I believe that the purple mattress is comfortable laying on but when waking up in the morning my back tends be to sore. I tried laying in the basic model at a store so I could see if I'd like it in person and I loved it. I went home and ordered a basic model in king size. Once I got it home it felt significantly more firm. I went back to the store to see if it was a different model but it wasn't, it was just a queen size. So I don't know if size would have a difference on how firm each mattress is, but I can say that the large basic model is more firm than the queen size basic model.

Great mattress. I have back issues that cause my fingers to go numb when I sleep and the purple mattress has brought a lot of relief. The first week was a little sore, but a good sore because things were finally able to shift to the RIGHT position. This was a fantastic investment.

I really, really wanted to love this bed. It is just not comfortable, both of us toss and turn every night and wake up absolutely exhausted. We purchased almost a year ago, coming from a worn-out innerspring. We kept the Purple because it was better than our sagging previous bed (ex. instead of taking 2 hours to fall asleep every night, it only takes 1). If you are a side sleeper, read A LOT of reviews and make sure this would be right for you. For comparison, we are 25 years old, 150-200 pounds with no medical considerations. First, there is the break-in period. This lasted almost 3 weeks for us. It felt like we had been in a car crash for the first week; we had soreness and aches all over from adjusting to the mattress. (By the way, DO NOT make the mistake of rotating the mattress once it is broken in =) ). Since that was to be expected per the website, we powered through and got to feeling less sore every day, though my shoulder sockets still crack every morning getting out of bed. It took going on vacation for a week to realize how sore and sleep-deprived we are on an every day basis since getting the Purple mattress. It somehow simultaneously feels not supportive enough, while not relieving pressure points enough, though the feel of the bed is on the firmer side. I would recommend that everyone take the Purple 30-day challenge seriously since it is such a unique material. Stay somewhere known for good bedding, like a Doubletree or Hilton hotel, to compare it to the Purple after the break-in period. I think this would be a great mattress for back sleepers who do not like innerspring or foam. But if you have ever been a diehard innerspring/foam/hybrid person, this may not be right for you. We will be going back to innerspring. However, we LOVE other Purple products, such as the platform base and the stretchy sheets, and will continue using them for other bedding.

When I first heard about this mattress, I was very skeptical because, let's face it, it's not the typical mattress. All other mattresses I've had in the past are too hot, too soft, or too hard. This one is perfect! I loved it from the first day and highly recommend it.

It took about 3 weeks to get accustomed to the new Purple mattress, but it was definitely worth the adjustment period. We purchased the Purple brand steel frame with the mattress, and the whole package is sag-free and very comfortable. I love the perfectly flat top surface. As advertised, the mattress eliminates pressure points and cradles everything so well. So far we are totally satisfied. Compared to a full wooden-frame bed, the Purple steel frame + mattress is easy to move around cramped spaces since there is no box spring involved, and the frame can be cut in half and flattened. Plus, the whole setup is less than 150 pounds, so compared to a wooden frame, box spring, and mattress, it is fairly light.

I'm 9, and I recently got a new purple mattress. It is amazing. I sleep really well, much better than on my old mattress. I even did the egg test and it worked. But my mom wasn't sure so she made me put plastic down before I sat on it. I didn't break the egg. It's basically the best mattress you'd ever get.

the first thing i noticed was the give and support of my body now understand i weigh 325 lbs and it fit like a glove and it did not matter if i was on my side or my back. then i felt the cooling sensation all night, i woke up feeling cool. the other thing i noticed is my pillow in the morning was not flat and that was because of the give of the Purple. I also did not wake up multiple times during the night. What an awesome product, i cannot wait for my wife to get up to get her reaction. I do not regret the purchase. Worth every penny, from our purchase my daughter and husband are ordering there Purple also.... It sells itself.....

I've had my purple for about a month. The first few nights were not as I expected, I thought I would sleep better than on my old mattress. I didn't have any change in sleep until about 3-5 days later. I'm more comfortable now snd don't sweat as before on a memory foam. I may exercise my 100 day return to get the purple 2, I have the original purple. My wife wants s stiffer edge. I'm fine the way it is, great product and easy set up. I recommend this mattress.

After 15 years on a Tempur-Pedic we needed a new mattress. We first tried the Loom and Leaf. That barely made it 30 days - hard as a rock. Then we tried the Leesa. Better but still after about 60 days we couldn't stand it anymore - my wife was waking up with numb limbs and a sore back and I wasn't much better. Enter the Purple. From the moment we put it on the bed we have been ecstatic. It has the right combination of a soft conforming top layer and the firm support underneath. It doesn't run hot at all but still gives a "hug" as you lay on it. The top purple layer is uneven so it has a different feel from standard mattresses (kind of similar to sleeping on one of the "egg crate" mattress pads) but you quickly get used to it and learn to appreciate it. I can't recommend Purple enough.

I got a queen mattress as well as the purple pillow and my quality of life just went up noticeably! So comfortable, It has a very unique feel to it, but took only 1 night to get used to it. Now other beds feel uncomfortable to me. My girlfriend loves it as well, and we can both get in and out of bed without waking each other up now.
