Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Purple has a similar grid feel for cheaper.
  • Purple and Tempur pedic are high end (I’ve also sold both brands, and sleep on a Tempur)
  • Purple. This has been with me for a long time. I bought it the day it was released in 94. I was excited because they released the vinyl before the cd. Was also surprised the record itself was translucent purple.
  • The purples are very beloved... people do like that up on the bed feel while it’s still hugs you like memory foam without the sink.
  • Buy it through Costco so that if you don’t like it they will let you return it and pick it up hassle free. And also lay on it in a display room beforehand, as purple is definitely a unique material.

Cons

  • I’ve been leaning purple but I’ve read the longevity on purple isn’t amazing.
  • Do not buy a purple! They don’t last.
  • Saatva was a brand I was looking into along with Purple and temprapedic. But knowing how much they spend on advertising makes me hesitant.
  • I will say that Purple isn't for everyone. I personally like the Gel Grid, and I'm around 295 lbs. I'm heavier enough to compress the top layers and get good pressure relief on most of the Purple models. Again, it's a unique-feeling matt...
  • In my opinion, Purple has always been a gimmick. Albeit a successful one but still

I settled on a purple but i did not use any topper anywhere, instead i decided to try one of those cheap “fix sagging mattresses” foam things, it’s a firmer foam but in a shape where it is not a static height, but like ramps with a plateau where i aligned to my lumbar lower back area and its worked for me since
