"The support is unbelievable" — save 30% on my favorite firm mattress this Memorial Day
The Plank Firm is a dual-sided all-foam mattress with an extra firm feel that delivers superior support to front and back sleepers. It has returned to the lowest price we've seen it at this Memorial Day, with 30% off the Plank Firm mattress at Plank. That means a queen is now $932.40 (was $1,332.)
When I tested the Plank Firm Mattress, I was skeptical. It doesn't have the 'cozy' feel I'd always associated with comfort and it was hard at first to appreciate anything but the firmness.
But after a few minutes of lying quietly, I could feel what made the Plank Firm mattress stand out: support. The Plank Firm has exceptional support that can compete with the best mattresses we've tested, beating even some premium models — all at a mid-range price.
It's not a feel everyone will love — I recommend the Helix Dawn if you want firm, but not that firm — but with 30% off, here's why it's one of my top picks of the Memorial Day mattress sales 2025. If you are looking for an excellent price on a top rated mattress but not sold on the Plank, we're also tracking the latest deals as they happen in our Memorial Day mattress sales live blog.
Plank Firm Mattress: twin was $749 now $524.30 at PlankWe cover a wide range of mattresses here at Tom's Guide but there are few like the Plank Firm. As well as being double-sided (a rarity) the Plank Firm feels harder than the majority of beds we've tried — the Extra Firm side is the firmest mattress we've tested. The primary benefit of this is support. In my Plank Firm Mattress review I described the support as "unbelievable" and praised how the dense foams held my spine straight, avoiding the uncomfortable sinking feeling that can occur on even the best memory foam mattresses. The Firm side is more of a crowd-pleaser, with an added layer of quilted foam to cushion the joints. A queen is currently $932.40 (was $1,332) and I'd be very surprised to see a better deal on the Plank Firm — 30% off is the same discount we saw for Black Friday 2024 (as well as President's Day 2025.) A 120-night trial, free shipping and limited lifetime warranty are included.
Our review: ★★★★½
The thing about the Plank Firm being an Extra Firm mattress is, and excuse me for stating the obvious, that it's a hard mattress. That means it won't appeal to everyone and even firm mattress fans might prefer something with a little more of that 'cozy' feeling. For you, I recommend the Helix Dawn Mattress...
Helix Dawn Mattress: twin was $998.66 now $729.03 at HelixThe Helix Dawn is one of our favorite hybrid mattresses and as I discovered during our Helix Dawn mattress review, it's ideal for for back and stomach sleepers. Although softer than the Plank, it's still too firm for most side sleepers. But when I slept on my side on this mattress, I did appreciate how the responsive foams gave way beneath the hips and knees to prevent any achiness in the morning. Use code TOMS27 at checkout to save 27% on all sizes of the Dawn in the Helix Memorial Day sale, reducing a queen to $972.36 (was $1,332.) It comes with a 100-night trial and lifetime warranty.

Anti-American sentiment from tariffs is NOT having a major impact on Utah tourism: Utah Office of Tourism
SALT LAKE CITY () — Despite national decreases in international tourism, many Utah businesses saw a successful Memorial Day weekend. Managing Director for the Utah Office of Tourism Natalie Randall told ABC4, 'In the state of Utah, we know that international visitation is a critical piece to our visitor economy.' Randall reported that about 7% of the total visitor direct spending comes from international visitation, and about 40% of that comes from Canadian visitors. 'As you're talking through tariffs, as you're thinking about the Canadian sentiment that's coming in, we're seeing at the national level, there's been this reduction in visitation to the U.S., and at Utah, we know that we're not immune to seeing those changes as well, and so for us it's a priority to remain proactive in the space and continue to engage with the Canadian visitor and let them know that this is a place that they can be inspired to visit.' Natalie Randall, Managing Director for the Utah Office of Tourism However, Randall also told that there was not a large negative impact on tourism over Memorial Day weekend. Upcoming Ogden car show to raise funds for program that helps at-risk youth 'Many of our businesses were able to experience successful weekends, full bookings, and many of them were able to find ways to backfill from what you might anticipate with the international visitation perhaps lagging slightly,' she said. Randall said that there are many reasons to remain optimistic, including West Jet recently investing in a direct flight from Salt Lake City to Edmonton, Canada. In a recent survey of Canadian travelers conducted by Love Communications, 63% of respondents would still consider visiting the U.S. in the next 36 months, with 42% saying 'yes' and 21% saying 'maybe.' In that survey, the most influential factors in interest in visiting the U.S. was natural scenery and iconic landmarks or historical sites, which might offer one explanation as to why international visitation to Utah has not suffered greatly, as Utah is rich in natural scenery and iconic landmarks.
