As a military family, we need quality mattresses in our home that will stand the test of multiple moves at a price that makes sense for our budget. So, when Kirst was transitioning her son from his crib to a “big boy bed” she took a deep dive with the milso community here into which mattress is the best quality and *bonus* offers a military discount that will make you drool!
Nectar
This is the brand that Kirst ultimately went with because the reviews are insanely good, plus her sister has a Nectar mattress so she tried that out when she was visiting her and loved it! While the reviews alone are enough to make you excited about this purchase, their military discount is what sealed the deal. They offer 5% on top of whatever deal they’re running on their site (up to 40%), so Kirst has gotten two mattresses for 40% off (yes, you read that correctly!!) Added bonus is that they offer bundle options, so all-in she paid $640 for a full-size memory foam mattress, mattress protector, set of sheets, and two cooling pillows. Incredible!

Helix
This was another top-recommended brand because of their “made to grow with kids” all based on age and their changing bodies. They also offer an epic 30% military discount.

Casper
Dare we say, the “OG” of boxed mattresses? This it the one we both have in our master bedrooms and we l-o-v-e them. Their pricing is a little steeper, which we understand because they’ve proven themselves as a solid quality brand that stands the test of multiple military moves – at least for our families! They offer a 20% military discount.

Purple
Another popular recommendation for comfort and cost, this brand has been around for a bit and has a really solid established reputation. At Purple they offer a standard 10% military discount.
