Get top-rated mattresses for less from Simba, Nectar, Panda and more - (The Independent)

A comfortable and supportive mattress is essential for a good night’s rest, allowing you to wake up recharged and refreshed for the day ahead. Thankfully, you don’t have to wait until Black Friday to find a deal on the right one for you.

With the best Black Friday mattress deals arriving early, offers from IndyBest-approved brands (including Simba, Eve Sleep, Dusk, Hypnos and more) will see you through the night for less.

We spend a third of our lives in bed, so plumping for the right mattress is worth it to help support your body and get enough quality sleep. They can be pricey, but a well-made mattress should last for years, and that’s why our Black Friday guide is indispensable, helping you save hundreds of pounds.

As The Independent’s sleep expert, I’ve slept on dozens of mattresses over the years — including memory foam, hybrid and pocket-sprung designs — so I know which brands to trust. With my daughter’s help, I’ve even tested cot mattresses. Below, you’ll find my pick of the best early Black Friday mattress deals, and I’ll be updating this article with all the latest offers throughout the sale.

Best early Black Friday mattress deals to shop now

As someone who’s tested more mattresses and pillows than I can count, I can confidently say this is the time of year to invest in better sleep with rare opportunities to save big – even on top-tier brands that rarely budge. Simba, Nectar, and Panda are all known for joining in, with impressive discounts across their bestselling mattresses, cosy duvets, and memory-foam pillows. In my opinion, free bedding bundles often offer the best value, especially when they include extras like mattress protectors or toppers.

Simba hybrid luxe mattress, double: Was £1,699, now £1,259.30, Simbasleep.co.uk

(Simba)

Simba’s hybrid luxe was my best mattress of 2025, and it’s now on sale with more than £500 off. It improved my sleep significantly and kept me cool during the summer months but warm in the winter. As I wrote in my review, I found that it offered support for my joints and helped me lie straight. It also offers the ideal balance between a firm and medium sleeping base.

Simba earth apex mattress: Was £1,999.99, now £1,499.25, Simbasleep.com

(Simba)

This incredible deal from Simba saves over £400 on Simba's silk-topped mattress. Balancing a triple-spring layer with temperature-regulating wool, this mattress certainly impressed me when I put it to the test. After sleeping on it for four months, I wrote in my guide to the best mattresses that it's one of the most comfortable I have ever tested.

Nectar premier hybrid mattress: Was £749, now £674, Nectarsleep.co.uk

(Nectar)

Nectar has reduced all of its hybrid mattresses by 10 per cent for Black Friday. When I tested the plush sleep surface in my guide to the best mattresses, I found – after eight months of sound sleeping – that my pressure points were taken care of, while my spine remained perfectly aligned. Plus, when guests stayed in the bed, they commented on how comfortable it was.

Panda hybrid bamboo mattress pro, double: Was £950, now £665, Pandalondon.com

(Amazon)

Panda’s Black Friday sale has launched with up to 30 per cent off sleep essentials – including the tried and tested hybrid bamboo mattress pro, which landed a spot in our guide to the best mattresses. It’s on the firmer side of medium, and when lying down, I noticed a very slight sinking-in feeling, with a subtle bounce, owing to a layer of springs”, noted assistant IndyBest editor, Sarah Jones. It provides “excellent comfort and support, particularly for back sleepers”, but the brand also says the design means it can accommodate all sleeping positions

Hypnos ortho support 7, double: Was £1,299, now £1,079, Mynextmattress.co.uk

(Hypnos)

If you’re looking to invest in a luxury mattress, now could be the time to do so, as you can save £220 on this one at My Next Mattress. Chosen as the best firm option in my guide to the best mattresses, I found it to be breathable and supportive, meaning it could help alleviate any ongoing aches and pains. As part of this deal, you’ll also get a pair of pillows (worth £39) and a mattress protector (worth £25) thrown in at no extra cost.

Simba hybrid mattress, double: Was £799, now £599.25, Simbasleep.com

(Simba)

Simba’s hybrid mattress comes IndyBest-approved and was named the best for edge-to-edge support. In my review, I praised it for its six layers of pure comfort, with a middle layer that provides just the right amount of bounce, and a top layer that’s soft, breathable and hypoallergenic. Plus, its breathable cover and foam help keep you cool as you slumber. Right now, you can rest in comfort knowing you’ve saved nearly £200 off the retail price of this popular mattress.

Woolroom junior mattress: Was £509, now £356.30, Thewoolroom.com

(Woolroom)

This Woolroom buy was dubbed the best wool design in our guide to the best kids’ mattresses. “Packed with natural fibres, and with no chemicals used in production, this mattress is hard to beat when it comes to being free of anything too processed,” said our reviewer. “Why wool? Well, it’s naturally temperature-regulating, deters dust mites and it’s antibacterial,” they added. The mattress is designed with youngsters aged up to 12 years in mind, and our expert said she was left “hugely impressed" after testing it. Now, the mattress is reduced by 30 per cent in the run-up to Black Friday.

Dusk memory foam 2,000 pocket sprung hybrid mattress, double: Was £279, now £229, Dusk.com

(Dusk)

Dubbed the best budget mattress in my roundup of top options, this purchase from Dusk is even cheaper thanks to an early Black Friday deal. When you use the code “BF25” at checkout, you’ll get 25 per cent off, which brings down the price of a double mattress to £229. I put the design to the test for over a year for my Dusk memory foam mattress review, and I was surprised by how comfortable it remained. The edge support is fantastic, and it has great support on pressure points, so it’s a good choice for side sleepers.

Origin hybrid pro, double: Was £883, now £625, Originmattress.co.uk

(Origin)

When I reviewed the Origin hybrid pro, I found that the firm zoned support actually improved my partner’s snoring – he also woke up without his usual shoulder aches. The motion isolation was also impressive – I didn’t notice my partner as he shuffled around – and the pressure relief felt exactly right.

Whether sleeping on my back or side, the mattress supported me in all the right places and helped gently ease tension at my hips and shoulders over several nights. It’s ideal for those seeking real relief from pressure points, and it's a great option for gaining optimal support without compromising on cosiness. Right now, there's a modest discount on the mattress.

Hypnos wool origins 6 mattress: Was £1,799, now £1,579, www.mynextmattress.co.uk

(My Next Mattress)

IndyBest tester Zoë Phillimore reviewed the Hypnos wool origins 6 mattress and gave it high praise, claiming it was among the best she’s tried. “The support on the origins 6 was very comprehensive. I feel supported and it’s easy to turn over without feeling like I’m being sucked into the middle of the mattress,” she wrote.

It comes in medium and firm, with both featuring a new cover fabric that is tactile and silky smooth while delivering excellent temperature regulation. Right now, you can save a cool £220 off the standard price of this double mattress, reduced from £1,779 to £1,579.

When is Black Friday 2025?

Black Friday 2025 officially kicks off on 28 November and runs through to Cyber Monday (1 December). However, the deals start to drop earlier and earlier every year, with many retailers already launching their offers ahead of the official sales weekend at the end of the month.

I’ll be updating this page regularly in the lead-up to the big event, so you can stay on top of the best early Black Friday mattress deals as soon as they go live.

What is Black Friday?

Black Friday is the biggest sales event of the year, taking place on the fourth Friday of November – the day after Thanksgiving in the US. It’s widely seen as the best time to bag a bargain before Christmas, with deals usually running through the weekend and wrapping up on Cyber Monday.

Alongside major discounts on popular products such as the Apple AirPods Pro 2 and Meta Quest 3, it's also one of the best times to bag big savings on mattresses.
