The January sales mark one of the best times to save on mattresses, as well as clothing, air fryers, dehumidifiers and much more. The likes of Amazon, Argos and John Lewis are all hosting January sales, and sleep brands – including Emma, Simba, Eve and Nectar – are getting in on the action, too.

If you’re looking to save on a mattress, you’ve come to the right place, with huge offers on high-quality designs. As ever, our dedicated deal-hunting team has handpicked some of the best mattress deals available now.

Plus, once you’ve found the perfect one, and you want to add the finishing touches, be sure to consult our guide to the best mattress toppers, as well as our review of the best linen bedding sets.

So, if you want to treat yourself and you’re looking for a cracking deal, we’ve scoured all the best mattress websites, so you don’t have to.

With this model securing a spot in our round-up of the best mattresses, our tester said they were “thoroughly impressed” with Simba’s hybrid design. Right now, you can save 55 per cent on the top-rated design in Simba’s sale. “A layer of memory foam moulds to your body, gently cradling you, while a layer of springs gives more considered support, which saw us wake without any aches or pains,” our tester said. An ideal choice year-round, there’s a layer of wool under the surface of the mattress, which has natural temperature-regulating and hypoallergenic properties, meaning our tester didn’t overheat. They added that, with its seven-layer design, it’s one of the more luxurious mattresses you can buy – meaning you don’t want to miss out while it’s on sale. The discount is applied automatically at the checkout, and you’ll also get a free mattress protector.

We’re big fans of the Tempur sensation elite mattress here at IndyBest, with one of our testers writing up an in-depth rave review of this exact model. “Tempur mattresses are quite the investment but the materials and technology they bring is second to none,” our reviewer shared. “The Tempur sensation mattress is great for anyone looking for a firm mattress, that has enough give to be comfortable for those who might normally go for softer mattresses,” and a saving of more than £500 is sure to make it sweeter.

This model made it into our round-up of the best mattresses. Our tester referred to it as a “true Goldilocks choice – not too firm, not too soft”.

If it’s a hybrid mattress you’re looking for, this Eve Sleep option has seen an impressive saving, and its sister model, the Eve Sleep premium mattress, was named best soft mattress in our guide to the best options to buy. Strips are cut out of the “harder foam to allow more give around the hips and shoulders, so you don’t get pressure pains when you sleep on it”, our writer said, noting it’s ideal for all types of sleepers. Coming in at £500, this is a great, relatively cheap choice.

Now with a saving of 60 per cent, this memory foam mattress is an IndyBest favourite, having been rated four out of five stars by our tester.

Taking the top spot in our round-up of the best mattresses, you can save close to £1,000 on this Hypnos wool design right now. “Holy comfort levels, this Hypnos mattress is incredible. The edge-to-edge support is second to none, and the medium tension provides fantastic support,” our tester said. Praising how supportive it is, the pocket-sprung system and eight layers of traceable British wool that regulate body temperature, it will make you look forward to bed time.

In our previous guide to the best mattresses, our writer described this one as “combining the brand’s legendary foams with a base layer of springs, you get instant sumptuousness, from the moulding of the four foam layers around your body, coupled with added bounce and airflow, thanks to the pocket coil springs.”

The writer was impressed before she’d even got it out of its vacuum pack: “How can those springs be so compressible? Nearly five years of research, is the answer from Casper. But that was nothing compared to our excitement over the immediate comfort.” With £250 off and such a rave review, this really is a no-brainer.

This one came out top in our Emma vs Simba hybrid mattress review, thanks to being the perfect match for “front or side sleepers (which, let’s face it, make up the majority of sleepers).” Its temperature regulation also got a special mention, with our writer noting that, even in summer, “you’ll find this keeps sweat at bay, thanks to pretty much every layer having been designed to promote airflow and cooling – something you won’t find in mattresses made purely of foam.”
