What supports this
Watch-outs
Quick verdict
- You dislike the springy, floating Purple Grid feel.
- You need a firm, flat-feeling surface for stomach sleeping.
- You wake easily from partner movement and want a slower all-foam bed.
- You want a value-first mattress before trying the surface.
Choose the Purple RestorePremier Hybrid if you want a soft, cooling-focused Purple hybrid with strong pressure relief, edge support, and easy repositioning. Skip it if you want a firm stomach sleeper mattress, a calmer couple's bed, a traditional pillow-top feel, or a less distinctive surface.
How it actually performs
What this score means
How we reached it
- Sinkage measured 1.78–1.86", with a 3-inch comfort Grid.
- The Grid flexes under the shoulders and hips without a slow foam hug.
- The feel is still uniquely Purple, not traditional plush memory foam.
Pressure-relief testing showed shallow 1.78–1.86-inch sinkage and strong cushioning from the 3-inch GelFlex Grid. The surface relieves shoulder and hip pressure without the deep, slow-moving contour of memory foam.
- Sinkage measured 1.78–1.86".
- Current construction uses 10-inch CoolFlex coils with foam tops.
- The shallow sink keeps many back sleepers closer to the surface.
- Heavier stomach sleepers and firm-bed shoppers should compare a flatter support profile.
Support checks showed shallow sinkage and stable alignment from the 13-inch profile and 10-inch CoolFlex coil system. The structure is excellent, though the soft surface is less suitable for heavier stomach sleepers and firm-bed shoppers.
- Peak-to-peak acceleration measured 12.11–12.61 m/s².
- Pocketed coils help limit movement from spreading across the entire surface.
- Very motion-sensitive partners may prefer a slower all-foam mattress with lower bounce.
Motion-transfer testing measured 12.11–12.61 m/s² peak-to-peak acceleration. That is good rather than exceptional isolation, so partner movement remains more noticeable than on a calmer foam mattress.
Movement reaching the other side
A fixed 12 lb load creates the impact while an accelerometer records the movement that crosses the mattress.
- The current official build combines a 3-inch Grid with 10-inch CoolFlex coils.
- Shallow sinkage limits close body contact and heat buildup.
- Sheets, protectors, and room temperature still influence how cool the bed feels.
Cooling checks showed strong heat dissipation from the open GelFlex Grid and CoolFlex coil system. Shallow 1.78–1.86-inch sinkage also limits the close body contact that can trap heat on a deeply contouring foam mattress.
- Sitting-edge compression measured 3.19–3.31".
- Lying edge support was rated Outstanding.
- Sitting at the very edge still produces more compression than lying near it.
Edge testing measured 3.19–3.31 inches of sitting compression and outstanding stability while lying near the perimeter. The combination gives couples and edge sleepers unusually dependable use of the full mattress width.
Support at the mattress perimeter
We measure seated compression, then check how secure the surface remains while lying directly along the edge.
- Response mostly recovered in 0.196–0.204 sec. and fully recovered in 0.29–0.31 sec.
- Bounce measured 9.27–9.65".
- The lively surface may feel too active if you want a dead-calm foam bed.
Response mostly recovered in 0.196–0.204 seconds and fully recovered in 0.29–0.31 seconds, while bounce measured 9.27–9.65 inches and sinkage 1.78–1.86 inches. That fast-moving profile is exceptionally easy to reposition on.
- Current construction uses a 13-inch profile with a 3-inch Grid and 10-inch CoolFlex coils.
- The 10-inch coil unit gives the mattress a substantial support core.
- Long-term owner feedback for the current generation remains limited.
The 13-inch construction combines a 3-inch GelFlex Grid, 10-inch CoolFlex coil system, and strong edge-support system. These are strong construction signals, but a strong initial odor took about 26.3 days to clear and the current generation does not yet have an extensive long-term owner record.

What the claims mean in practice
Fit and feel
Supported with caveatsPurple positions RestorePremier around a soft feel, deep Grid contouring, and side/combination fit.
Testing and current customer reviews support a strong comfort story, but the Grid feel is still personal and the soft surface is not ideal for every stomach sleeper.
Try Purple first if you are unsure about the Grid feel.
Cooling and responsiveness
SupportedPurple says the RestorePremier offers its coolest Restore sleep through the Grid and CoolFlex coils.
Supported by the open 3-inch Grid, shallow sinkage, and 10-inch CoolFlex coil system.
Hot sleepers have a clear reason to consider RestorePremier if they also like the feel.
Policy and price
Supported with caveatsPurple promotes the 100-night trial, 10-year warranty, 30-day price match, and premium Restore build.
Supported, but the 21-night minimum, refund deductions, warranty documentation, and current Queen price still matter.
Check the current cart and keep all warranty records.

What buyers report after living with it
RestorePremier Reddit discussion is useful but not broad. Shoppers and owners praise the pressure relief, side-sleeper comfort, and showroom appeal, while the recurring cautions are price, personal fit, and whether RestorePlus is enough of the same Purple feel for less.
Purple's current customer reviews show a high review average and visible recent reviews that mention support, comfort, back-pain relief, reduced wakeups, and just-right firmness. Brand hosted reviews are useful context, but their positive pattern should be read alongside the measured performance and the protections offered to buyers.

Policy details that can change the decision
Purple lists a 100-night trial with a 21-night minimum before return or exchange.
Trial length only helps if the buyer also understands the minimum tryout period and channel rules.
Purple says it or an authorized partner will arrange mattress removal for eligible direct returns, with refund deductions possible for discounts, interest, and transportation charges.
The trial helps, but the refund and logistics language still matter.
Purple lists a 10-year limited mattress warranty for the original purchaser.
Warranty language is not a comfort guarantee and depends on support, condition, and eligibility rules.
Purple says compatible supports include a solid surface, slats less than 3.5 inches apart, or an adjustable base tested to at least 750 lb.
An incompatible base can affect comfort and warranty coverage.

Configuration evaluatedStandard cover · brand label Soft · measured Medium-Firm 6/10 · 13-inch profile
Construction & materials
CoverSoftFlex / Keep Fresh cover with moisture-wicking and antimicrobial finish · Top
The cover is designed to stretch with the Grid, wick moisture, and help the surface stay breathable. As the surface textile, it chiefly affects the initial hand feel, moisture movement, and how readily heat leaves the sleeper; it supplies little of the mattress's deep support.
Why it matters: Across the Purple RestorePremier Hybrid Mattress, shallow sinkage limits close body contact and heat buildup. Treat the cover as one part of thermal comfort rather than proof that the mattress will stay cool for every sleeper.
Comfort gridGelFlex Grid · Top comfort
3"
Purple lists a 3-inch Grid for pressure relief, airflow, and the brand's buoyant surface feel. The flexible grid yields under concentrated load while less-loaded areas remain raised, combining pressure redistribution with open channels through the comfort layer.
Why it matters: For the Purple RestorePremier Hybrid Mattress as a whole, sinkage measured around 1.82", with a 3-inch comfort Grid. Its feel is more distinct than conventional foam, so the recorded sinkage and pressure result are more useful than assuming every sleeper will like the grid sensation.
Edge supportEdge support system · Perimeter
The perimeter system is intended to preserve the edge and improve usable mattress width. This reinforcement is intended to resist perimeter compression, helping the outer sleeping surface remain usable when someone sits or lies near the side.
Why it matters: In the finished Purple RestorePremier Hybrid Mattress, sitting-edge compression measured around 3.25". The meaningful check is the finished mattress’s seated compression and lying stability, not the presence of an edge-support label by itself.
Comfort foamUltra Comfort foam · Transition
Breathable foam adds cradling pressure relief and temperature balance. This layer buffers the sleeper from the firmer support core and controls how gradually resistance increases as the body sinks deeper.
Why it matters: Across the Purple RestorePremier Hybrid Mattress, sinkage measured around 1.82". It becomes especially important for higher-weight sleepers and back or stomach sleepers, who engage more of the mattress depth than lighter sleepers.
CoolFlex coil system10-inch CoolFlex coils with Ultra Comfort Foam Tops · Support core
10"
The coil system provides airflow, pushback, and a more cooling-focused support design than the entry Restore models. This is the mattress’s main load-bearing spring unit. Pocketed coils, when used here, compress more locally than connected springs while leaving open space for airflow and rebound.
Why it matters: For the Purple RestorePremier Hybrid Mattress as a whole, sinkage measured around 1.82". This layer supplies most of the deep pushback for alignment, but the foams or fibers above it still determine initial pressure relief and contour.
