The bed is very very firm. It caused me pinched nerves in my back, 3 weeks out of work and multiple chiropractor trips. I can't even sleep in my room. I bought their pillows and sheets as recommend, and nothing helped. If you're looking for something stiff I would recommend this.

It's probably too early for me to provide an accurate review of our purple mattress due to the fact we have been sleeping on it for only two weeks, but in these first few days, there is no doubt both my better-half and I are sleeping better. Where the concern comes in has to do with how one's body adjusts to new bedding. Unlike Select Comfort beds which we were seriously considering until I came face-to-face with YOUR Goldilocks, we were almost totally committed to buying one of their beds. Your company's 100-night guarantee and lower price is what caused me to reconsider. (Without a doubt, your infomercial had an equal impact on my buying decision.) A company who doesn't take themselves too seriously, but emphasizes customer satisfaction wins my heart, mind and soul everytime! I love how you go about educating your audience on the benefits of owning a purple sleep system, while only grazing your competition. (Another effective tactic in marketing. I don't like the "Buy our product, we're better than Joe Schmoe's down the street!" without going into what makes your product better than all the rest.) Your marketing campaign hits all the right notes and in the perfect key too. Now for the hard part. I am still not sure we are going to keep our purple. Time will tell. But even if we should end up donating it to charity and sending you the proof so we can get our money back if we're not satisfied, your attention to appealing to your potential customers and their needs, your communication and ease of order, to your partnership with FedEx and their second-to-none tracking system, to your following up in the first days and now weeks, makes this whole experience one I can safely say is amazing! Just based on my experience to date, I will DEFINITELY recommend "Purple" to anyone who quizzes me on your product and service. I look forward to your next query on our still developing opinion of your product. Perry Norflus

I purchased the Queen size mattress and the mattress stand. I recommend a helper with setting up due to the weight of the mattress. I have recurring back/nerve pain from an auto accident. My back always...ALWAYS feels better after a night on the purple. I've had it for 3 weeks and I'm not giving it back!!

I really wanted to like this mattress. I got a few good nights of sleep on it but less than 2 months of having it, I started experiencing major hip and back pain. I had a really old mattress before and I was never had pain like I did on the Purple. It also slept VERY hot. So hot that I would wake up in the middle of the night in a pool of sweat. I followed all of the recommendations; the platform base, stretchy sheets, mattress cover. I gave it two stars because your customer service is great.

I've never owned a new mattress before and was previously sleeping on air mattresses, couches, and cots for almost 10 years. This mattress changed my life, within the first couple of days my back, neck, and shoulder pain was significantly reduced (I also got a set of the harmony pillows and those are awesome too). It is a relatively firm bed but it's exactly what I wanted, I honestly think it's best for back sleepers but I've slept side and stomach before and it's just fine too.

Before I got the mattress I was thinking MAYBE I would get used to it within the time they recommend. I was very skeptical that it was as great as they said. I don't exaggerate... I'm a stickler for describing things exactly as they are... so, I'm not exaggerating when I say that pain in my back was gone the NEXT day; pain that had been there to different degrees of intensity for a long time. It is so comfortable. It feels soo good. We stayed in a hotel a few days after we got it and I missed it. I look forward to getting into bed every night. My overall joint pain (hips, shoulders, back) is not GONE... but it is significantly reduced and again, was noticeably different the very first night. I would recommend it to anyone... how can you go wrong with the money back guarantee?

My husband and I realized our back pain is gone after two weeks of sleeping on this mattress. It's a great mattress and are so happy we took the plunge and tried it. We're were disappointed at how long it took to get to us. Ordered it on a Sunday and didn't get it until the following Monday. It's ahipped ground. Other than that it's been wonderful. Not too firm/not too soft. Just right!!

I was a bit skeptical & wasn't sure what to expect from a mattress that shows up in a box on your doorstep - Well, I was pleasantly surprised! This is definitely the most comfortable mattress I have ever laid upon! (And the easiest mattress I've ever carried up a set of stairs!) So easy to setup and my daughter has slept SO well since sleeping on her Purple mattress! I plan to get a Purple mattress for me too! Highly Recommend!!!!

My posture feels so much better since getting this bed. My sleep has improved ten fold. I actually feel like I have more energy throughout the day and get this, I'm a huge snorer and I stopped completely. My girlfriend thinks its due to the purple pillows. You used to hear me sleeping and now ya dont. Incredible!

My husband and I have been sleeping with what we thought was a comfortable Tempur-pedic Mattress for the last 12 years, but it was time for a new mattress. The quirky Purple Mattress commercials initially sparked my interest in Purple Mattress, and then I explored further into the science of hyper-elastic polymers and the reported advantages that Purple Mattress offers. After watching several videos, I took the leap and ordered a new mattress and a purple pillow. My report: Smell - slight chemically smell that my husband dislikes, but far less than the Tempur-pedic mattress we bought 12 years ago. I haven't found this problematic, but we have been allowing air to circulate in the bedroom to further outgas the bed. Sleep Temperature: The Purple mattress definitely sleeps cooler than a Tempur-pedic mattress, a feature I quite enjoy as I tend to be a hot sleeper. Firmness and Support: The level 3 Purple is supposed to be the "middle" firmness and it definitely feels firmer than the "medium" firmness offered by the Tempur-pedic mattress. My husband describes it as sleeping on firm Jello. I find that the mattress conforms to the contour of my side sleeping profile without uncomfortable pressure points. The Tempurpedic mattress, tended to slump into a big hole and you sometimes felt trapped. Overall, much better support and relief from pressure points but it will take some getting used to in order to adjust to the firmness. Weight: Both the mattress and the pillow are quite heavy; particularly the pillow. It is of a weight that discourages you from moving it throughout the night. On the other hand, it gives me much better neck comfort so I do not need to adjust its position often. Final Review: Overall, I consider the Purple Mattress to be a significant upgrade and is by far, the most comfortable mattress that I have owned.
