Best Labor Day mattress sales live now — editor's choice
1. DreamCloud Classic mattress: twin now $399 plus $599 of free bedding at DreamCloud
While this price is no surprise (we see this DreamCloud mattress sale run throughout the year), it’s still the best value Labor Day deal out there. The DreamCloud Classic is a luxury hybrid mattress for an affordable price. It comes in a medium-firm feel that strikes the perfect balance of support, keeping the spine aligned, and comfort, offering exceptional pressure relief. Side sleepers, back sleepers and even some stomach sleepers will find this an excellent choice. A queen is $649, but the real Labor Day kicker is a free bedding bundle (worth $599). Throw in a lifetime warranty, free shipping and returns and a 365-night sleep trial, and it’s hands down the best Labor Day mattress deal our team have found this year.
Our review: ★★★★½
User score: ★★★★½ (based on 9,200+ reviews)
2. Saatva Classic mattress: twin was $1,399 now $999 at Saatva
Not only is the Saatva Classic voted as the best mattress available online, it’s also the best hybrid mattress we’ve tested this year. With specialist lumbar support from high-density memory foams and innerspring coils, as well as luxury cushioning feel thanks to the Euro top layer, it’s an indulgent mattress that will suit just about anyone. While it inevitably sits at a higher price point than the DreamCloud, it’s still excellent value for what you get. With $400 off in the Saatva Labor Day sale, a queen has dropped to $1,739 (was $2,139), which is likely the lowest price you’ll see for the rest of the year. Expect free white glove delivery, a 365-night trial and a forever warranty, too.
3. Zinus 10” Green Tea Memory Foam mattress: Twin was $179 now $161.66 at Amazon
Whether you’re looking for a new budget bed, a guest room mattress or a bed that’ll refresh your dorm room, this Zinus memory foam bed is a great choice at a super low price. While you won’t get the kind of durability that comes with this year’s best memory foam mattresses, our team of testers were impressed by the excellent pressure relief of the Zinus mattress. Three layers of foam create a plush feel best suited to side sleepers, although lighter weight back sleepers might find it supportive enough, too. At $198 for a queen (was $220), it’s an absolute steal. This also includes a 10-year warranty, which is an excellent perk for such a budget option.
4. Helix Midnight Luxe mattress: Twin was $1,436 now $1,049 with code TOMS27 at Helix
Officially the best mattress for side sleepers, the Helix Midnight Luxe is an indulgent bed that conforms to your body, relieving pressure at the shoulders, hips and knees for night long comfort. While the majority of side sleepers would liken this mattress to sleeping on a cloud, it also has specialist support that’ll appeal to back sleepers too. Quality foams, an ErgoAlign layer and individually wrapped coils zoned for lumbar support means this is a mattress that’ll last, keeping the body balanced and aligned. With the code TOMS27, a queen drops to $1,751 (was $2,398.66) in the Helix mattress sale, the lowest price we think we’ll see for the rest of the year. You’ll get a lifetime warranty, free shipping and 100 night sleep trial – enough to decide whether it’s for you or not.

5. Siena Signature Memory Foam 12” mattress: Twin was $289 now $239 at Amazon
Those who need firmer support while sticking to a budget should consider investing in the Siena Signature mattress. With a firm feel (our reviewers rated it at nine out of 10 on the firmness scale), back sleepers and stomach sleepers will remain elevated and aligned. Side sleepers will likely find it doesn’t give enough — we’d suggest considering the Zinus instead at number 3 instead. With a simple three-layer foam design, we were impressed at how this bed performed. Expect excellent motion isolation (great for couples) and support that extends right to the edge of the bed. With a queen discounted to $329 from $389—the best price we’ve seen— you’re getting an excellent deal. To top it off, get 180 nights to trial the mattress out and a 10-year warranty. It’s no surprise it tops this year’s best cheap mattress guide.
6. Tempur-Pedic TempurAdapt mattress: Twin was $1,699 now $1,189.30 at Tempur Pedic Outlet
Tempur-Pedic mattresses are known for the notorious Tempur-Material used which is a high-density, slow moving memory foam initially designed by NASA. But what does this mean for your comfort? Expect the TempurAdapt to contour around your body, preventing any pressure build up and keeping the body aligned. With a medium-firm feel, side sleepers might need some time to break it in, but back sleepers should find immediate relief. This Tempur-Pedic mattress sale is only available at the Outlet, which means sales are final (no returns, no sleep trial), but for $1,539.30 for a queen (was $2,199), we’re not complaining.
7. Nectar Premier mattress: twin now $549 at Nectar
The Nectar Premier is a luxurious mattress with a mid-range price tag. At 13” tall with four layers of quality memory foam, this is a bed that contours to your every move. While Nectar rate the mattress as a medium-firm (6.5 out of 10), our panel of mattress testers found it felt softer than this, making it most suitable for side sleepers. The current price of a queen is the same as we see year round at $949, but for Labor Day, the Nectar mattress sale means you can add a bedding bundle worth $599 for $179. You’ll get a 365-night trial, a forever warranty and free shipping and returns.
8. EGOHOME Black 12” Memory Foam mattress: twin was $299.99 now $269.99 at Amazon
This is a fantastic price for an already budget mattress that’s one of the best cheap mattresses for back sleepers you can find. Our testers in the EGOHOME Black 12” mattress review awarded it 4 stars out of 5; they were really impressed with the edge-to-edge support and cradling foam that left them free of aches and pains in the morning. It's a solid deal all-around, but we're especially eyeing the queen-size that's discounted to $295.99 (was $429.99).
9. Naturepedic Concerto Pillow Top mattress: twin was $1,699 now $1,359.20 at Naturpedic
The Naturepedic Concerto is a truly indulgent, plush mattress that side sleepers will love. This mattress features seven layers of high-quality materials, like organic wool, cotton and latex, as well as high-density microcoils. We often see 15% off this bed throughout the year, so this 20% off matches the Black Friday sale and brings a queen down to $2,239.20 (was $2,799). Read our full Naturepedic Concerto mattress review to see if it's the bed for you.
Top Labor Day mattress deals under $300 for a queen
1. Zinus 10” Green Tea Memory foam: Queen was $220 now $198 at Amazon
We’ve already sung the praises of the Zinus Green Tea mattress, but we want to shout about it a little more. At $198 for a queen (was $220), it’s a deal worth taking notice of. The memory foam creates a traditional ‘hug’ feeling of marshmallow softness, which is perfect for alleviating pressure at the hips, shoulders and knees. Unlike other budget options, this Zinus mattress includes a 10-year warranty, which is an excellent perk for such a budget option.
2. Brooklyn Bedding 14" Gel Memory Foam Hybrid Mattress: queen was $328 now $288 at Walmart
Another fantastic budget hybrid is the Brooklyn Bedding Gel Memory Foam mattress. With a 14” profile, there’s no doubt you’ll feel robust support from this design. While we haven’t tested this be mattress, we expect the high-density gel foams and eight-inch coils create a medium-firm bed that’s suitable for back, stomach and side sleepers. At $288 for a queen (was $328), you can’t go too far wrong. Plus you’ll get a 90 day returns period — although there aren’t details of a warranty.
3. Lucid Memory Foam mattress: queen was $349 now $279.99 at Lucid
This all-foam mattress is designed to cushion your body, delivering a classic ‘sink in’ feeling. The Lucid Memory Foam mattress incorporates specialist materials like bamboo charcoal foam which is designed to capture odors and wick moisture so your mattress stays fresher for longer. Ultimately, you can expect a soft bed — we think it’ll be best suited to side sleepers. For Labor Day, Lucid are offering a 20% discount sitewide. This drops the price of a queen to $279.99 (was $349), and you’ll get a 100-night sleep trial, a 10-year warranty and free shipping and returns.
4. Novilla 12" Gel Memory Foam mattress: queen was $442.45 now $210 at Home Depot
This two-sided mattress offers two different feels: medium and firm. Made from gel foam which improves airflow and breathability and incorporating an air-circulation foam, you can expect a cooler sleep than other cheap foam beds. We think this mattress will suit a range of sleepers, with stomach sleepers likely preferring the firm side and side sleepers, the medium feel. This Labor Day, you can get $232.45 off, bringing a queen down to just $210. And like the best cheap mattresses, you can also enjoy a 10-year limited warranty and a 100-night sleep trial, too.
Top Labor Day luxury mattress deals
1. Saatva HD mattress: twin was $1,999 now $1,599 at Saatva
The HD is Saatva’s ‘first luxury hybrid for bigger bodies’, featuring in our best mattress for heavy people guide, but we think it’ll suit many body types and sleep preferences. Beneath a hand-tufted Euro pillow top are three layers of foam to create the ultimate pressure-relieving surface. But beneath this plush feeling are responsive coils and double edge support rails, which provides excellent support that will extend right to the edges. This means couples can use the full surface of the bed, and we expect motion isolation to be impressive, too, thanks to the foam layers. This is a mattress that will last, so we think the investment is worth it. At $400 off, a queen is $2,999 (was $3,399) and you’ll get free white glove delivery, a 365-night trial and a forever warranty.
2. Avocado Green mattress: twin was $1,499 now $1,274 at Avocado
Voted as this year’s best organic mattress, the Avocado Green is a truly luxurious mattress. Hand crafted from quality natural materials like GOLS-certified latex, GOTS-certified wool and GOTS-certified cotton, it’s a bed that holds up ethically and sustainably. During the Avocado Green mattress review, we found the firm option was best suited to back sleepers. For a firm, a queen is now 15% off, bringing the price to $1,784 (was $2,099). This Avocado mattress sale is one we’ve seen before, but it’s still worth taking advantage of. However, if you want the medium-feel option, add $680, and for the plush, $1,428. You’ll also get a 25-year limited warranty and a 1-year sleep trial.
3. WinkBed mattress: twin was $1,149 now $849 at WinkBeds
When we reviewed the WinkBed mattress, we were pleasantly surprised by how supportive it was, thanks to the zoned coils and stabilizing gel foam. We tested the Luxury Firm option but there is also a softer, firmer and Plus option to suit as many different body types and sleeping positions as possible. The tencel cover and gel foam, paired with the hybrid structure, results in excellent airflow and a neutral temperature. While the $300 discount is offered year round, it’s a quality luxury mattress so any sale is appreciated. A queen is $1,499 (was $1,799) and you’ll get a 120-night sleep trial, lifetime warranty and free shipping and returns.
4. Stearns & Foster Estate mattress: twin was $1,899 now $1,699 plus $300 Visa gift card at Stearns & Foster
Stearns & Foster are known for creating some of the best luxury mattresses, even providing indulgent models to high-end hotels. The Estate is a hybrid bed that pairs Tempur-Indulge Memory Foam with IntelliCoil innersprings to create next-level support. Hand crafted, you can customize the bed to your liking. Choose from three firmness options and an optional pillow-top layer. The current $200 off plus $300 Visa gift card deal is as good as last year's Black Friday sale, bringing the price of a queen down to $1,799 (was $1,999). A 10-year warranty will cover your purchase and you'll get a 90-day sleep trial, as well as free white glove delivery. Read more in our Stearns & Foster Estate mattress review.
Naturepedic Concerto mattress: twin was $1,699 now $1,359.20 at Naturpedic
The Naturepedic Concerto is a truly indulgent, plush mattress that side sleepers will love. This mattress features seven layers of high-quality materials, like organic wool, cotton and latex, as well as high-density microcoils. We often see 15% off this bed throughout the year, so this 20% off matches the Black Friday sale and brings a queen down to $2,239.20 (was $2,799). Read our full Naturepedic Concerto mattress review to see if it's the bed for you.
Top Labor Day bedding and pillow deals
1. Coop Original Adjustable pillow: queen was $85 now $65 at Coop
Stuffed with a memory foam and microfiber blend, the Coop Original Adjustable pillow has a medium-firm feel and adjustable loft. By simply zipping open Lulltra cover, you can remove and add as much fill as you want to make the pillow suitable for your sleeping position. The pillowcase is also breathable and ultra soft which gives the Coop a luxury feel. In our Coop Original Adjustable Pillow review, we were particularly impressed by the responsive support of the pillow, adjusting to our movements. The 20% off sale is one we see during major events, so it’s worth taking advantage of. And with a queen just $65 (was $85), it’s worth the investment.
2. Brooklinen Classic Percale Lightweight Hardcore Bundle: twin was $506 now $250.47 at Brooklinen
This customizable bedding set is everything you need to create a hotel bed in the comfort of your own home. Including a fitted sheet, flat Sheet, three pillowcases, a duvet cover, and a lightweight grid cotton bed blanket, it's an impressive bundle. For each product, you can choose from 28 colorways, making it perfectly suit your bedroom. The bundle is 100% cotton, with a 270 thread count for real luxury. With 50% off, this is a fantastic deal and it drops the price of a queen down to $304.92 (was $616).
3. yescool Weighted Blanket: 10lbs was $39.99 now $26.99 at Amazon
As the season's change, a breathable weighted blanket can be the perfect addition to your bed. This one from yescool features small stitched squares filled with glass beads for an even distribution of weight, and it's available in over 20 different size, weight and color options. A 10lbs size is 33% off, but the different weight and sizes have varying discounts. Ultimately, $26.99 for a quality weighted blanket is a steal.
4. Tempur-Pedic Tempur Cloud Pillow: From $79 for two at Tempur-Pedic
Tempur-Pedic's buy-one-get-one-free deal has returned! While you can mix and match with any Tempur-Pedic pillow, the Tempur Cloud makes this year's best pillow guide thanks to the immense pressure relief from the Tempur-Material. When we reviewed the Tempur-Pedic Tempur Cloud Pillow, we found the loft perfect for side and stomach sleepers. This BOGO deal is one we see often, but it always ends abruptly. So we'd suggest bagging a bargain ASAP.
Top Labor Day sleep tech deals
1. Oura Ring 3: was $299 now $199 at Oura
The Oura Ring can supercharge your sleep by monitoring your health signals from your finger. With a sleek design and accurate tracking, you can access your sleep reports from your smart phone every morning. From your sleep score to your sleep cycles, and all the fitness tracking you could wish for, the Oura Ring 3 is a great tool to prioritize your wellbeing. Read our full Oura Ring 3 review to find out more. $100 off for Labor Day is a great deal and one worth snapping up.
2. Jall Sunrise Alarm Clock: Was $49.99 now $29.99 at Amazon
When we reviewed the Jall Sunrise Alarm Clock, what you get for the price impressed us so much we decided to add it to this year's best sunrise alarm clock guide. With bluetooth, FM radio and plenty of color options, the Jall is a great addition to your morning and nighttime routine. And now, with the season shifting, it's a great time to invest. 40% off is a fantastic deal for Labor Day, dropping the price to just $29.99.
Helight Red Light Therapy Sleep Device: was $139 now $111.20 at Amazon
Our sleep tech expert and writer, Eve Davies, swears by using her red light device as part of a relaxing nighttime routine. It's said to stimulate melatonin production, making it easier to fall asleep quickly. This device from Helight has a pre-programmed 28-minute cycle to help you wind down at night. With 20% off, the price drops to $111.20, which seems a small price to pay for something designed to supercharge your sleep.
Live: latest updates
Signing off!
It's time for me to enjoy what's left of the Labor Day weekend. Thanks so much for joining me and the Tom's Guide Sleep Team these last few days — we hope you found the sleep deals of your dreams because of us!
Hold up — here's a rare deal on a custom pillow from Pluto
Pluto. Maybe you know about it from Shark Tank — or perhaps you read my Pluto Pillow review. (Thanks!)
If you don't know about Pluto, it's a brand that specializes in building pillows tailored to your body and sleep style. You just answer a few questions about your current sleep situation, and Pluto uses an algorithm (plus human intervention) to create the best pillow for you, and nobody else.
Pluto rarely hosts sales, but for Labor Day, it's cutting 10% off sitewide via code LABOR10. That drops the Original Pluto Pillow to $121.50 (reg. $135).
This deal won't last much longer, so if you're keen to build a Pluto Pillow, now's the time to do it. It comes with a 125-night trial, along with one free (modified) replacement in case Pluto doesn't get it right the first time.
Here's a hot deal on Tempur-Pedic's most advanced cooling mattress — now $500 off plus a free $300 Visa gift card
Tempur Material excels at relieving pressure — but, as I mentioned below, it can really hold the heat, leading to some unpleasant, sweaty evenings.
Fortunately, the Tempur-Pedic Labor Day sale features a mega offer on its premium cooling mattress. Not only can you save $500 on the LuxeBreeze Mattress at Tempur-Pedic, but you'll also get a free $300 Visa gift card, which you can spend wherever Visa is accepted. (Let's be real: that's basically everywhere.)
Provided you use the gift card, that's effectively an $800 discount on this next-level cooling mattress. Yeah, you'll still be dropping quite a bit of cash here — a queen-size LuxeBreeze is $5,199 (was $5,699) — but given that we rarely see Tempur-Pedic cut more than $300 off its mattresses during its sales, it's a great deal.
In addition to advanced cooling, you'll also be able to choose whether you want a soft or firm feel. If you prefer a medium level of comfort, downgrade to the (still-luxe) Tempur-Pedic ProBreeze Mattress, which is also on sale for $500 off plus $300 in free accessories.
Pro tip: With mattresses, you don't always have to spend a lot to get a lot
In all my years of testing mattresses, one thing I've learned is that you don't have to pay top dollar for a new bed. Mid-range models — and even budget ones — can sometimes surprise you with how comfortable and well-made they are.
For example, when I informed my testing panel about the regular cost of the Siena Premier Hybrid Mattress, they were shocked to find out it cost a lot less than they had envisioned. That's a testament to its build quality, as it feels anything but "cheap."
On the flip side, my time with the Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Adapt Mattress was hindered by nights of overheating, as the dense Tempur Material didn't allow for much airflow. Tempur-Pedic is considered a premium brand, and for good reason, but the unique feel of its beds won't suit everyone.
My point: Don't be swayed by price or brand prestige alone when shopping for a new mattress. If you have the means to invest in a more expensive bed, then go for it — but no matter your budget, make sure you're shopping for models that are a good fit for your needs and preferences — or else you'll pay for it in other ways.

Charles Leclerc rests easy on his Eight Sleep Pod — here’s how you can, too
Ferrari F1 driver Charles Leclerc had a rough day at Zandvoort yesterday after crashing out of the Dutch Grand Prix. Fortunately, he could sleep it off on his Eight Sleep Pod 5.
Leclerc is an investor in Eight Sleep, the tech company behind the innovative system that tracks your vital sleep metrics and regulates bed temperature.
If you want to sleep like an F1 driver, Eight Sleep’s Labor Day sale takes up to $200 off its Pod 5 and Pod 5 Pro systems. While that may not seem like a huge discount, it’s more than the brand’s previous offer, which ranged from $50 to $200 off. Honestly, this is as good as it gets.
Eight Sleep is designed for those who are willing to invest heavily in their sleep and wellness. The base Pod 5 features dual-sided temperature controls, clinical-grade sensors for in-depth health tracking, and a silent alarm.
The Pod 5 Pro adds a bed base that offers zero-gravity pressure relief, snore mitigation, and built-in surround sound so you can immerse yourself in calming music before bedtime.
Keep in mind that a subscription is required to unlock all of Eight Sleep’s features, with plans starting at $199 per year.
Curious to know more? In our Eight Sleep Pod 4 mattress cover review, our lead tester found the smart system has the potential to "radically change your sleep," putting temperature control in your hands.
Eight Sleep Pod 5 Core cover and hub: full was $2,849 now $2,749 at Eight Sleep
Eight Sleep sits at the cutting edge of mattress technology, and the Pod 5 Core is its latest innovation in smart cooling. Featuring a smart cover and hub, the Pod 5 has integrated climate control to cool or warm the bed depending on your needs. Clinical-grade sensors track your heart rate and other vitals without the need for a separate wearable. It's pricey and the deals are relatively small, but its Labor Day discount is more than we normally see from the brand. A queen-size is reduced from $3,049 to $2,949. If you have HSA or FSA funds to spend, you can apply them toward your purchase.
A curious omission from the Casper Labor Day sales
The Casper Labor Day sale cuts up to 35% off sitewide. It features savings on pillows, bedding, and most mattresses.
Yes, there's one Casper mattress you won't find discounted at the moment...
Back in May, we reported on the Casper Cloud One, a new addition to the lineup that promises "cloud-like plushness" via foam pillars that vaguely resemble pocket springs.
But here we are on the first of September, and the Casper Cloud One is not only excluded from discounts — it's not even in stock at the moment.
During an early July 4th sale, we spotted 20% off all sizes of the Casper Cloud One Mattress, which curiously only had full and queen sizes in stock at the time.
You can preorder a Casper Cloud One Memory Foam Mattress from $999 for a twin, with a projected ship date of September 10, but if I were you, I'd advise waiting a couple of weeks, as the price is likely to drop as part of a "new" release promotion.
Its predecessor, the Casper One Memory Foam Mattress, is on sale from $599 for a twin (reg. from $749), but this is a firmer bed that'll be a better match for back and front sleepers. We went hands-on with it in our Casper One Mattress review.
If you're a side sleeper, the Cloud One will be more your speed — but if you need something sooner rather than later, check out our guide to the best mattresses for side sleepers, many of which are on sale right now.
Head to Amazon to find our favorite budget all-foam mattress at the lowest price we've seen
When buying a new mattress, we normally recommend buying straight from the manufacturer for the highest level of aftercare. But if finding the best price is your top priority, the following deal is for you...
Amazon has a queen-size Siena Signature 12" Memory Foam Mattress on sale for $329. That's $70 less than you'd pay when purchasing from Siena Sleep directly, and the lowest price we've seen.
In our Siena 10" Memory Foam Mattress review, we praised it for delivering "excellent support on a budget." Note that the deal we're featuring here is for the 12" version, which adds an extra layer of comfort foam for enhanced pressure relief — something the 10" Siena mattress doesn't offer much of.
Per the Amazon product page, you'll still get a 180-night trial and a 10-year warranty, but I advise you reach out to Amazon's customer service (or even contact Siena) to confirm this so you're not blindsided in case you need to send it back.

3 deals to help you combat nighttime anxiety and stop the Sunday scaries
Is your heart racing? Is your mind busy? Does it feel impossible to switch off and fall asleep? You might be experiencing nighttime anxiety. I know, because it used to keep me awake every week (especially on a Sunday).
But since working on my nighttime routine and investing in a few key sleep accessories, I can calm my mind and body effectively, falling asleep quickly most nights.
thisworks Deep Sleep Pillow Spray: was $33 now $25.41 at Amazon
Creating the right environment is essential for calming the mind and body, and a way to instantly transform your bedroom into a relaxing spa is to spray the right scent. This pillow spray uses a blend of lavender, chamomile and vetivert essential oils and 23% off for a 2.5 fl oz bottle.
Blissy Silk Sleep Mask: was $27.81 now $22.30 at Amazon
Sometimes when we're feeling anxious, we just need to block out the rest of the world. Something that's helped me do that literally, not just metaphorically, is a silk blackout eye mask. This one from Blissy uses 100% mulberry silk and comes with a handy travel bag for catching ZZZs on the go. There are 14 different color options, but only certain ones are discounted for Labor Day.
Ekouaer Bamboo Pajama Set: was $25.99 now $19.74 at Amazon
And the finishing touch? A cozy, comfortable and soft pair of pajamas that you look forward to wearing night after night. I opt for bamboo to help me stay cool on warm nights and cozy on cold nights. This set from Ekouaer is now just $19.74 for all colors (9 different options), dropping from $25.99.
Of all the luxury mattresses I've tested — this one delivers that classic, cozy 'hug' side sleepers love
I've tested a fair few luxury mattresses, but the one that has captured the attention of guests visiting is the Nectar Luxe Memory Foam mattress which is $1,249 for a queen at Nectar.
After looking through the current Labor Day mattress sales, I settled with the Nectar Luxe, despite seeing this sale live throughout the year.
Why? Because to me, it embodies everything you want from a luxury bed. Plus, you can get a bedding bundle for just $179 extra to completely transform your sleep setup.
I wouldn't necessarily suggest the Luxe for stomach sleepers, but I think side sleepers, like me, will love it (and some lightweight back sleepers, too.) With a super tall design made of slow-moving memory foam, it's one of the coziest beds I've slept on.
Nectar Luxe Memory Foam mattress: twin from $999 at Nectar
A simple three-layer design is surprisingly effective in the Nectar Luxe mattress. The cooling cover wicks away heat thanks to the cooling fibers, and the antimicrobial treatments keeps the bed feeling fresh for longer. Where this mattress shines is for couples. During the Nectar Luxe mattress review, I was impressed by the motion isolation and edge support. This meant I wasn't kept awake by my husband and we could both use the full surface of the bed. A queen is always sold at $1,249 in the Nectar mattress sales and now you can add a bedding bundle worth $599 for $179. This includes a mattress protector, sheet set and a cooling pillow. You'll also get a forever warranty, a 365-night sleep trial and free shipping.
I think it's time for some luxury
We've looked at some great budget options... but why don't we treat ourselves?
After all, the Labor Day sales are a fantastic opportunity to invest in one of the best luxury mattresses for less.
I'll be back with my favorite indulgent bed deal soon... as well as some bedding to match.
I'm sharing my biggest sleep tip: the one product that promises a restful night (and it's only $15)
As someone who lives in a city center and shares their bed with a snorer, waking up at night is an ongoing problem.
The longer I lie awake the more anxious I get and the harder it feels to fall back asleep. And yes, I've tried foam earplugs but they fall out and hurt my ears. Sometimes, so much so that I wake up from the pain (making them the opposite of helpful).
I tried Loop earplugs and found that they worked a lot better. But I still wasn't satisfied. It didn't feel like they blocked a lot of noise and they often fell out during the night (admittedly, I toss and turn a lot).
Then I tried a competitor: Alpine Silence Earplugs. I first put them to the test at Glastonbury Festival and I slept soundly for six nights, despite people partying all around me.
Their arrow design means they fit snugly in your ear and don't move throughout the night. This tight fit also meant they blocked a significant amount of noise. For context, I couldn't hear my husband who was trying to get my attention and he was lying next to me.
Now, anytime I know I need a good night's sleep, they're my go-to. And right now they're 40% off in Amazon's Labor Day sale.
Alpine Silence Earplugs: was from $24.95 now $14.95 at Amazon
This isn't just a pair of reusable earplugs. For $14.95 (was $24.95), you get a portable carry case and four different tip sizes to suit every type of sleeper. Currently, only the black version is discounted, but there are five different colors to choose from at full price.
I found the ultimate dorm room mattress — and it just dropped to $169.99 for Labor Day
Under $170 for a brand new dorm room mattress? Yes please.
The Amazon Labor Day sale has just dropped the price of its twin and twin XL Linenspa 10” Hybrid mattress to $169.99 — and that’s better than shopping directly from Linenspa itself (where it’s currently $199.99).
There’s nothing worse than sleeping on a sagging, dirty and uncomfortable dorm room mattress. And why would you when you can swap it out for under $200?
We reviewed the 8” Linenspa Hybrid mattress, so we can only assume the 10” will offer even more support and pressure relief.
Linenspa 10” Memory Foam Hybrid mattress: twin was $199 now $169.99 at Amazon
15% off doesn’t sound like a lot, but when you’re a student, every little helps. And, when we’re talking mattresses, anything under $200 is fantastic value. The Linenspa Memory Foam Hybrid mattress has a simple design made up of tempered steel coils and a memory foam layer, creating a medium feel. While it is a budget bed, it’s designed to last with a 10-year warranty. A twin and twin XL are now $169.99, making it the perfect addition to any dorm room.
Calling all students...
A dreary dorm room can be made so much more comfortable with the right mattress. Plus, when sleep is so closely linked to better memory and good grades, making your bed perfect for you should be top of your list.
But, let's be realistic here. We need to keep to a strict budget.
If you hold tight, I'm going to scour Amazon, Walmart, Mattress Firm, Home Depot and our top mattress brands to find the best dorm room sleep deal that's dropped today.
I'll be back soon.
Ending today! Tempur-Pedic’s infamous BOGO pillow deal is live
Tempur-Pedic is notorious for quick-as-a-flash sales. Often we see this BOGO deal, but by the time we’ve alerted our readers to the excellent value, it’s disappeared.
So, it’s time to act quickly.
Right now, you can buy one Tempur-Pedic pillow and get one free (plus you can mix and match!)
That means you can get two Tempur-Cloud pillows for just $79. Made with Tempur-Material, you’ll sink into this headrest and experience next-level pressure relief.
We hate to state the obvious, but yes, it feels like sleeping on a cloud.

MASSIVE DEAL ALERT! Get $700 off Amerisleep's mattress for side sleepers today
We’re diving straight in because I just found a deal too juicy not to share:
Get $700 off the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid mattress with code LD2025 at Amerisleep now!
When we reviewed the Amerisleep AS3 Hybrid mattress, our lead tester, Jo Plumridge, fell in love with how it felt for side sleeping.
The Bio-Pur foam molds to your body, cushioning areas where pressure is likely to build up (like the hips, shoulders and knees). But our tester noted that the support beneath the foam top layers is pretty impressive, too, keeping the body aligned throughout the night.
She described it as a ‘hero’ among mattresses for side sleepers.
Yes, this is still a premium mattress but with $700 off for the Labor Day sales, it’s worth grabbing at this lower price. A queen is currently reduced to $1,249 (MSRP $1,949) and you’ll get a 100-night trial, 20-year warranty and free shipping.
Good morning and happy Labor Day!
Lauren Jeffries, Sleep Features Editor
Morning, morning, morning! I’m Lauren, the Tom’s Guide Sleep Features Editor, and I’m kicking off our 2025 Labor Day mattress sale live hub today — yes, I’m excited.
A bit about me: I joined the team last August and since then I’ve been busy sleeping on and testing new mattresses from huge brands like the Nectar Luxe, the Nectar Ultra, the DreamCloud Classic and more. As a side sleeper and someone who *hates* a memory foam hug, the Birch Luxe Natural mattress has been my favorite so far.
But I’m not just a mattress gal. My job is to help as many people as possible sleep better night after night. This means I’ve travelled to London for gold-standard sleep studies, interviewed top neuroscientists to find out the latest about sleeping brains and reported on breaking news in the sleep health industry.
So, today I’ll be your guide to today's 2025 Labor Day mattress sales. We’ve got a team of expert deal hunters working tirelessly to find the latest and best mattress and sleep discounts landing (and of course I’ll be hunting myself), but I’ll also be sharing top sleep tips and the products that have transformed my sleep hygiene.
Hold tight, I'll be back soon with big deals.
