I've been sleeping on a competitors's mattress for just over 2 years. Though it was fine, it never felt as comfy as I wanted. I decided to try the Purple sight unseen and from the first night I knew this was exactly the mattress I was looking for. It has just the right amount of cush that I was looking for. My hips don't hurt as I am a side sleeper. I turn over with ease. I truly love my new Purple mattress.

I've had my Purple King mattress for a little over a month now and my back pain isn't as bad as it used to be. I'm 25 and always hunched over at work so I would always have really bad aches in my lower back sleeping on my old mattress. Purple is a lot more firm than what I was expecting but it is incredibly comfortable. I'm not waking up at night as much anymore, either. Overall I think this mattress is very worth the price, and I love the base that you can purchase for it which is tall and great for storing things under.

This is an update to a previous review I made of The New Purple Mattress 2. If I were writing this update alone, it would be more of a 2.5, but my husband still loves the mattress, so it gets a boost from his 5. At first, I loved it as much as he still does. My back pain went away, and I was waking up feeling less tired. As time has gone on, though, I started waking up before I needed to. At first, I thought it was just because I was getting a better rest and so was just not needed to sleep as long. But, I have been waking increasingly earlier. Now, it's up to over an hour before I need to. In addition to waking earlier, I wake up several times in the night to flip to my other side because the shoulder and hip of the side that I fell asleep on hurts. Then, I wake up again with the second shoulder and hip hurting and flip again, then I wake that more than an hour before I need to with that first shoulder and hip (now slept on twice) burning with pain. For a while, I would lie on my back at that point, but I'm not normally a back sleeper, and so can't go to sleep. Plus, my lower back started hurting from lying on my back for that last hour or so in bed, so now I just get up after I woken a third time in the night, no matter what time it is. My husband has been tossing and readjusting more in his sleep as well, but it hasn't woken him, and he doesn't have the pressure point pain. I, on the other hand, feel like I've been camping for a couple months.

Holy heavy mattress! Well constructed. Definitely get help to set it up. I had a lot of back problems before we bought this mattress. One of the main reasons we bought it. Well, been sleeping on it 2 weeks and still have back problems. So much for a cure all. However, after sleeping on this mattress I can get right out of bed. Before, I had to get out of bed in stages as my spine conceded to the fact that it needed to go another direction. Now the only reason to stay in bed, is because I want to or allowed to by the little ones. I have had some mornings where I woke up sweaty, but not many. Those nights were with a set of jersey knit sheets. We put Purple sheets on it last night. I woke up cool as James Dean this morning. I love this bed. I just read Jared Bowers review. It is about the same, except I bought more sheets, I am shorter, we have a dog, no cat, and a lot less PTSD. As a disabled veteran, this is a Godsend. Like the title said AHHHHHHHHHHHHSOME!

I am a 6' male weighing 157 lbs-broad shoulders 33 waist, 39 hips. I am a side sleeper.After 2 wks with the Purple mattress, I have not been able to get through the night on it-too much pain in the hip. Seems to bottom out where hip bone contacts the bed. I have tried with a regular cotton sheet and with no bottom sheet all. Neither works.

To begin, it is heavy! I needed a new bed frame to support it. No problem there. My wife and I have chronic pain in various joints. This mattress took most of them away straightaway! When I travel, I miss this mattress so much. No high end foam or coil mattress can touch the all night comfort I get from this. When either person, or the large dogs, move no one is disturbed. It's the most comfortable I've ever been in my life and I would not hesitate to buy another. We are thinking of getting and RV and unilaterally decided this mattress will be in it!! I will say that after 5 year, there are no indents, no smushing of the filling, the purple grid or slouching of any kind. It is as responsive and comfy as the day we got it!

I am not in the habit of writing reviews, but this mattress has impressed me so much that I felt I owe it to the Purple folks to share what I have learned. My partner and I are in our early sixties. She suffers from very progressed degenerative disc disease. I suffered numerous crush injuries (including a crushed pelvis) in a car accident thirty years ago. Obviously we have some aches and pains. We were in need of a new mattress. So I set about doing the research to find one that might actually give us a tiny bit of relief. If in fact a mattress could actually help that sort of thing. I was not a "believer" at that point. I read product descriptions and reviews until my eyes were crossed and I felt I had sufficient information to make my choice. Buying a mattress sight unseen and untested was a big sticking point, but I got past it and ordered the Original Purple Mattress/queen size. It arrived in a surprisingly short time and was put in place and in business. The first morning I asked my partner how she felt. With a bit of a puzzled look she said, "I honestly think my back feels a bit better than usual." That spoke volumes to me. She isn't the type to rush to judgement. I knew I had gotten out of bed and could immediately straighten up. That bordered on shocking, but I wasn't allowing myself to get excited. Over a week later, this morning I asked again. How do you feel? Could you rate this mattress on a scale of 1 to 10? With zero hesitation, she said, "12". SHE SAID "12"!!! Remember I said she isn't one to rush to judgement. Personally, I have gone from pain waking almost everytime I move, to sleeping 3 or 4 hours at a time. Nothing short of a gift from Heaven. There is another major bonus feature to this mattress. My partner, for years, has had wicked night sweats. That has been very much diminished. Another gift from Purple Heaven. So...while this is very early in our experience with the Original Purple Mattress, I/we could not be more impressed. Hopefully, our sleep will continue to improve and our pain decrease. I don't know what more one could ask of a mattress. In my opinion, I made the perfect choice of mattress for us and it was money well spent. Thank you Purple.

I honestly didn't know what to expect. Being a stomach sleeper has caused me years of bearly now ring back pain and infinite position changes throughout the night. Memory foam mattresses don't do it for me bc changing positions becomes harder and harder bc I feel stuck. It is sooo easy to move side to side with Purple and my pressure points are always accommodated no matter how I'm positioned. I love it!

My wife and I bought the original version and it's just not as soft as I had hoped. If you like a firmer mattress this would be a good choice, if you like a softer mattress I would get the 4" version (if you have the money) or a different brand. I still wake up every morning with back pain. I'm strongly thinking about sending it back and trying a Casper or ghost bed.

Good back support but not at all happy with its supposed "temperature neutral" abilities. Every day that I wake up I can feel my body heat on the mattress even for 30 mins after I have removed my self from the bed. If you're looking for a cool nights sleep this is not it. I'm highly considering returning. Very sad because I had high hopes for the mattress but it just isn't doing it for me.
