Good sleep is the cornerstone of a productive, healthy life, and mattresses play a role in determining sleep quality. However, selecting the right mattress requires careful consideration. For exploring all options, from innerspring mattresses to memory foam and latex variants, one should consider comfort and price, among other features. Here, the 2023 Black Friday sale is the perfect time to find affordable yet comfortable mattresses. So, here are 10 deals worth tracking this shopping season:

Memory foam mattresses
Memory foam mattresses are known for their exceptional comfort and support. They can be made from viscoelastic foam that conforms to the shape of the body, providing personalized support and pressure relief. The material also enables motion isolation, making it an excellent choice for sharing a bed. Moreover, the mattresses here are hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites. On the other hand, gel memory foam mattresses use gel beads or layers within the memory foam to enhance cooling properties. These variants are designed to dissipate heat better than traditional memory foam, making them a better choice for hot sleepers. They offer similar contouring and pressure relief benefits as standard memory foam mattresses. Here are a few deals to consider:

1. Last shopping season, the Nectar Memory Foam mattress carried a 33% discount, selling for just $359 on the brand website.

2. Prices for gel memory foam mattresses can vary, but last Black Friday, shoppers could get the Nectar Premier twin mattress at a discounted price of $669, with the pre-price being $999.

Innerspring mattresses
Innerspring mattresses consist of a steel coil support system with layers of padding or upholstery on top. They offer excellent support and durability and tend to be more budget-friendly than other types. The bouncy feel here offers a more traditional mattress experience. However, they may not offer motion isolation.

3. Last year, Wayfair offered up to 60% off on its mattresses, including innerspring variants. One can follow up on such deals this shopping season.

Latex mattresses
Although pricey, latex mattresses are made from natural or synthetic latex rubber and are known for their durability and eco-friendliness, making them worth the investment. Latex makes for a comfortable sleeping surface that contours to the body without the sinking feeling associated with memory foam. These mattresses are naturally hypoallergenic and resistant to dust mites.

4. The Saatva Zenhaven Latex Mattress, which was earlier selling for $1,595, carried a $400 discount on the brand website last Black Friday. The flippable, non-toxic mattress is a product worth considering this shopping season as well.

Hybrid mattresses
Hybrid mattresses come with a support core of innerspring coils with layers of memory foam or latex on top. This design aims to offer the best of both worlds: the support of innerspring and the comfort of foam. Hybrids are known for their excellent support, cooling properties, and motion isolation. Prices for hybrid mattresses can vary widely, depending on the materials used and the brand. Here are deals to consider:

5. One can look up deals on the Saatva Classic Mattress, which carried a discount of $200 last shopping season.

6. The DreamCloud Luxury Hybrid was also available at a $200 discount last Black Friday.

Adjustable beds
Adjustable beds have gained popularity for their versatility in providing customized sleeping positions. The beds have a motorized base for elevating or lowering different parts of the bed, such as the head or feet. They are ideal for people with specific sleep needs or medical conditions like sleep apnea or acid reflux. The base can accommodate various mattress types, including memory foam and innerspring.

7. Purple offered shoppers savings of up to $800, including up to $300 off premium mattresses and $500 off the Ascent adjustable base last Black Friday.

Organic and natural mattresses
Organic and natural mattresses are made from materials free from synthetic chemicals or pesticides. Although expensive, they are an excellent choice for eco-conscious consumers and those with sensitivity to certain chemicals. Common materials here are organic cotton, natural latex, and wool.

8. The Birch Natural twin bed mattress, originally priced at $1,399, sold for $999 last Black Friday. This deal is worth considering, as the mattress is made from breathable wool and Talalay latex and comes with an organic cotton cover.

Pillow-top mattresses
These mattresses come with an additional layer of padding sewn at the top. This padding provides a luxurious and plush feel akin to sleeping on a cloud. Pillow-top variants are excellent for those who prefer a softer sleep surface. Prices can vary, with luxury pillow-top mattresses being on the higher end.

9. For those looking for a premium pillow top mattress, the Helix Midnight Luxe mattress comes with zoned lumbar support and memory foam. It carried a $300 discount last year.

Air mattresses
Inflatable mattresses utilize air chambers as the primary support system that can be adjusted to control firmness. Airbeds are easy to move, store, and customize.

10. Last Black Friday, Coleman Quick Bed Plus Single High Air Mattress was available at Walmart for $46.48, being regularly priced at $79.56.

In addition to getting a conventional mattress, one can find mattresses or toppers typically made from materials like cotton, foam, or both for futons and sofa beds.

In addition to discounts on top products, on Black Friday, brands may throw in freebies like pillows, mattress protectors, and sheets, while some may also offer sitewide discounts.
