“It’s time to go to bed.” The phrase our nine-year-old selves dreaded while most of us as adults look forward to hearing. Anyone who works forty plus hours knows that bedtime means rest after a long and exhausting day.
However, looking forward to restful sleep does not guarantee that said restful sleep will be granted. The simple fact remains that to sleep properly, you need to sleep on something comfortable and supportive.
Beds made of loose stones, broken glass, and thistles are remarkably bad ideas and very clearly do not make for a good night’s sleep. However, sometimes villainous beds are more subtle, and one person’s perfect mattress may be another persons nightmare.
Fairy tales aside, mattress specifics don’t have much appeal to the weary traveler looking for a quiet place to crash for the night. Still, to the person looking for a more permanent sleep solution, the brand and style of mattress should hold a higher level of scrutiny.
The wrong purchase could leave the hopeful sleeper doubled over with backaches and soreness, making for a downright unpleasant workday. Purchasing the right mattress will lead to better nights, which leads to even better days.
The prudent purchaser should compare mattresses to make sure to avoid that dreaded fairy tale monster called Buyer’s Remorse. After all, is there anything more monstrous than owning a mattress that can’t even provide the user with a decent night’s sleep?

This article will compare the merits of The Nectar Mattress to the features of Purple Mattress so that you can better determine which one might be for you.
While we do carry the Nectar mattress in-store, we want you to find the best mattress for your needs, even if we do not carry it.
For this comparison article we will be looking at Nectar Mattresses and comparing them to Purple Mattresses. Before we compare the two brands, let’s find out a little about each one.
Nectar is a newer player in the mattress ecommerce industry and has already made major waves with consumers. Nectar started selling mattresses direct to customers using vacuum packing to make their mattresses compact and easy to ship.
While Nectar is known for being available to ship direct to your door, Nectar is now also available at 1,150 United States mattress retailers, including Furniture Fair. Once you’ve purchased a Nectar Mattress, transportation is a breeze as long as you have a vehicle.
Nectar Mattresses are made with memory foam and have cooling technology layers and added support layers for a great mattress that ships right to your door. In addition, Nectar mattresses are some of the most affordable mattresses on the market!
“At Nectar, we believe that better sleep makes all the difference. That’s why our driving mission is to give you the best rest, night after night.”
Nectar carries two styles of mattress in six sizes. You can choose between the classic Nectar mattress or the softer, cloud-like Nectar Lush mattress. Both mattress options are available in Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and the ridiculously extravagant California King size.
The classic nectar mattress features five layers of memory foam designed to support your body, while the Nectar Lush mattress features thicker memory foam for a softer mattress that hugs your body.

Here are a few features and benefits that a Nectar Mattress may provide for you. Keep in mind that mattresses are not one-size-fits-all and you need to determine which features and benefits are best for your sleep needs.
Memory foam can tend to heat up during the night thanks to your bodies’ ability to radiate heat.
Nectar Mattresses counter this natural effect by using a three inch layer of two and three-quarter pound gel memory foam.
Gel memory foam is designed to stay cooler longer while also conforming to your body and adding additional support.
With gel memory foam your body will stay cooler longer than with a standard memory foam mattress.
Nectar offers what they call the “Forever Warranty” which they describe as,
“The best warranty in the business. Period. No small type or confusing legal speak. If you purchased a Nectar and it breaks from normal use at any point we will replace it at no additional charge.
Doesn’t matter if it’s 100 days, 100 months, or 100 years from now. We’ve designed Nectar to outlast long term use, just like quality products should.”
If you are worried about buyer’s remorse or concerned that your mattress will not last long, Nectar’s Forever Warranty is designed to put your mind at ease.
Determining if a new mattress is right for you may take a bit of testing and Nectar gives you an entire year to do just that.
If you aren’t completely satisfied after a year, or at any point during the trial period, you can return your mattress with free shipping and receive a refund.
Most ecommerce platforms have been doing no-contact delivery since before 2020 made it necessary and Nectar is no exception.
Every step of the delivery process from the factory to your door goes through as little contact as possible.
Nectar mattresses come vacuum-sealed in a protective box which protects your mattress from potential germs during the entire shipping process.
This level of protection means you can rest easy knowing your mattress was not exposed to germs during shipping.
Nectar Mattresses ship direct to the consumer at no additional cost, which is an option you may not get at a mattress store.
The compactable nature of memory foam makes shipping less costly for online companies like Nectar, meaning additional savings for you.
In addition, Nectar will be delivered directly to your door, meaning less work on your end.
Transportation worries and costs are eliminated, meaning once you make the order, you can relax and let your new mattress find it’s way to you.
Nectar also includes bonuses with sales promotions, and often includes free items with your purchase such as sheet sets, pillows, and mattress protectors.
If you catch the right promotion, you can save a few extra bucks and time spent shopping for those bedding essentials.
The bottom line is that Nectar is an affordable, direct-to-consumer memory foam mattress with a lifetime guarantee and free shipping to your front door.

Purple is well-known in the online mattress industry for their unique mattress and for their equally unique viral commercials featuring mythical creatures and fairy tale characters. Purple mattresses are shipped directly to the customer’s home for maximum convenience and added savings.
Purple started out as an online-only retailer but has since moved into many mattress retailer showrooms nationwide. Purple’s compactible nature makes purchase and transportation easy and convenient.
Purple mattresses are made using what the company calls “The Grid” a series of square patterns molded into a mattress form that is designed to be firm where you need it to be and soft where you want it to be.
Purple is one of the most unique mattresses in the industry today, and their gird system is like no other mattress technology available. If you are looking for a new mattress experience, Purple might be a good option for you.
“The Purple Grid is engineered to support broad surfaces like your back and legs while cradling where your weight is more focused – like shoulders and hips. The result? Reduced pressure points and a perfectly supported sleep.”
Purple carries 3 mattress types in 7 sizes in addition to their brand new Kids Twin mattress style.
The three mattress styles are the Purple mattress, the Purple hybrid mattress, and the best-selling Purple mattress premier.

Here are a few features and benefits that a Purple mattress may provide for you. Once again, keep in mind that mattresses are not one-size-fits-all and you need to determine which features and benefits are best for your sleep needs.
Purple breathes and promotes airflow to keep you sleeping soundly. Purple achieves the helps you sleep comfortably by combining Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ with a totally unique mattress design.
Purple is crafted in a grid formation that helps it breathe. Purple elevates your body above the foam so air can flow freely which should help you sleep cooler.

Purple offers a 100 day trial period, which allows you to test out the Purple mattress and decide if the new mattress design is right for your needs.
If you aren’t satisfied at any point during the 100 days, simply return your Purple mattress at no cost to you.
Purple features free shipping directly to your door, making purchasing a Purple mattress convenient and affordable especially when compared to some mattress manufacturers.
Once you’ve ordered your mattress, you can sit back and Purple will handle the rest.
Purple mattresses are sealed at the factory and then untouched until you open them in your home.
The beauty of ecommerce is that you don’t have to stress about who has been around the mattress and what germs it might contain.
Your Purple mattress changes hands as little as possible from exiting the factory to entering your home, and this saves you stress and worry about germs and potential product damage or contamination.
Depending on the current promotion, Purple may offer bonus items along with your purchase of a Purple mattress.
These bonus items are also available for purchase if they aren’t currently part of the promotion.
If you are shopping for Purple, keep an eye out for promotional deals that let you get a little bonus for shopping the brand.
The bottom line is that Purple is a unique mattress with revolutionary new mattress technology and free shipping to your front door.
