Independence Day is over, but 4th of July mattress sales are still live. Retailers from Purple to DreamCloud have extended their deals on many beds featured in our best mattress guide. That makes now a great time to replace your aging mattress for a new bed.
One of our favorite deals right now comes courtesy of Nectar. While it's common to see 33% off at Nectar, the brand's current sale applies to its new (2023) Nectar Premier Hybrid Mattress (queen) which is on sale for $1,199. This is an incredible mattress that I personally reviewed and said cradles your body, but also offers plenty of support thanks to its hybrid (memory foam/coils) construction.
Likewise, Brooklyn Bedding, which holds a spot in our best hybrid mattress guide, is now taking 30% off sitewide. That's their biggest discount of the year. The Aurora Luxe Cooling Mattress (queen) is now on sale for $1,585 (was $2,265). We named this bed the best hybrid cooling mattress for those who sleep hot.
Generally speaking, mattress deals can be found throughout the year, but major holidays like the 4th of July are the best time to make mattress purchases as they offer lower prices than your traditional summer sale. So I've created a guide to this year's best 4th of July mattress sales. I've been covering retail holidays for over 10 years and can distinguish a good deal from a mediocre sale. Additionally, I've been tracking mattress prices all year, so I know when something is really on sale and when it's a bogus discount.
Make sure to bookmark this page for the best sales this week. For a list of more deals, make sure to check out our 4th of July sales guide.

Tips for buying a mattress on 4th of July
Buying a mattress is a major investment, so it pays to do some homework before making a purchase. Because prices are so low, many people wait specifically for 4th of July mattress sales to buy a new mattress, but that doesn't always guarantee you'll get the best deal or the best bed for your budget. Here are a few tips to ensure you get the best 4th of July mattress sale possible.
- 4th of July vs. Prime Day: July is a busy month for deals. Not only will we see 4th of July deals, but we'll also see plenty of deals on Prime Day. So from a consumer point of view — should you buy a mattress on the 4th of July or on Prime Day? Generally speaking, we recommend you buy in July. 4th of July mattress sales offer better and wider discounts as it's a day when you'll find deals from all mattress brands. For Prime Day, Amazon tends to offer the best deals on its own line of hardware, which doesn't include mattresses. That's not to say we won't see any Prime Day mattress deals. But the better bargains will be found on Independence Day.
- Shop around for mattress coupons: The vast majority of mattress manufacturers offer coupons that can save you a few extra dollars or get you a free bedding bundle with your mattress purchase. Make sure to check out our Nectar Promo codes and Tempur-Pedic promo codes for today's best coupons.
- Look for freebies with your purchase: Dollar-off discounts are the way to go when it comes to shopping for a new mattress. But we also recommend looking for freebies that can sweeten your purchase even more. Bundles can include a free mattress protector, sheet set, or pillows.
- Find the best warranty possible: The downside to online mattress shopping is that you can't try out a mattress before you buy it. Fortunately, most mattress manufacturers offer extended trials accompanied by warranties that last 10 or more years. Nectar, for example, offers a 365-night home trial bundled with a forever warranty. To be fair, not all mattress retailers are as generous, but it's worth knowing the warranty and return policy before buying your new mattress.
- Invest as much as you can: A mattresses is something you buy maybe once every 10 years. It's also something you use for hours every day. As a result, you'll want to invest in a good mattress, rather than opting for the cheapest mattress you can find. Not only will your back thank you, but you'll also avoid having to buy a new mattress more frequently.
Is 4th of July a good time to buy a mattress?
Independence Day is one of the best times to buy a mattress. While the deals aren't as aggressive as Black Friday or even Labor Day, 4th of July mattress sales offer the best discounts of the summer. You'll see a mix of dollar-off discounts as well as free gift sets bundled with your mattress purchase. (Some of the best 4th of July mattress sales tend to offer both). Bottom line: if you need to buy a new mattress and can afford to wait a few weeks, we highly recommend you hold out till the first 4th of July mattress sales launch.
