Snuggle up to sweet celebratory savings on sumptuous snoozers from Amazon, Casper, Wayfair and more. (Amazon/Nectar/Casper/Birch)((Amazon/Nectar/Casper/Birch))More
This holiday weekend, we're reminded of these words from John Adams: "Always stand on principle, even if you stand alone." Specifically we're reminded of how much we disagree: C'mon, it's a holiday! You've been standing all week! Lie down, take a nap!
Seriously, though: As someone who suffers from chronic exhaustion, I know just how important sleep can be. I also know the single most important factor in getting some satisfying slumber time is a great mattress; however, just like a quality car, the good models don't often come cheap.
You won't have to lose sleep about dropping major dollars on an upgrade, though — there are a plethora of July 4th mattress deals still going strong, including spectacular sales on dependable brands like Sealy, Serta, Casper, Nectar and more. Check our favorite price cuts on snuggly sleepers worth the spend.
Sleep warm? Sealy's bed-in-a-box line, Cocoon, has carved out a space among cooling options with its Chill Mattress, which comes in both memory foam and hybrid constructions. Both feature a cover that promises to help absorb and dissipate heat, and you can nab them for a cool 35% off, along with everything else on the site. The brand is also throwing in a free Sealy Sleep Bundle, which includes two pillows, a sheet set and a mattress protector.
Nearly 7,000 customers have given this mattress a five-star rating. Said one, "I love this mattress! As an older woman, I have problems sleeping, but from the first night, I slept like a baby. I don't sweat at night either. It's perfect, and I have recommended it to several people."

Paid for by Serta
Serta has been around for more than 90 years, and the brand has used that experience to create some pretty innovative mattresses. The iComfort comes in four thicknesses and three firmnesses, and all versions include a 1-inch-thick layer of memory foam infused with graphite, which has naturally cooling properties.
During the sale, you can save up to $625 on the iComfort when you buy it with the Motion Renew Adjustable Base. And in honor of the Serta Counting Sheep's birthday — the mascot is turning 25! — there's an extra $25 off all sale.
First up, we have Casper, which is offering up to 35% off everything including pillows, adjustable bases and sheets. The brand's Dream Hybrid is a good option if you don't want to go for an all-memory-foam mattress. It offers medium support that becomes slightly firmer toward the center of the mattress, so it doesn't dip by your back.
"It's the perfect firmness for two people who have slightly different preferences in that regard; we couldn't be happier!" wrote one of the 2,900-plus five-star reviewers.
Bear offers plenty of chances to customize your mattress, with three firmnesses and the option to add a cooling cover made with with Celliant, a fiber designed to absorb heat from the body that's also used in exercise clothing.
Right now, you can score 35% off the entire site, plus two free pillows. More than 3,000 reviewers have given the Elite Hybrid, the brand's most popular mattress, five stars. "Perfect bed for me. I'm a big guy and I feel like the mattress easily supports my weight, regardless of how many times I toss and turn. I've definitely gotten more sleep as a result of switching," wrote one fan.
Many of us are trying to make our homes more eco-friendly, and a good way to get on board is with an organic mattress. Avocado is one of the most popular brands, and right now it's offering up to 20% off. Presidents' Day Sale highlights include $130 off the top-rated Eco Organic Mattress, which is constructed with pocketed coils, organic latex and GOTS-certified organic cotton and wool.
"The mattress is just the right firmness and is incredibly comfortable. I especially loved not having to air it out to get rid of faint chemical smells immediately upon arrival," wrote one shopper.
A queen-size mattress for under $500? We'll take one for every room in the house! It's certainly hard to beat the price of Brooklyn Bedding's Copperflex line, especially now that the entire site is 30% off with code PRESDAY30.
This mattress doesn't sacrifice features for price: It's 12 inches thick (many similarly priced memory foam options are 10 inches), and it's infused with naturally antimicrobial copper. It also has zoned lumbar support and a layer of cooling gel foam.
This luxury hybrid is made with more natural materials, including wool, natural latex, cotton and steel coils. Wool is temperature-regulating, so you won't sweat as you sleep this summer.

You'll enjoy 25% off sitewide and two free pillows (a $149+ value!) at Birch's Fourth of July sale using code JULY25.
"I absolutely love this mattress," said a shopper. "I love that it's nontoxic, and it's super comfy. I sleep like a baby, best sleep ever. Not too soft and not too firm, it's right in between. This is the only mattress I recommend 100%."
The brand name here is apt — you're not gonna do much better than $152 for a queen-size 10-inch memory foam wonder like this. At over 30% off, you'll certainly be having sweet dreams about all the money you're saving too. This mega-popular pick, with over 20,000 five-star reviews, is infused with calming green tea in multiple layers of supporting foam, perfect for curling up after a long day.
Is there anything better than a good night's sleep? Nope. Nearly 6,000 Wayfair shoppers gave this Sealy favorite — now an awesome 65% off — five stars. The foam mattress is layered with gel and memory foam for custom support, distributing weight evenly and relieving pressure points.
Rest easy knowing all Sealy foams in this mattress meet CertiPUR-US safety standards. It's delivered in a box right to your door for easy setup.
This 14-inch fave gets high marks for a plush, soft feel and a surprisingly low price. Made from cooling-gel memory foam atop a layer of traditional pocketed coils, it's also Wayfair-verified, which means it passes a 20-point quality inspection. Skeptical? There's a 100-night trial.
"If you didn't know the brand and price ahead of time, you would think it was easily an $800-$1,000 mattress," said one budget-savvy buyer. "Although very plush, it still supports my entire body (220 pounds) evenly, and I have been sleeping soundly and waking up rested each day."
Not sold on foam? Don't worry: Here's a no-fail $300-off option for innerspring lovers, with two thick coil layers and a cushy pillow top. It comes in three firmness levels, with the middle-of-the-road "luxury firm" designed to "replicate the feel of hotel beds." (Wish it came with room service too!)
"Highly recommended, and I'm quite a diva," admitted one discriminating buyer. "I hold every company I deal with to what they have promised. My husband has chronic pain, and honestly, I usually complain about everything. This mattress is great."
Nectar's 4th of July deals are among the absolute sweetest we've seen. You can snag up to half off mattresses and 66% off mattress and bed frame bundles, including major savings on this 12-inch foam pick. It's topped with a cooling cover too, and backed by a particularly impressive 365-day trial. (That's right — you get a whole year to make a final decision.) It has a medium-firm feel that reviewers say is hard to beat, especially for those with back pain.
"Coming up on three years and still going strong," says one longtime owner. "The no-motion transfer is a game changer. I never feel my husband jump (turn) over at night, and it's also the perfect firmness. Not too hard and not too soft. I’ll never buy another mattress."
