While you may be hesitant to make such a large purchase through Amazon, our sleep editors' advice is to stick with reputable brands sold through the e-tailer, and read the fine print to ensure that benefits like brand-specific trial periods and warranties still apply. It's also worth investigating competitor sales, like from Nectar and DreamCloud, that are running concurrently to Amazon's; we're calling out as many of these that are relevant in our coverage below so you can see for yourself and get the best price and shopping experience possible. Below, the best Prime Day mattress deals you can start shopping now.

Amazon Helix Midnight Luxe Mattress (Queen)
Our top pick for the best mattress of 2025 is available on Amazon, and it's on sale for Prime Day. That said, if you're nervous about purchasing a mattress on Amazon, you can alternatively shop on the Helix site and use code FORBES27 at checkout for 27% off. This hybrid bed features a medium firmness that hits the sweet spot for most sleepers, plus cooling technology to help prevent night sweats. We recommend this bed for a wide variety of people: side, back or combination sleepers, individuals under 250 pounds and those who sleep with a partner (though it's great for solo sleepers, too).
If you're a hot sleeper and need a moderate level of support from both springs and memory foam, you may find the Sapira from Forbes Vetted editor–favorite brand, Leesa, to your liking. You'll also find it discounted by $300 this Prime Day. This mattress is 11 inches thick and features cooling foams atop pocketed springs that naturally let air flow through.
More Information: If you're looking for something slightly thicker and more temperature-regulating, the Standard Sapira's slightly plusher sibling and the best hybrid mattress we've tested, the Leesa Sapira Chill, is available on both Amazon (though not on sale) as well as the brand's website.
Although the Casper Original memory foam mattress has been replaced by the newer Casper One on the brand's website, it remains available on Amazon—and we've spent a lot of time with it in order to write up our full review. The verdict? It's a worthy contender for those in who want a memory foam mattress at a fair price. It's also 15% off this Prime Day.
We spent time with the Purple Original mattress to write an extensive review of it, and found this model to be a great option for those who sleep hotter, as well as combination sleepers who switch postures at night. Like all beds from this brand, the Purple Original uses a proprietary GelFlex Grid technology to cradle the body and relieve pressure. You can get $500 off this mattress for Prime Day.
This memory foam mattress from Amazon Basics typically comes at a reasonable price, but for Prime Day, it's discounted even further—26% off. It has an average score of 4.4 out of 5 stars after over 6,600 customer ratings, with several users praising its high quality and medium firm feel. We've researched and evaluated mattresses from the Amazon Basics line to put together our roundup of the best beds on Amazon, and they've proven to hold up well considering their very-low price.
Sealy is a well-known name in mattresses, and we've tested a number of the brand's beds (both from the original brand and its Cocoon collection) for on our ongoing coverage. You can find a handful of Sealy beds on Amazon, including the Dreamlife, which is designed with a layer of cooling gel memory foam that contours to your body and relieves pressure. This bed offers a medium feel, making it a solid choice for back, side and combination sleepers.
We've evaluated beds from Zinus to determine our list of the best mattresses on Amazon, and found that the brand's extremely affordable prices belies their models' effectiveness. With a medium feel that's particularly supportive for side sleepers, the Zinus Cloud in particular includes four foam layers engineered to relieve pressure points. And at less than $300 during Prime Day, it's one of the best values you'll find for a quality memory foam mattress that's fiberglass-free and backed by third-party safety certifications like CertiPUR-US and Oeko-Tex 100.
The winner in our best mattresses on Amazon roundup, this ultra-affordable bed is ideal for a guest room or anyone on a budget. It features a medium-plush feel that's ideal for side sleepers, individuals under 250 pounds or anyone who likes extra cushioning. We appreciate that the foam is CertiPur-US certified, meaning it's made without chemicals and has low VOCs.
As Amazon hosts its Prime Day event this year, we're already seeing those savings extend out to other brands—who are hosting sales to compete with the retail giant's discounts. Here are some of our favorite mattress companies that are also offering deals if you shop directly through their sites.

A Look At The Fair Value Of Balchem Corporation (NASDAQ:BCPC)

The projected fair value for Balchem is US$164 based on 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity With US$165 share price, Balchem appears to be trading close to its estimated fair value Our fair value estimate is 17% lower than Balchem's analyst price target of US$197 Does the July share price for Balchem Corporation (NASDAQ:BCPC) reflect what it's really worth? Today, we will estimate the stock's intrinsic value by taking the forecast future cash flows of the company and discounting them back to today's value. This will be done using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. Don't get put off by the jargon, the math behind it is actually quite straightforward. We would caution that there are many ways of valuing a company and, like the DCF, each technique has advantages and disadvantages in certain scenarios. Anyone interested in learning a bit more about intrinsic value should have a read of the Simply Wall St analysis model. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. We are going to use a two-stage DCF model, which, as the name states, takes into account two stages of growth. The first stage is generally a higher growth period which levels off heading towards the terminal value, captured in the second 'steady growth' period. To start off with, we need to estimate the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years. Generally we assume that a dollar today is more valuable than a dollar in the future, so we discount the value of these future cash flows to their estimated value in today's dollars: 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 2035 Levered FCF ($, Millions) US$189.0m US$202.7m US$214.8m US$225.7m US$235.7m US$245.1m US$254.1m US$262.8m US$271.5m US$280.1m Growth Rate Estimate Source Analyst x2 Est @ 7.27% Est @ 5.97% Est @ 5.06% Est @ 4.42% Est @ 3.98% Est @ 3.67% Est @ 3.45% Est @ 3.30% Est @ 3.19% Present Value ($, Millions) Discounted @ 6.9% US$177 US$177 US$176 US$173 US$169 US$164 US$159 US$154 US$149 US$144 ("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = US$1.6b We now need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after this ten year period. For a number of reasons a very conservative growth rate is used that cannot exceed that of a country's GDP growth. In this case we have used the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield (2.9%) to estimate future growth. In the same way as with the 10-year 'growth' period, we discount future cash flows to today's value, using a cost of equity of 6.9%. Terminal Value (TV)= FCF2035 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = US$280m× (1 + 2.9%) ÷ (6.9%– 2.9%) = US$7.2b Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= US$7.2b÷ ( 1 + 6.9%)10= US$3.7b The total value is the sum of cash flows for the next ten years plus the discounted terminal value, which results in the Total Equity Value, which in this case is US$5.4b. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Compared to the current share price of US$165, the company appears around fair value at the time of writing. The assumptions in any calculation have a big impact on the valuation, so it is better to view this as a rough estimate, not precise down to the last cent. We would point out that the most important inputs to a discounted cash flow are the discount rate and of course the actual cash flows. If you don't agree with these result, have a go at the calculation yourself and play with the assumptions. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at Balchem as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 6.9%, which is based on a levered beta of 0.919. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business. Check out our latest analysis for Balchem Strength Earnings growth over the past year exceeded the industry. Debt is not viewed as a risk. Weakness Dividend is low compared to the top 25% of dividend payers in the Chemicals market. Expensive based on P/E ratio and estimated fair value. Opportunity Annual earnings are forecast to grow for the next 2 years. Threat Annual earnings are forecast to grow slower than the American market. Valuation is only one side of the coin in terms of building your investment thesis, and it ideally won't be the sole piece of analysis you scrutinize for a company. The DCF model is not a perfect stock valuation tool. Preferably you'd apply different cases and assumptions and see how they would impact the company's valuation. For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result.

4 Reasons People Are Using 401(k)s for Emergencies, According to Vanguard

Vanguard recently released its 2025 report on how America saves. It revealed that a record 4.8% of 401(k) holders took a hardship withdrawal in 2024, up from 1.7% in 2020. Be Aware: Check Out: So why are more Americans raiding their retirement accounts? The report listed the following reasons for hardship withdrawals. Over a third (35%) of account holders who took a hardship withdrawal listed avoiding foreclosure or eviction as their motivation. 'Traditionally, homeowners in financial distress might refinance or tap home equity to stay afloat,' said Josh Richner of FaithWorks Financial. 'But with mortgage rates hovering near 7%, refinance volume has dropped to its lowest level since the mid-1990s. That leaves many turning to the only sizable resource they can access: their retirement savings.' Read Next: At 30%, medical expenses made up the second most common driver of hardship withdrawals last year. It doesn't help that many Americans have little to no emergency savings. A study by GOBankingRates found that half of Americans have $500 or less in savings. Vanguard reported that 16% of hardship withdrawals went to cover a home repair or purchase. Brett Daniel, founder of Daniel Safe Money Retirement Solutions, cautioned homebuyers against raiding their retirement savings. 'While purchasing a home can make a great financial investment, using retirement savings for the down payment or home repairs is risky due to the fees involved on the amount withdrawn from your 401(k).' It also leaves you with less money in financial investments to compound throughout your career and pay for your retirement. Another 14% of hardship withdrawals went to covering tuition costs, and 5% were uncategorized. While some of those withdrawals helped the account holders themselves get degrees and improve their future earnings, some likely went to account holders' children. But most financial experts agree that's a dangerous path, as children have many options to fund their college degree, but retirees have just one: their savings. 'Parents looking to help with tuition should look at 529 college savings plans or Coverdell Education Savings Accounts, rather than draining their own retirement accounts,' Daniel said. Vanguard noted that it is now easier to request a hardship withdrawal, due to a 2019 budget act, which could account for some of the increase. Additionally, another recent law could also help explain the bump in hardship withdrawals from 401(k)s. The Secure 2.0 Act of 2022 required employers to automatically enroll new workers in 401(k) accounts, if available. That led to many lower-income workers having retirement accounts, and for some, it represents their only source of savings. Overall, Vanguard doesn't see much cause for alarm with the heightened hardship withdrawals. The report pointed to these legal changes as significant drivers, taking a sanguine stance on the 4.8% hardship withdrawal rate.
