This weekend is the perfect time to upgrade your mattress. There are plenty of fall discounts rolling in, and as a deals writer, I’ve found some incredible sales worth taking advantage of. My favorite so far? A queen Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam mattress for just $198 at Amazon.

Just because you’re on a budget, doesn’t mean you can’t get one of the best mattresses of the year. I’ve rounded up the three best queen memory foam mattresses under $500 available this weekend, and we’ve slept on and reviewed them all.
Each suits a specific style, so you’re bound to find one that works for you. So now you don’t need to wait until the Black Friday mattress sales to refresh your bedroom for fall.

Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress: queen was $233.99 now $198 at Amazon
Right now, you can save $25 on one of our favorite memory foam mattresses and get a queen for just $198, that’s just $20 away from the lowest price we’ve seen. We tested this mattress and found that it was better suited to side sleepers. This is because the softer foam cushions the shoulders and hips to relieve pressure buildup, preventing aches and pains. In our Zinus Green Tea Memory Foam Mattress review, we gave this mattress 3.5 out of five stars, which is a good rating for a budget mattress. Its only downfall is that it’s too soft for stomach sleepers, and we did find that it trapped heat, which could be troublesome for hot sleepers.
Our score: ★★★½
User score: ★★★★½(79,393 reviews)

EGOHOME Black 12″ Memory Foam Mattress: queen was $449 now $299.99 at EGOHOME
We rated this mattress with four out of five stars in our EGOHOME Memory Foam Mattress review. After sleeping on this mattress for three weeks, we found that this budget-friendly option was comfortable for most sleep positions. It struck a good balance between giving sleepers the hugging feeling that memory foam is known for and offering enough support for back and stomach sleepers. Right now, you can save over $140 on the queen size and purchase it for just $299.99.
Our score:★★★★
User score: ★★★★★ (134 reviews)

Siena Signature Memory Foam Mattress: queen $359 at Siena
In our Siena Memory Foam mattress review, we found that this mattress offered a lot of bang for its buck. Firstly, it comes with five different layers, while most in this price point have two. Secondly, hot sleepers will be pleasantly surprised at how cool this mattress sleeps. Our tester said they didn’t overheat once, even though they tested this mattress in the summer. We should mention that this mattress is pretty firm for a memory foam bed. We’d recommend shopping the other two deals on this list for something softer. A queen Siena Signature is just $359, and while that’s not a particularly impressive deal (we see it year round) it’s still fantastic value. In fact, we rated it as the best cheap mattress of the year.
Our score:★★★★
User score: ★★★★½ (3,189 reviews)
