I am also a disabled veteran. I have had every ligament in my knees repaired in various ways, and have very little cartilage left. They tell me I'm too young for knee replacements, so I deal. I'm an oil field truck driver to pay the bills. Over the course of the work-day, the pain travels from my knees to my hips and up my back, eventually ending in my neck, all of which have arthritis already. When doctors ask to rate your pain, I would say mine hits 8/10 every night I work. I also have severe sleep apnea and have never been able to sleep on my back until Purple. The mattress I had before I bought a Purple was a pillow top spring and foam thing that felt comfortable at first, but I found that I woke up still in pain and even managed to tear my rotator cuff in my sleep somehow. I still don't know how that works. My roommate suggested a new mattress might be the answer, but I am cheap! I have had people recommend Purple mattresses to me, so I looked into them. I used Affirm to purchase a Queen original purple at 0% interest. The first night I had the Purple mattress, I slept deeper and longer than I have slept in years. I refer to it as "Drool-sleep". I didn't notice any unpleasant scents. The pressure relief is noticeable, even when laying on my side in my hips and knees. I have also noticed that my spine is in a much better line no matter sleep position. Back, side, stomach, I use them all. My CPAP AHI score went from 5 to 1.3. I'm not saying it works miracles! It might not work for everyone. Some mornings, I still wake up creaky and a little groggy. But I find that I want to sleep so much more and I wake up with much less pain. I can't take naps any more. They turn into accidental sleep marathons. Even my dogs love the new mattress and wake me up so they can take it over. My only complaint is that I keep being late for work because I don't want to get out of bed!

I have been sleeping on my new bed for over three months now. I can honestly say this is the best bed I have slept on ever. I wake up rested, no sore bones and joints from poor support. Some nights I sleep the entire night in on position. I am currently living in the desert where the temperature is 110 plus everyday. The bed is not at all hot like all of the other foam beds I have tried. I can say this bed is worth the price. The bamboo sheets are something else. They are soft and stay put on the bed. All in all I would recommend the bed and the sheets to anyone who wants a good bed to get a great nights sleep.

Totally do it again!! It was simple , no stores to go to and lay down and trying out the same mattress over and over again! I had low back pain and one week after sleeping on my purple mattress it was gone, no joke, wish I had found this product years ago!! So simple when it comes to your door, bring it in and unroll it and let it go!! Best sleep ever!

I thought that the purple bed would be a cure all for the back pain I was experiencing. I have slept on many beds traveling for work and they all seemed better than my old mattress. So naturally I thought the purple would be the best thing ever. I do like it. I just dont think its as great as you say. I find myself tilting out of the bed if I get even remotely close to the side of the mattress at night.

We love the bed- thought it would have a little more cushion to it but still like it. Only problem is the frame we purchased from purple as well, makes noise when you sit in the bed or bump into it. Like somethings loose on the frame, but we followed all the directions when putting it together. For the money I was expecting it to be more solid.

I've been sleeping on hand-me-down beds for a long time, and eventually developed some lower back pain because of this. I saw a Purple ad a few months ago and decided that I would get one when I had a chance. Well, a couple weeks ago I once again woke up with crippling pain and also realized I had the capital I needed. So I finally ordered a Purple mattress and pillow and I couldn't be more pleased. My back pain is completely gone. My only complaint about the mattress itself is that it is a bit more firm than I am used to.

I am not much of a review writer but I took time out only to give purple a 5 out of 5 rating because of what Purple has done to my sleep. On my old memory foam mattress, I used to wake up very tired even after getting a 9+ hours of sleep. There was so much of tossing and turning. After I bought purple , I am able to wake up energized with just 7+ hours of sleep. It helped fix my sleep patterns so well that I don't need to set my alarm anymore. It took exactly 2 days for me adjust to this mattress and within 1 week I started sleeping like a baby. The temperature control of this mattress is so right for me. I can say that I am highly impressed with this mattress that I bought their pillows as well. I want to thank Purple team for their superior research put into making this mattress. Will recommend you to anyone who is looking out to buy a mattress.

Mainly a side sleeper and I've had really bad back problems for a while. I've had the mattress for a week and half and my back feels noticeably different, in a good way. No complaints. And I was a little worried at first. I went through a lot of the reviews before finally ordering and I am happy with it. One thing I noticed about the pillow though. And I had two goes at it. My boyfriend bought me a purple pillow last year and I noticed the first two nights I woke up hot which was weird but after that it's be very comfortable. Got a second one when I ordered the mattress and same thing happened with the pillow again. But again after the second night no waking up hot and sweaty.

I did quite a bit of research before purchasing the original purple. What really stood out to me was the amount of people that no longer had any back pain after either just a few nights to a month of use. I have had back pain on and off for at least 15 years and never seem to get a good nights sleep. I had hoped this was the end! The first night on the mattress I noticed a little discomfort in my lower back where I normally have no issues. Over the next two nights that discomfort completely went away. After that, upper back pain and stiffness showed up that has remained. I spent two nights on my couch and the pain went away. Slept on the mattress again and the first night it came back. I would like to return this mattress and try the Newest model with the 4" top but the price difference is way beyond what I expected. My wife, who didn't want to replace our last mattress, now wakes up a few times a week with back pain as well. My weight 168lbs and 6'0" tall.

I purchased this bed for my son. He is very tall and has had some back issues recently. The first night he slept on the purple mattress he was so excited. The next morning he woke up and said, "That was the best sleep ever." The deliver was quick and this was the easiest set up I have ever done.
