Purple!

Have you heard of purple?   It's a company that makes mattresses, and along with that pillows, mattress pads, sheets...
We had not heard of this brand, but were looking at new mattresses.  Bob's shoulders have been bothering him at night and I was waking up with a back ache every day.  A mattress is a hard thing to buy, because you really don't know how you'll like it.  Laying on one for a few minutes is nothing like a whole night!
Bob put something on facebook asking people what kind of mattresses they had and liked and several said purple, one of whom was his brother.  When we talked to him, he raved about how much better he and his wife were sleeping since they got this mattress.
So, we went online to check it out.  You order it online and it's delivered by UPS.  You can try it for 100 days and if you don't like it they will pick it up and refund your money.
We figured we wouldn't be out anything by trying it so the order was placed.  About 1 week later, this purple tube arrived.  It was very heavy, and interesting to open, remove the plastic that was sealing it and seeing it pop up to size!
We've used it for 2 weeks so far and I really like it.  It's different than other mattresses - somehow it feels soft and supportive at the same time!  Bob is enjoying it too, so I don't think we'll be sending it back.   We're hoping we get lots of good sleep on this mattress!

I haven't heard about this. I remember years ago buying a bean bag for one of my kids. It came in a small box and then grew and grew and grew! It was really bigger than what I wanted, but it was so big I had no way to return it!

I'm glad the mattress is working out for you!

There is nothing better for your bones than a good mattress! We invested in a Tempurpedic and love it! Got the pillows too. Glad you found one you are enjoying too!

We just bought a Queen size Restonic ---it came in a bag and we have had it for 4 days now, love it, love it, love it. We both are getting good nights sleep now.

Have a beautiful day friend.

I'm glad the new mattress is working out for you. A good night's sleep is always so important. I've not heard of Purple before, but your comment about the mattress being both soft and supportive perfectly describes our mattress. When my FMS pain gets really bad I go sit on the bed and it feels wonderful.

I am so happy it was what you hoped for and you and your hubby continue to sleep well.

I have not heard of Purple, but I know there are several you can order and set them up when delivered. So glad this one is working good for you. A restful, good nights sleep means the world.

I might have to check this out. We desperately need a new mattress. We're both waking up in pain almost every day lately, and my husband has some other physical issues that make it important for him to have a good bed. Thank you for sharing, Mari.

I have not heard of Purple before, my dil was saying there’re looking for a new mattress, I’ll have to tell her about this.

I have never heard of that! I do know that many memory foam mattresses are very compressed when new, but then expand. We have a Tempurpedic memory foam mattress and absolutely love it.

I haven't heard of purple either but I can't imagine what a mattress that was in a roll would be like on a bed! I hope you both sleep well using it.

I've been noticing the purple ads! I'm so glad you did this. We bought the Leesa memory foam mattress about 18 months ago and we love it. It's the main competitor to Casper but its reviews were slightly better. I notice that Purple claims to have eliminated the "sleeping hot" thing which hasn't really been an issue for me, but then I keep it very cold in my room. I layered mine with a big-bump gel topper and then a thick, cushy mattress pad and our bed feels like a cloud. I love it. I hope you love your new bed forever! xoxo
