On the fence

Still on the fence about keeping this mattress. It is just not what I expected. I watched tons of YouTube videos and read all the rave reviews. The one thing nobody mentions is how it feels to lay on it. By no means is it uncomfortable, but the way it's designed to contour to your body for maximum support, it misses giving you that soft bed feeling. I was expecting to feel like I was laying on a high end resort bed, a bed I don't ever want to get out of. The purple mattress doesn't make me feel that way. I am sleeping cooler on the purple mattress. The bed is not cold, it just does a great job at dispersing the heat. The packaging the bed comes in is fantastic, but I do have gripe. Why isn't the mattress flipped, then rolled up, at the factory. The way it's rolled up, you have to flip it over once it's unrolled, which is no easy task since the bed is flexible and heavy. I had pretty high expectations for this mattress. I'm just not sure it meets those.

So comfortable

Very comfortable for different sleepers. Husband prefers a firm mattress and I prefer less firm and this mattress is perfect for us both. Receiving the mattress by delivery was pretty painless and putting it all together (with the frame) was fairly easy.

1 month review of the P3 ultimate

So far, so "meh". Before we purchased this mattress, I purchased the chair cushion and lumbar support just to see how the grid system worked (and if the cushions worked as advertised). I haven't used the actual cushion much as it makes me sit too high on my office chair, but did notice that both it and the lumbar cushion make you sweat - a lot. And the reason for this is the grid collapses as it supports, so there is zero air flow through the grid. As far as comfort, they work nominally well. Our old mattress was a pseudo-memory foam affair that lasted exactly 2 years before it decided it was going to collapse in the middle as most do. Our previous mattress was a coil spring which did the same thing (we, as a couple, are not overly large people.. just sayin'). So, I thought a hybrid might do the job, and we sat on a P3 at a local retail store and it seemed to have "all the right moves". We ordered one. We're figuring with the 3 month warranty from the retail store and the 10 year through Purple our butts would literally be covered. The first week or so there was a pungent odor that weirdly I was only able to detect - and it was more a taste thing than anything else. It's somewhat dissipated now, but still occasionally get a whiff. Mattress movement with a partner isn't too much an issue - it does creditably well there. My main issue is actually sleeping close to the edge (a queen, and giving my partner some room), the edge will actually collapse, almost spilling me off the bed. Purple needs a solid band around the edge of their grids, maybe 2" wide and as deep as the grid to keep this from happening. As for sleeping comfort... yeah, it's ok. I don't think it's as 'cool' as they tout it to be (to the touch), but I'm not sweating, either. My arms will occasionally fall asleep if I'm on my side, but they'll do that in other places as well so I can't directly blame the mattress. The mattress itself is bouncy, I'm sure directly related to the grid gel. And you can feel the grid through the top cover of the mattress. It's not annoying, just one of those oh.. there's one kind of thing. I think Purple could step up the technology with the gel formation - I feel a "foamed" version of this gel - open cell, very loose foam (think soap bubbles) would be the next logical step as something like that could easily support the same amount of weight, be more breathable and provide the same support.

Great for paraplegics

After an auto accident, my paraplegic son has been bedridden for over a year convalescing. He could not perform conventional pressure releases from his gel mattress, resulting in life-threatening pressure sores. We purchased the conventional Purple mattress in early summer and since noticed the sores were healing more quickly . We recently added the power base, and that has really been the clincher. Now that he can adjust the bed, he can more easily eliminate pressure points with the press of a button. It has become much easier for him to transfer in and out of bed. Best of all, his pressure sores are nearly healed after only a few months on the Purple bed! I truly believe Purple saved my son's life. Oh, did I mention how comfortable it is? Daddy wants a Purple, too!

I Love My New Purple Mattress.

I purchased the Twin XL for the adjustable base I already owned. My memory form mattress was 5 years old and just didn't seem to give the support I need. The new Purple mattress is so great. It is firmer than I expected but I like firm and the support is really great. It adjust on the base I have and the vibration is felt too. So glad I made this purchase. And the FREE sheets that came with it are so soft and comfortable.

Long period of adjustment

At first I could only sleep on this mattress for a few hours a night. It felt like sleeping on concrete, it was so firm! This lasted three weeks. Now I can sleep through the night and it would appear I'm finally used to it. It still feels a bit too firm. The two standard memory foam mattresses I had before this also started out too firm and then became too soft with pits in the middle. I don't think I'll have that problem with the Purple. I still have hope that we will get used to each other.

Best purchase I've ever made for myself

I researched the mess out of mattresses before making this decision. Some were literally 10x what I paid for Purple and some were similar in form and function. Based on other reviews and having friends that let us lay on theirs, we put the order in. I expected a steep learning curve. I've had trouble sleeping (took over an hour to fall asleep every night) for years and have awakened every morning with back and joint pain for the last few. I'm a large man, sleep hot and a stomach sleeper so I wanted something that worked with all those things. Night #1 - I don't remember shifting around and tossing and turning at all. I also don't remember falling asleep - which is to say all the things I usually think about as I'm falling asleep. And... I rolled out of bed with no back pain. I've already talked three friends into buying one - seriously, there needs to be a referral program!!! I'm your best salesman! We are finishing week #4 on it and every night but one was exactly like that. (Too much on my mind that one night) Icing on the cake? My wife and I just returned home from an overnight anniversary trip to a ritzy hotel that bragged about their beds. I tossed and turned and my back hurts! I can't wait to sleep in my Purple tonight. For my wife, I'd say this. She had a tougher time the first few nights adjusting to it, but still woke up with no back pain or soreness. She's a back/side sleeper. She loves it now after getting used to it. Yes, I'd buy it again. In a heartbeat.

Best Mattress EVER!

Cannot describe what it feels like to sleep on the mattress other than amazing! We thought we would try the mattress and return it if not satisfied. After the first night, we were hooked! Did not wake up in the middle night with pressure point pains. The only draw back is having to get out of the comfy goodness each morning. Not sure how, but the sheets make it all the more comfy.

Believe the Hype

Yes! It is truly an AMAZING mattress. I have several spine dislocations and usually don't sleep straight through the night. However after several nights on the purple mattress, I sleep straight through and awaken well rested. There is also no noise or movement when I lay down. So even if your spouse is asleep you won't awaken him/her. Great job purple!

No, you can't take my Purple.

I'm keeping it. I love its feel. Great support and soft at the same time. Unique. Different than foam. Gathers around closely to anything that touches it. I'm sleeping better and want to spend more time in it. I couldn't handle cutting the bag it comes in so I succeeded at getting it out without cutting. What a bag.....! I now have no clue how to use it but it seems a waste to waste it. Great bed. Reasonable price.
