Watch Our Amerisleep AS3 Video Review

Amerisleep—$600 off any mattress

It’s a common problem for couples to struggle with choosing a mattress if they have different sleep preferences. For such partners, we would suggest Amerisleep’s most popular memory foam model, the AS3.

The AS3 mattress has a balanced medium feel that provides a mix of pressure relief and support suitable for most sleep styles. If you’re a back, side, or combination sleeper, you should feel comfortable lying on the AS3.

Each mattress model contains Amerisleep’s proprietary Bio-Pur®, plant-based memory foam. Bio-Pur® cushions the curves of your body for optimal comfort. You’ll never feel stuck inside the mattress. Most of their memory foam mattresses offer five zones of targeted support, thanks to the Affinity layer with HIVE® technology.

The Amerisleep AS3 comes with a 100-night trial and a 20-year warranty, same as any other Amerisleep mattress.

Zoma—30% off any mattress

The Zoma Hybrid combines individually wrapped coils with gel memory foam. You’ll feel evenly supported with enhanced pressure relief in your shoulders and legs. Gel memory foam absorbs heat, so you’re not waking up in discomfort.

Underneath the gel memory foam layer is a transition layer of Reactiv™ foam. Zoma designed Reactiv™ to mimic the bounce of latex without the cost to produce it. Reactiv™ limits sinkage, keeping you feeling comfortable on top of the mattress.

The base of the original Zoma Hybrid is a series of bouncy pocketed coils, a material designed to promote sturdy support, motion isolation, and mattress longevity.

The Zoma Hybrid is backed by a 100-night sleep trial and a 10-year warranty.

Vaya—$300 off any mattress

Vaya had customers on a tight budget in mind when they created their original Vaya Mattress. High-quality foams cushion your body while providing long-lasting support. A breathable mattress cover also prevents heat from building up in the night.

The quality is reflected in its 10-year warranty. Vaya also gives customers 100 nights to try out the mattress to see if it’s for them.

Watch Our FORM Core Hybrid Video Review

FORM — $400 off any mattress

Grid mattresses have a reputation for running warm and wobbling underfoot, but the FORM Core Hybrid addresses both complaints directly. Its GelGrid™ comfort layer uses thousands of open-air cells to move heat away from the body continuously, rather than absorbing it the way traditional memory foam does.

What sets FORM apart from competing grid beds is Integra-Mesh™, a proprietary reinforcement woven into the GelGrid™ layer. It eliminates the surface instability common to grid designs without sacrificing the responsive, pressure-relieving feel that makes grid mattresses appealing in the first place.

Below, ZoneCoil™ individually wrapped coils move independently so you feel your partner’s movement less.

The FORM Core Hybrid comes with a 365-night sleep trial — among the longest in the industry — and a lifetime warranty.

Watch Our Helix Midnight Luxe Video Review

Helix—30% off sitewide

The Helix Midnight Luxe is purpose-built for side sleepers, with dedicated foam layers targeting the shoulders and hips where pressure tends to build overnight. Its zoned lumbar support system uses up to 1,000 individually wrapped coils with reinforced support under the hips, helping maintain spinal alignment without sacrificing the medium feel that makes the bed so versatile.

The standout material here is SupremeSupport 4.0 Memory Foam, which Helix manufactures at their Arizona facility. At 4 pounds of density — four times what many competing mattresses use — it cradles pressure points without breaking down over time. The result is a mattress that feels the same years in as it does on day one.

For hot sleepers, the Midnight Luxe offers a tiered cooling upgrade path: the standard TENCEL™ cover handles baseline breathability, while the optional GlacioTex™ Cooling Cover adds a cool-to-the-touch surface, and the CoolForce Layer beneath it has been shown to keep sleepers up to four degrees cooler for over 12 hours.

The Helix Midnight Luxe comes with a 120-night sleep trial and a limited lifetime warranty.

Watch Our Saatva Classic Video Review

$300 off mattresses

The Saatva Classic is the brand’s updated version of the innerspring mattress that many of us grew up sleeping on. It goes beyond the simple sandwich-like design of the traditional innerspring mattress that’s open coils between two thin layers of cushion.

While the base is open coils like what you would find in a traditional bed, it’s supplemented by pocketed coils that keep movements from spreading across the surface as they would on a standard spring mattress.

On top of these two coil layers is a layer of memory foam with targeted back support, covered by a 3-inch thick pillowtop. The sleeping surface is organic cotton, chosen for its natural breathability.

Saatva offers a year-long trial, plenty of time to test the mattress. The warranty is similarly long, providing lifetime protection.

Watch Our Leesa Original Video Review

Leesa — 25% off sitewide

The Leesa Original is the mattress that put the brand on the map, and it remains one of the most well-rounded all-foam options available. Its three-layer construction keeps things simple: a breathable responsive foam on top, a memory foam layer beneath it for pressure relief, and a dense support core at the base.

The result is a medium feel that 76% of Leesa customers describe as right in the middle — not too soft, not too firm.

Where the Original stands out among foam beds is airflow. The top layer uses Leesa’s exclusive responsive foam, designed to stay cooler than traditional memory foam by allowing air to move through rather than trapping it. Sleepers who run warm but prefer the cradling feel of foam over a hybrid tend to find it a strong fit.

The Original ships from Leesa’s Arizona factory and is backed by a 120-night trial and a limited lifetime warranty.

Watch Our Nolah Evolution Video Review

30% off mattresses

The Nolah Evolution is one of the thicker mattresses on the market, packed with a wealth of cooling features for unbeatable comfort. The top has roughly a handful of materials dedicated to consistent coolness.

The main comfort layer is zoned AirFoam, established to create pressure-relieving cushion that disperses heat quickly. Bolstering this layer are two underlying foam layers for extra resilience and buoyancy.

The support core consists of pocketed coils, zoned into three sections for extra responsiveness. These coils are individually wrapped and rest on a foundation of recycled fibers.

The Nolah Evolution comes with a 120-night sleep trial and a lifetime warranty.

Type of Mattress Sales

Around the Fourth of July, you can find mattress sales and discounts both online and in-store.

Which offers the best deal? It all depends on what you want. For instance, if you want a memory foam mattress, browsing online might be the better option. But, if you’re looking for a hybrid or an innerspring bed, you may prefer shopping in-store.

Online Deals

Online mattress companies, or mattress-in-a-box brands, offer higher quality materials because they don’t have to worry about paying commissions or storage fees. You can get a high-quality mattress at a lower price online compared to in-store. When you order an online mattress, the bed is compressed, rolled up, and delivered to your door in a box for convenience.

The only drawback to online shopping is that you’re not able to try out the mattress before purchasing. However, online companies offer extensive sleep trials, which give you up to 100 nights to try out a new bed. If you don’t like it, you can return the mattress.

In-Store Specials

If you would rather try out a mattress before buying it, you’ll like shopping at brick-and-mortar stores. These shops have showrooms where you can try out different mattress models.

Some stores may have specific brands in stock so that you can enjoy your new bed that night. Mattress stores may also offer white glove delivery services. Professionals install your new mattress and take away the old one.

A drawback to in-store shopping is that companies may only offer 30-day return policies. This time period is shorter than the 100-night sleep trials from online stores, but you may feel 30 days is still plenty of time to adjust to a new sleep surface.

What Mattress Companies Offer

Each deal is different, depending on the mattress brand. Some companies lower their prices, while others include free gifts with each purchase. Some companies even offer a combination of these deals.

Discounts

Discounts are either percentages or price cuts automatically applied with a code at checkout or register. Keep in mind that some companies may increase the original price before advertising the discount, making the sale price appear more attractive to customers. To avoid this, compare mattress prices with other retailers to make sure you’re getting a good deal.

Freebies

Freebies are usually sleeping accessories, like pillows and bed sheets, but they may also include White Glove Delivery services. While free gifts are great, don’t immediately jump on this type of deal.

Look at everything that’s being offered first, and decide if the price tag is worth it. You may not need or want the freebie attached to a new mattress, or the bed may not be exactly what you want.

Bundles

Bundle deals are similar to freebies, though bundles may include higher-priced items. For example, some in-store companies include a free box spring or adjustable base with the purchase of a new mattress.

Like with freebie deals, if you don’t need a box spring or whatever extra items are included in a bundle, it’s okay to keep looking. Don’t settle for something you don’t love.

Rebates

Rebates are dollar amounts returned to you after the transaction. You may receive your rebate immediately in the form of a written check or gift card at the register, but most rebates take a few weeks.

The most common rebate method involves mailing your receipt to the company and waiting for them to process the transaction before you receive your rebate in the mail. This may seem like a tedious process, especially if you need the money now. Instead, discount deals might be the better option, because the amount is taken out immediately before the transaction.

Helpful Shopping Tips

If you’re not careful, you could experience buyer’s remorse. To avoid this, practice some smart shopping tactics. This will help you maintain a level head and keep you focused on finding what you want.

Start Early

You don’t have to wait until the Fourth of July weekend to start shopping. Many deals happen a few days before the actual date, but retailers begin promoting their Independence Day specials as early as mid-June. This gives you time to compare different pricing from different brands. Plus, some companies have limited stock, so if there’s a particular mattress brand you want, it’s a good idea to check in early to make sure you don’t miss anything.

Do the Research

If you’re not sure what type of mattress to buy, you may want to take some time to do some research. Researching the different types of mattresses ahead of time can give you a better idea of what each mattress type has to offer, including their benefits and drawbacks.

Plus, if you’re not sure about a potential bed, check out the sleep trial or return policy. These perks give you time to try out a new mattress and allow you to return the bed if it’s not comfortable. Most companies will offer a full refund.

Set a Budget

It’s always a good idea to set a budget before shopping. Otherwise, you may get caught up in the sales event and spend more than you planned. Keep in mind that mattress pricing depends on bed size and mattress materials.

For example, organic latex mattresses will cost more than memory foam beds because organic latex is highly durable. If you have a particular mattress in mind, set a budget accordingly.

Read the Fine Print

Before committing to a particular mattress, always read the fine print. Checking even the most minor details in a return policy can save you from getting stuck with a cheap mattress. For instance, some mattress sales are final, meaning, if the bed doesn’t work out, you won’t be able to return it.

Mattress manufacturers should give you time to try out a new mattress properly, and offer a means of returning it if you don’t like the bed. Also, read the warranty to determine what the mattress manufacturer can expect of you and what you can expect from the mattress manufacturer.

Most beds come with a 10-year warranty, covering manufacturing defects and sagging at least 1-inch deep. Warranties hold the mattress manufacturer accountable in case of damages.

Choosing the Right Mattress Firmness

Selecting the appropriate mattress firmness is essential for comfort, support, and proper spinal alignment.

Here’s a quick guide based on your sleeping position:

• Mattresses for side sleepers should have medium to soft firmness for pressure relief on shoulders and hips.
• Mattresses for back sleepers need a medium to medium-firm for support and light contouring.
• Mattresses for stomach sleepers need to be medium-firm to firm to maintain proper spine support.
• Mattresses for combination sleepers should offer a medium firmness for versatility across various positions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who has the best 4th of July mattress sale?

The multiple brands we’ve spotlighted offer excellent deals for Independence Day, along with many more brands we haven’t mentioned. The best mattress deal isn’t necessarily the lowest-priced option but the one that most closely matches what you’re looking for in a mattress.

So you’ll want to consider the material, firmness, thickness, and mattress size you want this Fourth of July and shop accordingly.

Should I buy a mattress online or in store during 4th of July sales?

Online shopping is the best way to save on a new mattress. Web-based mattress stores have fewer overhead costs to cover, so they offer their mattresses and sleep accessories at lower prices.

Plus, while many tout the ability to try out an in-store model as the way to know if a mattress is right for you, a few minutes on a showroom mattress isn’t the same as a full night’s rest. The sleep trial that comes with most online mattresses is the better way to check if a mattress is right for you.

How much should I pay for a mattress during 4th of July sales?

You don’t have to spend thousands of dollars on a high-end mattress. Most high-quality beds are available at $1,200 for a queen. The price tag depends on the mattress size and the number of materials they contain.

For instance, innersprings are one of the least expensive mattresses, because they mostly contain steel coils with a thin foam comfort layer. Memory foam mattresses may cost more than innersprings, because they contain dense foam layers that may include cooling materials, like gel or copper.

Are cheap mattresses worth it during 4th of July sales?

You can get a high-quality mattress for $1,200, but you may not have the budget for that right now. However, it’s not a good idea to buy a mattress with a low price tag (less than $500), because these types of beds don’t last that long and may break down within a couple of years.

But, there is an exception. If the mattress is meant as a guest bed, then going for a cheaper mattress might be a good idea. Guest beds aren’t used regularly, so they may last longer.

How can I get the best deal on a mattress during 4th of July sales?

Looking at online mattresses is one of the best ways to ensure you get a lower price on a high-quality mattress. It’s also smart to shop the pre-sales in the lead-up to Fourth of July, as many mattress brands will begin offering discounts as much as a week in advance.

To maximize the expected value of your mattress, look for one with an extensive warranty. A sleep trial will also give you a fallback if the mattress isn’t quite what you expect.

How do you know when you need to replace your mattress?

A sign that it’s time to replace your mattress is when the bed is sagging noticeably or is otherwise uncomfortable. Mattresses lose support as they age, and this lack of support can cause morning back pain and other aches. You should also replace your mattress if its soiled or smelly, or otherwise in less than great condition.

Are You Ready for the Fourth of July Sales?

This Fourth of July could be the perfect time to replace that old mattress. You can get a great deal online or in-store. Following our simple shopping tips and researching what you want beforehand can help narrow down your options and keep you focused on finding the best deal.
