	Purple Hybrid	SleepOvation
Type	Hybrid (coils and foam)	Hybrid (coils and latex)
Launched	1989	2015
Brand	Purple	SleepOvation
Made in	United States	United States
Unique points	The New-School Classic. The bed that started it all - now with some serious upgrades. 2" Smart Comfort Grid : Hyper-Elastic Polymer with non-toxic polyethylene copolymer non-stick coating 7.5" Responsive Support Coils: Individually fabric-encased steel coils Polyurethane Foam: Transition layer: 0.5", 2.0 density layer. Base layer: 1", 2.0 density layer. Encasing edge-support layer: 0.5", 2.0 density layer.	Our "Tiny Mattress" technology is the most significant mattress invention in the last 100 years. There is no other mattress on the market that compares to our one-of-a-kind technology and it's GREENGUARD Gold Certified. We take a 3" piece of high density hybrid foam optimized for our technology, cut out a 2.25" x 2.25" rectangular cylinder, and then encase it in a fabric pocket. We then attach the Cushion Pocket to a .078" high carbon steel pocketed coil spring to create our patented "Cushion Pocket Spring", better known as the "Tiny Mattress". Finally, we combine roughly 700 of these "Tiny Mattresses" to create a mattress that reacts independently to personal weight and size.

Firmness info	2-inch Purple® grid layer is ideal for back sleepers and those who prefer a slightly firmer feel to their mattress.	The SleepOvation mattress is meant to relieve back-pain and correct your sleeping posture, it does feel on the firmer side but not because the mattress itself is firm - but because it's correcting your spine. It's actually a very comfortable plush mattress, but someone who suffers from severe back pain, will feel the mattress to be much stiffer than someone with a healthy spine. It's difficult to compare our mattress to the traditional firmness standards of other mattresses simply because nothing like the 700 tiny mattresses exist.
