Frequently asked questions
It depends on how you sleep and what kind of support you're after. The Purple Pillow gives you the firmest, most ergonomic support with a solid slab of GelFlex Grid — no-fluff structure for head and neck. The Purple Harmony Pillow is our best seller and best for side sleepers, wrapping a Talalay latex core in a full 360° Honeycomb GelFlex Grid for airy, buoyant comfort. The Purple Freeform Pillow offers the best neck support with a fully moldable core you shape to your exact preference. The Purple DreamLayer Pillow is our #1 for cooling. And the Purple GridCloud Pillow blends a GelFlex Grid top layer with plush down-alternative fill for a softer, cloud-like feel. Every GelFlex Grid pillow comes with a 30-night trial, so you can find your fit risk-free.
Both the Purple Pillow and the Purple Harmony Pillow offer optimal airflow and instantly adaptive comfort due to our proprietary GelFlex Grid. The key difference is the formulation and structure of the Grid within each pillow. The Purple Pillow is made of a solid 3-inch layer of grid-shaped Hyper-Elastic Polymer in a dense formulation that provides firm support for head and neck.
In comparison, the Purple Harmony Pillow uses a softer formulation of our Hyper-Elastic Polymer in a unique honeycomb-shaped structure. The Honeycomb GelFlex Grid is integrated into the pillow cover for a complete 360-degree wrap that encircles and enhances a breathable Talalay Latex core. This design and formulation provides gentle pressure relief optimized for delicate facial features while the all-around wrap ensures a consistently cool surface.
Due to their different GelFlex Grid make-ups, the Purple Pillow offers firm, no-fluff support while the Purple Harmony Pillow offers medium support with an airy, delicate feel.
Purple's proprietary comfort technology, a flexible gel-like polymer arranged in a grid pattern that adapts instantly to your body — collapsing under pressure and snapping back as you move — for targeted pressure relief, airflow, and consistent support.
Honeycomb GelFlex Grid is a layer of temperature-neutral Hyper-Elastic Polymer. It's engineered to provide a cool, breathable surface and pressure relief that's gentle on facial features. The soft, hexagon-shaped grid contours to the face, head and neck providing support where you need it and pressure relief where you want it, and the air channels optimize the dynamic response and airflow for unbelievable comfort. Featured in the Purple Harmony Pillow, Purple Freeform Pillow, and Purple Harmony Anywhere Pillow.
Purple's down-alternative pillows include the Purple Cloud and Purple TwinCloud Pillows, which are made with breathable, hypoallergenic silky fibers that create the traditional cloud-like fluff of a down-alternative pillow. They do not contain a GelFlex Grid component which is found in the Purple Harmony, Purple Harmony Anywhere, Freeform, DreamLayer, and Purple Pillows. The proprietary innovation found within Purple's GelFlex Grid pillows balances temperature, cradles head and neck with conforming comfort, and delivers adaptive support.
Yes — temperature management is built into the material itself. The GelFlex Grid is engineered with hundreds of open air channels that let heat move through instead of building up against your face and neck, so it helps regulate temperature all night instead of trapping it. Pair that with a moisture-wicking cover, and every GelFlex Grid pillow in this lineup — Harmony, DreamLayer, Freeform, the Purple Pillow, and GridCloud — is built to help you fall asleep faster and stay asleep without waking up overheated. DreamLayer takes it furthest, pairing GelFlex Grid with breathable MicroAir Foam® for our #1 cooling pick of the group.
