![]() When I’m on my stomach, the mattress is too soft, and I am bowing in at the hips. While the mattress does feel firm at first when I am on my side, it does soften up and I feel some decent pressure relief on my shoulders and hips. On the Loom & Leaf, I feel nice support on my back, as my hips sink in just a bit too far, but I am getting good lumbar support. I am pressing further into the Loom & Leaf and feeling some more firmness than Joe did, but on the Purple, my larger weight collapses the gel grid, which actually makes it feel softer to me. The main reason I feel differently than Joe has to do with my weight. I said the Loom & Leaf was a 7.5/10, and the Purple was close to a 6.5/10. Here is what he thought about these mattresses and how appropriate they are for heavier sleepers: He is 6’7″ and weighs about 230 lbs (I am 5’9″ and 160 lbs.). Marten is a staff writer for us and has a much different body type. People can see the edge support differences in the photos below. I don’t feel secure sitting on the edge of the Purple and, lying down near the edge of both mattresses, I feel a bit like I might roll off. Can they sit or lie down near the edge without feeling like they will fall off the mattress?Įdge support is not really a highlight of either mattress. If someone is looking for a couples mattress, they should also think about how much of the mattress they can really utilize. See more of what I thought about Purple’s firmness and feel in the video below. The mattress has no real bounce and the memory foam is not very responsive, so it won’t be as easy to move around on the Loom & Leaf. The Loom & Leaf, on the other hand, has a classic memory foam feel that feels firm at first, but that memory slowly softens and allows you to sink in. Most people shouldn’t have issues moving around on the mattress or switching positions. It is responsive and has some very nice bounce to it. The Purple has a unique squishy gel feel that is firm and pressure relieving at the same time. Moving to my stomach, the mattress is a bit too soft for me. However, after a moment, the memory foam softens and I feel the pressure on my shoulders and hips disappear. When I am side sleeping, the mattress feels firm at first. ![]() I don’t sink in too far, and the foam contours to the curves of my body. On the Loom & Leaf, I also feel nice support when I am back sleeping. ![]() On my stomach, the mattress supports me quite well. I don’t think I am heavy enough to really activate the gel grid. However, when I moved to my side, the mattress felt a bit firm to me. In my experience, the Purple felt great when I was on my back, as the mattress collapsed under my butt and hips but stayed flat and supportive across the rest of my body. Heavier people should collapse that gel, so the mattress should feel softer to them. Lighter-weight people might not be heavy enough to really activate the gel grid, so it might feel firmer to them. However, people might have a different experience on the Purple depending on their weight. In terms of firmness, the Purple felt like a 7/10, and the Loom and Leaf felt close to a 6.5/10. The Loom & Leaf features very high-density foams that should also stand up to many years of wear and tear. The Purple’s hyper-elastic gel polymer shouldn’t sag the way some foams do.
