The Casper Snow mattress is perfect for hot sleepers and it's currently 30% off — not even Black Friday gets better than this

Tom's Guide24-06-2025
Are you a side sleeper struggling to sleep through summer nights? The Casper Snow Cooling Hybrid mattress could be just the sleep solution you've been searching for. You can now save 30% on the Snow Hybrid at Casper, cutting a queen size to $1,745 (was $2,495).
Falling just short of our best cooling mattress of 2025 list, the revamped Casper Snow, which got a glow up in 2024, is an impressively capable temperature-regulating mattress. It's packed with innovative technology — including HeatDelete bands and Phase Change Material — to help you combat night sweats and hot flashes.
The Casper Snow isn't always included in monthly mattress sales and the current discount is the best we've seen on this upgraded model. Here's why cool shoppers in search of the best mattress won't want to snooze on this deal...
Casper Snow Cooling Hybrid Mattress: twin XL was $1,895 now $1,325 at CasperThe Casper Snow is an ideal mattress for side sleepers who overheat at night. It is medium-firm and comes with heaps of pressure relief and cooling technology. The Casper Snow mattress is lined with the brand's signature HeatDelete Bands: thin strips of material infused with thermal conducting graphite, which direct heat away from the sleeper. Meanwhile the cover is infused with Phase Change Material that pulls heat away from your body while you sleep, remaining cool to the touch. This Snow Technology promises 12+ hours of cooler sleep. Casper mattress sales don't run constantly like other retailers, but when the Snow is on sale, discounts tends to sit between 20% and 25%, with 30% off being reserved for major holidays. That said, last 4th July we saw just 15% off the Snow Hybrid. With Casper feeling more generous this year, now a great time to snap up a great deal on a mattress that will help you sleep peacefully through summer months. We don't expect to see this 30% off again at least until Labor Day in September, or even Black Friday.
Our review: ★★★★User score: ★★★★½ (740+ reviews)
The combination of pressure relieving foams and supportive coils is ideal for supporting side and back sleepers. There are three zones of responsive foams to keep your spine aligned and pressure points cradled.
Our tester for our Casper Snow mattress review (2023) found the older version of this mattress was a tad too firm for side sleeping. But reviewers of the updated mattress say "it's super comfy for us side-sleepers (or about any position)," providing "the perfect balance between support and softness." One even writes: "My back simply stopped aching. Thank you Casper."
Though lightweight side sleepers may prefer something softer, such as one of this year's best pillow-top mattresses, while stomach sleepers would be better off with something from our best firm mattress guide, we think the Casper Snow is perfect for average weight side and back sleepers who run hot at night.

How Warby Parker Has Kept the Price of Glasses at $95 for 15 Years

Many things have gotten pricier in the past 15 years. Not Warby Parker's WRBY -0.64%decrease; red down pointing triangle most affordable glasses, which have cost $95 since the brand's inception in 2010. Warby Parker's strategy breaks from other buzzy brands that adopted the eyewear company's model during the 2010s-era direct-to-consumer boom, like mattress maker Casper and Naadam, which sells cashmere sweaters. Marketing for Naadam's basic sweater once prominently featured its $75 price; now the same crew neck retails for $98. A twin mattress at Casper cost $500 in 2014 and now starts at $749.

DISA Technologies Closes Oversubscribed $30M Series A2 Round to Accelerate Mineral Processing & Uranium Remediation Solutions

Evok Innovations and Constellation Technology Ventures Lead Investment in Scalable Technology for Critical Mineral Liberation and Legacy Waste Cleanup CASPER, Wyo., Aug. 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- DISA Technologies Inc. (DISA), a company pioneering high-impact solutions for mineral recovery and uranium remediation, has closed its oversubscribed Series A2 financing round. DISA raised a total of $30 million in private capital, including $23 million in primary funding and $7 million in secondary to accommodate oversubscription and provide liquidity for early angel investors. The round was led by Evok Innovations with cornerstone strategic investment from Constellation Technology Ventures (CTV), the venture investing organization within Constellation, the nation's largest producer of reliable, emissions-free energy and participation from Valor Equity Partners, Veriten, and existing backers including Halliburton Labs. DISA's patented High-Pressure Slurry Ablation (HPSA) technology was developed to serve both modern mineral processing and environmental remediation needs—delivering a cleaner, faster and more efficient way to liberate valuable minerals. HPSA is now being scaled for deployment across two critical applications: improving grades and recoveries of critical minerals for mining operators, and cleaning up Abandoned Uranium Mine (AUM) waste by recycling uranium and vanadium while reducing environmental liability. "We're proud to have the support of such forward-thinking partners who share our vision: increasing the global production of critical minerals and converting toxic legacy waste into strategic assets that advance American sustainability, energy resilience, and national security," said Greyson Buckingham, DISA's CEO, President and Co-Founder. "This investment allows us to accelerate commercial deployment of HPSA units for both mining operators and uranium remediation stakeholders." "We're especially grateful to Evok for believing in DISA from the beginning, and to Constellation for their bold leadership in shaping America's energy future," Buckingham added. "We're also excited to welcome Veriten and Valor Equity Partners to the team, and deeply appreciate the continued support from Halliburton Labs and our other existing investors who have helped make this next chapter possible." CTV's investment highlights the strategic importance of DISA's accelerating uranium remediation work. Following a successful 2023 EPA Treatability Study, DISA signed an MOU with the Navajo Nation EPA to launch a Phase 2 commercial-scale demonstration project. In April 2025, DISA's application for an NRC Service Providers License (SPL) was accepted for technical review, with completion of the licensing action decision expected by September. Constellation's backing strengthens DISA's position as the nation's first licensed provider focused on AUM remediation. "At Constellation, we recognize that securing America's energy future starts with securing its fuel supply," said Bryan Hanson, Chief Generation Officer, Constellation. "DISA's innovative approach aligns with our goal to strengthen domestic energy resilience and deploy cutting-edge technologies that support clean, reliable energy." Evok Innovations and Valor Equity Partners bring deep strategic value to DISA—Evok through its focus on cutting-edge energy innovation, and Valor through its operational expertise with high-growth companies. Veriten adds industry insight and connectivity across the energy landscape, while Halliburton Labs continues to be a vital collaborator supporting founder-led innovation. "Valor Equity Partners is proud to invest in DISA, a company that embodies innovation and possesses significant growth potential. Our investment reflects our belief in the company's vision and leadership team, along with our focus on disruptive technologies that are making the world a better place. We are grateful for the opportunity to partner with DISA in this next phase of growth," said David Heskett, Operating Partner at Valor Equity Partners. "Halliburton Labs reaffirms its support of DISA through this strategic investment," said Andres Cabada, managing director at Halliburton Labs. "DISA's innovation in mineral processing and remediation creates meaningful value for resource owners and other stakeholders. We welcome the opportunity to collaborate as DISA advances its commercialization efforts and expands its operations. We look forward to their success". "Investing in DISA is an opportunity to catalyze groundbreaking uranium remediation solutions that can have downstream impacts on our energy landscape. Complemented by their entrepreneurial founder-led team, we are excited to begin this partnership," said Maynard Holt, Founder and CEO of Veriten. DISA has successfully executed several key milestones over the last 24 months, and this funding round will enable the company to scale its operations and expand the capabilities of HPSA faster than ever.

The Best Twin Mattresses On Amazon That Ship Right To Your Front Door

Amazon carries mattresses from some of our most top-rated brands and good value options, whether you're looking to furnish your child's bedroom, a guest room or your own sleep space. The best twin mattresses on Amazon are supportive and durable, accommodate a variety of sleeping positions and/or have upgraded features that make them even more comfortable. And since they're sold on Amazon, they ship quickly, compressed in a box. We think the best overall choice is the Lucid 10-inch Gel Memory Foam mattress, which hugs the body's curves for optimal pressure relief and is available in multiple firmness levels. The Nectar Classic is the best twin memory foam mattress and offers a generous lifetime warranty. Illustration: Forbes / Photo: Retailer The right mattress for you or your child depends on specific body type, primary sleep posture and personal preference. Mattresses for guest rooms should be generally accommodating to suit the varied needs of guests you have coming and going. Below, we highlight a list of mattresses that cater to different needs and budgets, and review the most important factors to consider when you're shopping for a twin-size mattress. Our Top Recommendations Best Twin Mattress On Amazon Overall: Lucid 10-Inch Memory Foam Mattress Best Twin Hybrid Mattress On Amazon: Leesa Sapira Hybrid Mattress Best Twin Memory Foam Mattress On Amazon: Nectar Classic Mattress Best Medium-Firm Twin Mattress On Amazon: Casper Sleep Element Type: Memory foam | Firmness: Plush, medium or firm | Trial: 30 nights | Warranty: 10 years Best for: A variety of sleeping positions (side, back and stomach) Body types under 250 pounds Those who like to be nestled by their mattress Skip if: You weigh over 250 pounds or you want a more supportive choice Lucid is one of the most popular mattress brands on Amazon. Rather than a flashy or feature-rich design, this all-foam Lucid Mattress caters to those who simply want a comfortable mattress that they, their kids or guests can sleep on. It has a three-layer construction with gel-infused memory foam as its primary comfort material, which helps draw away body heat and molds to the shape of your curves. Choose between three firmness levels–plush, medium or firm–and different height profiles as low as 5 inches or as tall as 14 inches. We recommend a medium or firm model unless you're looking to purchase a bed for a lightweight side sleeper under 150 pounds. Type: Hybrid | Firmness: Medium | Trial: 100 nights | Warranty: 10 years Best for: Hot sleepers who want cooling options Most sleeping positions and body types Those in the market for a premium twin bed Those who want good edge support Skip if: You prefer the hugged feel of memory foam You're looking for a very soft or very firm feel When you buy a hybrid mattress , you get the benefit of supportive coils that are reminiscent of a traditional innerspring mattress with the added bonus of squishy, contouring foam. The Leesa Sapira Hybrid Mattress is from a trusted, major online mattress brand. It has upgraded features like edge support reinforcements, which keep you feeling more sturdy when you sleep near the bed's sides, and a cooling cover which can be purchased for around $100 extra on a twin-size mattress. The standard Sapira model is offered in a medium firmness which is best for back, side and combination sleepers, while the cooling model (Sapira Chill) also comes in soft or firm. Type: Memory foam | Firmness: Medium-firm | Trial: 365 nights | Warranty: Lifetime Best for: Those who want a long testing period and generous warranty Back, stomach and combination sleepers Those who want a contouring, hugging feel Skip if: You're a side sleeper You are a heavier sleeper who wants a hybrid bed Memory foam mattresses are popular for their nestling, molding feel that morphs under the shape of your body after you lie down. The Nectar Classic is the brand's flagship mattress, and has a high-end memory foam feel similar to premium competitors, but at a great value at only $350 for a twin-size mattress. 'This Nectar mattress simultaneously feels dense but cushiony—an ideal amount of sinkage that's not too much and not too little,' says a team member who tested the mattress firsthand. To keep it from sleeping too hot, the cover is woven with cooling fibers that absorb your body heat and evenly distribute it throughout the bed. Its medium-firm profile is ideal for back, stomach and combination sleepers or guests in a spare bedroom, but may be too firm for a child who sleeps on their side. See more in our full Nectar Mattress review . Type: Memory foam | Firmness: Medium-firm | Trial: 100 nights | Warranty: 10 years Best for: Back, stomach and combination sleepers Those who weigh under 250 pounds Sleepers who want a simple value pick Skip if: You want a soft mattress You prefer a supportive hybrid mattress Generally, experts consider a medium-firm mattress profile the sweet spot for a variety of sleeping positions and for those with back pain, because it lends ample support to your spine without compromising on pressure relief. The Casper Element, an Amazon exclusive mattress, is 10 inches thick stacked with two layers, including responsive memory foam that doesn't make you feel like you're sinking. According to the brand, the memory foam has an open-cell design that helps promote better airflow for hot sleepers , and it has a soft knit cover made from recycled materials. Type: Memory foam | Firmness: Medium-soft | Trial: 100 days | Warranty: 10 years Best for: People who favor their side Those who live with joint pain Children or sleepers under 250 pounds Skip if: You're a dedicated stomach or back sleeper You're a heavyweight sleeper over 250 pounds Some sleepers, like lightweight individuals and those who prefer resting on their side, need a plush and soft mattress with extra cushioning that properly gives under the weight of your hips and shoulders. The Vibe Gel Memory Foam Mattress has a cushy medium-soft profile that offers plenty of sinkage and pressure relief for your joints. It sits 12 inches high, taller than several other foam mattresses in our roundup, and features gel-infused and open-cell foam for better temperature regulation and ease of movement.

She has over five years of product testing and recommendations experience as well as over 15 years' experience as a journalist in New York. We regularly revisit our content to ensure our recommendations are accurate and relevant. This article was first published in July 2025. To select the best twin mattresses on Amazon, we relied on our own vast expertise as sleep editors who have tested many of these brands firsthand. We explored the mattress brands available on Amazon that our team has personal experience with and can confidently speak on their quality. We considered mattresses with foam and hybrid constructions that appeal to a variety of different sleepers and needs, in addition to firmness, edge support, feel and price. We pored through hundreds of reviews on Amazon to determine the best twin mattresses on Amazon that are vetted by verified customers, and only chose mattresses that have a 4-star rating or higher. Most modern mattresses either have an all-foam or hybrid construction and each has their own benefits. All-foam mattresses are best at isolating motion and cushioning your joints (with the exception of very firm mattresses), but they aren't as supportive for larger body types. Hybrid mattresses that are made with coils and foam tend to last longer and provide better durability, support and ease of movement. That said, they tend to be more expensive than all-foam beds. Firmness Mattresses range from soft to firm and everything in between. Medium-firm is a popular firmness level because it offers a balance of firmness and support, but it may not be suitable for those who need more pressure relief (like individuals under 250 pounds and dedicated side sleepers). Soft mattresses offer the best pressure relief for side sleepers, while firm beds tend to offer better spinal support if you sleep prone or supine. In general, the right firmness for you depends on your primary sleeping position. Sleeping Position Use your predominant sleeping position as a guide to find the most accommodating firmness profile. Side sleepers typically feel most comfortable on medium to soft mattresses that have enough give to nestle your hip and shoulder joints. Back sleepers usually require a medium to firm mattress that keeps the spine lifted and promotes proper alignment. Stomach sleepers need a medium-firm to firm mattress that doesn't let the spine sink into your mattress. Combination sleepers can opt for a medium to medium-firm mattress that walks the line between soft and firm for the benefits of both profiles. Body Type Typically, the more you weigh, the softer a mattress is going to feel. And the opposite is true—the less you weigh, the firmer a bed seems. Keep this rule in mind while you're shopping for the most appropriate firmness profile. We also think hybrid mattresses made with coils are best for sleepers over 250 pounds in the long term. However, if you plan to keep your twin bed in a guest room, an all-foam mattress does the trick. Do People Buy Mattresses On Amazon? Yes. There are hundreds of mattresses on Amazon to choose from, including top-rated brands that are popular online or in big box stores. How Much Should I Pay For A Good Twin Mattress? A good twin mattress is around $300 on the low end and up to $1,200 on the high end. Remember that price alone isn't the best indication of a mattress's suitability, so it can be helpful to read through reviews for an idea of what existing customers think. What Are The Three Top-Rated Mattresses On Amazon? The Vibe, Lucid and Nectar Mattresses are all highly rated on Amazon with thousands of positive customer reviews.
