With Bear’s October mattress deal you can enjoy 35% off mattresses and up to 50% off bundles at Bear, for a major price drop on our top-rated cooling bed; the Bear Elite Hybrid. This flagship mattress impressed our team with its cooling powers and in the 35% off sale a queen Elite Hybrid is now only $1,484.60 (was $2,284.)
The Elite Hybrid rates among the best mattresses we’ve tested and with three firmness levels available, there’s an option for almost every sleeper. But it’s not the only bed you can save on in the Bear October deals, so keep reading for our guide to the discounts on all the most popular Bear mattresses.
All Bear mattresses come with a limited lifetime warranty and the new 3Z 365-night sleep trial, so you get market leading benefits alongside your bed. And keep an eye out for flash sales — we’ve seen plenty of short-lived mattress sales from Bear in recent months, so it pays to be on the ball.
This month's Bear mattress sales: Top deals
Which Bear mattress should you buy?
Bear mattress has a small line-up but with foam and hybrid beds to choose from, there's still a good mix to suit most sleep styles.
The Bear Original is the brand's entry-level option, available in both memory foam and hybrid models. A queen all-foam will typically set you back around $700, depending on the discount. The Original mattresses are a good value choice — excellent if it's your first time buying a mattress.
For extra edge support and a more traditional spring feel, the Bear Pro collection offers a more "luxury hotel mattress feel". Like the Original, the Pro is available in both a foam and hybrid design. A queen hybrid often sells for around $1,200-$1,300, which places it among mid-range hybrid mattresses.
The Bear Elite Hybrid is the brand's premium option, offering three varying levels of firmness, a cool-to-the-touch phase-change top cover and 5-zoned ergonomic support. Queen prices can vary but this bed often slips into the luxury mattress category — expect to pay upwards of $1,400. Want more support? Check out the Bear Elite Hybrid Ultra.

The Bear Original is a 10-inch, 3-layer foam mattress. It includes a base layer of supportive foam to prevent sagging and create a medium-firm finish, a layer of Bear Dynamic Foam to alleviate pressure and provide support, and a top layer of cooling gel-infused memory foam to help draw away heat.
In our Bear Original mattress review, we found it comfortable to sleep on regardless of whether we rested on our back, front or side. (But lighter individuals may need time to break it in as it's on the firmer side.)
Despite the gel-infused foam layer and a breathable quilt cover, it's not particularly cooling. However, the Bear Original is aces when it comes to edge support and motion isolation.
This mattress comes in six sizes, from twin to Cal king, as well as a split king option. Like most mattresses, the Bear Original has not been immune to inflation-induced cost increases, but it's still rather affordable – especially considering its frequent sales.
With three firmness levels to choose from, a plush Euro top to deliver endless pressure relief, and a 5-zone coil system for targeted support, the Bear Elite Hybrid has a wide appeal.
But what really stood out to us was its cooling prowess. The Bear Elite uses a Celliant-infused cover, which takes excess heat and converts it into infrared energy. On our thermal cam, we watched as the heat built and then quickly dropped, ensuring you stay at a comfortable temperature all night long.
Available in twin to split king, the MSRP for this mattress runs from $1,998 to $2,284. Thankfully, regular sales bring this mattress down to as low as $1,400.
Bear Mattress Black Friday: What happened
Bear reserves its biggest discounts for major holidays and shopping events. Bear's early access Black Friday sale cut 35% off and included free bedding with purchase, but our semi-exclusive code TOMS40 instead knocked 40% off. Combined, it's the largest saving we've seen from the brand.
In 2026, we've seen the same Bear mattress deal return several times (with and without the bedding offer). However, Bear often runs flash sales, with the 40% saving only sticking around for a few days.
For this Black Friday, we're predicting Bear will kick off the sales in November with a 35% discount, boosting it to 40% off closer to the big day itself. So patience might pay off here — don't simply shop the first offer you see.
Bear mattress sales FAQs
Do you need a Bear mattress promo code?
Most Bear mattress deals require a promo code, but they're not hard to find. Bear advertises its mattresses at the reduced price of whatever discount or deal it's running at the time, but you do still need to apply this promo code at checkout to get the best price.
Often, these promo codes will be displayed front and center on the Bear mattress website, so it's easy to know you've got the best deal at the time. However, some of these codes are exclusive to our readers, so checking out this sales hub will avail you of the best coupon discounts.
Some Bear mattress deals also include freebies such as pillows or other sleep accessories. These will be added automatically to your basket when you buy qualifying items, without the need for a promo code.
Are Bear Mattresses sold in stores?
For peace of mind, Bear includes a 120-night sleep trial with all of its mattresses, and all returns are free of charge.
However, you may feel more comfortable seeing a Bear Mattress up close before you decide to buy. That's why Bear has partnered with showrooms across the country to display and sell their beds.
Granted, there aren't a lot of locations, but if you live close to one, it's a great chance to try a Bear Mattress yourself.
How long do Bear Mattresses last?
Bear used to offer a 10-year mattress warranty with its beds, which is within the standard lifespan of a mattress-in-a-box.
But as of this year, all Bear mattresses come with a lifetime warranty, which means your mattress is covered for as long as you own it. (As with all mattress warranties, it won't transfer if you sell or donate it.)
Does that mean you can expect your Bear mattress to last longer than 10 years? That depends. A lot can influence how long you can expect your mattress to last, from proper care to the quality of the materials.
However long your Bear mattress should last you, it's always important to know the tell-tale signs of when it's time to replace a mattress.
