Purple Premium Smart Base review

Purple sells three adjustable bases to go under its GelFlex Grid mattresses. The Premium Smart Base is the middle one: Purple lists head and foot elevation, go-to presets for sleep and lounge comfort, control by smart app or wireless remote, and adjustable leg height that fits most bed frames. The cheaper Purple Adjustable Base lifts the head only and uses a wired remote, while the Premium Plus Smart Base adds massage settings, pillow tilt, lumbar support and underbed lighting. Purple frames ship free, carry a limited 10-year warranty and are FSA/HSA eligible through Truemed. During its Black Friday sale Purple advertised up to $300 off an adjustable base with a mattress purchase. Purple's page loads its prices with scripts, so our plain-text USD check did not capture the price and we mark it pending; confirm the queen price on Purple's site before you buy.
