Why is this a good deal?

As far as memory foam mattresses go, this is one of the most affordable you'll find — especially given the quality. The price has dropped from $329 to $229 for a limited time, making this one of the best mattress deals we've seen this year.

Why do I need this?

This Zinus mattress has a lot more to offer than its price might suggest. It has three foam layers that are designed to cradle and support your body, helping relieve pressure points for better sleep. It also has a breathable, soft knit cover and is infused with green tea to keep the mattress feeling clean and fresh.

Choose from eight sizes ranging from narrow twin to California king. All are delivered in a box, so you don't have to worry about struggling to get a bulky mattress through your door or up the stairs. Just roll it out of the box and onto your bed frame, then give it 24 to 72 hours to fully expand. According to the brand, memory foam will expand faster in a warmer room, so keep that in mind.

What reviewers say

Shoppers love this 10-inch-thick mattress, which has racked up over 6,000 five-star ratings. Some, like this fan, even compare it with much pricier brands: "This mattress was more than I could have asked for. ... Very comparable to Tempur-Pedic (softer than a spring type but firm for memory foam standards) and much cheaper."

One reviewer said their "back pain is gone" after using this mattress. "This mattress is very comfortable and has relieved my lower back pain caused by my old mattress. It arrived before I expected and puffed up beautifully. After two days of letting it expand, we slept on it and it feels incredible. It molds to your body perfectly."

"I bought this mattress for my daughter who was moving from one place to another and loves the mattress," another fan said. "It comes very small, but once you unpackage it, it expands. it's incredibly comfortable! I bought one once before my son went for college, and we still have it in his old room."

Take it from this customer: "For 200 bucks it's absolutely worth it. Even with my 250-pound, 6-foot-7 husband and after eight months of sleeping on it every night, there's no indentation, which is really cool. If I can't afford a $1,000 mattress after this wears out, then I'll definitely get another just like this."

"A friend recommended the Zinus to us," a final reviewer said. "We are very happy with the comfort but undoubtedly sleep hotter on this mattress. I am finding myself sleeping in shorts and a T-shirt even during our cold Michigan nights. Just learning to adjust what we wear and what we cover with and it is working out. Really can't beat the price for a queen size mattress."
