I've had a bunch of different beds - everything from expensive traditional mattresses, to Tempurpedic, and almost bought a Sleep Number, but couldn't bring myself to layout north of $3K for an air mattress. All claimed to help relieve back pain, and have good air circulations. None of them did, and every single one cratered. Mind you - I'm not a big guy - 5'7", 160.

I saw a Facebook Ad for Purple, and took a chance. About $1K for a King Size mattress, with a 100 night trial, and no shipping in either direction - why not. The Purple mattress actually lived up to it's reputation - it helped relieve my back pain, an doesn't sleep hot at all. Whenever it comes time to replace it, I'll buy another in a heartbeat.

The only con IMHO is that it's not as tall as a traditional mattress. Depending on the headboard you have, there may be a gap that pillows can slip through.
