Comfort	Douglas' CoolSense™ cover and ecoLight™ cooling gel foam layer absorb more heat with faster dissipation, giving you a cooler sleep. Moisture-wicking CoolSense™ cover. Breathable ecoLight™ cooling gel foam. Fast infrared heat dissipation. The comfort layer of Luxury ecoLight™ Cooling Gel Foam is made with a 50% smaller carbon footprint, ecoLight™ cooling gel foam is just as durable, responsive, and luxurious as high density memory foam, but won't retain heat or feel like quicksand. Premium Elastex™ Foam. As durable, supportive, and responsive as natural Latex foam, Elastex™ is made without any of the harmful, allergy-causing chemicals found in many Latex mattresses.	The Purple Grid™ has thousands of open air channels that feel cool as you lie doown and neutralize your body heat throughout the night so you sleep comfortably all night long. Air circulates more easily through the interior coils, which perfectly complement the Grid's built-in air channels and temperature-neutral gel material.
Support	Premium AirScape™ foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure. Memory foam with 3 areas of Zoned Support™ help align your spine and relieve pressure. Softer under shoulders and firmer around the hips, waist and lower back. Gel pods under the waist and lower back add support and help keep your spine perfectly aligned in any position. Zoned Support™ Max reinforces the layer of memory foam above with continuous support zones to provide full-body relief and ease aches and pains. Fabric-wrapped springs provide active support and a little lift.	The hyper-elastic polymer gel Grid immediately flexes to support your position and springs back into place as you readjust or move. The Purple Grid™ is designed to dynamically flex under pressure so it cradles pressure points like your hips and shoulders while still supporting the rest of your body. A border using high density foam creates reinforced edge support. Responsive Support Coils. Individually wrapped stainless steel coils pair with the Grid™ to offer dynamic pressure relief and support. Each coil is wrapped in responsibly sourced premium noise-reducing fabric. The Purple Grid™ is a flexible gel material that instantly adapts to your body and sleep position, providing soft support where you want it and firm support where you need it. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.

FAQs

Douglas

How often should I rotate my mattress?

It is recommended to rotate mattresses every 4 to 6 months. This is particularly important if there is a significant weight difference between the people using the bed. Rotating a mattress involves turning it 180 degrees, effectively making the foot of the bed the head, and vice versa. This allows the mattress surface to recover from prolonged body indentations, contributing to its longevity.

Is the Douglas mattress good for back pain?

Yes, the Douglas mattress, with its medium-firm feel, is often recommended for individuals experiencing back pain. This firmness level aids in maintaining proper spinal alignment.

Is the Douglas mattress hot?

The Douglas mattress uses Tencel fabric in its cover to draw moisture away from the body, aiding in cooling. However, individuals who are prone to overheating may still find it too warm.

Purple Hybrid

How long does Purple Hybrid last?

Purple mattresses are engineered to last approximately 10 years under normal use. As long as the mattress is used properly within its 10-year lifespan, you should not experience any sagging.

Is Purple Hybrid good for stomach sleepers?

Yes, the Purple Hybrid Mattress is a good choice for stomach sleepers. It is designed to provide the necessary support for those who prefer this sleeping position.

What happened to Purple Hybrid?

Purple has discontinued the Purple Hybrid and Premier mattresses, and they are no longer available for purchase. Purple now offers new hybrid mattresses in their Premium and Luxe collections, including the Purple Hybrid, and the Purple Hybrid Premier 3 and 4.
