Beautyrest Black X-Class Medium Pillow Top
Strengths
- ✓Highest coil count and thickest BlackICE cooling in the Beautyrest lineup
- ✓16" height — true luxury-tier mattress construction
- ✓Best pressure relief and cooling of any Beautyrest model
Considerations
- —Among the most premium options in this category — reflects premium materials and construction above mainstream mattress standards
- —Mattress Firm exclusive — no 365-night trial available
Purple Luxe
Strengths
- ✓4" GelFlex Grid — most pressure-relieving Purple mattress ever made
- ✓Premium-grade coil system with reinforced edges
- ✓Virtually zero heat retention
Considerations
- —Top-tier model in the lineup — premium specifications and materials compared to sibling models
- —Plush feel not ideal for stomach sleepers needing firm support
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
