A 365-night home trial

Is Black Friday a Good Time to Buy a Mattress?

Yes, it can be, especially if you were already planning to replace your mattress.Buying a mattress around Black Friday makes sense if:

Your mattress is old (many start to sag or lose support around 7–10 years)
You wake up sore, overheated, or more tired than you'd like
You're furnishing a spare bedroom, guest room, or a first apartment
You'd like a frame, base, or bedding bundle to go with your mattress

If your current mattress is not providing the comfort and sleep experience you want, it's a good time to shop.Nectar's 365-night home trial also takes some of the pressure off. You get a full year to decide, which is helpful because a new mattress may feel firmer for the first two to four weeks while it breaks in.

Which Mattress Should You Buy? Start With How You Sleep

Sleep position is the easiest place to start, since it points you toward a firmness level.

Stomach sleepers: firm
Back sleepers: medium-firm
Side sleepers: medium to medium-soft
Combination sleepers: medium-firm to medium

Next, choose between memory foam and hybrid.

Memory foam is designed to contour to your body and isolate motion well, which can help if your partner moves a lot.
Hybrid mattresses add a coil layer, which typically means more airflow, so they're a common choice for hot sleepers.

Within the Nectar mattress lineup, the tiers are Classic, Premier, Luxe, and Ultra. Each tier increase adds more pressure-relieving memory foam: Premier has 2x the memory foam of Classic, Luxe has 3x, and Ultra has 4x (compared with the Classic version of the same type).

Mattress	Height	Feel	Best for
Nectar Classic Memory Foam	12 inches	Firm	Stomach sleepers, value shoppers
Nectar Premier Memory Foam	13 inches	Medium-firm	Back and combination sleepers
Nectar Premier Hybrid	13 inches	Medium	Couples, motion control
Nectar Luxe Hybrid	14 inches	Medium-soft	Side sleepers
Nectar Ultra Memory Foam	15 inches	Medium-soft	Maximum pressure relief
Nectar Ultra Hybrid	15 inches	Soft	Hot sleepers, plush comfort
