Firmness info	The 3-inch Purple Grid™ layer is optimal for sleep position changers. Perfect balance of soft and firm for couples with mixed mattress-feel preferences who share the same bed. Petite customers (115-pounds or less) tend to prefer The Purple Premier, as their pressure points are better cradled due to a thicker Purple Grid. Similarly, customers who weigh 250-pounds or more have expressed a common interest in The Purple Premier, as it offers a bit more support.	Experience the perfect balance of support and pressure relief with the S&S Mattress. Its medium firmness, high-density memory foam provides ample support, while the premium base foam ensures a solid foundation. Unlike traditional memory foam, our foam maintains consistent firmness regardless of temperature, delivering a comfortable sleep experience.

Comfort	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.	When it comes to foam, weight means comfort and quality and our mattress is one of the heaviest on the market. Our ultra-dense 4lb memory foam will give you the plushness and pressure relief you've been looking for and keep that feel for 15 years or more. A luxury 4 lb memory foam layer that provides a cooler, more consistent sleep surface every single night - 13x better than conventional memory foam, 16x better than latex.
Support	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.	Our foam mattress is the perfect hybrid - you'll get the spring and bounce of latex, with the support and pressure relief that memory foam is known for. A premium 1.8 lb high performance foam transition layer that provides the spring and bounce you'd find in a latex or coil bed, while providing unparalleled support, pressure relief and motion isolation. This durable 1.8 lb premium support layer is the foundation to it all. Strength, support and structure of the mattress starts here.
