5 reasons you SHOULDN'T buy a mattress on Amazon in the Prime Day sales

It's worth browsing Amazon Prime Day deals if you're looking for a cheap TV, Amazon-branded hardware, or small kitchen appliances – but what about mattresses? Based on our experience covering Prime Day event over the last eight years, we expect Amazon offer some further discounts on already-budget mattresses. That's great news if you're looking to snag one of the best under $400 Amazon mattresses for an even lower price. 

But if it's a good quality mid-range or luxury mattress you're after, you won't find anything worthwhile among Amazon's mattress sales. In fact, even though brands like Nectar do have an Amazon store, we advise against purchasing such items from Amazon. Mattress manufacturers typically match or even undercut Amazon's sale prices – but even if they don't, buying straight from the source will ensure you're eligible for the warranty and risk-free trial period associated with your mattress, among other benefits.
