Cushion Firm

Gel Grid Foam

Best Hybrid Alternative

Why I Rated It This Way

It is innovative and fairly priced, but the all-foam core limits pressure relief, cooling, and long-term support versus hybrids.

Professor Goodsleep's Bottom Line

A good introduction to Purple, with clear reasons to move up to a hybrid.

Best Memory Foam Alternative

Tempur-Pedic ProAdapt Medium

Best Hybrid Alternative

Helix Midnight Luxe

Worth Spending More

Yes if you can afford a hybrid; coil support materially improves Purple performance.

Skip This If...
