PURPLE MATTRESS REVIEW
Brand Overview
The Purple Mattress is an online mattress brand that has gained immense popularity in recent years. It is a young entrant in the mattress space and is already highly sought-after. The company was started by two brothers with the vision to provide a unique affordable mattress that cater to the average sleeper. The brand has re-thought the original mattress concept to come up with an alternative construction and design that makes the mattress extremely durable with cooling comfort.

Construction & Design
The layers that make up this 9.5 inch tall mattress are discussed in detail below:
- Outer Cover– The SoftFlex cover is velvety soft, thin and breathable, and purple. It is specially formulated to be stretchy and pliable to move with the gel-like consistency of the mattress grid layer.
- Comfort Layer or The Purple Grid Layer– This layer is what sets the Purple mattress apart from other foam mattresses. The “Purple Grid” is a 2 inch thick memory foam alternative. It has a gel-like consistency and is made with hyper-elastic polymers that gives a water bed feel and promotes excellent air circulation. This layer is extremely pliable, and returns to its original shape after being stretched.
Right below the grid layer is a 3.5 inch soft responsive polyfoam layer. The foam layer adds support to the gel grid and prevents the gel grid from collapsing. - Support Layer– The support layer is 4 inches of polyfoam material. It provides good balance and structure to the entire mattress.
Edge Support
The Purple mattress has good edge support that limits sagging under body weight and pressure.
Firmness Level
This all-foam mattress sports a medium-firm level of about 6.5 out of 10.
Pressure Relief
The Purple Grid mattress excels in this area as well. The grid layer in the mattress perfectly contours to your body and hugs all the right places. This prevents pressure from building in your joints and muscles.
| Mattress Construction | Firmness / Support Level | Cooling / Motion Transfer | Trial Period / Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | 8 | 8 | 10 |
Motion Isolation
The Purple mattress is great at motion isolation despite its jiggly grid layer.
