I had previously ordered, trialed, and returned a competitor's mattress. It was one that had a firm and soft side. My husband and I were uncertain of which we each preferred. We learned that we preferred soft and the soft side of that particular mattress was supposedly a 6 on the firm scale but felt firmer in my opinion. I finally decided I would try one more mattress before purchasing "the best of the best" of mattress which would have been an easy 5k. I'm so glad I did. I was leery of Purple's design and my husband is sooo picky! BUT we've used it for about 2 weeks or so without any complaints. No complaints is high praise from my husband. As for me, I was concerned about it not being a typical foam or coil mattress...I was hesitant because I wanted it to feel soft. I wouldn't classify the feel as soft, but it's certainly not firm to me... it seems to be just right. I guess it's what we never knew we needed. So if you're debating, I say give it a try! You've got nothing to lose.

Fun story. Have had our queen purple mattress for about three years now. Wife and I love it. The funny part is that we live about 45 min south from Ridgecrest California. Last Thursday night Ridgecrest experienced a 7.1mg earthquake in the late night. While my wife and I were sleeping on our mattress. We completely slept through the biggest earthquake California has experienced in 20 years. This bed is amazing!

Its been about a week since everything arrived and was put together. I've been sleeping amazing! No squeaking of springs or a noisy boxspring. The mattress is so comfortable. The 2 minuses are i couldn't attach it to my headboard and I wish I purchased the thicker mattress just cause my queen sheets were for a thick mattress.

The mattress is comfortable & cool! I've had the mattress for two weeks now and I'm still adjusting to it. Sometimes I get too cold with the purple sheets which came free with the mattress. Once I get all the little things lined up, I will be the soundest sleeper!

I needed a new bed, don't have the time to make the rounds to all the mattress stores and have zero interest in knowing what I like(firm/hard/sleep number), I needed good support, not complicated choices, REASONABLY PRICED and bring it to me.....this is what I got, have had it about a month now, really loved all of the process, it shipped early, was sort of fun to set up and it sleeps awesome...it is heavy yes, but so is any other over priced mattress, my girlfriend and I set it up with no issues.

At first I was scared that I wasn't going to like it. Hearing how you can feel the grid and how it was hard to move in. How ever I don't find it hard to move in and it's the most comfy bed I've own. My only problem is the height of the mattress frame is a little bit tall makes it feel a 6ft tall or higher should buy one

We are enjoying our Purple mattress and sleeping better than we have in a LONG time. It's a bit firmer than I had anticipated, and sleeping on my left side causes pain in my left hip, which I had hoped would be alleviated with the support offered by Purple. We still like the mattress and are happy with our purchase.

My wife really didn't like the feel of the mattress, even through the pad and sheets that we purchased from you, and when she slept on it, she woke up in the middle of the night because her shoulders hurt so much. Subsequent nights on the mattress have not changed her opinion, and she won't sleep on it.

My back was killing me in the weeks leading up to me buying this bed, and literally the first night's sleep was all it took . The next morning my back didn't hurt anymore!!! I wasn't paid by anyone to say this either !!! I highly recommend this bed !!!

I'm coming off of a crap mattress, so anything is better than my last mattress. I'm not sure if it's what I was hoping for. The only thing left is the the purple sheets. If I would have waited 3 days I would have got all the extras free, platform, protector, and sheets. If purple thinks the sheets will make the difference, and they are giving them away for free now then maybe I should get a free set to find out if they make the difference.
