Need Help Deciding?
For most sleepers, we recommend the Purple Restore Premier Soft over the Aireloom Preferred Plush. It scores higher in motion isolation, edge support and delivers stronger overall value. The Aireloom Preferred Plush is the better choice only if you have a strong preference for that brand's specific feel or design.
Aireloom Preferred Plush vs Purple Restore Premier Soft: What Actually Differs
The Aireloom Preferred Plush is a innerspring build, while the Purple Restore Premier Soft is a hybrid (innerspring vs gel-grid-hybrid) — that single difference drives most of the cooling, motion, and feel decisions below. The Purple Restore Premier Soft stands 15" tall versus 14" for the Aireloom Preferred Plush — a 1.0" gap that matters if you need deep-pocket sheets or are pairing with an adjustable base. Both sit at roughly 3/10 on the firmness scale — a medium-soft feel — so neither one is the answer if you need a dramatically different support level. The single largest performance gap is in motion isolation: the Purple Restore Premier Soft rates noticeably higher than the Aireloom Preferred Plush, which is the deciding factor if that dimension is high on your list. On a Queen, the Aireloom Preferred Plush runs $3,799 versus $3,999 for the Purple Restore Premier Soft — roughly $200 (5%) less, which is enough to factor into the decision unless the pricier model wins clearly on the specs you care about. Trial periods aren't symmetrical either: the Purple Restore Premier Soft ships with a 100-night sleep trial versus 30 nights for the Aireloom Preferred Plush, giving you a longer in-home runway to send it back if the feel doesn't land.
Which Is Better For Your Sleep Style?
Both rate the same for pressure relief — choose on firmness instead (side sleepers usually prefer the softer of the two: Aireloom Preferred Plush at 3/10).
Firmness of 3.5/10 is closer to the medium-firm sweet spot back sleepers need for lumbar support (vs 3/10).
Firmer at 3.5/10 vs 3/10 — stomach sleepers need the extra support to keep the pelvis from sinking and arching the lower back.
Cooling rated the same on both — neither has a heat-management edge in our spec data.
stronger perimeter / edge support — the two specs heavier sleepers should weight most.
Softer at 3/10 vs 3.5/10 — lighter sleepers compress less, so they typically need the softer of two options to get proper contouring.
Higher motion-isolation rating, which means less disturbance when a partner moves or gets out of bed.

Aireloom Preferred Plush
Strengths
- ✓Exceptional plush feel from natural wool and cashmere — unmatched by synthetic alternatives
- ✓Hand-tufted to preserve the integrity of thick comfort layers over time
- ✓Natural materials breathe freely — sleeps cooler than plush foam mattresses
Considerations
- —A significant investment — reflects handcrafted coil-on-coil construction with natural fibers — a level of artisan craftsmanship few manufacturers still practice
- —Plush innerspring has higher motion transfer than foam for couples
- —Limited availability — specialty retail only
Purple Restore Premier Soft
Strengths
- ✓4" GelFlex Grid — the thickest grid layer across the Purple lineup for maximum pressure relief
- ✓Grid technology simultaneously supports and relieves — unique to Purple
- ✓Exceptional temperature regulation — open grid structure doesn't trap heat
- ✓Premium coil base adds edge support and motion isolation
Considerations
- —May not fit all budgets — reflects proprietary GelFlex Grid manufacturing — the polymer grid requires specialized tooling and processes that foam production does not
- —GelFlex Grid feel is distinctly different — some find it unusual at first
Amerisleep AS5 Hybrid
Strengths
- ✓Softest feel with coil support underneath — won't bottom out like ultra-soft foam-only beds
- ✓Better airflow than the all-foam AS5
- ✓HIVE® zoned support compensates for plush surface
Considerations
- —Still very soft — not suitable for back or stomach sleepers
- —May not fit all budgets — premium materials and construction above mainstream mattress standards
