News about tariffs changes every day. But one thing is certain: Tariffs on goods from certain countries that play outsize roles in manufacturing products Americans need are bound to mean higher prices for American manufacturers and consumers alike.
This applies to the manufacture of mattresses and bedding in those countries and shipped to the US as well as to component parts—such as memory foam from China or Vietnam or imported steel for coils for innerspring mattresses.
Ahead, this article will break down everything you need to know about mattress tariffs and how it will affect future mattress purchases.
What are mattress tariffs?
First things first: Tariffs are designed to address concerns about unfair trade practices and overproduction, particularly when a country dumps its low-cost goods onto the global market, threatening domestic industries.
Tariffs increase the cost of imported goods—including mattresses and mattress components—leading to higher prices for consumers. Even mattresses that are “assembled in the USA” can be impacted if they rely on imported materials like memory foam or steel coils.
Since the latest rounds of tariffs took effect, forecasters are expecting mattress prices to increase 10%-25%, depending on the mattress type and materials. CNN reported in May 2025 that mattress prices were already increasing.
The sourcing of mattress materials will significantly impact price increases. Per the sleep health resource eachnight, memory foam mattresses sourced from China will have the highest increases at 15%-25%. Innerspring mattresses could see price hikes in the 10%-20% range if they use imported steel for coils. All-latex mattresses, however, could see more moderate increases of 5%-15%, depending on the latex’s source country.
According to eachnight, even pillows are expected to have 10%-20% price increases, particularly if they are made with latex, memory foam, or down. There will be increases as well for mattress pads, protectors, sheets, and other bedding. Down comforters in particular are expected to rise significantly in price.
It’ll be more important than ever for cost-conscious mattress shoppers to understand the difference between “assembled in the USA” versus “manufactured in the USA with domestic materials.”
Whether you’re actively shopping for a new mattress or merely trying to understand how the shifting tariffs could affect your future purchase, it’s important to consider such factors as when to buy, the materials you might want in your mattress, and the brand itself—more important than ever in today’s tariff-heavy marketplace.
Which mattress brands will be affected the most by tariffs?
Not every mattress company will be as impacted by the 2025 tariffs as others. Such factors as business model, supply chains, and manufacturing approach will determine which ones can adapt versus those that may not survive.
The most heavily impacted companies will be cheaper mattress brands that rely on sourcing budget materials from countries like China, Vietnam, and Indonesia, according to Tom’s Guide.
This includes direct-to-consumer mattresses in a box. They often rely on imported materials—including the very manufacturing equipment to assemble the mattresses and the compression equipment used to squeeze them into boxes.
The machines will become more expensive to import, which will increase operational costs and, with them, consumer prices. Budget mattress makers already operating on thin profit margins aren’t likely to be able to absorb increased production costs.
Companies that mainly source their mattress components domestically will likely be able to maneuver through the tariff era intact. For those that are domestic mattress makers and rely on domestic partners for components, the impact of tariffs will likely not be felt.
Given their higher price points, premium and luxury brands may be better able to absorb any tariff-related costs. That said, it’s important to point out that although some materials can be sourced in America—including steel and cotton—it may not be possible to source all materials domestically. That means there may still be (likely lower) price increases from these brands.
