How to choose the best Black Friday deals on mattresses

It's easy to get swept up in the Black Friday mattresses excitement, but a mattress is a long-term investment, and you should always plan and bookmark your favourites ahead of time.

Here are some tips to making sure you're getting the right mattress for your needs:

Black Friday how to make a mattress choice

Let's look at some of these in a bit more detail.

Focus on quality mattresses

The quality of your mattress does matter, and you should always opt for the highest quality mattress you can afford. 👍

There are two ways to determine mattress quality:

  • Spring mattresses: The higher the spring count of your mattress, the higher the quality and the more likely it is to last. Opt for at least 350 springs for the smallest mattress size.
  • Foam mattresses: Mattresses with higher foam densities will support you better and last much longer.

This infographic on foam densities and corresponding quality and lifespan may help:

The filling material you choose doesn't necessarily affect quality; rather, you should choose a material that suits your requirements.

Our guides on the best memory foam, hybrid, open coil spring, pocket sprung, latex, and gel foam mattresses can assist you in choosing the right mattress material.

Find the right degree of firmness

Mattresses come in different degrees of firmness, and while there's no right or wrong choice here, the below may help guide you:

  • Lighter-weight people and side sleepers often prefer softer mattresses.
  • Average-weight people and combination sleepers do well on medium-firm mattresses.
  • Heavier-weight people, pure back sleepers, and stomach sleepers often prefer firmer mattresses.

But as long as you're well-supported, any degree of firmness could theoretically work.

Our guide on choosing the right degree of firmness can help you further.

Select the right mattress size

Mattresses are available in dozens of different sizes, and you'll get Black Friday mattress deals on most of them.

  • Small single Black Friday deals: 75 x 190 cm (2'6" x 6'3")
  • Single mattress Black Friday deals: 90 x 190 cm (3' x 6'3")
  • Small double Black Friday deals: 120 x 190 cm (4' x 6'3")
  • Double mattress Black Friday deals: 135 x 190 cm (4'6" x 6'3")
  • King-size mattress Black Friday deals: 150 x 200 cm (5' x 6'6")
  • Super-king mattress Black Friday deals: 180 x 200 cm (6' x 6'6")

You should always choose a mattress size that best fits your bed frame, room size, and budget, but our guide on mattress sizes can also assist you further. 🛌

  • What is Black Friday?

    Black Friday originated in the USA as the start of the Christmas shopping season. 

    It falls on the Friday after Thanksgiving, which is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November every year.

    Thanksgiving [1] began as a holiday of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and the preceding year. It is still one of the most firmly upheld traditions of American culture.

    Since most Americans used this Friday to start their Christmas shopping, Black Friday generated massive retail sales.

    Many stores started opening up early in the morning on Black Friday and offered special deals, and so Black Friday as we know it today was born.

    But even though Black Friday was originally an American shopping experience, the rest of the world has begun to follow these traditions. 🌎

    This is no different in the UK, where many retailers have hopped on the Black Friday bandwagon, with sales sometimes running for an entire week - or longer.

  • Why is it called Black Friday?

    Since this day marked the start of the Christmas shopping season, businesses were usually able to turn a profit. 

    This means they could go from being 'in the red' (that is, losing money) to turning a profit, referred to as 'going into the black'.

    It is commonly believed that this is the root of the term Black Friday.

    But, this isn't entirely true.

    It actually dates back to police officers in 1960s Philadelphia [2], who used the term to describe the chaos caused by large crowds coming into the city to start their Christmas shopping. 

  • What is Cyber Monday?

    With the advent of online shopping came the introduction of Cyber Monday [3]. 👩‍💻

    This is the Monday immediately following the Thanksgiving weekend.

    It celebrates Black Friday sales in the online sphere, giving consumers the chance to do all of their shopping without the inconvenience of having to leave their houses. 

    Of course, this is mostly outdated as Black Friday sales now generally occur online and in stores, and even last for much longer than just a few days.

    Many sales actually run over the whole Black Friday weekend, which starts on Black Friday and runs through till Cyber Monday. 🤩

    But many online retailers have also started offering Black Friday month sales throughout the whole of November.

  • Where can you find the best Black Friday deals?

    Black Friday and Cyber Monday are celebrated both online and in brick-and-mortar retailers.

    We'd always recommend purchasing online - it's easier, there's greater variety, and you'll avoid the in-store Black Friday mayhem.

    Would you want to be stuck in this? 👇

    Probably not.

    We firmly believe that purchasing mattresses online is the way to go.

    • You can purchase from the comfort of your couch. 
    • There's a greater variety of products online.
    • You can benefit from risk-free trial periods, free delivery, and free returns.
    • You'll receive much better value for money.

    These are only some of the benefits of purchasing online.

    Important: Make sure that your Black Friday discounts are applied at checkout. Systems fail, especially during busy times, so make sure your coupon codes work to get the deal you deserve.

    You may be worried about purchasing a mattress you've never felt before. 🤔

    But it's hard to make up your mind by simply lying on a mattress for a few minutes in-store - something you'll undoubtedly not have the luxury of doing if you're grabbing a Black Friday mattress deal.

    With online purchases, you can benefit from risk-free trial periods, giving you the chance to test the mattress in your own home and simply send it back for a full refund if you're not 100% satisfied.

    Regardless of whether you want free pillows, divan bases, or toppers with excellent breathability, you're likely to find what you're looking for. 🤞
