Did not work for my body shape

My husband and I bought this mattress a little more than a year ago, shortly after getting married and moving in together. He sleeps deeply and restfully pretty much on any surface and under any noise or light conditions, so no complaints on his part. I however, have insomnia, so achieving restful sleep takes a lot of tweaking of my environment, and it also doesn't help that I have back pain due to a herniated disc on my lower back, which is why I was excited about getting this mattress. I've always preferred firm mattresses because the soft ones cause a lot of pain in my back since they sink inwards and provide no support. This = restless nights. But the firm ones weren't perfect either, because while my hip and shoulders would make contact with the mattress, my waist would end up floating and it was kind of an awkward position. So all the advertising with Goldilocks and the "just right" mattress really spoke to me, I figured the Purple mattress would be ideal. But after a year and a half of sleeping on it, I can't say I'm pleased with my purchase, and I really regret it because it was very expensive and I can't afford to change our mattress. The main problem is: for my body type, it doesn't work as advertised. The largest part of my body is the hip and butt area, and that area tends to sink into the mattress, therefore not aligning my spine. If I lay flat on the mattress WITHOUT a pillow, it seems like it -could- work... but then my neck is floating unsupported, causing neck and shoulder pain. Back pain? No. Neck pain? Obviously. If I use a pillow that is firm and thick enough to support my neck (not super thick, only enough to sit between my neck and the mattress), it ends up also lifting my head enough that it raises my upper body along with it, therefore causing my hip area to sink even more than it already was (because again, it's the largest part of my body), therefore making me sink into the mattress just like soft mattresses used to. It's almost like a reclining position, but this downward posture puts a lot of pressure on my disc and also makes it so my waist often wakes up a little numb (I'm guessing because of lack of circulation from extended contact with the mattress? Not sure). Neck pain? No. Back pain? Horrible. I've also tried using a squishy pillow, smushed it around to get some support under the neck, placed it so that my head doesn't rest as much on the pillow so as to not add enough height that it messes with the alignment of the spine like the previous pillow did... that squishy pillow just isn't firm enough to support my neck. Back pain? No. Neck pain? Absolutely. And I've tried every other combination of soft plus firm pillow possible, with no success. So every night I go to bed and have to choose which kind of pain I'll have that night, pain on my lower back, or pain on my neck. In addition to not being able to afford a new mattress, I also can't afford to try every super advanced, $40 pillow on the market, in hopes that at least one of them would work. So yeah, my husband loves it, no complaints, but I personally wouldn't recommend it because my body type did not align with the mattress as advertised. Might've been "just right" for Goldilocks, but not for me. Lastly, as for the supposed cooling effect and airflow of the mattress, neither of us have experienced anything of the sort, even sleeping with the AC and the fan on, and with nice sheets made out of this sporty cooling fabric. But there's two more variables to take into account 1) our bed has drawers underneath it, so no airflow, 2) the floor is carpeted (can't help it, apartment). So yeah, no cooling at all, but it may be partially due to our environmental conditions.

Awesome Mattress

I was hesitant to purchase another mattress in a bag, as the previous mattress in a bag I owned did not fully plump out and was not as comfortable as I thought it would be. I was pleasantly surprised with how plump this mattress got and it is COMFORTABLE! I am happy I purchased this mattress and highly recommended it! It was packaged well, easy to set up (although it is HEAVY), the mattress cover and sheets are very soft and high quality. Buy this mattress!!

Very Pleased

Although it hasn't solved every ache I've ever had, I don't think that's the fault of the mattress. My wife and I have been very pleased, especially with how cool we sleep. This has long been a problem for us, and the Purple is by far the coolest mattress I've ever owned.

Perfect for hot sleepers

I decided to try this mattress because memory foam was no longer comfortable for me. This mattress is the perfect blend of soft and supportive, I also have the pillow. It's great for hot sleepers, it's so cool and just as comfortable on my side and on my stomach. Love this mattress

Great Choice

I had researched new, web based mattresses for some time. I cam acrossed purple and was really excited about it, it sound like want I needed. I held off on the purchase and continued to research and read reviews. Both of Purple and other options. I purchase purple around 2 months ago. It has been a very good mattress for us. The first few nights, I was a little sore, but I could tell it was just my body adjusting to a fully supportive mattress. As our previous mattress was around 10 years old and sagged a lot. After about 3 nights, the slight pain in morning stopped and I haven't had issues since. I highly recommend the Purple Mattress.

The Best Mattress Ever!!!

I am an extremely hot sleeper and continuously wake up drenched in sweat I can honestly say that ever since sleeping on the Purple Mattress (with the Purple Sheets) I have not had one sweaty night! I have also had back surgery and still continue to suffer through back pains and this mattress has helped me sleep through the night with less pain. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with this purchase and would recommend the Purple Mattress to anyone!

The Purple Mattress

I moved to my girlfriend's house and her mattress was losing its form, without mentioning how hard it was. Over time we started to feel more tired when waking up, but it was until my sister in law came over to our house and she slept on our bed for a week. She could not stop wondering how we slept all that time on that mattress. I had seen bunch of Purple adds over the web, but because there was no store where I could try one, I was kind of skeptical. We decided to pull the trigger on The Purple Mattress because it had 100 nights trial and money back guaranteed. Needles to say best decision we ever taken, this mattress should be the closes to sleeping on the clouds, now I can't imagine sleeping on another mattress, or even how good the more expensive options they have would feel. Don't hesitate and buy one, you won't regret it!!

Mattress started dipping 1 year in, now giving me back pains

They were kind enough to send me a replacement but I don't know if I can trust foam mattresses anymore. They all seem to dip 1-2 years in. I guess that's why Purple decided to release a new mattress with springs because they last much longer. However I do really like how cool it sleeps so it's hard for me to get most other mattresses.

No more sore back and hips!

The technology made so much sense when we were doing our research on all these different online mattress companies. After the first night we were hooked. No more soreness in my back and hips from the spring mattress and my cervical pillows actually felt like they worked because the rest of my spine is in alignment. I have scoliosis so I needed something supportive and this mattress changed my life!

Loving it!

Oh my gosh, this bed is wonderful! I have been having issues sleeping for months now due to a bad hip which causes my back to hurt as well. I have spent many nights rolling - feeling like a rotisserie chicken, just trying to find a comfortable position. The first night on it I sat down on it and thought "wow, this is interesting". I slept pretty good. The second night, I slept fabulous! After a week of sleeping on it, I no longer feel like a rotisserie chicken rolling all night to find a comfortable position!!! Thank you Purple for giving me my sleep back!
