For five years now, I have been sleeping on the same foam mattress. I decided to purchase a Purple mattress after experiencing back pain and waking up with my shoulders hurting. The first few nights sleeping on it took some getting used to. I'm sensitive to texture, so feeling the grid of squares underneath me while I toss and turn is still a bit strange. I used an extra comforter on the mattress as a sort of pillow top and that has helped me feel better about it. Compared to a foam mattress, the Purple mattress feels more bouncy. After sleeping on it for about 3 weeks now, my back and shoulders don't hurt anymore at all. I have had my friends try the mattress as well. My heavier friends thought it was perfect, but my smaller friend found it a bit too firm for her liking. So it really depends on personal preference and body. I believed the mattress was a bit firm at first, but after sleeping on it I found that my back feels well supported in every position. Adjustment takes a while. Apart from still getting used to the texture of the Purple grid, I like the mattress.

Was so happy to try out our new Purple Mattress. We have slept on it for 11 nights & so far it's Great. Firm & soft at the same time. No sweating at night and wake up feeling really good. The sheets are great too. Hope is continues as we have never had a mattress feel so good... Thanks

I was a 270 lbs backhoe operator and smoked 2 packs a day. Since sleeping on my Purple Mattress, I'm now a svelt 149 lbs of pure muscle and now the principal male balarina for the Russian National Ballet. Truly life changing. Thanks! Ps. I have changed my name to Yuri Sleptgoodalot.

We loved our purple pillows so we bought the mattress. It's is honestly so comfortable unless I roll over toward the middle of the bed.. then it feels like rolling up hill! One of my major concerns was sagging in the middle. This mattress doesn't do that but I feel like it's wearing out directly beneath my body. (We've has it about 3 months) Now. Like any good people customer I got the mattress protector, the sheets.. no improvement. Finally over much disagreement I convinced my hubby to ditch the old box spring and frame for the purple platform. OH NO! So incredibly squeaky! Sharp edges!!!!!! Poorly placed support beams along the edge of the bed have resulted in many stubbed toes. And last but not least, no improvement in the performance of the mattress. I really wish purple would take back the dangerous base they sold me and replace it with something that will do the job without endangering my little girl who crawls around near the sharp edges!!!! If purple reaches out to me I will update this review.

I bought the original single layer Purple mattress and am actually disappointed in the quality of sleep I get. I toss and turn all night and wake up 2-3 times a night still just like when I slept on the floor. I tend to sleep on my side most of the night and I bought this mattress thinking it would help me no cut off the blood to my arms and support my back, but that just wasn't the case. Don't get me wrong though, If you're a back sleeper this is a wonderful mattress! its better than sleeping on the floor for sure, but I don't think I'll keep it

Full disclosure, this review is NOT regarding my Purple Mattress, but requires a bit of backstory regarding it to get to the Sheets. My partner and I ordered a Purple Mattress over a year ago because the spring mattress I had was just not cutting it (rock hard, lumpy, and all-in-all just not comfortable). Once our Purple arrived, we - for the first time ever - were actively looking forward to getting into bed. I maintain that the Purple Mattress is the only reason I'm able to get up as early as I do in the morning - I sleep so much more deeply than before. HOWEVER, my partner and I definitely noticed a difference in our quality of sleep on the Purple Mattress when sleeping on the old cotton sheets and, during laundry day, when sleeping on the bare mattress. On the sheets I'd wake up once or twice a night, but on the bare mattress I'd sleep straight to my alarm. We also agree we felt "cradled" on the bare mattress and "hammocking" on the cotton sheets, which is what you'd expect - the cotton sheets don't let the cells of the Purple Mattress compress and form around your body because they don't stretch. So, after a year of dealing with that, we finally bit the bullet and bought some Purple Sheets. I can say, without a doubt, that the Sheets do not inhibit the performance of the Mattress at all - they work completely as advertised and really reinforce the notion that the Sheets+Mattress are a system that works best together. Our bodies fall straight to the Mattress to let it do the work. They also feel divine and the color (Slate) is deep and rich. They're also much denser, so you don't waste as much water washing them because they occupy less space in the washer/dryer. However, it's not all sunshine and lollipops, otherwise I'd have left a 5-star review! I'm not a fan of the top sheet - I'm used to my non-fitted sheet draping over the sides of the bed, and this sheet only reaches to the edge but without hanging over it. I'd have thought I was given the wrong size if it wasn't clearly listed as a Queen on the tag. The jury's still out on whether I'll use my cotton sheet instead because of this. Also, and this is kind of nitpicky, but I was not a fan of the packaging the sheets came in. A tri-fold, laminated, cardboard box with embedded magnets is NOT required for shipping a set of sheets, especially when the sheets themselves are in a drawstring bag INSIDE of that box! I expected a little more efficiency from a company who shipped my mattress vacuum-sealed and rolled up tightly and efficiently in a duffel bag.

Josh from the U-village store in Seattle was very knowledgeable and patient while we were deciding what pillow best suits our sleeping style. He helped us along the way and answered all of our questions. He was so helpful! Thank you Josh! Love the pillows!

We have used this mattress for about 3 weeks. Back pain and stiffness are gone for both of us, and my husband doesn't wake up hot or sweaty. My husband has asthma and is allergic to everything, so I was a bit concerned about all the fuss people were making over the white powder issue. Honestly, I took the top cover off, got a black t-shirt and bounced around for a while to see if any residue came up. Nothing showed up on the t-shirt. Still, better safe than sorry so I got out the vacuum and vacuumed the mattress to get as much of the powder off as I could. Then, I put the cover bag on and vacuumed again. Just like I have done with every mattress we have owned for 20+ years. I think the people that are freaking out over the powder are the same type of people that believe that fluoride in the drinking water will kill you and that vaccines are poison.

Incredibly comfortable. It took a couple days to get used to being able to slightly feel the grate (not in a bothersome way, just a this is different from my old mattress way). It really does help keep you cool as well, which will be fantastic in the summer!

I have been sleeping on our new Purple matterss for about a week and a half and are very happy with it. I no longer toss and turn all night. I am just very sorry that right after I ordered it all kind of freebies were offered but we received none of them..
