Firmness info	The Simba 1500 is a firm feel, the Simba 2500 is a medium-plush feel and the Simba 5000 Pro Flex is a plush feel. Simba used body profile data from 10 million sleepers (making up over 180 million profile points) to create a mattress designed for every sleep style and body type. Backed by a 100-night trial and 100,000+ five-star global reviews.	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.

Comfort	The Simba® 2500 Mattress is 12" deep. Our Simbatex memory foam is infused with graphite for cooling.	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	Up to 2,500 conical pocket miQro™ springs, made with British Steel, enclosed in a 100% polyester pocket.	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.
