Sort of still figuring out how to sleep on it without my arm going numb or getting shoulder pain. Almost a combo of side and stomach sleeping seems the best.. I love the height of the pillow but doesn't really provide enough support between my arm and head and usually why my arm falls asleep.

Loving the mattress. I'm 6'2" and 215 lbs. and a side sleeper. My only minor complaint is occasionally it feels like my hip bottoms out not miserable but just enough to notice it especially compared to weightless feeling of weightlessness of the rest of the bed. Overall I'd recommend and and I'd buy it again. Such a comfortable bed compared to anything else I've slept on.

I'm not a fan of the mattress. It was really fun to open but when I️ started sleeping on it I found out that this material is not for a side sleeper. The mattress leaves the square shape pattern on my back even with the padded sheets. But.... my wife loves it... nuff said. P.S if you can please send some of the material samples (squares) my kids love the one you sent.

So long story short my mattress which is a cal king was a month late getting to me due to shipping damage on my first mattress. Having slept on it for two weeks now it is a life changer. It was a life changer night one, when I woke up well rested and with no pains. I am a stomach sleeper and I used to never sleep through the night, now I do every night! I have all the purple products because of how fabulous they all are! The Harmony pillows, soft stretch sheets and the weighted blanket combined are my ultimate sleep aids! I couldn't of asked for anything better. Well except maybe not waiting a month to use them all together!!

This is definitely not like any traditional mattress I've used before. It's very comfortable. There's a certain springyness to the top layer, and a solid foamy layer beneath that. When I lay down for bed, I find myself saying "holy crap this is a comfortable mattress".

Initally I compared the mattress to all of the other online & store brands, but i kept on coming back to purple.. Finally i made the purchase and for the first 2 days i slept well. On the third day i woke up with some backaches. I thought it was from a hard day of work. I now have realized its because i sleep on my stomach with my hands under my head or on my side. It got so bad one night that it woke me out of my sleep and i had to sit on the couch with my feet up on the ottoman. I've read online to make sure your sheets are correct because tight sheets will hinder the mattress' capabilities. Sorry to say i have the same results. IIt's a shame because i had really high hopes for purple.

Have had the original queen purple and it's alto more stiff than I was expecting.from the adds and comments I was reviewing I expected way better.wake up with soar ribs in the morning find myself switching sides through the night, not what I expected for the money purple!

This mattress gives quite a bit to direct pressure but stays firm if it is spread out. If you are young have back problems are a back sleeper I think you would like this bed. Two things that are a must 1) Buy the Stretchy Sheets 2) Do not use a Mattress Pad (use the one Purple sells. I am older and have joint pain and so I found this mattress to be a little too firm. Also small women don't weigh enough to sink in and so it may be to firm for them. When I was younger I believe I would have loved this mattress but not at my age now.

I felt like I was beaten up for the first couple of days and that very next day 4-5 days in my lower back never felt better. I do a lot of walking at my job and when your back isn't hurting your mood is much better. Love the Purple mattress and although I am still waiting on my sheets, 4 weeks in, the mattress is still wonderful.

I may try the ulimate. There are a few problems for me. With the cover on, the pad was too small and ended mid-thigh on my chair. I have super long longs from hip to knee. This actually cut off the circulation to my legs causing all kinds of pain. Next we took the cover off which allowed the cushion to spread out on the chair better, but then my bony butt bones pressed into the holes. Even though it was more comfortable without the cover, it caused my tailbone to hurt. I'm hoping the cut-out in the ultimate along with the smaller squares will work for me. We've decided to not try the bed due to the difference in comfort between having the cover on or off, similar to what sheets would do. I hope this review will help someone else choose the right pad for them.
