Avocado Fall mattress sale

Save up to $300 on a Reviewed-approved Avocado mattress

If you're hunting for a mattress that is both comfortable and environmentally friendly, Avocado is the place to shop. The online brand is currently hosting its Fall sale with savings of up to $300 on select mattresses. We've tested the Avocado Green mattress and found it to be a worthwhile sleeper—we loved that the springy mattress didn't retain too much body heat. Our tester found it to be "super bouncy," which gave the mattress a nice balance of comfort and coziness. The queen size of the Avocado Green is typically listed for $1,899, but using the code GREEN at checkout brings that price down to just $1,699. You can also get $100 off its Eco Organic mattress when you use code SNOOZE, bringing the price down from $1,299 to $1,199 in the queen size.

Save $300 on any mattress and get up to $499 worth of accessories for free

We love that Awara mattresses are built like traditional sleepers—made of cotton, latex foam, coils and wool—and, right now, as part of the brand's current sale, you can save $300 on any mattress, get up to $499 worth of free accessories and take advantage of a free 365-night trial period so you can truly decide whether or not an Awara sleeper is right for you. The Awara Natural hybrid mattress we tested is down from $1,399 in the queen size to $1,099, saving you $300. Plus, you'll receive $499 worth of free accessories for free including a sheet set, mattress protector and cooling pillow. With good overall support, especially for side and back sleeping, the coils add bounce and it absorbs body motion nicely. While it is heavy (at about 129 pounds for the queen size), this mattress didn't have the unpleasant off-gassing odor you can sometimes get when unboxing a new mattress. Pair your new sleeper with the Awara adjustable bed frame that's down from $999 in the queen size to $699—a whopping $300 markdown.

Brooklyn Bedding's Fall sale is currently offering shoppers 25% off its line of mattresses with coupon code ANNIVERSARY25. Named one of our favorite mattresses-in-a-box, the Brooklyn Bedding Signature hybrid mattress is on sale starting at just $524.30. The queen size of this mattress is usually $1,249 but during the current sale, you can snag it for just $936.80 using the promo code ANNIVERSARY25. Brooklyn Bedding also has unconventional mattress sizes, including short and RV bed mattresses. Our reviewer, who tested the medium-firm type and found the surface too forgiving when sleeping on her stomach, recommended opting for the firm option if you sleep mostly on your stomach or back. Note that it runs warmer than other sleepers but, if you prefer softer and squishier, it's a good option.

DreamCloud makes a comfortable and fairly affordable hybrid that our tester called a great choice for those who sleep hot and like a supportive sleep surface.

Amazon October Prime Day 2022: Shopping guide

What is the Prime Early Access sale?

The Prime Early Access sale is Amazon's October Prime Day sales event. The first ever Prime Early Access sale is set for Tuesday, October 11 and Wednesday, October 12. Similar to Amazon Prime Day held in July, Amazon Prime members can expect rock-bottom prices on everything from fashion and tech to home essentials and kitchen items. The exclusive two-day sale is available to both new and existing Prime members. Not an Amazon Prime subscriber yet? Don't worry, you can sign up right now.

When is the Prime Early Access sale?

Amazon's two-day sales event starts on Tuesday, October 11 and runs through Wednesday, October 12. But, there are plenty of deals available to shop before the big event!

What is Amazon Prime Day?

Amazon Prime Day is a two-day savings event held annually, during which Amazon offers Prime members incredible, often first-of-their-kind deals on popular and Reviewed-approved products, from housewares to tech, small businesses to national brands. We saw huge deals during Amazon Prime Day 2022 on Tuesday, July 12 and Wednesday, July 13, and the just-announced Prime Early Access sale is expected to have many of the same Prime Day-level markdowns. If you want to get ready for the savings, you can sign up for a free 30-day trial of Prime right now. You can also find out which Prime membership you qualify for today.

Sign up for Amazon Prime

How do I find Prime Early Access deals ahead of time?

Stay right here, because there are already Prime Early Access deals on high-quality tech and user-friendly kitchen items, and we have the inside scoop. For the best—most prime, ahem—deals, you'll have to wait until Tuesday, October 11; for now, they're under lock and key.

You can also trust us here at Reviewed, because, nerds that we are, we know products intimately. When we aren't testing them at home or in our Cambridge, Massachusetts lab, we are researching them online to gauge other consumers' experiences. Basically, we can recommend the best right now of pretty much any product in the home, tech and lifestyle markets.

Lastly, if you see a deal that's too good to be true, jump on it. Some deals do sell out fairly quickly. These are lightning deals, which are typically live anywhere from one to six hours.

Where can you shop the best Prime Day mattress deals?

The best mattress deals are available from popular sleep retailers, including Leesa, Brooklyn Bedding, Awara and Mattress Firm—many of the companies that rank among the top mattresses we have tested. The best mattress deals are offering up to $1,000 off select mattresses and some companies even throw in a pair of pillows, sheets or other bedding items for free. With certain sales, you can also save on bed frames, mattress protectors and other sleep accessories to complete your new bedroom set or upgrade.

In addition to the current mattress sales, some mattress brands offer first-time shoppers anywhere from 15% to 20% off their first purchase if you sign up for email alerts. Along with those extra discounts, select mattress brands offer free white glove delivery, free shipping and even free returns or trial periods in some cases. If you choose to have your mattress delivered, you can typically schedule a delivery timeframe within a certain window, usually about four hours, so the mattress arrives when you can arrange to be home.

How long does a mattress last?

Mattress expiration dates fall somewhere between eight and 12 years, with many brands suggesting that a decade-old mattress is one that's ready to be replaced. Along with the expiration date, there are other signs like tossing and turning or sniffling and sneezing that could mean you're due for a new mattress.

Are there free mattress trials?

Nearly every mattress brand we’ve tested offers a trial period during which you can test out the mattress for a specified period of time, because there’s nothing like actually sleeping on it. For instance, you can try an Awara mattress for 365 nights.
