Birch
Birch is made by the same people as Helix, but the Birch line is eco-friendly and makes some of the best organic mattresses out there. Birch is running a 25 percent off sale Plus, two free pillows with the purchase of any mattress (use code LDW25 at checkout). It’s a similar offer to what we saw Birch run around July 4th and Memorial Day, but it’s still a good deal. But if you want a better deal, check out the furniture store Raymour & Flannigan is also conducting a sale and they currently sell the Birch Luxe Natural mattress for $200 less than Birch. However, they both have the more affordable Birch Natural for the same price.
Avocado
Avocado makes our favorite organic mattress, and for Labor Day, the company is running a promotion with up to 20 percent off. The mattress we recommend is currently 15 percent off, but only $100 off the usual price since we often see a 10 percent discount of some sort at Avocado. This is a bit better than we usually find and the same price we’ve seen for other major events like Memorial Day.
Leesa
Leesa has made fantastic mattresses for years that tend to always end up in the second spot of our mattress recommendation. The Leesa Sapira Hybrid was our second choice for years as a great all-around mattress, especially for the price (and that was before the Labor Day sale!), while the new Leesa Sapira Chill recently took that spot with its fantastic cooling cover. The deal isn’t great so far, but it does include two free pillows.
Casper
Casper is pretty famous in the boxed mattress world. The brand recently revamped its entire mattress line, and Casper’s new base mattress, The One, is now our favorite all-foam mattress. It’s already a very affordable mattress, but it’s still on sale for Labor Day with a slight discount. We normally see it for under $900, and right now you can get it for $800.
Other Labor Day Mattress Deals
These deals aren’t as good as the ones above, and they’re usually found year-round. Still, it’s a good price that we typically recommend buying these mattresses for, even if it’s not the best discount in town. We’ll update this guide as we get closer to Labor Day with any changes that might make these deals better (or worse).

Brooklyn bedding
I’ve recently made the switch to plank-style mattresses after trying Brooklyn Bedding’s Plank Firm Natural mattress. But we like a few different firm mattresses from Brooklyn Bedding, all of which are on sale right now for 25 percent off with the code LABORDAY25. The code should automatically apply when you add the mattress to your cart. It’s not a huge deal—this is the price we typically see these mattresses listed for. Still, we generally recommend buying them at this price.
Bear
Bear makes our favorite side-sleeping mattress, the Bear Elite. Bear is offering a discount of up to 35 percent right now, but the $1,499 price tag is a price we typically see it available for, so it’s not a particularly exciting deal. Still, it’s the price we recommend buying it for rather than the higher price it tends to fetch from time to time.
Purple
If you sleep hot, start searching—we think Purple makes the best cooling mattress. Purple’s site offers up to $500 off the Restore line, but our recommended mattress is only $300 off (and we often see it for $300 off anyway). Still, it’s a great mattress if you want to sleep cooler at night.
