I had been experiencing some lower back issues and knew that my mattress was a likely culprit in my inability to get better. I haven't upgraded my mattress in quite some time, and I knew that I needed to make a change soon. I consider myself a frequent online shopper, but there are some things I hesitate to buy online if I can't try it out in person. A mattress was on that list. Cue: Purple marketing. I came across a Purple ad on Facebook about a year prior, and ever since then, I considered myself obsessed (yep, you got me). The marketing was cute and very creative, but I was trying to not let that influence my practical side. Did I really want to spend that much on a mattress that I couldn't even try out in person? I know it came with a 100 night trial, but who wants to go through buying a mattress, trying it out, dealing with its heftiness, and returning it. Not me. So after much research - reading online reviews, watching too many videos to name, and comparing pros and cons against other mattresses, AND an incident that left me with a couple of pinched nerves, I went for it. I bought the queen purple mattress (although, I wish I would have gotten the king), as well as the associated platform frame. The process to purchase was so incredibly easy, and the updates I received on shipping and tracking were fantastic. I am going to be honest, the day it arrived, I had very high expectations. I was expecting it to completely change my life. Not only was it going to make my back feel better, I was going to sleep cooler and not feel anything when my partner turned over. It may as well have been made of gold, as far as I was concerned. Well, I have to say that after a month and a half, my expectations (for the most part) are still being met. Since I did so much research, I knew that people were a little surprised at how thin the mattress is. This did not bother me at all - I love that it supports me and I can sleep in any position without any body part falling asleep. I used to be a side sleeper 100%. Now, I can sleep on my back, on my side, and on my stomach without any issues. While I would like to think that it solved my back issues, I think my chiropractor helped; however, I do notice that my pain comes back slightly if I sleep on another mattress. So Purple for the win in helping keep my chiropractor bills at a reasonable amount! I definitely sleep cooler, which is great. My body temp runs pretty high on a regular basis, so to stay cool and not wake up all sweaty is amazing. I can still feel my partner move, but I think it is because we got the queen instead of the king. However, we don't move as much in our sleep anymore because we are sleeping a lot better than we used to. I definitely won't be returning the Purple mattress and hope to one day have one in every room of my house. I am even trying to convince family members of my awesome sleep state these days. I am thankful that the creative marketing got me hooked, and for once, I would say that this marketing doesn't lead you on. Purple delivers on exactly what they say they deliver on. So if you are questioning your decision, trust me - it really will change your life...at least while you sleep.
