Leesa
Leesa’s Early Access Memorial Day Sale is code-free, with 30 percent off certain mattresses on its site, plus a free “sleep bundle” that includes two pillows and a microfiber sheet set. Our favorites from Leesa are its cooling mattresses, specifically the Leesa Sapira Chill and the Leesa Legend Chill Hybrid. You can score both during the early sale, with the discount shown based on the price we usually see.
Essentia
Canadian mattress brand Essentia is throwing its name into the Memorial Day mattress sales hat, with 25 percent off sitewide and a free gift with purchase. You’ll see the discount applied once you add the mattress to your cart. The brand’s specialty is organic latex mattresses, and we’ve noted that Tatami organic mattresses are on our radar since they give off good pressure relief for those battling with back pain on the reg.
Plank
Just when firm mattresses couldn’t get more firm, Plank mattress said, “Hold my box.” This is a dual-sided mattress with two firmness levels—”firm” and “firmest”—that are ideal for spinal alignment and firm mattress lovers. WIRED reviewer Adrienne So describes hers as sleeping on a wooden floor, in the best kind of way. Use code MEMORIAL30 for 30 percent off the entire site.
Bedgear
Kick into gear for sleep with Bedgear, thanks to the Memorial Day Sale that will get you between $50 and $300 off select mattress models, no code required. Bedgear makes both our favorite cooling mattress—WIRED reviewer Molly Higgins says the H Performance series hit the mark for support and pressure relief, but especially for cooling thanks to its cooling cover—and our favorite cheap mattress, both of which are included in the sale.

Cozy Earth
If you’re interested in trying bamboo sheets, our favorite splurge set is on sale right now. Cozy Earth is known for its decadently soft bamboo sheet set, and while there’s a Memorial Day sale already live that gives you a discount for buying three items or more, you can use our code WIRED to get 35 percent off anything on Cozy Earth’s site. We’ve tested tons of Cozy Earth items, from bamboo sheets and comforters to its towels and even socks, and have been impressed at every turn with how soft the items are.
Rough Linen
Linen bedsheets can be a hard sell for some because of the rougher texture, and the name Rough Linen might intimidate you. But linen sheets are not only some of the most breathable sheets you can sleep on (perfect for summer!), they last longer, making for a great investment. They’ll soften up over time, too. Our favorite heavyweight linen comes from Rough Linen, and we’re testing the brand’s smoother linen set next. Score both sheet sets for about 10 percent off right now.
Tuft & Needle
Tuft & Needle makes both bedding and mattresses, including the newest addition to our linen sheets guide. The bedding company’s linen-cotton blend sheets are softer than your usual linen (great for anyone who wants to dip their toes into linen!) but still pack breathability and structure. Tuft & Needle has 40 percent off select bedding right now, plus 20 percent off mattresses, and that sale includes this comfy set. Even my husband, a certified linen hater, said he liked sleeping on these sheets. They’ve also got percale sheets that use Supima cotton, making those softer than your usual percale sheet.
The Citizenry
I’ve slept on every major sheet brand and every type of sheet, and the brand I recommend shopping the most is The Citizenry. This artisanal brand makes he best soft yet breathable percale sheets and the best linen sheets for the price, both of which are organic. You’ll even find The Citizenry’s sheets in the WIRED 101 that lists our 101 favorite gear ever. The sheets are already a great price for what you’re getting and aren’t often on sale, which makes the current Memorial Day Sale so exciting. Everything on the site is 20 percent off, no code required, including both sheet sets we can’t stop recommending.
Brooklinen
Brooklinen is a big favorite in the world of bedding, and the company makes a huge range of products. Sheets! Comforters! Pillows! Towels! Bathrobes! You name it, Brooklinen probably has it, and it’s all on sale for 25 percent off right now for Brooklinen’s Memorial Day Sale. We’re especially big fans of the down comforter and down pillow, but Brooklinen’s super crisp organic percale sheets is one of our favorite sets of organic bedding.
Slumber Cloud
If you’re struggling to sleep as the heat only picks up, Slumber Cloud makes our favorite cooling sheets that use a combination of Tencel lyocell and the brand’s own patented fibers to help you stay cool all night long. I’m usually not a big fan of sheets with special technology and fibers in them, but these sheets aren’t like anything else I’ve tried. Not only are they perfect for summer, but Slumber Cloud is running a 30 percent off Memorial Day Sale on its site, so you can get them for much cheaper than usual. The brand’s cooling pillows are on sale, too, and I found the UltraCool both nice and chilly and pretty supportive (and you get a pack of two!)
