Tempur-Pedic mattress sale: Best July deals
Which Tempur-Pedic mattress should you buy?
US Tempur-Pedic mattresses
The UK and US Tempur ranges are different, and both are, in our opinion, far more complicated and confusing than they need to be. Let's start with the US selection.
There are three mattress types in TEMPUR-Pedic's US range: the TEMPUR-Cloud, the TEMPUR-Adapt and the TEMPUR-Breeze. Within each of those, there are various iterations to choose from.
Originally, there was also a more budget-friendly Tempur-Essential, but it's available only as a closeout item. (It doesn't qualify for returns.) Here's all the key info in a table, or read on for some more info.
| Line | Versions | Main benefit | Starting MSRP |
|---|---|---|---|
| TEMPUR-Cloud | Medium, Medium Hybrid | Cheapest overall option | $1,699 |
| TEMPUR-Adapt | Adapt (Medium, Medium Hybrid), ProAdapt (Soft, Medium, Firm, Medium Hybrid), LuxeAdapt (Soft, Firm) | Pressure relief | $1,699 |
| TEMPUR-breeze | PRObreeze (Medium, Medium Hybrid), LUXEbreeze (Soft, Firm) | Cooling | $4,099 |
The Tempur-Cloud is the cheapest of Tempur's US range (MSRP starting from $1,699). This is a boxed mattress that uses the original Tempur Material, and will deliver the classic Tempur experience, with excellent pressure relief and a soothing, sink-in feel, but if you go up the range you'll find extra features.
You can choose between two versions: the Medium (with no springs) and the Medium Hybrid (which adds a layer or springs). Go for the former if you're purely after pressure relief, or the latter if you want something with a little more pushback.
The addition of springs means this version has sturdier edge support, and will be easier to move about on than the Medium. That goes for all the Hybrid options mentioned below, too.
The Tempur-Adapt Collection sits in the middle of the US range. It also has a starting MSRP of $1,699 but otherwise costs up to $500 more than the Tempur-Cloud in sizes larger than a twin. The main selling point here is that it delivers even better pressure relief than the Cloud.
There are three iterations within this line, with different versions within those. So you can choose – deep breath – the Adapt (available as a Medium or Medium Hybrid), the ProAdapt (available in Soft, Medium, Firm, or Medium Hybrid) or the LuxeAdapt (in Soft or Firm).
The main difference between the Adapt, Pro, and Luxe is that they deliver better pressure relief and conform to your shape more as you move up the line, as a result of using slightly different versions of Tempur Material. Compared to the Cloud, you're also getting a zip-off, washable cover with the ProAdapt and the LuxeAdapt..
Finally, there's the Tempur-Breeze collection. It's the priciest option, with MSRP starting at a none-too-cool $4,099 in a twin long, but it does promise to keep you between 5 and 10 degrees cooler at night, which is pretty compelling if you sleep hot.
There are two versions to choose from, and again, sub-versions beyond that. There's the ProBreeze (in Medium or Medium Hybrid) and the LuxeBreeze (in Soft or Firm). The Luxe promises greater cooling power.
If all those are too expensive, you could opt for a topper instead. We rate Tempur's options amongst the very best mattress toppers you can buy, and a great way of grafting a Tempur feel onto another, totally different bed. They're not cheap, but they are much cheaper than buying a whole mattress. Currently, the brand only sells one topper based on the Tempur-Adapt model.
UK Tempur mattresses
Moving on to the UK line. Here, you've got five collections to choose from. The TEMPUR Cloud, TEMPUR Original, TEMPUR Sensation, TEMPUR Hybrid and One By Tempur. Because there's so many, we've consolidated the key info into a handy table.
| Line | Versions | Sleep feel | Lowest RRP |
|---|---|---|---|
| TEMPUR Cloud | Supreme, Elite, Lux | Soft | £1,499 |
| TEMPUR Original | Supreme, Elite, Lux | Medium | £1,499 |
| TEMPUR Sensation | Supreme, Elite, Lux | Firm | £1,499 |
| TEMPUR Hybrid | Supreme, Elite | Medium, with bounce | £1,499 |
| One By Tempur | Soft, Medium, Firm | Soft, Medium or Firm | £1,449 (double) |
In the UK, the mattresses are named based on their sleep feel. So the Cloud, Original and Sensation are all very similar in design, with the difference being that they're soft, medium and firm (respectively) to lie on. Each is made up of three materials, which we assume are all types of foams. The top layer is geared towards comfort, the second is geared towards support, and the bottom is designed to provide a firm base.
For each line, you can choose from three depths: 21cm ('Supreme'), 25cm ('Elite') or 30cm ('Lux'). No extra types of material get added, but the depth of the layers goes up as the mattress gets thicker.
The TEMPUR Hybrid is similar to the Original, but adds a layer of micro-coils beneath the support layer. This will bring with it a bit of bounce and more responsiveness than you'd find with an all-foam model, although it is buried fairly deep in the mattress. There's no super-thick option with this one, but you've still got Supreme and Elite depths to choose from. Head to our TEMPUR Hybrid review to find out what we thought when we tested this one out.
Finally, there's the One By Tempur. This one works differently from the rest of the range – you choose your sleep feel (from soft, medium and firm) and all are 20cm deep. It's also cheaper than the others in the UK line, and there's no Single option. In terms of design and sleep feel, though, we honestly have no idea what makes this different from the rest of the UK Tempur mattresses, other than it's slightly thinner than the thinnest of that main range. We're reaching out to Tempur to clarify.
Tempur Pedic offers a 90-night risk-free mattress trial. So if you don't love yours within that time, you'll get a refund and the mattress will be collected.
For an alternative that's cheaper yet no less premium, read our Saatva Classic mattress review. This luxury innerspring hybrid suits most sleepers and is often around $200 off in the Saatva mattress sale.
The best Tempur-Pedic mattress deals to shop
The Tempur-Cloud is the most affordable of the US range, although with a starting price of $1,699 it's still an investment (which is probably why so many of you are hunting for TEMPUR-Pedic mattress sales).
If you're looking for a classic Tempur experience, this will deliver it. Both versions have a medium sleep feel, and uses the original Tempur Material, which molds gently to your body to offer excellent pressure relief and motion isolation. Couples and those who suffer sore joints will benefit.
Another benefit is that as well as the foam-only Medium, it's available with springs in the form of the Medium Hybrid. It's slightly more expensive, but it promises a little more pushback, making it easier to move around on, and sturdier edge support too.
Potential downsides are that there's no removable cover on either version, and it doesn't offer as much pressure relief as the Adapt, or extra cooling prowess like the Breeze.

Sitting in the middle of the TEMPUR-Pedic range is the TEMPUR-Adapt. The USP here is that it's extra pressure relieving, compared to the cheaper Cloud. It's the cheapest of three Adapt models – this is the 11" version, scroll down for the 12" ProAdapt and the 13" LuxeAdapt.
The focus of the Adapt line is on pressure relief, and while the original Adapt is the least pressure relieving of the three, it should still excel in this area. That's thanks to a layer of original Tempur Material, which will mold to your body and gently cradle your joints.
Although it's not a specialist cooling bed like the Breeze, the cover has been upgraded to a cool-touch version. It's not removable here though – for that, you'll need to opt for the Pro or Luxe version. You also only have one sleep feel to choose from – medium – but you can buy this mattress either in an all-foam or a hybrid version. The latter has a layer of coils, to boost airflow through the bed and improve responsiveness, making it easier to move around on.

Sitting in the middle of the Adapt line is the ProAdapt. This model adds more Tempur Material compared to the basic Adapt (above), which elevates the profile to 12 inches and delivers even more pressure relief.
There's a cool-touch cover (although for maximum cooling you'll want to go for a Breeze model) and it's removable for washing here, which you won't find on the basic Adapt mattress.
You're spoiled for choice in terms of sleep feel here, with soft, medium and firm all-foam versions, as well as the option of a medium hybrid (which adds premium spring coils).
The LuxeAdapt is the only Tempur-Pedic mattress that features the company's advanced pressure-relief material, which responds and reacts to your body with expert precision. At 13", it's the deepest of the three Adapt mattresses. There's a choice of two comfort levels: soft or firm.
The soft mattress cradles you as you sleep, while the firmer option delivers the densest, most supportive sleep experience of the range. There's no hybrid option here, and no medium firmness option, although those are covered by the two other Adapt models.
As well as being the most pressure-relieving bed in the range, you're getting superior motion cancellation here, to help you achieve undisturbed sleep, making the Tempur-Pedic LuxeAdapt a particularly good mattress for anyone with a restless partner.
The top-tier TEMPUR-Breeze mattress sits near the top of our best cooling mattress guide because it offers two different levels of in-bed cooling. The PRObreeze promises to make you three degrees cooler, while the more expensive LUXEBreeze aims to make you eight degrees cooler.
There's a decent selection of options in terms of sleep feel, too – although not quite a complete range for each version. If you opt for the PRObreeze, you'll have a choice of a medium or medium hybrid (with additional spring layer). The LUXEbreeze, meanwhile, is available in soft or firm, but no medium options at all.
Tempur-Pedic's Breeze mattresses have been designed in response to research that suggests a cooler sleep environment helps you fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer with less tossing and turning. On top, a SmartClimate cover makes each mattress feel instantly cool when you lie down, and has a zip-off outer layer that's machine-washable.
Next, a PureCool layer will provide a cooling sensation for the next 20 minutes; and then over the next eight hours, an extremely breathable comfort layer will cycle out any heat or humidity trapped under the covers. This pro mattress tech comes at a cost. But if you're a hot sleeper, and can justify the price, the luxury Tempur-Breeze mattress is an excellent choice.

Tempur-Pedic Black Friday sale: analysis
If you're hoping to buy a cheap Tempur-Pedic mattress, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are good bets for scoring the lowest prices of the year. This has certainly been true over the past few years.
While you're waiting for the 2023 Tempur-Pedic Black Friday deal to drop, here's an idea of what to expect based on the discounts we've seen over the last three years:
Last year's Tempur-Pedic Black Friday sale
- 30% off the Tempur-Cloud
- $300 off the Tempur-Breeze and Tempur-Adapt
- 25% off the Tempur-Adapt mattress topper
Essential offer aside, we've seen these same deals matched or even bettered at multiple points over the course of the year. In short, they're nothing particularly special, although the fact the discounts have been going up each year is a promising sign.
Although you'll find Tempur-Pedic mattresses at several other retailers including Amazon, Mattress Firm, and Pottery Barn, those stores are likely to follow Tempur-Pedic's lead for Black Friday and Cyber Monday. However, if Tempur-Pedic happens to sell out of the mattress you want, at least you'll have options to shop elsewhere.
Tempur-Pedic isn't always the most generous with its discounts, compared to other brands, so we're not necessarily expecting a showstopping Black Friday sale. That said, we'd hope for a huge deal on at least one of the mattresses – our money's on the Tempur-Cloud, which is the current cheapest model, although the Tempur-Essential could possibly make one final appearance with a hefty 40% off.
In the meantime, find out if the Tempur-Adapt is worth buying from Black Friday according to one of our seasoned mattress reviewers.
