Save $400
1. Saatva Classic (twin): was $1,449 now $1,049 at Saatva

This luxury handcrafted innerspring hybrid is our top-rated hotel-style mattress (and our favorite mattress overall). With $400 off in the Saatva 4th of July mattress sales a queen is $1,829 (was $2,829) but this is one mattress that's definitely worth the splurge. It's available in three feels and the targeted lumbar support helps reduce aches and pains. It also comes with world class benefits, including a 365-night trial, lifetime warranty and free white glove delivery.

The Helix Midnight Luxe is our best mattress for side sleepers and the plush pillow-top gives it an indulgent finish.

For hot sleepers who want to sleep luxuriously cool, there's no better choice than the Bear Elite, our best cooling mattress. Use code TOMS40 to beat the standard saving and reduce a queen from $2,284 to $1,370. The airy design and Celliant infusion are excellent kicking out excess heat, while the choice of three firmness levels add versatility. A 120-night trial and forever warranty are included.

Avocado is a leading latex mattress brand and the Avocado Green pairs eco-friendly materials with a luxury finish. 15% off is the best sale you'll get from Avocado and knocks the firm mattress — best for back and stomach sleepers — down to $1,699 for a queen, from $1,999. The breathable design and all over support makes it one of the best organic mattresses and a one-year trial and a 25-year warranty are included.

5. WinkBed Mattress (twin)
3 feels | Couples' bed | Back support
Save 30%
5. WinkBed Mattress (twin): was $1,427 now $999 at WinkBeds

A "consistently supportive" mattress with exceptional motion isolation, the WinkBed is a good choice for couples who've struggled to find a mattress they agree on. WinkBed's sale is the same year-round but with a queen just $1,799 (was $2,570), plus a 120-night trial and forever warranty, it's good value for a hybrid mattress. It also comes in a Plus version ($1,999 for a queen), for those with a bigger build.

Our WinkBed Mattress review: ★★★★
User score: ★★★★★ (8,500+ review)

6. Saatva Solaire (twin XL)
Adjustable feel | Hotel-style
Save $400
6. Saatva Solaire (twin XL): was $3,499 now $3,099 at Saatva

Adjustable mattresses and smart beds are increasingly common, but it's rare to see these high-tech solutions in a luxury package. The Saatva Solaire, however, pairs the brand's signature white-and-gold hotel style with 50 levels of changeable firmness, for targeted comfort. $400 off reduces a queen to $4,199 (was $4,599) and Saatva's team will deliver, set up and demonstrate the bed for free.

7. Brooklyn Bedding ThermoBalance LX Elite (twin)
3 feels | Cooling
Save $699.60
7. Brooklyn Bedding ThermoBalance LX Elite (twin): was $2,332 now $1,632.40 at Brooklyn Bedding

The new ThermoBalance collection from Brooklyn Bedding features the brand's most premium mattresses and, according to our review team, the LX Elite is worth the upgrade. Three firmness levels are available and a queen is $2,239.30 (was $3,199) in the 30% off 4th of July sales. You won't see a better discount from Brooklyn Bedding and LX Elite's superior temperature regulation makes it a top choice in the summer heat.

8. Purple Rejuvenate (twin)
Back support | Side sleepers
Save $500
8. Purple Rejuvenate (twin): was $4,899 now $4,399 at Purple

The GelFlex Grid gives Purple mattresses a unique form of pressure relief, contouring to the body to cradle every inch of you. The Rejuvenate mattress pairs this with 8" of coils, active response foam and breathable gel for enhanced support. You'll pay a high price — the current sale is among Purple's largest and a queen is still $4,999 (was $5,499) — but there's no other bed like it. However, the 10-year warrant and 100-night trial are disappointing for this price bracket.

Our Purple Rejuvenate mattress review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★★ (50+ reviews)

9. Essentia Stratami (twin)
Medium-firm | Eco-friendly
Save 25%
9. Essentia Stratami (twin): was $3,599 now $2,699.25 at Organic Essentia

Our Essentia Stratami review team praised the "superb build-quality" of this organic mattress, which uses layers of latex foam (no springs) to create full body support and a breathable feel. 25% off is a larger sale than usual from Essentia, reducing a queen to $3,524.25 (was $4,699) and you get two free pillows (follow this link to add them to your cart as they won't appear automatically). A 120-night trial and 20-year warranty are included.

Best luxury 4th of July mattress deals: Also recommended

These mattresses didn't earn the same high scores as the ones above but the're still a great pick if you're looking for a luxury bed...

1. Stearns & Foster Estate (twin long)
3 feels | Hotel-style
Save $200
1. Stearns & Foster Estate (twin long): was $1,899 now $1,699 at Stearns & Foster

The Estate mattress is a traditional hybrid with an option for almost every sleep style (we tested the firm pillow top). Alongside $200 off, you'll get a $300 VISA gift card with your purchase — a rare double-deal from the brand. A queen start at $1,799 in the sale (was $1,999) while the pillow-top options are $2,399 (was $2,599). The 90-night trial and 10-year warranty are average but you do get free white glove delivery.

2. Helix Sunset Luxe (twin)
Soft | Side sleepers
Save 25%
2. Helix Sunset Luxe (twin): was $1,492 now $1,119 at Helix Sleep

The Midnight Luxe above might be our favorite in the Helix 4th of July sales, but the Sunset will appeal to side sleepers looking for something softer. The prices and benefits are the same (a queen is $1,874 down from $2,498 and you get a 120-night trial and forever warranty) so this is all a matter of preference — go for the Sunset Luxe if you want deeper cushioning.

Our Helix Sunset Luxe mattress review: ★★★★

3. DreamCloud Ultra Hybrid (twin)
Soft | Side sleepers
Save $908
3. DreamCloud Ultra Hybrid (twin): was $2,407 now $1,499 at DreamCloud

"Marshmallow-y soft" and with "sensational pressure relief", our lead tester was full of praise for the DreamCloud Ultra Hybrid, although she did admit it was tough to move around on. With a queen $2,099 in the DreamCloud mattress sale there are better value deals but it might be worth the indulgence if you want to feel enveloped in luxury. And the benefits are also premium: a 365-night trial and lifetime warranty.

Our DreamCloud Ultra Hybrid mattress review: ★★★½
