Nectar vs Puffy (2020)
Who conks out first?

Ding ding ding - Puffy may be a sweaty mess, but only 1 mattress still stands: Nectar. Nectar carts you off to award-winning Dreamland with the latest sleep tech. So you sleep cool and wake up smiley. Whereas Stuffy Puffy holds you in a drenched bear hug with its 5 out of 10 firmness rating*. *According to Sleep Foundation

“Knew we made the right decision”
“We began looking for a new mattress last year. We thought we were sold on the Purple Mattress. Only a week maybe two on it and we both woke up in tons of pain. Then ordered the Nectar right way and when we got it, it took us two nights to know we made the right decision”

“Love this mattress, and price!”
“Bought a Purple mattress, it didn’t agree with my back. Bought the Nectar, and it cleared up my back issues. Love this mattress, and price!!”

(not with purple-colored Purple branding)

Purple compares to Nectar only where the industry agrees: free shipping, similar firmness. Purple claims to be built for comfort, but its core is made of elastic polymer - aka rubber. Layered memory foam like you’ll find in Nectar is the gold standard if you want a comfortable night’s sleep, night after night.

The problem with Purple’s Purple Grid™

You’ve heard of Purple. They’ve paid $$$ for ads that get your attention. (Remember Poopourri ads? Same team did Purple ads. Very, very good advertisers.) And maybe you noticed the Purple Grid™ in those ads and liked what you saw.

But read this again:
Nobody else in the industry is using a rubber grid.

Why not? Here are a few reasons:

  • The Purple Grid™ lasts “as long as ordinary mattresses(1),” according to Purple. (Which is between 7 and 10 years.) But top-quality memory foam, like what you’ll get with Nectar, lasts and lasts. That’s why Nectar is confident in giving you a lifetime guarantee. And Purple can give you only 10 years.
  • “Purple” is a really great marketing company. The ads are purple. The grid is purple. Purple is… purple. But peel back the layers and you have 2 inches of weird rubber. Word about Nectar spreads more naturally. Why? Because happy sleepers tell their friends, who tell their friends, who tell their friends. It’s about quality, not ads and gimmicks.
  • The Purple Grid™ lays on foam because foam is supportive. But Nectar skipped all the rubbery-plastic gridding and went straight for the goods: 5-layers of both top-quality memory foam and breathable covers which work together to cradle and cool you, season after season.
