The mattress is very nice, it just took me a few nights to get used to the texture of the elastic polymer. I like the level of support and firmness. That said, I don't care at all for the feel of the Purple mattress protector that was included with my purchase as it makes the bed surface feel slippery and "plasticy" like a cheap hotel mattress. The surface of the actual mattress was very soft, so it's disappointing that the protector takes away from that quality. If not for the protector I'd probably give the bed a Excellent overall rating.

30 days later, this bed was absolutely the right decision, we are not as sore or misaligned as before. And I find myself CRAVING my bed, instead of the couch or a vacant kids bed for a change. I only ordered the base model this time, next time I'll upgrade. We did splurge on the new fancy hex pillows though, and the only thing I have to say about that, is I need a travel size version so I can take my pillow everywhere.

Sleeps cool, sleeps comfortably, stays clean (we used the Purple branded mattress protector), the Purple branded sheets sleep even cooler and fit the bed very well. Zero complaints after a year. Zero complaints after 4 years on the original Purple mattress, too!

So I will say that the mattress is better than my old one but purple set my expectations very high through their marketing. I am 170 pound guy and I bought this orginal purple mattress because I'm broke. I wake up cracking every bone in my body once I wake up. I thought I was getting an angelic sleep based off the aggression of advertising but I didn't. Try other mattress this one is going in my spare bedroom.

I have a queen hybrid 4 with adjustable base and this is the only thing that has helped my back, neck and shoulder pain. I was on the verge of scheduling surgery due to the intensity of the pain. There is an adjustment period of a few days-weeks and it is absolutely worth it!!

I always have ongoing chronic back and neck pain due to muscle tension, pinched nerves, and possibly fibromyalgia. Purple changed my sleep entirely. My pain was messing up my life, and while the mattress isn't fixing the medical problem, it makes sleep so much more comfortable and lessens my pain dramatically. I hate sleeping on any other bed now, because nothing compares. I highly recommend the stretchy sheets and a Purple or memory foam pillow to use with it. As someone who has a curvy body, the mattress hugs and cradles and supports all of my body which alleviates my lower back pain. Note: I am a back sleeper, although with Purple I can sleep on my side comfortably too.

We had a sleep number bed which never lived up to the hype which made me a little skeptical of the Purple mattress. The guarantee made it feasible to try it out. I was concerned because I prefer firm and my wife likes a more plush feel. We've had the Purple about two weeks and we've both slept like the dead. My wife's back issues have all but gone away. My only regret is that the price of the Power Base was just a little too high so I had to shop for an alternative.

My old mattress which was supposed to be cooling and only 2 years old left my husband in a puddle and me restless. With the purple mattress we are both sleeping sound all night long and sweat free! I didn't know that was possible. I can't wait to try the purple pillow!

I have the original purple mattress, and couldn't be happier! I have read other reviews where the people said they needed to get used to the feeling of the mattress, but that was not my case. Mine was love at first night. I am typically a very hot sleeper and the cooling properties of this mattress have helped me beyond expectations. If I was mattress shopping today, I can truthfully say I would pick the same mattress over again, which I think is the highest praise you can give any product you've bought.

I gotta say- buying the Purple Mattress ( Queen Size with pillow, sheets, protector, and platform) has been one of the best purchases of my life- that may sound extreme, but I can attest to how a quality night's sleep impacts your day-to-day life in such a profound way. Imagine waking up,after years of restless nights, and finally feeling alive. That is what it has been like for me. I can look forward to going to bed now. Where I used to wake-up feeling even worse than I did when I went to bed (it took hours to finally feel awake enough to even speak coherently) I can now finally awaken finally feeling refreshed and pain-free. The restlessness had given me unexplainable anxiety. I couldn't bear to be around people because I was so exhausted. I didn't have the energy to pay attention to what people were saying nor to respond in any detail. If you can relate to anything I've said above, I implore you to give it a shot. It's unlike any other mattress you've tried. I should also mention that I sleep on my back and side- switching between the two. Some nights now, I hardly move at all.
