Why pay more? 3 hotel-quality queen mattresses for under $700 that our team has tested and loved

1. DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress: queen now $649 plus $599 free bedding at DreamCloud
The DreamCloud Classic Hybrid mattress is a firm favorite among our panel of bed testers. It's a close budget rival to our #1 mattress of the year, the Saatva Classic mattress, and it performed well across the board in our mattress tests, earning high scores for temperature regulation, motion isolation, and comfort and support. At $649 for a queen size in the current DreamCloud mattress sale, value for money is where this bed really stands out, undercutting most luxury hybrids by around $1,000 for a queen. Our lead tester reckons "the lower mid-range price tag masks a mattress that feels more expensive." Hence why it earns a spot in both our best hybrid mattress guide and takes the top spot in our best mattresses in a box guide. Plus you get $599 worth of free bedding now including a mattress protector, sheet set and cooling pillows. Honestly, you simply can't find better value in the mattress market.

2. Diamond Dreamstage Value Quilted Hybrid Mattress: queen was $1,245 now $695 at Diamond
My colleague and Senior Sleep Writer here at Tom's Guide, Ruth Jones, has been sleeping on the Diamond Dreamstage Value mattress this summer. She has been very impressed by the support and comfort it offers at such a great price, though a heatwave exposed its one flaw — below par temperature regulation, so I advise particularly hot sleepers shop the DreamCloud above. Otherwise, you're in save hands and getting great value for money with the Diamond Dreamstage. Ruth says it "highly supportive" and, in the early stages of testing, thinks the firm Dreamstage Value could be a contender for our best mattress for stomach sleepers guide. Speaking of firmness, the mattress is available in three different firmness levels, a customization option usually only available on premium beds (bravo, Diamond). All in all, I'm confident saying you're getting exceptional value with this mattress, with a queen at $695 after $600 in today's sale. Plus it comes with two free pillows.

3. Siena Premier Hybrid Mattress: queen was $1,016 now $424 at Siena
The Siena Premier Hybrid mattress may be the most expensive bed in Siena's catalog, but it's still a bonafide budget buy. In today's Siena's mattress sale, you can grab a queen size $424 (no, that's not a typo). During our Siena Premier Hybrid Mattress review, right away our testers noted how the bed looks a lot more expensive than the price tag attached, and after a month of testing it's still rated highly among our panel. Despite its 8 out of 10 firmness rating, our testers found it comfortable in nearly all positions. The springy surface provides ample contouring and makes it easy to switch positions through the night. Our lead tester and mattress guru Alison Barretta names the Siena Premier Hybrid " a serious contender to DreamCloud's budget throne", and at $225 less for a queen now, it's safe to say the Siena is worth every cent.
