Hey guys. Marten here from Mattress Clarity. If you're trying to decide
between the Nectar and Purple mattresses, you've come to the right video.
Today we're comparing both those mattresses. We're going to take a look at
their similarities, their differences, and help you choose one over
the other. Let's get started.
First off, if you want to see a list of our top picks for mattress,
head over to Mattress Clarity. There you're going to find some other reviews
on mattresses, bedding, and pillows and the great discounts on mattresses
like these two. You'll also find some great coupons in the YouTube
description below. So let's start off by talking about the similarities
between these two mattress. First off, they are both very popular
online mattress Review. Both have great customer service terms.
They have a similar base layer, and in terms of price, they are very close.
Now let's talk about the differences between these two mattresses. And first
off, there are some materials differences, namely in the comfort layers
on top of the Nectar. Slow moving memory foam. Over on the Purple, a unique
hyperelastic gel polymer. Because there are some fuel differences as
well. With the Nectar, more of a slow moving memory foam feel. With the Purple
more of a squishy gellike feel. Now, also, the Purple is
going to be more breathable than the Nectar mattress and speaking of
durability, the Purple is more durable than the Nectar. So now let's take a look
at the construction of both these mattresses, starting off on top and then
working our way down. First off, with the cover on top of the
Nectar mattress, a cooling cover, very breathable is going to help with heat
dissipation as well. Moving over to the Purple. Also, a thin and
breathable cover won't affect the overall feel of the mattress too much. Now
moving down to the comfort layers on top of the Nectar mattress a thick
layer of gel infused memory foam. Gel infusion is going to help with cooling.
It also has that slow moving memory foam feel. Beneath that,
a foam transition layer. It's a little bit bouncier than the top layer of the
mattress. Moving over to the Purple mattress, on top
a unique hyperelastic gel polymer that forms a Purple
grid. Basically, it stays firm and supportive until you apply enough pressure
and then that area, and then that area only will collapse.
Below that, a foam transition layer moving down to the support layers
on the Nectar mattress, a foam base layer similar to what you find
over in the Purple. So what does all this mean?
Well, again, the main construction difference is going to be found in the
comfort layers of both these mattresses. On top of the neck are more of that
kind of traditional slow moving memory foam. But on top of that Purple,
that unique hyperelastic gel polymer. So a very different experience on
both these mattresses. Now, speaking of cooling, the Purple
will win out. I believe because that gel grid leaves so much room for airflow,
shouldn't trap heat. Should be a better match for hot sleepers in general.
Speaking of durability, they both are very durable mattresses.
That being said, the Purple, I think should whip out a gel grid on top
is a very durable material. Now let's talk about firmness and
feel. In terms of firmness, I thought the Nectar was close to a six and
a half out of ten, and the Purple was also close to a six and
a half out of ten. However, I do want to note though, that I am
a larger person, so that might affect how firm these mattress review to
me. Especially with the Purple mattress, if you're a lighter person.
It actually might feel firmer to you than it did to me. Speaking of
feel, the Nectar has more of that classic memory foam feel. You lie
down, you slowly sink into the mattress. Kind of that quick sand feel.
Overall, the Purple has a very unique feel.
It is firm and supportive until you apply enough pressure. And then again,
that area and that area only will collapse. So it's firm but also squishy
at the same time. So now let's talk about how I feel in different sleep
positions on both these mattresses. Starting off on the Nectar on
my back, a good balance of comfort and support. My hips sticking the right
amount and some good contouring as well. Moving to my side,
some decent pressure relief on my shoulders and my hips. If you're lighter than
me, you should feel even better pressure relief than I did. Moving to my
stomach, though not quite supportive enough for me. My hips are going in and I'm
getting out of alignment and moving over to the Purple mattress. On my back,
a great balance of comfort and support. It only collapses under my hips
and butt. Good overall support. Moving to my side. Also some
pretty good pressure relief on my shoulders and my hips as a larger person and
really collapsing that gel grid right on top. If you're lighter than me, you
might feel more pressure than I did. Moving to my stomach,
though definitely firm and supportive across the entire mattress. When I'm in
this position, good support under my hips. I'm not blowing in and I'm not
getting out of alignment. So here at Mattress Clarity, we like to mix subjective
opinion with objective tests. And one of those tests is the pressure map.
So I lie down on my back, side, and stomach. You see anywhere from blue for
no pressure all the way up to red for high pressure. Now let's pull
up the side seeking results for both these mattresses. On the left we have the
Nectar and on the right we have the Purple. Pay close attention to my
shoulders and my hips.
If you sleep with the partners, two things you do want to think about that's
motion transfer and edge support. Now motion transfer means relying down
on one side of the mattress and your partner moves around on the other side.
Are you going to feel that motion or not? The edge support means you're sitting
or lying down to the edge of a mattress. Do you feel secure or more
if you're going to roll off and onto the floor? So first off, speaking of
motion transfer, I would give the advantage of the Nectar mattress. Right on
top, you have that slow-moving memory foam feel really cutting down on that
motion transfer. Speaking of edge of war, I think pretty much a
tie between these two mattresses. I feel secure sitting and lying down to
the edge of both mattresses. And now the moment you've all been
waiting for, which one of these mattress should you get. In terms of who
should get the Nectar mattress, I think a better option for light and
medium weight side sleepers? You should feel good pressure relief on your
shoulders and your hips and not the best pressure relief over on the
Purple. It's also, I think a better option if you like that memory foam feel.
When you lie down to the Nectar, you slowly sink in. Kind of has that
quicksand feel. If you like that feel, take a look at the Nectar.
Lastly, I think a better option for couples with the memory foam right on
top really cuts down on motion transfer. A better option for couples in that
respect. In terms of who should get the Purple, I think a better option
for larger people in general, just a better match for them in terms of
side sleeping, back sleeping and stomach sleeping. Also,
I think a better option if you want something more responsive definitely has
more of a bouncy feel overall, so you shouldn't feel stuck in the purple.
Last but not least, in general, I think a better option for back sleepers and
stomach sleepers a more supportive mattress overall. So if you sleep in either
of these positions, take a look at the Purple. So the Nectar and Purple
are both online mattresses. They're going to come to your house and either a
cardboard box or a plastic bag. So how do you unpack them?
Let's take a look at The Nectar mattress. First off,
ask a friend for help. This box can be quite heavy. You don't want to
hurt or strain yourself. Bring that box inside and into
your bedroom. Open up the top of the box and take out your rolled up
mattress. Place this on your framer foundation and slowly,
carefully cut through layers of plastic. You don't want to damage your brand new
mattress. Then give it up 24 to 48 hours to complete off
gas and expand and you're good to go. So I want to give you some
additional information about both these mattress. First off,
they both come with free shipping and returns. Speaking of warranty,
the Nectar comes with the Forever warranty, the Purple comes with a ten year
warranty looking at their sleep trials with the Nectar mattress
