I asked Purple what the difference is and got this reply: The Purple Plus has the updated foams in the lower layers. The Costco mattress is using our old foams/standard foams that we use in our Purple mattress, there are just a few more of those layers than in our Purple mattress.

Purple Renew Review
The simple truth is you can find numerous other mattresses with better performance for far less money. In my view, the only compelling reason to go with the Renew is if you simply have to have and love the Purple grid material. Type: Specialty Firmness: Medium-Firm (6) Best For: Back or Stomach Sleepers, Bodyweights between 150-250 lbs. ... In This Review ... 2025 Update - Purple has updated their return policy from free returns to now charging a return fee of $150 to return the Renew mattress. This mattress is sold via Purple's website (with a $150 return fee) and also at Costco (free returns

r/Costco on Reddit: Anyone tried the purple mattress?
February 25, 2025 -

The purple mattress is $400 off at my local Costco right now. I’ve always wanted one, and I sat on the little rectangular sample today and it was so comfortable. I have a bad back and have a coolive hybrid mattress right now, i’ve had it for a few years and like it, but it’s not AMAZING. Is the purple mattress as good as people say it is? Or is my conviction that every mattress is practically the same if it’s a similar material? ie if i get another hybrid mattress it will essentially be the same. I want to get an amazing mattress that I will always be comfortable on and is comfortable for my back. Is that the purple mattress? If so I need to jump on it while it’s $400 off.

Edit: thank you everyone for the great advice!!! looks like I’ll be going to the mattress store to lay on some mattresses. Everyone brought up a great point how if I have a hybrid now, I should stick with it especially if I need support for back pain. I also am going to try the Kirkland Stearns & Foster mattress and the Casper to see which one I like the best. Unfortunately I won’t be able to cash in on the $400 off because it’s not the hybrid, it’s just the grid + foam mattress which most have said doesn’t have have as much support and it doesn’t seem to last as long.

r/LifeOnPurple on Reddit: Has anyone bought the new Purple mattress line up? What's your experience?
May 29, 2023 -

I'm looking to buy a new mattress and I've been hearing good things about the new line up from Purple. I'm wondering if anyone here has bought one and what their experience has been like so far.

Specifically, the old models I was interested in the Hybrid 3 or 4. I'm a side sleeper and I'm looking for a mattress that is comfortable and supportive, and I think that translates into the "soft" version of the Restore lineup, or a medium Rejuvinate.

They've only been out for a few weeks, but if you have any experience with the new Purple mattresses, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

August 8, 2019 - I got aproved for a warranty due to indentations on my original purple mattress from Jan 2020. I'm considering upgrading to the original purple plus for 600$ since it will restart my warranty window . I loved the original purple mattress when I first got it but I'm wondering how much softer the plus is - my wife is worried about changing the mattress in case it's too soft or we don't like it.

It is the hardest thing I’ve moved up stairs and that includes couches and pianos. Great once it ships, but hire someone to move it if u need to after. ...

r/LifeOnPurple on Reddit: Replacing OG purple mattress from 2017
October 19, 2023 -

I have loved my og original purple mattress from 2017, it has survived several moves, being thrown down stairwells (on moving day when elevator was broken 😞) and some serious spills. I’ve done my best to take care of it but I fear some pet messes and a tipped beer or 2 may have finally gotten the best of my mattress. I might slice it open to attempt a deep clean, but I noticed purple is running a sale online and I think it’s time to replace it, I heard they last about ten years and honestly 6-7 is good enough for me at this point.

I chatted with a support rep and they said the model “purple mattress” is closest to the og original, which I love it has truly helped my back and made sleeping so much more comfortable for me. Is this correct, the og model is pretty much same as current regular “purple mattress” model?

The rep gave me a code to use and I can get the regular purple queen size for $800 and the $10 CA recycling fee or whatever else they tack on. That’s pretty good and I think I will buy.

Does anyone have a serious reason I should swing for the purple plus? I could do $400 more if it’s worth it but if I like the OG original so much I don’t see the need for the premiere premium $3000 models right now, maybe next time haha 😆

Are their pillows anything crazy to spring for also? I might get their mattress protector and some accessory type stuff too. Any insight would be appreciated thank you! I have an ikea slat bed frame that works great with it so I don’t need a base or anything extra they sell. Besides maybe a pillow or protector

r/Mattress on Reddit: PurpleFlex vs Purple Renew Costco
January 4, 2025 -

Hi, there are many posts comparing the Purple Plus vs. the Costco Purple Renew. My main takeaway is that the Costco Renew is of a lower quality, using older foam tech.

But now, Purple has the PurpleFlex, and currently on sale at $999 matching the Costco Purple Renew price, also on sale at $999.

https://www.costco.com/purplerenew-11-gel-grid-mattress.product.4000181704.html

https://purple.com/mattresses/purple-flex

Does anyone familiar with the new Flex to know how these compare? I am returning my Costco Stern & Foster to trade for a new purple and both of these Purple options are contenders.

Thank you in advance!

January 29, 2024 -

Looking for a new mattress. Went to mattress firm and tried all their hybrids (my preferred, as I don't like the traditional kind and I don't like full memory foam). I laid on the newer purple restore and my back pain was instantly gone. I was just about sold until I started reading people's experiences. I really don't ant to go through the hassle of replacing a mattress that's going to sink in. So I laid on the tempurpedic pro adapt in medium (too expensive, and the one I liked was slightly too soft) and the sealy posturepedic plus in firm (the lady said I wasn't aligned, so slightly too soft). I didn't mind either of these, but neither felt as good as the purple.

So I'm wondering, has anyone had a good experience with them? Or if not, are there any mattresses that have a similar feeling? I'm getting overwhelmed with options.

r/productreview on Reddit: Is the Purple Mattress Actually Worth It in 2025?
March 30, 2025 -

I finally gave in and bought a Purple mattress last week after dealing with terrible sleep on my old coil mattress for way too long. I kept seeing ads for it and even saw people mention it in a random thread while scrolling free VPN Reddit looking for a new VPN. Figured it was a sign to at least try it out since they have the trial period.

The first night was honestly weird. The mattress feels super different compared to anything I’ve ever slept on. It’s squishy but supportive at the same time, kinda like sleeping on a big firm jelly sheet. Took me about two nights to stop overthinking it and actually relax. By the third night, I noticed I wasn’t waking up as stiff, especially in my lower back, which has been a huge problem for me.

It’s been a week now and I’m honestly impressed. It doesn’t get crazy hot like memory foam usually does, and I move around less at night because it just feels more comfortable in one spot. I’m still kinda in that early “is this too good to be true?” phase though.

Has anyone else been sleeping on a Purple mattress longer-term? Does it keep that comfy feeling or does it start to wear out after a few months? Curious what people think before I fully commit past the trial.

r/Mattress on Reddit: New purple, do you still love it?
November 4, 2025 -

So I was doing lots of research, and thought I would get latex mattress. I loved my latex pillows but needed to try laying on one.

Well at the store they had AVOCADO and I liked it a lot, I know its hybrid, but just to get the idea of what the foam would feel like.

I tried laying on many many mattress, of all kinds to see what I liked.

Then I tried purple.

I loved it. The hybrid especially. My partner just wanted me to be happy lol, but he is a side sleeper and preferred the original.

So now we are 5 nights on this thing and enjoy it more every night.

Reading reviews after the fact are freaking me the F out. And making me fear I should exchange it when I hit the 30-120 day window.

So many negative reviews here on reddit speaking to the horrendous durability. Although elsewhere on the internet are overwhelmingly positive

So idk anyone have the standard Purple mattress of a recent generation and actually still love it after some time? Or should I exchange this big investment for a seemingly more durable avocado when I get the chance?

r/Mattress on Reddit: Purple Mattress 2-Year Review
July 23, 2021 -

Originally, I wrote a two-week review for the Purple Mattress I bought. I promised to write a one-month review but got lazy and never did. Since then, I've also brought the Purple SoftStretch Sheets, so I'll be doing a review on those too. I WAS NOT PAID BY PURPLE OR ANYONE ELSE TO WRITE THIS REVIEW! This is of my own volition and I just want to express my own opinion and hopefully help others make a decision.

Purple Customer Service: 5/5 | Delivery Wait Time: 4/5 | Purple Mattress: 7/10 | Purple Plush Pillow: 2/5 | Purple Bed Frame 5/5 | Purple SoftStretch Sheets: 5/5

5/5 I love Purple's Customer Service! The automated messages don't lie when they tell you that they're going to connect you to an amazing, well-rested specialist! The specialists are eloquent and sincere and kind and considerate! Just recently I spoke to one that was especially bubbly and very easy to talk to. He did a wonderful job assisting me.

4/5 For my Purple SoftStretch Sheets, the delivery wait time wasn't so bad. I had to wait around two weeks for them to arrive, and I received a tracking number that made it easy to keep track of the package as well as notifications that kept me up to date.

7/10 I like my Purple Mattress. I really do. But I don't love it. Personally, I feel like I should never have bought it. It's a nice mattress, but it's just nice. It's comfortable to sleep on because the materials aren't too hard or too soft. It's just right. But I feel like it wasn't worth the cost. Personally, the $1K I spent on the mattress could have been used a lot more responsibly, and I could have been just as satisfied with a $300-$400 memory foam mattress. Purple's mattress wasn't some transformative experience that makes every night feel magical and cures all of your body's aches and pains. It makes it easier to sleep, which is much appreciated. But not so much easier that it justifies the $1K price, and not in some magical way that you couldn't get from a cheaper memory foam mattress. Perhaps it will last longer. I've had it for 2 years and I'm going to be honest...I've abused mine quite a bit. But it's still in really great shape and hasn't gone down in quality over the years. It's a pretty ok mattress and I'm sure that whoever buys it will like it. I like it. But if I could go back, I wouldn't have bought it. I will say one thing though. That whole selling point they have about it keeping its temperature? A lie. This bed is cold as hell during the Winter and hot as hell during the summer. It doesn't have anything special that makes it better during different temperatures/seasons.

2/5 The Purple Plush Pillow is decent and just decent. I'm having A LOT of trouble distinguishing it from any normal pillow. This is literally what I've said in my last review and my opinion hasn't changed. It's no wonder I got it for free, it's high-end but basic at the same time. It's pretty alright but plain. I will say it keeps its shape a lot better and for a lot longer than other pillows I've gotten. It's the same as the mattress though, the whole temperature spiel is untrue.

5/5 The Purple Bed Frame is GREAT. SUPER easy to set up, super stable, and has a lot of height, which is what I like from my bed frames. I would recommend it not only for a Purple Mattress but for ANY mattress whatsoever. It's just great all around. It is stable and I love it and I will keep it forever. I have those cheap adhesive tile floors that low-end bedrooms usually get, and a problem I've had in the past with other bed frames is that they'll leave holes in the tiles or outright scrape the tiles off the floor. But the purple bed frame is simplistic and designed VERY well and doesn't scrape my floor. It's SO easy to set up and take apart and I am completely in love with it. Even if I get a different mattress brand in the future, I'll always keep my purple bed frame!

5/5 I love the Purple SoftStretch Sheets! They're really great! I feel like this should be the standard for all bedsheets! They're soft and stretchy and comfortable and look great on my mattress! I received it as a set, so it came with two sheets, one fitted and one flat. I prefer the fitted one, but since they're literally giving me an extra bed sheet I gave the flat one to my brother! It also came with two pillowcases which, like the bedsheets, are very comfortable! I'm super happy with my purchase. My only criticism is that this set is...explicitly overpriced. It was overpriced when I bought them, and they were ON SALE for $116. And right now? They're $170. I hope that Purple knows they're driving people away with their prices!

Overall, my experience with Purple would be: 7/10

If I could go back, I wouldn't have bought the Purple Mattress. But that doesn't mean I don't like it and that I'm not happy I have it now. It's comfortable and it works and after two years of having it, that's all that matters now. I would definitely recommend buying some of their side products, like the sheets or the bed frame. You don't need the mattress itself in order to have an enjoyable sleeping experience, their other products help in a lot of ways. Happy buying!

r/Mattress on Reddit: Purple Mattress is a mess.
June 27, 2025 -

Where to start. I'll start from the beginning. Our experience at the Purple store itself was great. The workers were very patient and helpful with explaining the different versions and finding the best fit for our needs. When we decided which mattress we wanted (Rejuvenate Premier), putting in the order was fairly easy. We applied for the 0% financing and did everything at the store. When we ordered, we were told it would be about 2-4 weeks before we got our mattress. Not a problem at the time, even though our mattress at home was on its last leg. But this was where things took a turn for the worst. 2-4 weeks turned into up to 12 weeks. At this point, we had no choice but to wait since we really needed a new mattress and we had already started paying on the new Purple one. They sent 2 free pillows as part of the inconvenience, which I think was a nice gesture, however, using their pillows with a non-Purple mattress is sort of pointless. So we kept waiting, and finally, after 8.5 weeks, we were told our mattress will be delivered. The delivery service is 3rd party, and they are terrible at calling and confirming time frames. We didn’t get a confirmation on the time frame until day of delivery. This would have been a huge inconvenience had I not work from home. When the delivery team came, they took the old mattress and setup the new stand and mattress. They needed our help to get the mattress up the stairs, which is slightly concerning. You think they would have more than 2 people for such heavy mattresses. When they brought the stand, they told us that it was damaged in shipment, and that they would alert Purple. We debated submitting a warranty claim, and so I started registering our stand. I thought I had to register the mattress as well, but quickly realized that wasn’t necessary. However, while figuring that out, I realized that the mattress had also been damaged on the handle on the side. Probably from it being so heavy and the delivery people using the handle to move the mattress. I went to file a warranty claim, and that was when we realized we weren’t even given the correct mattress. We were given the Rejuvenate Plus. This was several thousand dollars difference between mattresses, and this one was for people who sleep on their back or stomach. We wanted the Premier because of being side sleepers, and it was the one we felt was most comfortable in the store. This was a huge problem. At this point, we had waited over 2 months for delivery and got the completely wrong mattress. We called immediately, and also called the store to make sure we were going about things appropriately. The store manager advised they would contact internally to make sure this was rectified as soon as possible. After a few days, we finally were able to get in contact with someone in the returns/warranty department at Purple and they advised we would put this through as a warranty claim. We wanted to ensure they understood that this was not in fact a warranty claim, it was their error. They advised that they would work to rectify this as soon as possible. Well, as you can imagine, they had to make another mattress. We were told these requests are usually filled quicker and hopefully with in 1-2 weeks. It took another MONTH. And while we have the right mattress FINALLY, we had yet to be compensated for this complete mess, even though we were assured there would be some form of compensation for the mix up. After having to ask, they offered us 1 pillow (which we already have 4- two we bought, and the two we were sent because the original order was delayed 2 months), a mattress protector (which we already bought) or a seat cushion. The only choice would have been the seat cushion, which neither of us needed or wanted. When we state we didn’t feel like this was adequate, they offered a sheet set or $250 towards our balance on the mattress. I feel like a company completely mixing up the type of mattress, after 3 months of waiting and back and forth, should do more than offer something worth $250. Especially when it was their error!!!

With all that being said - be prepared to wait, and wait forever. Also, make sure that when the delivery drivers leave your mattress, you have the right one. And that its not damaged. What a nightmare. For paying almost $10k for a mattress, you think they would have a better system, and better customer service than what we experienced. Quite disappointed in the process, and will caution anyone else looking to buy one of these mattresses.

i recently ordered the rejuvenate ultimate. i was told 6-7 weeks. 1 day after ordering i received a delivery notification and it was delivered to me the very next day, 2 days total wait. The people at Purple seemed very surprised. That said my delivery experience was very similar. The ultimate weighs 300lbs. They sent 2 delivery guys who were completely unable to move the mattress without my help. Fortunately we managed it without any damage. I do really like the mattress.

Horrible story, sorry you had to go through that. Basically, they’re offering items with retail value, not actual cash value, things that carry a high margin mark-up, and only things that most customers likely already bought or don’t need. Hopefully, you like the mattress itself, because Purple has been on a bit of a tailspin lately. The company’s been hemorrhaging money, and their signature grid material reportedly breaks down faster than expected. Some people wonder why they keep pushing it. That said, the most important thing is whether you're comfortable. If you are, try to chalk this up as a frustrating experience you won’t want to go through again, but hopefully won’t have to. Think of it like this: in a basketball game, when a ref makes a bad call, you can argue and fume about it, but it’s not going to change the outcome. Sometimes, you just have to take the hit and move on. If you still win the game in the end, meaning if you are sleeping better now, then take the win. But if you're the least bit uncertain, exercise the trial period policy and start over. There are some great mattresses of real quality in the $10K range that are well worth the investment.

r/LifeOnPurple on Reddit: Purple Plus or Purple Restore Hybrid (soft)
December 29, 2023 -

I’ve been dealing with some shoulder and back pain as a side sleeper on my crappy foam mattress, as well as overheating, so I figured it was time to upgrade and get a Purple.

My partner and I tried a few variants in my local mattress store, including the purple plus, the restore soft and firm, and the restore plus firm. Our favorite two were the purple plus and the purple restore (soft), and strangely enough, we both slightly preferred the purple plus in the store. I think it felt softer which we liked.

However, I figure there must be a good reason why the Restore is more expensive. Does anyone have any insight on why one might want to drop a bit more to get this mattress (2k vs 1.5k for a queen)? Is it going to last us longer? Is it going to age better? What would you do in my shoes?

And for reference, we are both under 160 pounds, we are both side sleepers, and both prefer softer mattresses.
