Just as most things aren't better covered in hair, so most things aren't better when they're too tight. Such is the case with the Purple mattress cover on my queen size Purple mattress. When I first unwrapped the mattress I felt softness, but barely a trace of an anglular grid of polymer underneath. After I put the cover on it mushed down the softness and now I can feel the grid. It's still a great bed and I sleep so hard on it. I just wish the mattress cover was an actual queen size instead of a full/queen. Would you give your Dad a one-size-too-small turtle neck?

That may seem like an over the top review title, but I'm one of those people who fell in love with the purple family. I started with the pillow as it was my best option to see what the material felt like and a little of its fascinating properties. As soon as the pillow arrived, I was convinced to get the mattress. Once I had the mattress, I knew I wasn't going to return it, so I invested in the mattress protector, and sheets. Next up will be the power base. The biggest thing I can say is Purple does it no one else. I did a lot of mattress shopping and nothing in the stores jumped out at me as screamingly comfortable, not even the high end ones. But just one night on purple and you see the world of difference. I read a lot of reviews about needing an adjustment period, I was lucky and had none, but I think that largely has to do with the sheets. I slept great for 3 nights with Jersey knit t-shirt sheets, then when I switched to conventional sheets, I got instant back pain. Before the mattress arrives, get a set of stretchy sheets (Purple, Sheex, Jersey Knit, etc...) because for me, that was a definable difference. I've never been happier with my bedroom, and now I spend more hours relaxing on the bed than ever before. Can't wait for the next latest and greatest from the masterminds of Purple.

I have a very serious spinal disease. Once I'd found a bed that worked, I never thought I'd buy a different bed ever again. Fast forward 5 years, I'm shopping for a new bed, to replace the old one. My roommates have a purple, and let me lay on it. My hand to God... THE PURPLE IS SUPERIOR TO MY OLD BED (which was a top of the line king koil latex memory foam, and selling for over $1500) do, not only did I take the plunge and buy the purple (which was only 2/3 of the cost of the other bed, but I love it more and more every day!

I bought the purple mattress due to tossing and turning a lot during the night and not getting good sleep. Turns out it is not the mattress it is just me. Although the mattress is comfortable I still toss and turn at night and not getting good sleep. The mattress does not sleep as cool as I would have thought.

My husband and I did extensive research before purchasing our mattress. Purple seemed to be the best mattress for our needs (we wanted a memory foam or similar, with cooling properties, good for side/stomach/back sleeping). My husband loves the Purple mattress. He no longer complains of back pain and loves that it takes pressure off of joints. I guess I am harder to please. I don't find that the mattress stays cool at all, in fact it is hotter than our old, plain coil-style mattress. It is definitely soft and pressure-relieving but I find it almost too soft. That is just a personal preference I suppose. For my back pain, I feel it is just a bit too soft. Overall, for the price, I find it to be a decent mattress. I just wish it would stay cool. If you are buying it specifically for that feature, I would say, keep shopping.

I've had back pain for years now, and I used to always expect to wake up with aches and stiffness in my back and neck. Although the purple mattress is not the most comfortable to fall asleep on for me, it gives me the support I need to wake up pain-free and ready for the day.

I am nearly 80 years old (male) and am now sleeping on a Purple mattress. I no longer get up in the morning with a stiff back. I have tried a number of mattresses including Casper and have not been able to remedy my stiff back issues. But then I found Purple, and I think this mattress is magic. It has remedied years of back issues.

Wow. This bed is a dangerous bed, in a very good way. This is what I mean. The first 2 weeks we slept on it, I had to set my alarm or else I wouldn't have woken up at my usual 6am. I slept through the night and it was good sleep. I had to train my body to wake up on time again. I know, right?! Dangerous bed. I like the fact that it is a durable bed and it shouldn't wear out quickly like other beds. We got the Purple Sheets at well and it makes sleeping on this bed a dream. It's cool (temperature) and soft no matter what side I sleep on. I love it. I'm holding out that last star to see how well it sleeps after 12 months

I received my Purple bed a couple of weeks ago and have loved every minute since, it is very comfortable and my sleep seems to be a lot deeper sleep that I had experienced in the past. Definitely would recommend buying one if you are thinking about it.

It is taking some time to get used to this mattress. But each day seems to be better. For our weight, it seems to be more on the firm side, but could still be due to the adjustment period. My hips are not nearly as stiff as they have been, so thats a plus.
