I am writing this review after only one night on my Purple mattress... I AM IN LOVE!!! A little background on me. I am a single (mention that cause I sleep alone not for dating purposes lol) 30 y/o male, 5'8", 190 lbs (more muscle than fat) stomach sleeper. I am an Army Vet and an RN in an ER (more on that later). First, to address the picture of the Purple blade. I don't know if I was just excited and wasn't taking my time, but I got the under portion (not pictured) of the safety blade under the plastic and as I was straddling the mattress I was cutting down and between my legs, as I was going along the plastic piece broke and the blade went right into my thumb!!! :( Now, I am not blaming Purple for this. I should have been cutting away from my body and did it a little safer, but I still wanted to put that in the review so future buyers can learn from my silly mistake....and so you don't get blood on your pretty new white mattress (luckily I didn't). Anyways, the Army, working in healthcare, being a stomach sleeper, and when I was overweight (260 lbs) has put a number on my lower back. I started working out more and lost over 70 lbs and STILL had back pains. So I started doing research for a new mattress. I previously slept on a cheap no-name inner-spring mattress that was several years old. I found that what I needed was a firmer mattress that maintained my spinal alignment - enter Purple. Love at first sight (lay down). I haven't had a full night of straight sleep in years!!! I constantly have to try to lay on my back with a pillow under my thighs to take the pressure off my lower back (a position that is IMPOSSIBLE for me to sleep in) or lay on my side with a pillow between my legs; eventually going back to my stomach and waking in pain. Last night was probably the best night of sleep I have ever had!!! I will say that I am still a little achy and it is my thought that I will still need some time for my body to adjust to the mattress as my spine has been out of wack for years. Purple even stated this in its instruction paper that some people need up to 30 days to fully adjust, so I am optimistic that the pain will subside completely in that timeframe. Purple is exactly as advertised and has exceeded my expectations. The mattress cradles my body perfectly in the correct areas without a feeling of sinking, stays cool (I also sleep hot), and just feels like my spine is in perfect alignment which creates it's famous "floating" sensation. I just cannot state enough how happy I am with this mattress and I would highly recommend it for stomach sleepers. I saw Purple's other options with a taller purple grid and all the other bells and whistles, but I stayed with OG mattress as it is my interpretation that this was the firmest options they offered. Very satisfied with my selection. I hope this review was helpful. Definitely recommend doing your own research, read reviews, watch videos via YouTube with multiple people, and see what is the best option for you (and your spouse if applicable), but I definitely recommend Purple for my fellow stomach sleepers and it even feels great in the other positions. If you're considering it, go for it! You spend 1/3 of your entire life sleeping. Treat yourself!!! Oh and my dog loves it too lol

While it did take a few days to become accustomed to the support of the Purple mattress, once accustomed to it I can honestly say there is not another mattress like a Purple mattress. I used to wake up sore and in awkward positions but with the Purple mattress I sleep soundly through the night without moving.

Hi. I purchased a mattress for myself. Give it a week or two to adjust. Back pain after many years went away!!! Husband wasn't convinced. Lol. Just ordered him one cause he tried mine and he liked it!!! Ps the chair cushion works great in my car seat.

I am so in love with my Purple Mattress. I am 32 weeks pregnant with twins and I would not be getting what minimal sleep I am without it. It helps so much with my back and hip pains. I love love love this mattress and recommend it to everyone I know!

My experience with the Purple mattress (as well as my spouse's) has been mixed. On the one hand my quality of sleep is great. I am not waking up in the middle of the night at all and sleep straight through. On the other hand I do not feel comfortable when I wake up. We both have been sore in the mornings and we feel it in different parts of the body- spine, hip, low back. This pain is perplexing to me since we've been sleeping well, and we've never experienced soreness on our other mattresses. It's been a few weeks now and not getting better.

Have been sleeping on the king size Purple matttress for 2 weeks and find that it is cool and comfortable. I am a back and side sleeper and my husband is a side and stomach sleeper and it works for both us. Mattress is 5 to 6 on the firmness scale. Ordering was easy and the mattress arrived quickly. Easy to unroll but will definitely require 2 persons to move. Would recommend to any sleeper.

The original is not for 250+ pound side sleepers. I wore my hip area down. I Purple stood behind their product and warranty replaced it. I never opened the new one though. I really would like to swap it and the difference in price for want I really need a Purple 4.

On the second or third night after we got the Purple mattress, my wife slept through the night for the first time in months! Normally she would get up in the night and go and sleep on our recliner in the living room because her back would hurt. Not anymore! What a wonderful thing, thanks Purple!

We absolutely LOVE our new purple bed and have been spreading the word about it's comfort ever since we purchased it. I have not awakened with a back ache since sleeping on this amazing bed. My son is purchasing one this month. Amazing technology and your marketing is pure genius!

I love my purple mattress original. I have bought it over two years ago and I STILL find myself laying on it saying I love my mattress! TWO YEARS!! When is the last time you loved a mattress for two years SOLID. Everyone I show my mattress to falls in love with it as well. I have become a Purple customer for life. The only thing that purple needs to work on is their pillows. The first and second generation pillows lack something to be desired. I have not had a chance to try Purple's newest pillow, but one day I will. The purple sheets/protector are both a must! they feel like sleeping in your favorite t-shirt while being hugged in a fluffy blanket. I have and will continue to buy sheets from purple. I would love to rate Purple mattresses at 6/5, the pillows as 3.5/5, purple sheets/protector 4.5/5 (I had a set of sheet rip a hole once, but purple replaced them with no hassle instantly. Only reason sheets lost half a point)!
