Nectar Vs. Purple Vs. Casper: Which Mattress is Best?

The Nectar mattress is comfortable and convenient, especially for people that change up their sleeping position during the night. It does a great job of gently conforming to your body, but without feeling too soft. There’s a good firm feeling too, making it perfect for taking the pain out of pressure points.

It’s different from a typical foam mattress because it uses hyper elastic, medical grade memory foam. The result is a comfortable, well balanced feel that isn’t hard, but gives you just enough support. The movement isolation is pretty impressive too. Nectar mattress is one of those mattresses where you actually can set a glass of water on one side and bounce around on the other. It won’t tip over and spill, so you know there’s no motion transfer. If you or your partner is a light sleeper, this mattress becomes a total game changer.

The mattress moves to support your body form and weight quickly. Even if you usually roll around and switch positions through the night, you won’t notice a difference in the support. The other nice thing about this Nectar mattress is that it’s so easy to set up. While it’s a little heavy in the package, it quickly expands to the right size when opened. With two pillows designed to match the mattress included, it’s pretty much a whole sleep makeover. The temperature stays fairly neutral, so you won’t wake up in a sweat pool either.

The best way to explain this mattress is to say no matter how you sleep, it feels comfortable. Even stomach and side sleepers can get a great night’s sleep with the Nectar mattress.

This Nectar mattress is the company's latest model with sophisticated cooling features to prevent overheating in bed at night and advanced support layers. Nectar mattress memory foam feels primarily targets hot sleepers who fancy the classic cushioning of a memory foam mattress.

 
A typical all foam mattress is known to sleep hot since they retain excessive heat, creating an uncomfortable sleep surface, especially for victims of overheating. However, the premium copper in this mattress utilizes an advanced cooling technology to help you sleep comfortably and wake up in the morning sweat-free.

 
Motion isolation is also another perk this mattress comes with. So if your partner is prone to restlessness at night or if both of you have different sleep habits or schedules, then you can be sure of an undisturbed night's rest. The weak edge support in this Nectar mattress may be a rude awakening, especially for individuals who tend to roll a lot while sleeping.

The Purple mattress feels great, but it really does wonders for people that struggle with back pain. One of the biggest strengths of this mattress is the way it keeps your spine aligned, which prevents an aching back when you wake up. It’s designed to minimize the strain on sensitive pressure points, while also supporting all the areas that need it most. You don’t really feel the pressure from the support in this Purple mattress, so you can drift off without noticing there’s a mattress beneath you.

The mattress is designed with a special hyper elastic grid that provides a ton of benefits. First, the support is really nice, and it’s dynamic enough to adjust to your body. The other nice thing about the grid is that it allows plenty of airflow. Memory foam mattresses are somewhat notorious for trapping heat. For hot sleepers, that can be an absolute deal breaker. With the grid, this memory foam mattress stays nice and cool since air flows through to disperse body heat.

While you may not seek out an antimicrobial mattress, it’s definitely a huge benefit. The Purple mattress is naturally antimicrobial, no chemicals needed. Mattresses can last a long time, and in that time, they can also absorb a lot of bacteria, dust and dirt. With its antimicrobial properties, you can rest easy knowing your mattress is still fresh with each new year.

As a bonus, these mattresses also last up to a decade longer than others, so your investment lasts even longer. If you’re still not sure if it’s right for you, take advantage of the 100 night trial and try it out yourself.

Of all the Purple beds, this hybrid premium model is the deepest. Compared to other Purple mattress models, which have 2 inches of Purple Grid, this one has 4 inches.

 
Construction-wise, this mattress has a total of 4 layers. At the base is the 4-inch proprietary hyper elastic polymer layer responsible for the mattress, overall support, pressure relief, and unique soft feel. On top of this layer is the 0.5-inch polyurethane foam layer which acts as a transition from the below coils.

 
The 7.5-inch pocketed coils layer comes next, and it serves as the mattress's main support. Final layer is the 1-inch of polyurethane foam layer which basically serves as the mattress's foundation. Most Purple mattresses are hypoallergenic which makes them ideal for allergy sufferers and resistant to dust mites.

 
As for sleeping positions, the purple hybrid premier mattress is a flagship for side sleepers. That's because its thick top layer offers an immersive pressure-relieving experience. But if you're more of a back or stomach sleeper, you can bet on excellent support from the mattress as well.

One of the hardest parts about buying a mattress is making sure it feels right with your body type. A medium firm mattress may feel too soft for a larger person. Likewise, a smaller person may find the exact same mattress much too hard. Of course, it's a relief to see there’s finally a mattress that has the same great feel, no matter your weight or height. You don’t lose any of the support your back needs, either. Even people that struggle mainly with lower back pain get plenty of relief, since it perfectly supports your hips.

Most ‘bed in a box’ style mattresses have a major weakness - edge support. Want to sit on your bed to put on your socks or tie your shoes? With most mattresses, you’ll be sliding off before you get a single sock on. With the Casper mattress? Go ahead; in fact lace up those really tough boots too. All of that’s to say, their edge support is great, which is a rare bonus in this market.

Casper mattress is one of those mattresses you don’t have to take a week to ‘get used to.’ If you usually struggle with getting to sleep, you’ll find that you won’t with a Casper mattress. You can start sleeping on it quicker than other mattresses you order online too. For some mattresses, even 48 hours doesn’t seem like enough time to fully inflate.

With this memory foam mattress though, it seems like it’s only a few minutes after you unpack it and it reaches full size. Plus, there’s not that terrible, strong factory smell like with other mattresses, so you can actually enjoy sleeping on it the first night. It’s more affordable than other options, and it comes with a good 10 year limited warranty and 100 nights free trial.

One of the significantly recognized bed in a box mattresses is the Casper Wave Hybrid mattress. Its super soft mattress cover is gray. Plus, it's removable and relatively easy to clean. So in case of accidental spills, say, warm milk cleaning it with a mild detergent should do the trick.

Underneath this cover is 5 layers making up the mattress's 13-inch thickness. Besides its unusual thickness, this hybrid mattress possesses advanced features separating it from other average mattresses. The mattress has a support foam layer serving as its foundation. The polyfoam gel-pods layer promotes healthy spinal alignment, courtesy of its strategic position at the core and the lower back.

Zoned memory foam is divided into 3 for more support and pressure relief, while the natural latex foam "Airfoam" -designed layer serves as the mattress's breathable transition layer. In addition, this layer also adds slightly to the mattress's overall responsiveness. Serving as the mattress's primary comfort is the perforated comfort foam layer. With its thin cooling gel coating, this layer significantly helped regulate temperature.
