I was expecting a soft cuddle, especially since it cradled an egg without it breaking. Instead it was very ordinarily firm (customer service it was a 6 in the firm scale). I experienced lower back pain after the first night night and continued for weeks after. Even though I followed all of the customer service recommendations, my back could not bare it after a 3 weeks. Unfortunately, this was not the perfect mattress for me or my wife.... Just to be clear, it was not a weight issue as others experienced. We are a active fit couple. I am 165 lbs / 5'-9" and my wife is 130 lbs / 5'-5"

I was having a lot of tension in my upper back with our old mattress. Most spring mattresses were too firm for my liking and the foam mattresses made my back feel worse. The support and comfort of the Purple mattress has really made a difference for me. I hope to continue to see improvement in my sleep and back as I continue to use this awesome mattress.

Perfect balance of comfort and support. We love it. Totally worth the money. It's not as tall as our previous mattress so if you like to sleep higher you may want to buy a box spring in addition to your bed frame or buy a high bed frame. Great temperature regulation. I would get very hot on memory foam beds but no problems with the Purple mattress!

I'm very pleased with this mattress. There is a complete "night & day," difference in this mattress and my old one. Honestly I can sleep on my side, back, & stomach with no problem what so ever and wake up feeling great. The mattress contours to your body but supports the weight to keep you from sinking in too deep. It does a great job!

The company is extremely hard to contact. It's been a month or better and I have still not gotten my free sheets. Don't order any ancillary products until you're sure you're going to keep it as you cannot return them. Look at the return policy. More to it than advertised. I do love the bed but do not like the company at all.

My husband and I have researched a ton of mattresses and laid on countless ones before ultimately deciding on Purple. Our mattress arrived about two weeks ago. I'll admit I was skeptical. I couldn't quite figure out the pillow combo with it. The purple pillow isn't for me sadly. BUT the mattress is AMAZING. This past weekend we were traveling and slept on 3 different mattresses. I have never had the experience of missing my bed until then! I realized that in those past two weeks I no longer had back pain. After a few days of not being home and sleeping on others mattresses my back pain had returned! I'm a total believer now! If you are looking for an amazing night sleep and waking up feeling great this is the bed for you! LOVE IT!!!

Being a side sleeper, I have started to experience pain in my hips when I am asleep. Seeing advertisements that the purple was sleeping on a cloud, I had high hopes that this mattress would be the answer. Sadly, it wasn't. The mattress is a bit firmer than I anticipated and now I can add back pain to the list of discomfort. I will be returning this. On a positive note, the sheets are AMAZING!! Additionally, the customer service is TOP NOTCH!!

We got the original Purple mattress after having a major brand pillow top mattress for years. The Purple doesn't feel as soft as the pillow but that's ok. When you get in it seems more firm but more giving at the same time. It's also cooler and makes me sweat much less over night. Where I really notice the difference is in the morning I'm not sore like I used to be. I would buy again but probably save longer for the new 3" or 4" one

The first two nights were definitely a different sleep experience a little on the hard side but waking up with no back pain blew my mind and is making my days 1000× better! I'm now excited to climb into bed every night and rave to all my buddy's about how life changing this mattress has been for me. Give this mattress a chance, you won't be sorry.

We've been sleeping on our queen purple mattress for almost one month and we can both say we are in love (hubs says he wants to make love to this mattress.....) Anyways, after doing way too much research into other mattress brands and watching reviews on youtube about purple and wondering if they were paid off we decided to just try it for ourselves. Previously we were on a cheap foam/coil mattress with a memory foam topper and my arms would fall asleep in the middle of the night since I'm a side sleeper. Hubs suffers from back pain and wakes up periodically during the night and since he's awake he goes to the bathroom which then wakes me up and so on. The first week took some getting used to since it is a bit firm coming out of the bag, but your body adjusts and it loosens up a bit. Now we are both sleeping through the night (not going to the bathroom) and we wake up wondering when we fell asleep in the first place. Sleeping THROUGH the night instead of being woken up periodically makes a huge difference in the morning and throughout the day. People just don't realize it because they haven't experienced it yet. We purchased the mattress with the mattress frame and we couldn't be happier. Even the dog won't get off our bed. (purple: please make dog beds!) Just a side note: follow their advice and don't sell or get rid of your previous mattress until you get the shipping notice or you'll end up like us suffering for weeks on an AWFUL air mattress.
