Purple review

Purple stands apart for its comfort layer. The Purple Mattress puts a 2-inch GelFlex Grid over comfort foam, and the brand describes the result as medium-firm with responsive support that eases pressure at the hips, shoulders and joints for every sleep position. Buyers who dislike the slow sink of memory foam often look at Purple for that reason. The queen was $1,299 when we checked, down from $1,599, and the store lists free shipping in 1 to 2 days, a lowest price guarantee, a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty. Purple says it will pick up a returned mattress and issue a refund, but asks customers to sleep on it for at least 21 nights first. It ranks last here because of value and terms: the queen costs about twice the leaders, the trial and warranty are shorter, and Purple notes that not every bed frame gives its mattresses proper support.

Who it is for
