Every night around 2 am I was woken up by pain in my back, feeling like someone was punching me in the kidney. I got a pad of memory foam to put on the Purple 4, and that helped some. Still, every morning I wake up in PAIN. I am sorry to say that Purple did not work for me and I will be returning it. I bought the mattress in May and it is now September 1, so it's not like I didn't give it a chance.

I don't know what was updated about the original mattress other than the cover and the edge support, but I have soft mattress problems now. I have a full-sized ORIGINAL original purple at home and I absolutely love it. Firm where you need it to be firm, soft where you want it to be soft, and I wake up feeling more rested than ever. Honestly one of the best investments I ever made. I recently moved into another apartment and bought one about a month ago to take with me, and it's comfy, yeah, but now my partner and I are having issues. We're sinking into the mattress, and although it still easily bounces back when you get up, the problem is when we're actually lying down. I'm actually FALLING against him as we sleep and rest in it, so not only does it make cuddling a chore, but since we're both side sleepers, we both wake up with back, shoulder, and neck pain because of it. It also doesn't isolate movement properly anymore and that is incredibly disappointing. We both get up frequently in the middle of the night, and now we just end up waking each other up. Strongly considering returning it and just moving the one I have at my previous home since the old original is no longer available... kinda sucks though because I won't have a bed to sleep in when I visit family. Never thought I'd have to leave a bad review for this mattress, but it's not what's advertised anymore. :(

My husband and I had a mattress that was way past their due, and was looking for a new mattress. Like everyone else, we started searching online and that was when we ran into the light and funny purple commercial. It seemed "good enough," and honestly it was one of the cheapest options. So we decided to give it a try. Initially, we were a little suspicious because this Purple Mattress doesn't feel like any other mattress. It's very different from tempurpedic, or a classic spring mattress. It has rather strange jelly texture... But that's really what makes this mattress so special. It is absolutely fantastic! My back no longer hurts when I wake up, and my husband doesn't snore anymore! We have been sleeping on it for 3 months and cannot be happier. Best purchase!

Ok. I just woke up from my first night's sleep on the purple mattress. First off let me say that I have had several back surgeries and still have 2 rebuilt vertebrae, 3 missing disks, 2 rods, 10 hooks, a missing rib and a titanium vice on the inside of my spine so let your imagine go as to how much pain I am used to feeling upon getting out of bed. To my great surprise and overwhelming delight I got out of bed this morning, after only one night, and was able to walk down my steps to the first floor of my house without having to go one step at a time. As I am writing this review I am actually hoping that it is really just all in my mind and that by the end I will still feel the pain I am accustomed to and will just close the browser page. When first laying down on the mattress I was unsure if it was going to work because it is such a different feel than the normal mattresses on the market (even the memory foam). I am 55 years old and am one of those people that take at least an hour, usually more, to fall asleep. Not so on the purple mattress. I don't even remember how or when it happened. I just fell asleep. Such a weird feeling after so many years of tossing and turning and finally passing out instead of going to sleep.. Let's talk heat. I wake up every morning, even in the dead of winter, burning up with no sheets or blankets on as I have kicked them off sometime in the night. Not on this mattress. Now they claim that is due to airflow but I am not sure that those little purple squares allow ANY airflow but somehow someway I woke up and wasn't exactly cool but I most certainly was not hot in the least and was still under the bedding. Yet another weird feeling. I am going to wrap this up because I could really go on and on but let me just say this, if you are in the market for a new mattress you would be doing yourself a disservice if you did not at least try the purple mattress. I am sure it is not for everyone but if it can please me, a person who is NEVER satisfied with anything, and so far for me it has lived up to everything claim the company made, then you might find it as great as I do right now. I will be sure to write another review after the recommended 30 days of my trial or upon returning it to Purple which ever comes first. ORDER IT NOW! Why spend another night sleeping lousy? What have you got to lose? They say you can return it if not satisfied. PS. I am hoping to become a back sleeper in the near future now that the pain giving bed has been replaced by Purple. Happy sleeping everyone.

Simply put, this mattress was not for me. As a stomach sleeper and a bit on the heavier side, it was just too soft and giving me lower back pain every morning even after a 30-day trial period. Having said that, I am giving Purple a 5-star rating because I believe that the materials used in this mattress were of exceptional quality and my wife actually did like it. On top of that, the company has been a breeze to work with and they stand by their 100-night trial for a refund. The way they handle refunds is also very commendable. I would still very much recommend this company and this mattress because everyone is different and it may just work for you.

I bought the original and I am 6,2", 175 lbs lean and muscular build and I still have not gotten used too the mattress I toss and turn as it's too firm for my shoulders as I side sleeper, unfortunately it' was slightly past the 100 days when I realized it was the mattress keeping me up at night, the overall quality is good though, it's also super heavy so good luck trying to move a king mattress, it's difficult.

Bed turned out to be way too firm for my wife and I. Purple was great though on the return however they were unable to find anyone to pick up our mattress. If you are in area where they can't find someone to pick it up you may be stuck with hauling it away

Overall Quality feels good. Comfortable. I would say it is one of the more comfortable mattresses I've slept on. In this price range it was the most comfortable mattress I've had. Would be nice if it was a tad cooler but is still far cooler than a foam bed.

I really wanted to love my mattress, I did. But unfortunately the reality is I don't. I have had it about 3 weeks now and while I know it can take some time to adjust to a new mattress, however, I've had totally restless sleep every night I know it's not a good fit for me. The mattress is too firm for my comfort and also seemed kind of thin overall. The service so far has been very friendly and hassle-free in regard to a refund which definitely leaves a good impression. Sorry it didn't work out, Purple mattress! It's not you, it's me.

WOW, is it a hard mattress. You can feel the grid beneath the cover. It REALLY needs some cushioning, or Purple needs to develop a mattress pad to buy separate for people who need some cushioning. This is probably a great mattress if you like firmer beds, but I have wide hips, and I haven't slept for more than 4 hours a night in a couple weeks now. I gave it 2 months, but I can't do it anymore. I'll be calling to return the mattress soon.
