Shopping for a memory foam mattress? 5 I'd buy in Black Friday sales while they're still live
There's still big savings to be had mattress brands like Nectar, Siena and Saatva this Cyber Weekend
If you're looking for a mattress that makes you feel like you're being gently hugged while sleeping, then I'd recommend a memory foam mattress. Even though Black Friday is officially over there are plenty of great deals still live today. My favorite will help you buy a queen Nectar Mattress for $551.65 at Amazon— that's the cheapest price I've seen on the past season model at Amazon this year.
You can find several memory foam models in our best mattress of 2024 guide with options to suit every sleeper and budget. Here I've rounded up my pick of the Black Friday mattress deals on memory foam boxed mattresses that are still live today.
The Nectar Memory Foam Mattress at Amazon has just been rebadged as a Cyber Monday mattress sale so I would expect it to last for at least this weekend, and the same for the Saatva and Tempur-Pedic savings so you have a little time to decide.
1. Nectar Memory Foam Mattress: from $499 $296.55 at Amazon
The Nectar Mattress occupies the top place in our best memory foam mattress guide. Okay, that's the new model, which you'll find from $349 for a twin at Nectar in the Nectar Black Friday sale. But this older design used to be our favorite all-foam bed and it still delivers the gentle contouring and sturdy support we praised in our Nectar Memory Foam Mattress review. Currently it's at a super low price on Amazon, with a queen just $551.85 (was $899). And you get a forever warranty and a 365-night trial.
2. Saatva Contour5 Mattress: from $1,895 $1,495 at Saatva
With a dense 5lb foam core, the Contour5 is one luxurious mattress. In our Saatva Contour5 Mattress review we found this premium model offers a sumptuous feel that lives up to the high price tag; if you're going to splurge on a foam bed, make it this one. There's currently $400 off all sizes in the Saatva Black Friday sale, reducing a queen to $2,595 (was $2,995). Not quite the lowest price we've seen for the Contour5, but if you need a new bed now, it's still a good deal. The benefits are also premium, with free white glove delivery, a lifetime warranty, and a 365-night trial.
3. Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud mattress: from $1,699 $1,189.30 at Tempur-Pedic
If you want the classic sink-in foam feel, you can't get better than Tempur-Pedic — and the Tempur-Cloud is the most affordable option in the range. A deep pressure-relieving hug is the stand-out feature, as we noted in our Tempur-Pedic Tempur-Cloud mattress review, but it can sleep a little hot. The 30% off Tempur-Pedic Black Friday mattress sale appears semi-regularly on the Tempur-Cloud, but it's better than ever right now as you'll also get two free pillows. A queen is reduced from $1,999 to $1,399. You'll get a 10-year warranty, 90-night trial, and free shipping.
4. Bear Original mattress: from $699 $419.40 at Bear
In our Bear Original mattress review we declared this all-foam bed to be a true all-rounder, great at pleasing couples with contrasting sleep styles. We rarely see anything other than a 35% off saving at Bear, so 40% off for Black Friday feels special. A queen is now $598.80 with code BFCM4TY (was $998) and comes with free pillows as well as a 120-night trial and lifetime warranty.
5. Siena Memory Foam Mattress: from $529 $189 at Siena
One of the best firm mattresses (especially for those on a budget) the Siena hasn't got the super-squishy sink of other all-foam beds. Instead, our Siena Memory Foam Mattress review team agreed the sturdy support is best for back and stomach sleepers. Siena's evergreen sale has improved for Black Friday with a queen now just $379 — it's $769 at full price and usually sells for $399. You'll also get a 180-night trial and a 10-year warranty.
