Comfort	Uplifting comfort and support that memory foam can't match. Talalay Latex is an open cell foam, allowing it to "breathe" to keep you exceptionally cool and comfortable.	Ventilation is the key to sleeping just right - not too hot, and not too cold. Purple achieves the ultimate sleep comfortability by combining a totally new material with a totally unique design. Purple remains temperature-neutral so you don't sleep hot and sweaty at night Purple's column design allows air to flow freely, preventing moisture trapping, extending the life of the mattress, and providing cleaner, more comfortable sleep. Thanks to the free air flow design and patented polymer materials, Purple naturally sleeps much cooler than memory foam, latex, and other mattress technology.
Support	Cool, breathable pressure relief of open-cell Talalay Latex Progressive back/spinal support without motion transfer. Talalay is a manufacturing process used to make high quality latex foam that is ideal for mattresses and pillows. Talalay latex is characterized by a lighter, more bouyant feel than that found in standard latex foam. It is available in array of densities from super plush to extra firm. Unlike memory foam, it instantly responds to your movements without needing the body heat in order to conform to your unique shape.	A revolutionary mattress designed for just about everyone. It's designed to not only help you get better sleep, but to soothe joints, release pressure on the hips and shoulders, and support the neck and back. It's designed to make bedtime the highlight of your day! The Hyper-Elastic Polymer Purple is a pressure-releasing material. 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.
