Memorial Day sales have almost finished — but these 3 mattresses are an excellent value all year round

Tom's Guide30-05-2025

The Memorial Day sales are all but over. If you missed out, there are still some great evergreen deals available to help you save on a new mattress any time of year. That includes a new favorite of ours: the Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid Mattress, now 25% off at Brooklyn Bedding. At $999 for a queen-size after discount, that's an excellent price on a specialist cooling bed.
While the savings available now aren't quite as deep as many of the Memorial Day deals we saw, now's still a good time to buy because mattress prices are expected to increase due to tariffs. While the prospect of that seems a little less clear right now, it's still worth bearing in mind if you're planning to shop for one of the best mattresses.
You don't have to wait for Labor Day or Black Friday for your next chance to save on a new bed. Here are three outstanding mattress sales that are worth checking out after Memorial Day...
1. DreamCloud Classic Hybrid Mattress: queen was $1,531 now $649 at DreamcloudThe DreamCloud Classic Hybrid is an excellent choice if you're looking for a luxurious mattress at a reasonable price. This is the DreamCloud mattress sale pricing we see for most of the year, but as the best hybrid mattress in terms of value, it's well worth your attention. Our DreamCloud Hybrid Mattress review spells out exactly what's so good about it, including excellent support and pressure relief that makes it a fine choice for side and back sleepers, plus great motion isolation and breathability. You'll get free delivery, a one-year trial, and lifetime warranty.
Our review: ★★★★1/2User score: ★★★★1/2 (9,100+ reviews)
2. Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress: queen was $1,598 now $649 at NectarIf you want an all-foam mattress it's hard to go wrong with the Nectar Classic. We rate it as the best memory foam mattress for combi sleepers, and in our Nectar Classic Memory Foam Mattress review, we found it to be well cushioned without lacking support, with great motion isolation. (Although if you're a fan of memory foam 'hu,g' you might find it a little unyielding.) As with the DreamCloud, the current sale price is one you'll see for most of the year, but nevertheless it represents fantastic value for this well-made mattress with lots of pressure relief, and it comes with a 365-night trial, free delivery, and a lifetime warranty.
Our review: ★★★★1/2User score: ★★★★1/2 (50,000+ reviews)
3. CopperFlex Pro Hybrid Mattress: queen was $1,332 now $999 at Brooklyn BeddingYou might have seen quite a few mentions of the CopperFlex Pro Hybrid on Tom's Guide recently, and with good reason. This relatively new addition to the Brooklyn Bedding range is a winner if you want a luxurious mattress that's comfortable for all sleep positions and delivers impressive cooling. In fact, it's already made our best cooling mattresses guide. In our Brooklyn Bedding CopperFlex Pro Hybrid Mattress review, we praised its exceptional temperature regulation, pressure relief, and affordable price. It was slightly cheaper on Memorial Day itself, but right now there's 25% off, and at $999 for a queen size, this one's still a good buy. You'll get a 120-night trial, free shipping, and a lifetime warranty.

How Senate Republicans want to change the tax breaks in Trump's big bill

WASHINGTON — House and Senate Republicans are taking slightly different approaches when it comes to the tax cuts that lawmakers are looking to include in their massive tax and spending cuts bill. Republicans in the two chambers don't agree on the size of a deduction for state and local taxes. And they are at odds on such things as allowing people to use their health savings accounts to help pay for their gym membership, or whether electric vehicle and hybrid owners should have to pay an annual fee. The House passed its version shortly before Memorial Day. Now the Senate is looking to pass its version. While the two bills are similar on the major tax provisions, how they work out their differences in the coming weeks will determine how quickly they can get a final product over the finish line. President Donald Trump is pushing to have the legislation on his desk by July 4th. Here's a look at some of the key differences between the two bills: The child tax credit currently stands at $2,000 per child. The House bill temporarily boosts the child tax credit to $2,500 for the 2025 through 2028 tax years, roughly the length of President Donald Trump's second term. It also indexes the credit amount for inflation beginning in 2027. The Senate bill provides a smaller, initial bump-up to $2,200, but the bump is permanent, with the credit amount indexed for inflation beginning next year. Trump promised on the campaign trail that he would seek to end income taxes on tips, overtime and Social Security benefits. Also, he would give car buyers a new tax break by allowing them to deduct the interest paid on auto loans. The House and Senate bills incorporate those promises with temporary deductions lasting from the 2025 through 2028 tax years, but with some differences. The House bill creates a deduction on tips for those working in jobs that have customarily received tips. The House also provides for a deduction for overtime that's equal to the amount of OT a worker has earned. The Senate bill comes with more restrictions. The deduction for tips is limited to $25,000 per taxpayer and the deduction for overtime is limited to $12,500 per taxpayer. The House and Senate bills both provide a deduction of up to $10,000 for interest paid on loans for vehicles made in the United States. And on Social Security, the bills don't directly touch the program. Instead, they grant a larger tax deduction for Americans age 65 and older. The House sets the deduction at $4,000. The Senate sets it at $6,000. Both chambers include income limits over which the new deductions begin to phase out. The caps on state and local tax deductions, known in Washington as the SALT cap, now stand at $10,000. The House bill, in a bid to win over Republicans from New York, California and New Jersey, lifts the cap to $40,000 per household with incomes of less than $500,000. The credit phases down for households earning more than $500,000. The Senate bill keeps the cap at $10,000. That's a non-starter in the House, but Republicans in the two chambers will look to negotiate a final number over the coming weeks that both sides can accept. The House bill prohibits states from establishing new provider taxes or increasing existing taxes. These are taxes that Medicaid providers, such as hospitals, pay to help states finance their share of Medicaid costs. In turn, the taxes allow states to receive increased federal matching funds while generally holding providers harmless through higher reimbursements that offset the taxes paid. Such taxes now are effectively capped at 6%. The Senate looks to gradually lower that threshold for states that have expanded their Medicaid populations under the Affordable Care Act, or 'Obamacare,' until it reaches 3.5% in 2031, with exceptions for nursing homes and intermediate care facilities. Industry groups have warned that limiting the ability of states to tax providers may lead to some states making significant cuts to their Medicaid programs as they make up for the lost revenue in other ways. The Medicaid provision could be a flashpoint in the coming House and Senate negotiations. Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., was highly critical of the proposed Senate changes. 'This needs a lot of work. It's really concerning and I'm really surprised by it,' he said. 'Rural hospitals are going to be in bad shape.' The House bill would allow companies for five years to fully deduct equipment purchases and domestic research and development expenses. The Senate bill includes no sunset, making the tax breaks permanent, which was a key priority of powerful trade groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Republicans in both chambers are looking to scale back the clean energy tax credits enacted through then-President Joe Biden's climate law. It aimed to boost the nation's transition away from planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions toward renewable energy such as wind and solar power. Under the Senate bill, the tax credits for clean energy and home energy efficiency would still be phased out, but less quickly than under the House bill. Still, advocacy groups fear that the final measure will threaten hundreds of thousands of jobs and drive up household energy costs. The House bill would allow millions of Americans to use their health savings accounts to pay for gym memberships, with a cap of $500 for single taxpayers and $1,000 for joint filers. The Senate bill doesn't include such a provision. The House reinstates a charitable deduction for non-itemizers of $150 per taxpayer. The Senate bill increases that deduction for donations to $1,000 per taxpayer. Republicans in the House bill included a new annual fee of $250 for EV owners and $100 for hybrid owners that would be collected by state motor vehicle departments. The Senate bill excludes the proposed fees.
