If you’ve been dreaming all year of saving serious cash on a new mattress, this is the moment you’ve been waiting for. We’re channeling our inner Dick Clark on New Year’s Eve, counting down the days till Black Friday is upon us. But, hold the phone—the best early Black Friday Mattress Deals are starting now. From the best mattresses for back pain to our favorite cooling options, these are the top deals on mattresses the Reviews team has tested in their own homes. We also track prices all year to see where the best sales are really happening.
So, if it’s on this list, it’s genuinely a good deal. Heads-up: While all prices listed below are for queen sizes, the deals should still apply to all mattress sizes. Your dreams of a new king mattress are still going strong.
We’ve got more early Black Friday sales coverage hot off the press, and we’ll keep it coming your way through Cyber Monday.
WIRED Featured Deals
Bear
The WIRED Reviews team has crowned the Bear Elite Hybrid as the best mattress for back pain we’ve tested to date. It comes in three firmness options, including Soft, Medium, and Firm. WIRED testers have found Firm helpful for spinal alignment, and you can also add a Celliant cover for a fee, designed to help with muscle recovery. In addition to the sale, Bear is also throwing in a free accessories bundle (two pillows, a sheet set, and a mattress protector). Use WIRED40 for 40 percent off, which is an additional 5 percent off the current offer on the site.
Helix
We test many, many mattresses—so it’s saying something that the Helix Midnight Luxe has been our favorite overall mattress for seven years running. This specific model is designed for side sleepers, but the brand’s slogan is “designed for every body”—there are plenty of options for every sleeping position. Helix’s Black Friday sale is underway, but you can get additional savings by using our exclusive coupon code WIRED27 for 27 percent off.
Saatva
Saatva mattresses strive to be the intersection of luxury, natural materials, and support for many sleepers. One model in particular that we’ve tested, the Saatva Rx, offers serious pressure relief for even the most persistent aches and pains. It incorporates micro coils and pressure-relief foam, so the price is usually on the higher side. However, Saatva’s holiday sales promo should take some strain off your wallet, as you can save $400 off purchases of $1,000 or more. Use our link below.
Nolah
The top pick we’ve tested for side sleepers, Nolah’s Evolution Hybrid, effortlessly bundles together pressure relief, temperature regulation, and spine alignment. The brand is also stacking up a good deal for Black Friday, starting right now. In addition to the 35 percent off sale now, use code WIRED50 for an extra $50 off.
Birch
If you’re looking to get memory foams and other manmade materials out of your bedroom in favor of an all-organic mattress, the Birch Luxe Natural has been a consistent winner for us. It has an organic cotton Euro top that gives your pressure points a cushioned surface to slightly sink into. Layers of natural wool are incorporated underneath for breathable temperature control. Latex is pressure-relieving, like memory foam, but without any chemicals involved. It’s also organic, with Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS) certification. Pocketed coils help support you where you need it most. Birch is also throwing in two free pillows with every mattress purchase. To make it even better, you can use code WIRED27 for even more savings.
Silk & Snow
Canadian brand Silk & Snow uses high-quality materials and thoughtful construction in its mattresses, with prices that are hard to argue with. In the S&S Organic hybrid’s case, there are several organic certifications too. With GOLS-certified organic cotton, organic wool, and GOLS-certified latex atop pocketed coils, it eliminates any guesswork about materials and focuses solely on support. For Black Friday, Silk & Snow is offering up to $300 off on mattresses, no code needed.
Avocado
Avocado takes the notion of “all-natural” mattresses very seriously, with an extensive list of certifications to back its claims. The Avocado Green hybrid mattress comes in Firm (base model), Medium (pillow top), and Plush (box top, which is an even thicker version of a softer pillow top). Medium and Plush cost a bit extra, but we previously tested the Firm model and loved it. Its organic latex and coil construction provided lumbar support, temperature regulation, and pressure relief to the point where it got a near-perfect score. For Avocado’s Black Friday mattress sale, you can take 20 percent off your purchase, no code needed.

Wolf
Wolf mattresses are not ones you should overlook. Each time our team has tested a Wolf mattress, we were impressed with its quality and performance. The Wolf 13-inch Memory Foam Hybrid Premium Firm Mattress is quite a name, but the experience is anything but. It excels with temperature control thanks to a cooling cover, foams, and coils. This hybrid is just firm enough that you can move around without feeling stuck, but it also maintains spinal alignment. Wolf’s Black Friday mattress sale is live, with 15 percent off on your purchase.
