of my favorite latex pillows.

Like Avocado, Awara makes its mattresses with natural materials. It doesn’t have quite as many models as Avocado, but all three of Awara’s beds are good, affordable latex-hybrid options. For Labor Day, the brand is offering up to 50 percent off mattresses.

Bear is offering 35 percent off sitewide with the code STRAT35. Each mattress purchase includes a free bedding bundle that contains two pillows, a sheet set, and a mattress protector. Its mattresses range from the ultrabasic Bear Original to the luxe Bear Elite Hybrid, but all include the option of adding a cover made from Celliant performance fabric, which is intended to promote muscle recovery.

Bedgear sells a few different mattresses, including a modular one that you can customize to your preferences by swapping out comfort layers. You can also customize each side of the bed to have a different firmness level — ideal for those who have a partner with opposite preferences. The brand is offering up to $500 off mattresses, as well as some buy-one-get-one 50 percent off deals on pillows and sheets.

Use the code STRAT25 for 25 percent off sitewide at Birch. Plus with each mattress purchase, you’ll get two free Eco-Rest pillows — plush down-alternatives filled with recycled PET (a.k.a. plastic bottles). Birch offers two mattresses, the Birch Natural and a Luxe version, as well as a child’s mattress. Former Strategist editor Maxine Builder described the Birch Natural as supportive yet plush: “A dream for a stomach sleeper like me, who tosses and turns throughout the night.”

Brentwood Home manufactures the majority of its products in California with a bent toward natural materials and ecofriendly processes. For Labor Day, the brand is offering 10 percent off mattresses, but there are deeper discounts on other products, including 60 percent off adjustable bed bases, 50 percent off crib mattresses, and 50 percent off throw blankets.

This Arizona-based mattress-maker is offering 25 percent off sitewide with code STRAT25. In addition to nice hybrid beds like the Brooklyn Bedding Aurora Luxe and the Signature Hybrid, Brooklyn Bedding also makes the ultrafirm Plank, which is one of our favorite firm mattresses, and the Titan Plus, which offers additional support for heavier folks.

Casper is offering 30 percent off all mattresses, so it’s a good time to buy a bed from its new lineup of mattresses that launched earlier this year. Senior editor Kiki Aranita is a big fan of the brand’s flagship model, the Casper One, and says it has an ideal middle-of-the-road firmness.

DreamCloud makes three memory-foam mattresses — the Original, the Premier, and the Premier Rest — as well as a hybrid version of each. For Labor Day, the brand is taking up to 55 percent off all mattresses.

If you’re shopping for a latex pillow, mattress, or mattress topper, Eco Terra is a good brand to check out. It’s taking $400 off its latex mattresses and up to 40 percent off toppers for Labor Day.

For Labor Day, Emma is running its usual deal of taking up to half off mattresses.

Helix is offering up to 27 percent off sitewide with the code STRAT27 and throwing in two free pillows with any mattress purchase. Helix mattresses are divided into three lines — Core, Luxe, and Elite — which each contain six mattresses ranging from ultrasoft to ultrafirm. The Core mattresses are the cheapest and most minimal; the Elite are the most expensive and extravagant (seriously, they are some of the most luxurious mattresses I’ve seen).

This purveyor of all things latex is offering up to $600 off mattresses, as well as up to 40 percent off latex toppers.

Layla is offering up to $200 off mattresses and throwing in two free pillows with each mattress purchase. Both of the brand’s mattresses are twofers because they are flippable with a soft and a firm side. Strategist writer Tembe Denton-Hurst tested the Layla Hybrid and says that both sides were supportive, but she appreciated the option to flip the mattress because she ultimately preferred the softer side.

Leesa is taking 30 percent off select mattresses, bedding, and bed bases, as well as 15 percent off kids’ mattresses. Leesa sells a wide selection of mattresses, including our favorite all-foam mattress, the Leesa Original. Each mattress purchase will also get you two free pillows and a set of sheets.

The Nectar Original is one of the most popular memory-foam mattresses on the market — it’s currently our top pick for memory foam. Nectar is offering up to 40 percent off the Nectar Original and the rest of its mattresses.

Take 35 percent off sitewide at Nolah, and select mattresses will also come with two free pillows. Nolah sells a good variety of mattresses at different price points, including hybrids, all-foam mattresses, and even a natural latex hybrid option.

The maker of our favorite latex mattress, PlushBeds, is taking up to 50 percent off all mattresses and throwing in a free bedding bundle with every mattress purchase, so you’ll also get two pillows, a sheet set, and a mattress protector.

Purple — the brand known for its squishy, flexible purple grid layer — has several mattresses on sale. That biggest discount is on the Rejuvenate line of mattresses (which is quite expensive), but the brand is also offering up to $200 off the (more modestly priced) original Purple mattress.

Saatva makes our favorite mattress overall, the Saatva Classic, and right now the brand is offering up to $600 off mattress purchases. You can also save $100 on adjustable bases and frames when purchased with a mattress. I’ve tested several Saatva mattresses and find them to be really high quality, and the company provides free white-glove delivery, meaning it will deliver your new mattress, set it up in your room of choice, and take away your old mattress, too.

Longtime mattress-maker Sealy is taking up to $300 off mattresses in its Posturepedic Plus collection and will include a free bundle of pillows, sheets, and a mattress protector with your purchase. Take $450 off the Posturepedic Hybrid with the code PPHYBRID, bringing it down to $799 for a queen size. Or take $200 off the Posturepedic Spring with code PPSPRING, bringing it down to $599 for a queen size. Sealy is also offering up to 35 percent off its budget-friendly Cocoon by Sealy mattresses.

Already a budget-friendly brand, Siena is offering a discount of up to 50 percent off its Siena Memory Foam, Essential Memory Foam, and Premier Hybrid mattresses. That last one is the most expensive, but it’s still under $1,000 at full price for a queen.

Take $300 off Stearns & Foster’s Studio and Estate models, $600 off the Lux Estate and Lux Hybrid, and $700 off the Reserve. I’ve tested a Lux Estate model and can confirm it is quite luxe — like what you’d expect to sleep on in a high-end hotel.

I’m a big fan of Tempur-Pedic’s mattresses — they offer the classic “hugging” feel of memory foam in a way many other beds can’t compete with. But they are expensive, so sales are always welcome. Use the code CLOUD30 for 30 percent off the affordable, bed-in-a-box Tempur-Cloud mattress. Other models are discounted by up to $500 off, no code needed. My favorite mattress topper is also 40 percent off with the code TOPPERS40.

Vaya is a small brand that makes just two mattresses — one all-foam and one hybrid. You can get either one for $300 off with the code VAYA300. The brand is also offering 15 percent off platform beds with the code LD15.

Take $300 off all mattresses, of any size, at WinkBeds. The WinkBed is our top pick for the all-around best mattress for back pain, in part because it comes in four firmness levels (including a Plus option for heavy folks). It’s a versatile and sturdy mattress — New York features editor Katy Schneider has been sleeping on one for six years and still loves it.

Zoma sells three different mattresses — one all-foam option and two hybrids. It also sells a few pillows, bedding items, and frames. For Labor Day, Zoma is taking 25 percent off any mattress with the code SLEEP25 and 20 percent off pillows with the code LDPILLOWS, as well as discounting mattress-and-adjustable-base bundles.
