Easter is a traditional time for mattress sales to crop up, but don't panic if you're not ready to buy just yet. We've been tracking mattress sales for a few years, and we've spotted you'll tend to see a flurry of special offers and discounts as we approach key sales periods - such as Easter, bank holidays, Black Friday and offers in the January sales.

We test mattresses for front, back and side sleepers, and we reveal how breathable, warm or cool a mattress is. Plus, we put them through tough durability tests, simulating 10 years of use, to find out whether they'll maintain their support for years to come.
That's why it's always worth reading our mattress reviews and comparing test results to make sure you invest wisely.
