Purple vs Sleep Number
Deflating the hype
Sleep Number offers 100 air settings — 99 of them you don’t like and 1 you (hopefully) do. We take the guesswork out of sleep, giving you the comfort you want and the proven relief your body needs with no nighttime fussing or fiddling required.
No power outlets, no problems
"I definitely want more screentime before bed,” said no one. Apps aren’t the answer when it comes to mattress comfort. Only Purple’s GelFlex Grid offers relief that conforms precisely to your pressure points.
Don’t let the inflated marketing fool you. Couples sleep better on the GelFlex Grid because it adapts to every body shape + weight — customized feel without sunken costs and break-prone parts.
Fans under the mattress? No thank you. With Purple, there’s no need because the GelFlex Grid is naturally breathable for ideal sleep temperatures all night long.
I have owned 4 Sleep Number beds... The Purple mattress is the best sleep I have had in 30 years. I no longer get up so stiff I have to lay in hot water to move. Wish I had this years ago.
