Happy Labor Day! Right about now you may be feeling the effects of three days of hiking, swimming and partying. We'll take that as a cue to remind you of the importance of getting enough sleep ... and for doing it on a quality mattress.

The best Labor Day mattress deals
Type: Hybrid, extra firm
Get 30% off when you clip the on-page coupon at Amazon, bringing this 12-inch-thick mattress down to just $245 for the queen. It features memory foam atop an independent pocketed spring layer for support, plus two additional layers of high-density support foam. While it's firm, it's still plenty comfortable with ample support, fans say.
"So comfortable," said one Amazon reviewer. "I was afraid to buy a mattress in a box, but decided on this one. I'm so happy I did! It's firm but soft on top with limited motion transfer. Best sleep I've had in a couple years. The fit is standard. It expanded to 12 inches thick. Easy to set up. The seams appear to be durable. The quilted top is lovely. ... Oh! And it didn’t stink when opened."
Type: Memory foam, medium firm
Save 40% on this mattress and even add a few bedding extras like sheets and pillows to your order while they're marked down. The 13-inch pressure-relieving memory foam mattress has built-in cooling fibers and is Nectar's most popular model. It comes with a 365-Night Home Trial, which means that after a year of sleeping on it, if you still can't get comfy, you can return it for a full refund.
"I get some of the best sleep I have ever had on this bed," said one reviewer. "I usually wake up tired and frustrated from being so hot and uncomfortable. This bed keeps me cool and comfortable all night. Make sure to use the [brand's] sheets and pillows. I love it."
Type: Hybrid, medium firm
This top-rated Leesa mattress is 30% off, and it comes with a free set of pillows and sheets. Plus, it ships for free. People love that it has over 1,000 individually wrapped springs and two layers of breathable foam on top to provide pressure relief and support. This mattress is best for "bodies that like a medium- to medium-firm feel with some cushioning and bounce," according to the brand.
"Seriously, it's almost too comfortable. I sleep so heavily and it's so hard to wake up," shared a fan. "I sleep in various positions. I love stomach sleeping, but it's always felt tough on my body. With this mattress, I sink in perfectly, it's insanely comfortable. I would say it's a soft-firm. Good movement — my partner moves a lot and it hasn't woken me up lately. So far we are obsessed."
Type: Hybrid, medium firm
If you're a hot sleeper, grab the Snow mattress while it's 30% off this weekend. It features three layers of the brand's "Snow Technology" cooling foam to keep you from sweating as you sleep, and its specially zoned surface helps keep your spine in alignment no matter which way you sleep.
"Like sleeping on a marshmallow," said one reviewer. "Getting the Snow Casper mattress has literally changed our life. On our old mattress, neither my husband nor I were able to get a good night's sleep. One of us would end up on the couch due to back pain every other night. With the Snow mattress, we are sleeping through the night and waking up refreshed and energized. 10/10 would buy this mattress again!"
Birch by Helix
Type: Hybrid, medium
This luxury mattress 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. And the separate layers of latex cradle your body while reducing stress on your lower back.
"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%."
