Want more deals? Visit CNN Underscored’s Guide to Black Friday for wall-to-wall coverage of the best discounts to be found during the biggest shopping event of the year.
I used to be the kind of shopper who didn’t want to spend a lot of money on my sleep, but ever since I started focusing on product reviews and testing adjustable pillows, comfortable mattresses, down comforters and flannel sheets, I’ve recognized just how beneficial investing in a restful slumber can be. Because the reality is — and stop me if you’ve heard this before — we spend roughly one-third of our lives asleep. We might as well get the most out of it.
Maybe you’re finally waking up to that idea too, or you’re just smart enough to know the best time to shop for a new mattress is right now, because Black Friday deals are underway. Either way, I searched the web to find the best sales on mattresses we’ve tested and other scores from trustworthy retailers.

Why these Black Friday deals are worth shopping
It’s becoming rarer and rarer that retailers like the ones covered in this article save the best sales for the lone day of Black Friday. Instead, they launch their top discounts of the year for an extended period around the shopping holiday, sometimes for all of November. That’s why we can assure you these are discounts worth considering.
Why trust CNN Underscored
I’ve been testing a diverse range of products for over a year, so I’m fully immersed in the online shopping landscape and I know a good deal when I see one. It’s my goal to pass those savings on to you. With the help of CNN Underscored senior deals editor Rikka Altland, who has been covering sales for almost a decade, and her team of deals editors, we found these discounts from brands we trust. We only recommend products we have vetted and would buy ourselves.
