This Saatva hybrid features a genius layered design, combining the support of innersprings with the plush comfort of memory foam to provide a more comfortable sleep. PureWow editors are particularly fond of this bed, which we tested, and found that it helped us get to sleep faster and wake up *so* refreshed each day. Better yet, it's topped with a layer of breathable organic cotton and coated in a botanical, antimicrobial treatment to prevent mold and bacterial growth (meaning you can plan on using it for a long time to come). PureWow readers can snag an exclusive $350 discount on any size when you use our link below.

Prefer an all-foam mattress? Nectar’s bed-in-a-box models feature multiple layers of foam for the perfect balance of support, pressure relief and softness. Side sleeper, back sleeper, stomach sleeper—whatever your sleep style, you’ll find the comfort you need in this bed’s sweet spot between soft and firm, not to mention the therapeutic gel memory foam layer that aims to hit pressure points from your shoulders to your legs to promote spinal alignment. Couples will be even more impressed with the bed's minimal motion transfer (thanks to that foam stability base), so you won't wake each other up in the middle of the night.

This PureWow reader-favorite mattress boasts a firm feel you'll adore and contouring support you didn't think was possible. Sleep-enhancing features include a 3-inch breathable adaptive foam layer infused with cooling gel, a 6.5-inch base that offers foundation support (so you don't sink in!) and lastly, a plush cover that's designed to be durable and comfy, no matter your preferred sleep position. One reviewer writes, "As a side sleeper, I was worried that the original might be too firm, but it is very comfortable. I have no shoulder pain when I wake up. It also supports my back well, so I’m comfortable in any position."

Boasting more than 12,000 glowing reviews (seriously), this "lux" hybrid bed certainly lives up to its name. It features six luxurious layers of premium memory foam with a base of contouring coils that should adapt to your form. The brand is even endorsed by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA), which means it has been reviewed by a board of doctors to ensure it's up to the highest standards in terms of support for your spine and back. While that’s one stamp of approval you can definitely trust, you might also want to consider what this shopper has to say: "It is literally like sleeping on a cloud! It is by far the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on." Don't forget to use code LABORDAYSALE at checkout if you want to save over a thousand bucks on it now.

After trying five different mattresses, one PureWow editor said *this* was the only one that really helped her back pain. You can read her full review here, but this quote pretty much sums it up: "I noticed a difference from the very first night when I didn’t wake up at 5 a.m. with the sudden urge to lay on my hardwood floor to get some [relief]." As the editor also noted, "because this Casper model uses softer materials under the shoulders and firmer ones around the hips, waist and lower back, it aligns my spine no matter how I sleep." That can be credited to the bed's alternating support zones, which use both gel and foam to promote healthy spinal alignment and prevent sinking, per the brand.

Sealy put cooling mattresses (which help regulate your temperature as you fall asleep) on the map. But the brand's other features, like fabric-encased coils, pillow-top comfort and added edge support are what really sets it apart. No wonder buyers adore this Chill hybrid mattress. Springy coils offer up some bounce, while a memory foam layer contours to the body for a dreamy night's sleep. Most importantly, of course, is the fact that it's designed entirely to keep you cool and comfortable—and hot sleepers agree that it does a great job of it, not least of all due to its ventilated airflow coils and heat-dissipating cover. "The chill memory foam technology was a no brainer," one reviewer writes. "It's a beautiful thing to not be sweaty while trying to sleep. Truly happy with the product and sleep like a baby!"

In addition to nearly 15,000 5-star reviews, this buzzy organic mattress has earned a stamp of approval from PureWow Commerce Director Nicole Briese, who claimed it totally banished her hip pain as a side-sleeper. "The medium-firm cush of the Avocado Green with a pillow top offered a just-right level of support for my aching sides," she wrote in her review of it. The eco-friendly bed is constructed with organic latex, organic wool and organic cotton, and features a five-zone coil system to help distribute weight more evenly (and thus take pressure off your pain points). Briese also confirmed the bed's motion-transfer-minimizing coil design, stating, "While I can sense when my boyfriend or cats are moving around, my body doesn’t bounce along with them." Keep getting woken up by pets or partners (or both)? Use code LABORDAY at checkout to save on this sleep-saving option.

Like the idea of a supportive memory foam mattress with cooling technology and an adjustable base? Well, Tempur-Pedic offers personalized pressure relief with all its memory foam mattresses, meaning they should conform to your body and keep you comfortable all night long. Spring for an adjustable power base (also on sale right now), and you can take it to an entirely new level with tons of elevated head and foot positions. This will especially come in handy to help relieve nighttime annoyances, such as acid reflux (IYKYK).
