Purple Restore Premier 2025 Review
The ultimate hybrid mattress with revolutionary GelFlex Grid technology for cooling and pressure relief
Purple Restore Premier
After 90 nights of testing, I can honestly say the Purple Restore Premier has transformed my sleep quality. As someone who's always been a hot sleeper, I was skeptical about yet another "cooling" mattress claim. But this one actually delivers.
The first thing you notice is the unique gel-like feel of the GelFlex Grid. It's nothing like memory foam – instead of slowly sinking in, you feel immediately supported with a gentle "bounce back." My wife was initially concerned about the unusual texture, but within a week, we both adapted and now prefer it to our old memory foam mattress.
The cooling is real. I used to wake up sweating around 3 AM, especially during summer months. With the Purple, I consistently sleep through the night without overheating. The airflow through the grid structure is noticeable – you can actually feel air moving when you press down on the mattress.
As a side sleeper with occasional lower back issues, the pressure relief has been remarkable. My hips and shoulders feel properly supported without that "stuck in quicksand" feeling I experienced with traditional memory foam. When I do flip to my back during the night, the transition feels natural and comfortable.
The downsides? The price is steep – there's no getting around that. And if you're used to the slow, enveloping feel of memory foam, the Purple's responsiveness might feel too "bouncy" initially. But for hot sleepers seeking pressure relief without the heat trap, it's worth every penny.
"If you're a hot sleeper who's tried everything else, the Purple Restore Premier is worth the investment. The cooling technology actually works, and the pressure relief is exceptional for side sleepers. Just be prepared for a unique sleep experience that's unlike anything else on the market."
The revolutionary GelFlex Grid creates airflow channels that actively dissipate heat, making this ideal for hot sleepers who struggle with temperature regulation.
The unique grid structure flexes under pressure points while maintaining support, providing exceptional relief for hips and shoulders during side sleeping.
Instant response time (10/10 rating) means the mattress quickly adapts to movement, making it excellent for combination sleepers and intimate activities.

The GelFlex Grid Technology
The Purple Restore Premier's defining feature is its 3-inch GelFlex Grid layer. This innovative design creates a unique "gel-like" feel that's unlike traditional memory foam or latex. The grid structure allows air to flow freely, preventing heat buildup while providing targeted support where you need it most.
Our testing revealed exceptional pressure relief, particularly for side and back sleepers. The grid flexes under pressure points like hips and shoulders while maintaining firm support for your core, promoting proper spinal alignment throughout the night.
Sleep Position Suitability
✓ Side Sleepers
Excellent pressure relief for hips and shoulders. The grid contours perfectly to body curves.
✓ Back Sleepers
Medium-firm support maintains spinal alignment while providing comfort.
⚠ Stomach Sleepers
May sink too deeply for optimal stomach sleeping support.
Temperature Regulation
With a cooling score of 9.0/10, the Purple Restore Premier excels at temperature regulation. The open grid structure creates natural airflow channels, while the pocketed coil base enhances breathability. Hot sleepers consistently report staying cool throughout the night.
Motion Transfer & Edge Support
While the hybrid construction provides excellent edge support (9.9/10), motion transfer scores moderately at 6.7/10. The responsive nature of the grid means some movement is transferred, though it's less disruptive than traditional innerspring mattresses.
Edge support is outstanding, with minimal compression when sitting on the mattress edge. You can sleep comfortably right to the edge without feeling like you might roll off.
Perfect For:
- • Hot sleepers who overheat on traditional mattresses
- • Side and back sleepers needing pressure relief
- • Those who want a unique, responsive sleep experience
- • Couples needing excellent edge support
- • People who change positions frequently during sleep
Consider Alternatives If:
- • You're on a tight budget (premium pricing)
- • You prefer traditional memory foam feel
- • You're a heavier sleeper needing extra support
- • You sleep primarily on your stomach
- • You're sensitive to motion transfer
The Purple Restore Premier 2025 delivers on its promises of exceptional cooling and pressure relief. While the premium price and unique feel won't suit everyone, it's an outstanding choice for hot sleepers and those seeking innovative sleep technology.
