![]() This technique should help soften the foam and even increase its lifespan. This is where you put on clean socks and step on the mattress after spreading it on your bed for a few minutes for the first ten days or so. The Purple Mattress comes in a pretty tight packaging therefore it is recommended that you perform the “sock dance.” Some users have also reported some numbness to the arms and legs during the first few days of using the mattress due to too much firmness. You will not be able to order an extra soft or extra firm Purple Mattress and this can be a downer. The other downside is that the firmness of this bed cannot be adjusted, instead, it adjusts itself according to your weight. The king size weighs around 150lbs, so ensure to make arrangements on how it is going to get to your bedroom. One main disadvantage of this bed is its weight. You cannot test a bed online, and it may difficult to tell exactly what will suit your needs, especially for those with physical problems such as injuries or body aches.

This has been able to make the mattress, hands-down the coolest in the market especially when combined with the thin cover.Įven compared to other great mattresses such as Casper and Ghost Bed, the Purple Mattress outshines them both. The Purple Mattress Smart-Comfort Grid design is equipped with air pockets that keep the surface extremely cool. For instance, deeper, more comfortable sleep, falling asleep faster and having a ‘glow’ during the day because of a higher retention of melatonin. Sleeping in a cool environment has been shown to provide various health benefits. The material of the top layer also responds almost instantaneously when switching positions. ![]() As a result, while you are sleeping on the Purple Mattress, you will not experience that “hugging” feeling of a mattress. It shows a subtle difference though, especially when it comes to motion transfer. The hyper-elastic polymer has a high level of bounce, similar to that of latex. I had to double-check the tags to make sure it wasn’t actually feathers because it feels so real.The cover’s material and the grid system also makes the Purple Mattress one of the most breathable in the market. (We’d already given it more than a month to settle.) So, we said goodbye to Helix and the idea of a hybrid mattress, but we did keep the Helix down-alternative pillows we got because those perfectly mimic feathers in a way I’ve never seen before from vegan bedding brands. (It was.) And then we were asked to give it a longer break-in period to settle, to which I replied I don’t think it’s going to suddenly get stronger while settling in. We were asked to check our bedframe and the floor to make sure it was level. We got so much pushback for our criticisms. ![]() This bed is sensitive, and customer service is, too. For context, we’re both petite and weigh less than 150. My wife and I kept rolling into each other like there was a giant sinkhole in the middle of the bed. The topper wasn’t cooling and I believe a hybrid mattress is the worst of both worlds. So, we took a chance on the Midnight with the additional GlacioTex Cooling Cover because it sounded so life-changing. And the Helix Midnight has rave reviews from side sleepers. ![]() It’s supposed to be the best of both a spring coil base and a memory foam topper. Helix: A newer trend in the mattress world is a hybrid mattress. But my response back was always: If the mattress I bought was the one that was supposed to be right for my sleeping position, why would another one work? So, I bided my time and ended up with multiple mattresses as wall art in my apartment. Yep, they will completely forego their mandated break-in period on a mattress if you switch to something else they sell. Both Helix and Saatva tried so hard to keep me in their mattress circle by offering an instant exchange for a different mattress. Now, a carrot that several companies dangled in front of me while I went through multiple levels of customer service hell is an exchange. And sometimes, even though the return is free, you’ll have to pay what’s called a re-stocking fee. So, you could be stuck with a mattress you hate for three months until it’s eligible for a return. Some companies say the break-in period is 30 days, some 90. While most mattress brands offer a flashy three-month or even a year return window, what they don’t tell you or what is only stated in the teeny, tiny fine print is that nearly every mattress brand has a “break-in period" for mattresses, meaning you can’t return a mattress until after the break-in period. Here’s what I’ve learned the hard way: Mattress returns are a nightmare.
