Purple's award
Customer Satisfaction
Fill your home with ZZZs
(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 Nectar Mattress

Breathable Cooling Cover
Our signature cover is designed with innovative cooling technology for a refreshing rest. It features heat-absorbent polyethylene fibers that help wick excess body heat away to promote cool sleep.
Therapeutic Gel-Infused Memory Foam
Two inches of CertiPUR-US® Certified gel memory foam contours to your every curve. Plush gel memory foam offers pressure-relieving support and sleeps cooler than traditional memory foam.
Dynamic Response Layer
Three inches of conventional CertiPUR-US® Certified foam provides support while allowing airflow, plus crucial rebound and bounce. This responsive layer helps minimize motion transfer and promotes better spinal alignment.
ActiveSupport Stability Base Layer
Seven inches of conventional CertiPUR-US® Certified foam ensures structure, so the layers above it perform at their peak. This durable layer is the foundation for better sleep.
Shift-Resistant Lower Cover
The soft stitchbond polyester cover helps the inner core of your mattress stay in place, and prevents each of the layers from shifting on top of each other.
The Purple Mattress

Cover
Separates your sleeping body from the purple rubber grid.
The Hyper-Elastic Polymer® Purple Grid™
It’s rubber. It’s 2” thick. And you won’t see anything like it in the industry. Purple acts like that’s a good thing, but... why aren’t others adopting similar tech?
Foam
Even with wacky new tech, Purple is still relying on memory foam - and not the gel-infused variety.
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.
And Really, People Just Aren’t That Into The Purple Rubber Grid Thing.
“It’s the most comfortable mattress.”
Nectar layered memory foam is right for all sleep types.
