The Future of Sleep: Why Purple Stands Out
If you’re on the hunt for the perfect mattress, it all starts with the revolutionary Purple GelFlex Grid — a technology that stands apart from traditional memory foam, spring mattresses, and adjustable air beds. After more than 20 years of testing, the GelFlex Grid, crafted from a hyper-elastic polymer, delivers a unique combination of cushioning comfort and pressure relief, all while providing the support your body needs. As you shift throughout the night, it adapts instantly, reconfiguring itself to provide optimal body alignment and ease pressure where it’s needed most.
From my experience and testing, here’s what I’ve found: memory foam can’t offer the support needed for a restful night and tends to sleep hot. Spring mattresses often lead to pressure points, motion transfer, and annoying squeaks. Adjustable air mattresses leave you stuck between “too hard” or “too soft” — neither of which leads to the best sleep. In contrast, the GelFlex Grid offers a cloud-like feel while giving you the right amount of support to ensure you wake up feeling refreshed, pain-free, and well-rested.
The Purple Mattress Lineup: Which One is Right for You?
No matter your sleep style, Purple has a mattress designed to meet your needs. Here’s how their top options compare:
1. The Purple Mattress – Classic Comfort
The original Purple Mattress features the iconic GelFlex Grid, striking a balance between support and pressure relief. It naturally adapts to your body, cradling your shape while keeping your spine aligned. With a breathable design, it promotes airflow and helps you stay cool throughout the night. Ideal for back and side sleepers who enjoy a medium-firm feel.
2. The PurplePlus Mattress – Extra Plushness
If you’re looking for a bit more softness, the PurplePlus Mattress builds upon the original design by adding an extra layer of cushioning. This makes it an excellent choice for side sleepers who need added relief for their shoulders and hips while still benefiting from the support of the GelFlex Grid.

3. The RestorePlus Hybrid – The Best of Both Worlds
For those who want the perfect mix of bounce and support, the RestorePlus Hybrid combines the GelFlex Grid with pocketed coils. The result? A responsive, supportive, and breathable sleep surface that minimizes motion transfer—perfect for couples or anyone who prefers a more traditional mattress feel with modern technology.
