From our favorite duvets to beds featured in our best mattress guide, Labor Day mattress sales are still available. Many of these deals will last through the week and are knocking up to $700 off our favorite mattresses. So if you've been holding off on buying a new bed, this week's Labor Day mattress sales are a great opportunity to upgrade to a new bed.
One of our favorite sales comes of Nectar. Currently, the Editor's Choice Nectar Mattress is $200 off (opens in new tab) and includes a free $499 bedding set (opens in new tab) with the purchase of any mattress. This is our top value mattress as it offers excellent comfort and support for the price.
Likewise, Saatva is taking from $200 to $500 off all mattresses (opens in new tab). The Saatva mattress is a hybrid mattress — it's made from both memory foam and coils — that sits at the top of our mattress guide. It's an excellent value if you want a premium bed, but without the high sticker price. After discount, the Saatva Classis is $998 ($200 off), whereas the queen is $1,570 ($200 off).
Even if you're not shopping for a new bed, Labor Day mattress deals are a great opportunity to save on bed sheets, pillows, weighted blankets and more. Tempur-Pedic, for example, is offering up to 20% off mattress toppers and pillow bundles from $58 (opens in new tab). (During Independence Day, these same deals started at $79). Today's sale includes the new Tempur-Adapt Topper, which is now 20% off and on sale for the first time since its launch.
While there are plenty of mattress discounts throughout the year, Labor Day mattress sales tend to offer the lowest prices of the year. (They're beaten only by sales we see in November during Black Friday and Cyber Monday). Prices are lower than usual this year because mattress manufacturers are sitting on extra inventory, which is causing a rise in mattress sales. So we're gathering our best shopping tips so that you can make the most of this year's best Labor Day mattress sales.

Tips for buying a mattress on Labor Day
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 Labor Day 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 sale possible.
- Look for dollar-off discounts instead of percentages: Flashy slogans like 50% off are designed to grab your attention. But a percentage off means nothing if you don't know the dollar-off discount. Always look at the original price and the final/discounted price before you make a final buying decision, that way you'll know just how much you really saved.
- 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.
- 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. Nectar, which makes our favorite mattress of all time, always offers free $399 bedding bundle (opens in new tab) with its mattress purchases. The bundle includes a free mattress protector, sheet set, and 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 (opens in new tab) bundled with a forever warranty (opens in new tab). 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.
Look for mattress coupons
Mattress manufacturers occasionally offer discounts via coupon codes. Some brands are upfront about their promo codes and list them on their respective websites. Others have the tendency to hide them. Either way, they're a quick and easy way to save on your Labor Day mattress sales purchases. Make sure to check out our guide to the best coupons via our guides: Nectar promo codes, Tempur Pedic promo codes, Purple promo codes, Casper promo codes, DreamCloud coupons, and Awara promo codes.
