The Purple Original is the best-selling signature mattress for the well-known sleep brand, and right now you can get your hands on a king size bed for less. Head to Purple today and you'll save $400 on the Purple Original, with a king reduced to $1,599 (was $1,799). That's double the savings offered by its Black Friday deal back in November, which only knocked $200 off.

Our panel of testers rate the Purple Original as one of the best mattresses for comfort and support, and our Purple Original mattress review found that it doesn't trap heat like other memory foam boxed mattresses either. While some sleepers may find it difficult to adjust to the slightly unusual feel (caused by the brand's own GelFlexGrid technology), the Purple mattress has excellent pressure relief and couples will benefit from its top-notch motion isolation.

The Purple Original comes on a 100-night trial and has a 10-year warranty, plus free shipping and returns. While Purple mattress deals do sometimes throw in free gifts, such as pillows, that offer isn’t currently available. However, if you’re looking to get your hands on one of the best mattresses in a box for less and before Christmas, then jump on this sale while it's still around.

Summary: The Purple Original is superb for side sleepers thanks to the cushioning support it provides to the hips, shoulders, and knees, though its medium-firm feel should suit most sleepers. It's also a great bed for those who suffer from aches and pains, as the 2” surface layer adapts to your movements to constantly relieve aching joints. As well as delivering contouring comfort, the brand’s innovative Gel Flex grid technology also dissipates heat, making the best memory foam mattresses for a cooler night’s sleep. In the Tom's Guide review of the Purple Original, our reviewers found that the mattress is ideal for couples as its polymer technology reduced motion transfer well. While we did feel that the edge support could have used some improvement (our reviewers felt they were sinking when they sat on the edge of the bed), our experience with this mattress has been largely positive.

Price history: Purple mattress sales happen most months, but the brand can be a little frugal with its discounts compared to rivals such as Nectar and DreamCloud. The Black Friday deal shaved $200 off the Purple Original, meaning this current $400 off deal is double the Black Friday and Cyber Week discount. The discount on a king ($1,399 down from $1,799) also beats Purple’s average deals, which range from 10-15% off.

Benefits: 100 night trial | 10 Year warranty | Free shipping
