Purple Restore Hybrid is built around a material no other brand here uses: a 2-inch GelFlex Grid that Purple says adapts instantly to your shape, cradles pressure points and draws heat away. Under it sit a comfort foam layer, edge support foam and an 8-inch responsive coil system, for an 11.5-inch medium mattress that Purple recommends for stomach, back, side and combination sleepers. The grid feels different from foam, so it is worth trying at one of the 3,400 or more retail locations Purple lists before ordering. Terms are standard: a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty, with free shipping in 1 to 2 days. Price is the weak point. The queen was $2,299 on sale when we checked, against a $2,699 regular price, roughly three times the Nectar and DreamCloud queens, and Purple notes that not every bed frame gives the support its mattresses need.
