If you still haven’t made good on your resolutions to get more sleep, we’ve got some news. A bunch of Presidents Day mattress sales have already started surfacing just in time to save your year (and your aching back). Historically, the holiday is one of the most auspicious times of the year to find a new bed for way less than its usual sticker price, with some of the discounts even rivaling Black Friday prices. And though it doesn’t officially drop until later this month, early bird deals are trickling in already if you can’t be bothered to wait.
Below, we’ve pulled together a curated list of deals on mattresses we’ve tested firsthand from trusted brands like Casper and Helix—ones where we can vouch for the quality, firmness, plushness, as well as deluxe features like a customizable pillow or euro top or a design with an adjustable base. In a few cases where we haven’t had a chance to test drive them ourselves, we’ve also highlighted some more best-sellers from other popular brands like Serta. Come back and see us later, as we’ll have more intel to add to this growing lineup of Presidents Day mattress sales.
AD contributor Gabriela Ulloa called the Helix Midnight Luxe “the cradled hug we’ve all been craving” in her review a few years ago, and right now you can find it for 20% off—along with everything else on the x site. The brand is even throwing in a a free bedroom bundle with each mattress purchase, including two Dream pillows, a mattress protector, and a free sheet set.

Not one, but two AD staffers—contributor Katie Henwood and senior features editor Nick Mafi—have sung the praises of their Nectar beds. This original is an oldie but a goodie—it’s temperature regulated, boasts contouring pressure relief, and a responsive support layer to promote proper spinal alignment. Henwood calls this mattress “a dream come true for all kinds of sleepers,” which offers extra support without sacrificing comfort and feels “like falling into a cloud” every night. It was this kind of feedback that led us to name this memory foam mattress the best mattress-in-a-box during our first-ever Sleep Awards in 2022. Right now, the brand is offering up to 50% off—in other words, you won’t want to hit snooze on this mattress deal.

Casper is a stalwart among our staffers’ favorite mattress brands. We’ve tested five of their beds so far, and were thrilled to see some of our favorites included in their 20% off Presidents’ Day sale. Two standout hybrid mattress picks are marked down: the cooling Snow Max and the Dream Max, both of which we found to be suitable for sleepers who like a middle ground between plush and firm. For a budget-friendly pick you won’t lose sleep over, we also recommend The One, Casper’s entry-level foam mattress, now on sale for $600.
