Our five-time best mattress winner is $400 off this Labor Day — why I'd buy now instead of Black Friday

What can I say about the Saatva Classic? I've said it already. It's the luxury mattress that receives a glowing five-star review each time we re-test it — and you can now save $400 on the Classic mattress at Saatva ahead of Labor Day.

This deal takes a queen down to $1,739 (was $2,139), which isn't bad at all for a hand-crafted premium bed that always sits atop our best mattress of 2025 guide.

In fact, I would say it's one of the best Labor Day mattress sales I've seen so far this year, and I highly doubt Saatva will top it for Black Friday. Plus, we've already seen the price of the Classic go up this summer, and mattress tariffs may spell another rise.

I've been tracking Saatva mattress sales for a long time, and the Saatva Labor Day sales tend to offer as-good-as-Black-Friday discounts. So, there's no reason to wait to add the Saatva Classic to your cart... Here's why I recommend acting now.

Saatva Classic: twin was $1,399 now $999 at Saatva
The Saatva Classic is No 1 in a lot of our guides: best luxury mattress, best hybrid mattress and best medium-firm mattress. Why is it so beloved by our testers? Well, just take a look at 2025's Saatva Classic Review, where we pretty much praise everything about it. It provides instant comfort and support, doesn't sleep warm, has strong edge support and motion isolation and gives you the option to choose from one of three firmness levels that suit your sleep position. Saatva's Labor Day discounts have now dropped, and with them comes our semi-exclusive deal that knocks $400 off all sizes of the Saatva Classic. This means the Classic is as low as $999 (last month, the lowest prices was $1,099) and a queen is just $1,739. As always, you can get generous extras such as free white glove delivery, lifetime warranty and a year-long trial.

Why you should buy the Saatva Classic this Labor Day

There are two main reasons to buy the Saatva Classic this Labor Day.

First of all, it's an outstanding mattress that delivers heaps of lumbar support, pillow-top cushioning, and customization for all sleep positions.

The other reason is that I guarantee you won't find it any cheaper this year, not even for Black Friday.

Saatva usually reserves its $400 off $1,000+ mattress orders for major holidays like Labor Day and Presidents' Day, and big sales events such as Black Friday and Cyber Monday.

We have yet to see a better deal on the Classic, so there's no point waiting to see what November has to bring.

Bear Elite Hybrid: was from $1,998 now $1,299 at Bear Mattress
Like the Saatva Classic, the Bear Elite Hybrid is a luxury mattress comes in three firmness options ranging from soft to firm. However, the main difference between the two is that the Elite Hybrid is a specialist cooling bed, and we voted it the best cooling mattress on the market. It uses the cooling power of Phase Change Material and coper-infused memory foam to keep you cool at night, but some cooling features cost extra and the edge support could be better in places. 35% discounts are common at Bear, so you'll often find a queen for the current price of $1,578 (was $2,427). Extras include a lifetime warranty, a 120-night sleep trial, and free shipping and free returns.
