Which mattress feels softer?
They land in the same place on firmness — 6.0/10 (medium) and 6.0/10 (medium). What differs is the way each one gets there: Hybrid against Hybrid, so the initial give feels different even though the support level is the same.
Which is better for side sleepers?
Effectively a tie — 8.7 against 8.9 once we weight pressure relief, spine alignment and motion isolation. Side sleeping rewards a comfort layer that lets the shoulder in without letting the hips twist out of line. See our full ranking.
Which is better for back sleepers?
Effectively a tie — 8.7 against 8.8 once we weight spine alignment, support and responsiveness. Back sleeping is decided by whether the hips stay level with the shoulders once you settle.
Which is better for stomach sleepers?
Effectively a tie — 8.8 against 8.9 once we weight spine alignment and support. Stomach sleeping needs the hips held up; the firmer, better-supported surface almost always wins here.
Which is better for heavier sleepers?
Effectively a tie — 8.7 against 8.8 once we weight pressure relief, support, durability outlook and edge support. Heavier bodies compress a comfort layer further, so support and edge behaviour matter more than plushness. We do not make durability claims beyond our published durability outlook. See our full ranking.
Which sleeps cooler?
This is a tie: Purple Restore Plus scores 9.3/10 for cooling and Purple Restore Premier scores 9.5/10. A gap that small is not something you would notice in your own bedroom, so decide on something else.
Which isolates motion better?
This is a tie: Purple Restore Plus scores 8.2/10 for motion isolation and Purple Restore Premier scores 8.3/10. A gap that small is not something you would notice in your own bedroom, so decide on something else.
Which has better edge support?
This is a tie: Purple Restore Plus scores 8.5/10 for edge support and Purple Restore Premier scores 8.5/10. A gap that small is not something you would notice in your own bedroom, so decide on something else.
Which is easier to move around on?
This is a tie: Purple Restore Plus scores 8.4/10 for responsiveness and Purple Restore Premier scores 8.4/10. A gap that small is not something you would notice in your own bedroom, so decide on something else.
Which is better for couples?
Effectively a tie — 8.6 against 8.7 once we weight motion isolation, edge support, cooling and responsiveness. Couples are a trade-off: motion isolation and edge support pull in opposite directions to responsiveness, and cooling decides whether two bodies in one bed stay comfortable. See our full ranking.
Which is better for sex?
Effectively a tie — 8.6 against 8.6 once we weight responsiveness, edge support and cooling. This comes down to how quickly the surface springs back and whether the edges hold — the same qualities that make a bed easy to move around on. See our full ranking.
Which is the better value?
Purple Restore Plus takes it, 7.2 against 6.8 on the value score, read next to the queen price. Value is not simply the cheaper bed. Queen prices here are $2,799 for Purple Restore Plus and $3,499 for Purple Restore Premier, and the trial and warranty terms in the table are part of what you are buying. Purple Restore Premier is the alternative if the firmness or the price suits you better.
Trial, warranty and returns
Purple Restore Plus: 100 nights trial, 10-Year Limited warranty. Purple Restore Premier: 100 nights trial, 10-Year Limited warranty. Those are the manufacturers’ own terms, read from our product record; Yawnder’s separate in-store purchase terms are listed on our own policy pages and are not the same thing.
