BedInABox® vs Purple

As boxed mattresses have increased in popularity over the last decade, the number of competitors who sell a mattress in a box through ecommerce platforms has also increased. BedInABox® is the original mattress in a box that gave rise to the ecommerce mattress industry by allowing customers the ability to buy mattresses from the comfort of their home. Over time, the process for compressing, rolling, and packaging a mattress into a box, as well as selling and purchasing mattresses online, has become much more practical. While BedInABox® mattresses have always been constructed with high quality memory foam that is manufactured right here in the USA, some of our competitors use other technologies and materials. Purple is well known for the Purple Grid technology used in its Purple Mattress. Below, we will explore the key similarities and differences between BedInABox® and Purple.

Mattress Selection

Purple, just like BedInABox®, offers Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and California King size mattresses. This diversity of options is great when shopping for the whole family. However, Purple offers only three different mattress models, while BedInABox® offers six. Our goal is to make sure every type of sleeper can find their ideal bed, which is why we have developed mattresses with varying heights and levels of firmness.

BedInABox® Memory Foam versus Purple Grid Technology

Both BedInABox® and Purple mattresses are made in the USA and both companies use CertiPUR-US certified foam to construct their mattresses. This certification means that the foam used to produce both companies’ mattresses is free of certain toxic chemicals. What distinguishes a BedInABox® mattresses from a Purple mattress is the use of memory foam. Purple uses no memory foam whatsoever in their mattresses. Instead, they use the Purple Grid, which is made from a hyper elastic polymer. Purple claims that the Purple Grid sleeps cooler and lasts longer than memory foam. This claim may be true if you are buying cheap, imported memory foam, but that’s not what you get with BedInABox®. We have mastered memory foam cooling technology with our CoolRest memory foam- which we make ourselves right here in the USA. We are also confident that our memory foam mattresses are durable, which is why we stand behind a 20-year warranty. In contrast with us, Purple only offers a 10-year warranty, which speaks for itself.

Durability

At BedInABox®, we promise that your mattress will be comfortable and long lasting, which is why we stand behind a 20-year warranty. Our reviews speak for themselves- please see for yourself- our sleepers can go to bed confident that their mattress will maintain its quality. On the other hand, when looking at reviews for Purple, some Purple customers have found that their mattress begins to show indentations after only a few months.

Suitability

BedInABox® has been lauded by both back and side sleepers for its comfortable memory foam mattresses. You can rest assured that BedInABox® has designed products that will be comfortable regardless of your preferred sleeping position. Although Purple has also received similar praise, it also has a sizable number of customers who immediately regret purchasing the Purple Mattress on the first night. Many of these complaints are from both back and side sleepers. There is also evidence that heavier sleepers find the Purple Grid to be uncomfortable.
