I avoid spending large sums on my home. And yet, since my favorite activity is sleeping, and even just hanging out horizontally in my bed reading (aka streaming shows), I'm willing to throw down mad, mad cash toward this ongoing rehearsal for the day I will finally welcome the sweet, sweet release of death. So while the prospect of parting with over a thousand dollars on a mattress was daunting, I’m thinking of it as an investment in my mental and physical well. And you should, too, especially during Saatva's secret Black Friday sale *just* for PureWow readers. That's right, this cushy and springy Saatva Classic hybrid mattress (from $1,395, $995) is majorly discounted for Black Friday 2024, and PureWow readers (that's you!) have exclusive access to the biggest markdowns.

Specifically, you can save $400 on the Classic model (along with every other Saatva bed over $1,000) from now through Dec. 3. All you need to do is click through to the site using any link on this page—that's it! So, if I were you, I wouldn't hesitate to buy this baby for less, especially since this deal is pretty rare. Need convincing? Here’s what I learned when I tried the Saatva bed that has over 3,000 5-star reviews (and a 365-day money-back guarantee!).

In the old days, mattresses were mostly fabric-covered slabs of metal coil sold exclusively in showrooms, so that shoppers could lie down and test each mattress. That’s still a thing, however according to one bedding market analysis, in 2018, 45 percent of mattresses were purchased online. And more recently, there’s been an increase in sleep disturbances aka “covidsomnia”—as well as in increase in in-person mattress shopping complications— caused by COVID-19, which has only encouraged more online mattress sales.

Suffice it to say, consumers are getting more confident in ordering big-ticket items (think of the mattress as a sleep appliance, if you will) without testing first—especially since direct-to-consumer companies are offering increasingly generous return windows.

Yesteryear’s innerspring-only mattresses have been updated, with additional layers of foam and/or padding added in order to increase comfort and reduce the sound and feeling of rolling over and making the bed shake, shudder or creak. A hybrid mattress is also a great compromise between people who like or loathe memory foam, since hybrids offer some of the cushion without the deep sinking-in feeling of an all-foam mattress.

Since my first night on my Saatva, I’ve noticed I regularly dream more, which leads me to believe I’m sinking faster and longer into what neuroscience says is the recuperative REM dream state. (Previously, this only happened when I forgot to take my anti-anxiety medication for a couple of nights.) I wake up feeling more refreshed, and frankly, I drift off to sleep faster, since I’m not tossing and turning to feel comfortable.

Oh, and the Saatva special touch, to me, was that after I ordered the mattress online, it didn’t come rolled up in a box. It was delivered by a *two-person* team that not only set it right atop my frame, but they also removed and discarded my old mattress free of charge. And there was no chemical smell that needed off-gassing, so I felt safe to make the bed right away, no 12 hours of open bedroom windows necessary. There'll be no need to use that year-long guarantee offer—I’m holding on to my Saatva for good.
