I have health issues related with my neck and shoulders and sleeping is an absolute necessity to bring the pain down, but an absolute nightmare because it hurts to lay on my shoulder and I am a side sleeper who can't seem to sleep otherwise. I got this because of the 'return if you don't like it' factor (albeit I have NO idea how they expected me to return it, you get it in this tiny bag and there's NO way to put it back in without a shrink wrapper....) and I absolutely love it. My shoulder doesn't absolutely ache in the morning and laying down at night feels nice. Honestly, it feels like you're laying on a batch of cellulite at first when you sit on it, then you lay and get comfortable and it just feels amazing. I can't stand jersey style sheets (which is what the bamboo ones seem to be) so I'm glad we have the deep pocket style sheets which allows me to sink in just fine. I wish I would have gotten the seat cushion instead of the pillow though. Otherwise, I recommend this bed whole heartedly!

I was waking up to lower back pain each morning with my old mattress. Since sleeping on the Purple Bed my morning back pain is now gone. I am a side sleeper and I was worried from reading other reviews that the Purple Bed might be a little to firm. To my pleasant surprise, I have not had any issues with side sleeping on my Purple Bed.

We have slept on a VERY firm mattress for years and were waking up sore. The Purple mattress was more firm than I expected, but when we woke up after our first night on it, we were not sore. We have been sleeping on it for about two months and are happy with our purchase. We also got the Purple Platform and we like that too--it really doesn't squeak, which was the main reason we bought it.

As soon as my husband and I got this unpacked and I tried it out I knew I was going to LOVE it. The first couple nights my back was a bit sore but after about a week the pain ceased and I started falling in love. I will say it does take some getting used to, I tend to move around a lot at night turning from side to side and at first it was kind of hard to lift my body up to actually turn over compared to my old hard mattress but now that I'm used to it I really love it and tend not to toss and turn so much. It has a refreshing cool feel to it too so you stay warm but you dont get too hot. I was concered that purchasing this on the Internet without trying it wasn't the best choice but I'm glad I did. I love the bed and would recommend it! You can't go wrong, if it's not for you, you're able to send it back for a refund!

I have aches in my knees, shoulders, neck and lower back. I toss and roll a lot at night chasing away aches. After my first night on the Purple mattress, the sheets looked like I hadn't moved all night. First time in three decades. Now I get that sleep every night. Wonderful.

Warning! This mattress will spoil you! I have been sleeping purple for over a month now and I am so happy that the advertising and reviews were spot on. I am a side sleeper and always woke up sore at my hips and shoulders, not anymore! Thank you Purple People. Recently I took a camping trip and could not sleep very good because I was not sleeping Purple! You guys need to make a portable mattress! Thank you again for a wonderful product that has helped me actually get a good night's sleep.

Love our bed! The extra space under the base is awesome! the mattress, our backs have not hurt when we get up and i have had back surgery, and have a metal plate in my back.. i also love my seat cushion makes road trips possible.. and the sheets are well worth the money.. i am happy with all of my purchases..

although i havent noticed any reduced pain i do however feel pretty comfortable in this bed - and the sheets that come with it are amazing - i didnt give it the full excellent since we havent had it that long - the package arrival was a little strange to say the least - the fed ex driver couldnt even move it so we had to help her unload it - it is very heave and awkward to say the least

We have had this mattress for a week now, and I have to say that it was the best decision we ever made! Before we got this mattress, my back hurt pretty consistently between my shoulders now matter what I did, I have woke up every morning with no pain and actually feeling rested! My husband couldn't sleep on his back without it hurting, and he tossed and turned and snored, but after a week on this mattress he has slept on his back with out pain every night and his snoring has reduced significantly. It is advertised that the mattress has a neutral temp, which is pretty true for the most part. Before this mattress I would wake up in the middle of the night, hot, sweating (even in the middle of winter), but with this mattress I still get a little warm, but I haven't woke up sweating like I did with our old mattress. We have both slept so much better, we don't normally sleep in past 6 or 6:30 am because of pain and the last 3 mornings we haven't woke up til around 7 am because this mattress is so comfortable. We also got the original purple pillows (the heavy ones) and they are great! This mattress is fantastic and we highly recommend it!

I did my research on all the competing mattresses I could buy online and the purple ended up meeting everything I was looking for. Fast forward to now and it's an ok mattress. It isn't mind blowing. Yes it's pretty cool to the touch but my back and neck have been hurting more since I got it. I'm still going to give it time since it hasn't been the full month so we'll see.
