It is formally the top of an period for me. I slept on the Purple Hybrid Premier 3 mattress for 5 years. I’ve since swapped it out for a distinct mattress, however I’ll summarize my very lengthy expertise with that mattress.
One factor I actually appreciated about this mattress is the distinctive really feel of the mattress. All Purple mattresses have a Purple Grid that helps relieve stress. This proprietary cushioning expertise offers this mattress a snug really feel like no different.
Earlier than I get into the nitty-gritty, it is vital to notice that the Purple mattress I’ve slept on for 5 years is not out there. Purple has up to date its complete lineup, however I feel it is nonetheless priceless to speak about my expertise sleeping on this explicit mattress, as a result of a number of of the brand new Purple beds could have an analogous really feel.
The Purple Hybrid Premier 3 was one among Purple’s top-tier mattresses.
First impressions
At any time when anybody tries out a Purple mattress for the primary time, they’ve a fairly sturdy response, by some means. Individuals will lie on it and instantly fall in love with the sensation, whereas others will attempt it out and assume the texture is a little bit too unusual — primarily as a result of the Purple Hybrid Premier mattress (or any Purple mattress for that matter) might be not like any mattress you have tried up to now (due to the Purple Grid we talked about earlier).
Once I first tried the Purple Hybrid Premier mattress, I assumed, “That is so comfy. I’ve by no means tried something this comfy earlier than, and I actually wanna be sleeping on this factor.” 5 years later, you actually get used to the sensation, and the Purple mattress finally ends up simply feeling extra like a responsive, comfortable mattress.
The firmness and really feel of the Purple Hybrid Premier 3
Really feel
The very first thing we begin with when discussing Purple beds is the mattress’s proprietary consolation layer known as the Purple Grid.
It is gone by way of a number of completely different identify adjustments over time that I’ve slept on this mattress, however the materials has remained the identical. It is this actually stretchy, squishy, responsive materials that nearly resembles a Dr. Scholl’s insole. It is primarily Purple’s bread and butter, and it has a really distinctive really feel if you first begin sleeping on the mattress.

Firmness
The Purple Hybrid Premier 3 got here in just one firmness possibility. When my workforce and I examined it, we discovered it to be round a medium, which works rather well for me as a result of I am extra of a aspect and again sleeper. Nonetheless, Purple revamped its mattress assortment to offer extra decisions.
Now if you take a look at a brand new Purple Restore mattress, you possibly can select between gentle or agency.
Who’s the Purple Hybrid Premier finest for?
Sleeping place
I typically go to sleep on my aspect, however oftentimes I will get up on my again or aspect. However It feels easy to rotate between sleeping positions on a Purple, which helps me cope with fewer disruptions in the course of the evening. And due to its medium firmness degree, the Purple Hybrid Premier accommodates each my sleeping positions.
Physique kind
I am a bit heavier, which implies I felt the Purple Hybrid Premier 3 to be a little bit bit softer than a medium. This truly labored out nicely for me as a result of I primarily sleep on my aspect, and aspect sleepers typically want softer beds. My sleeping companion, then again, is extra of a abdomen sleeper, and although they’re extra light-weight than me, they did develop some minor again ache over time and would’ve been higher served by a barely firmer mattress (which now we have now). This simply goes to point out how subjective firmness could be.

Movement isolation
The responsive nature of the Purple mattress is one thing I loved the whole time, as a result of I am extra of a aspect and mixture sleeper. That stated, it is not actually one thing my sleeping companion appreciated, as a result of my tossing and turning typically woke them up in the midst of the evening. I would not say that was due to the mattress’ incapacity to isolate movement, nonetheless. The responsiveness is simply one thing you may need to cope with in case you’re somebody who tosses and turns loads at evening. If that is the case and your companion is a lightweight sleeper, a reminiscence foam mattress that deters you from tossing and turning may be a greater proposition.

Temperature
One factor Purple loves to speak about on its web site is how nicely these beds regulate temperature. There aren’t any actual Purple beds that our check workforce would classify as “lively cooling,” however because of that gel flex grid materials, the Purple beds do sleep temperature-neutral.
I slept on this factor for quite a lot of scorching summers and did not actually have temperature points. I might nonetheless have to crank the AC in my bed room when it bought tremendous scorching out throughout July and August, however the mattress did a stable job of regulating temperature. I feel that’ll be one thing you may take pleasure in a few Purple mattress in case you resolve to get one for your self.
Sturdiness
One other factor Purple likes to level out about its mattresses is their sturdiness. I agree with this — to a sure extent.
The gel-flex materials goes to be essentially the most sturdy. I do not actually see that stuff degrading over time, not like sure foams. The remainder of the mattress had the identical elements you’d discover in most different mattresses, like coils and foams, and people will degrade over time. Nevertheless it wasn’t one thing I observed within the 5 years I slept on this mattress. Its guarantee is 10 years, so that you would not actually anticipate any points after 5 years. Till the 10-year mark, I feel the gel flex materials would maintain up rather well.
Closing ideas
I do not actually have something main to complain about. I slept nice for a extremely very long time. The primary motive my companion and I are swapping it out is as a result of my vital different wished one thing completely different. It is at all times an enormous problem to discover a brand-new mattress that satisfies two several types of sleepers.
I additionally did not actually expertise any persistent aches and pains throughout my complete five-year span of sleeping on the Purple Hybrid Premier 3-inch. I am not somebody who typically has aches and pains. I am nonetheless fairly back-pain-free, regardless of being in my 30s. Although I feel that has much less to do with the Purple Hybrid Premier 3 mattress itself and extra to do with the truth that its firmness degree works rather well for me and my sleeping preferences.
My physique adjusted to the very distinctive really feel of the Purple mattress very quickly. It’s a must to make the most of that 100-night trial interval for any mattress, however particularly for Purple, to search out out in case you prefer it.
It is the top of an period for me and my companion, however we’re excited concerning the new Purple mattress lineup. The check workforce could have some extra details about these brand-new Purple beds quickly, as we end going by way of the testing course of.
