The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is best-suited for heavier and average-weight side sleepers. It offers fantastic body conformity for people in the heavier weight category and excellent body conformity for people in the average-weight category, so your shoulder will sink in enough to relieve pressure. However, it's not very supportive for people in those weight categories, so your hips may sink in a little further. It's not a good option for lighter side sleepers, who won't sink in enough for proper pressure relief.
Excellent body conformity for average-weight people.
Fantastic body conformity for heavier people.
Poor body conformity for lighter people.

The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is best-suited for lighter back sleepers. This 'Medium' mattress offers great support for people in that weight category, so it'll keep your hips from sinking in further than the rest of your body. While it doesn't have the best pressure relief performance for lighter people, its contouring upper comfort layer helps cushion your hips and lower back. It offers mediocre support for heavier people and disappointing support for average-weight people, making it less suitable for back sleeping.
Great support for lighter people.
Highly contouring comfort layer helps with pressure relief.
Disappointing support for average-weight people.
Mediocre support for heavier people.

The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is best-suited for lighter stomach sleepers. It's impressively supportive for people in that weight category, so your hips won't sink in very far, which is important for spinal alignment. Its grid comfort layer is highly contouring, which helps relieve pressure for areas like your knees and hips. However, it's not well-suited for stomach sleepers in the average- or heavier-weight categories, as it's not supportive enough, which can cause your back to arch when you're sleeping on your stomach.
Great support for lighter people.
Highly contouring comfort layer helps with pressure relief.
Disappointing support for average-weight people.
Mediocre support for heavier people.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is decently durable. There's only one layer of foam in the mattress, and it's made of good-quality polyfoam that should resist showing signs of wear for longer compared to lower-density, lower-quality foams.
Uses good-quality, more durable polyfoam.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid's pressure relief performance varies depending on your weight. It feels much firmer for lighter people, who won't sink into the mattress past the grid comfort layer and won't get enough pressure relief for comfortable side sleeping. However, it offers excellent body conformity for average-weight people and fantastic body conformity for heavier people, so it offers much better pressure relief for people in those weight categories. Regardless of your weight, lighter parts of your body won't sink into its upper comfort layer very much, but the grid is very contouring, which helps with pressure relief.
Excellent body conformity for average-weight people.
Fantastic body conformity for heavier people.
Highly contouring comfort layer helps with pressure relief.
Poor body conformity for lighter people.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid offers very different levels of support depending on your weight. It's most supportive for lighter people, so you can sleep on your back or stomach, and your hips will stay in line with the rest of your body. However, it's not nearly as supportive for average-weight or heavier people, whose hips will sink further into the mattress, making it not ideal for back or stomach sleepers in those weight categories.
Great support for lighter people.
Disappointing support for average-weight people.
Mediocre support for heavier people.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is exceptionally cooling. It feels cool when you first get into bed and does an outstanding job of moving heat away from you overnight. It's a great option if you're a hot sleeper whose main priority is cooling.
Extremely cooling, even for hot sleepers.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid has a great motion dissipation performance. You'll feel some movements near the source, so when your partner rolls over, you'll feel it in the lumbar area. However, you won't feel it all over the mattress, and it dissipates quickly, so motion is unlikely to wake you.
Motion stays localized and dissipates quickly.
You'll feel bigger movements near the source.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid has fantastic responsiveness. The grid comfort layer springs back into shape quickly when you move, and the mattress's spring layer helps give it a bouncy feel. Overall, it feels easy to move around on, and you don't feel stuck in place.
Highly responsive, so you don't feel stuck in place.
Bouncy feel makes it easy to move around in your sleep.

Popular Mattress Comparisons
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid has a 'Medium' feel that makes it suitable for average-weight and heavier side sleepers as well as lighter back/stomach sleepers. It stands out for its incredible cooling performance, which is good enough to keep even the hottest sleepers feeling refreshed. It also offers great edge support and excellent motion dissipation, outperforming the lower-end all-foam Purple Mattress in both respects. However, some 'Medium' mattresses offer better support for average-weight and heavier people. While its performance is okay for side sleeping, if you're concerned about keeping your hips from sinking, you might prefer a 'Medium' mattress with better support, like the Casper Snow or the Brooklyn Bedding Signature Hybrid.
To see what we recommend, check out the best mattresses, the best mattresses for side sleeping, and the best cooling mattresses.
The Casper Snow and the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid have different strengths. While both have a 'Medium' feel, the Casper offers better pressure relief and is a much better option for lighter side sleepers. Its more supportive feel also makes it suitable for a wider range of back/stomach sleepers, but its sluggish feel may make you feel stuck in place. The Purple is more responsive and feels less enveloping, so it's easier to move around on. While both mattresses are cooling enough for hot sleepers, the Purple dissipates much more heat overnight, so it's a better choice if cooling is a priority.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is better for most people than the Purple Mattress. The RestorePlus offers more pressure relief, making it more suitable for average-weight side sleepers. It also offers sturdier edges and better motion dissipation. It's more cooling, although both models are extremely cooling.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid is better than the Saatva Classic for most people. Both are 'Medium' mattresses, but the Purple is more supportive, especially for lighter people, making it a better option for back/stomach sleepers in that weight category. Its fantastic cooling performance makes it a better option for hot sleepers, and it also offers better motion dissipation, so your partner's movements are less likely to wake you up.
The Purple RestorePlus Hybrid offers a better performance than the Saatva Rx. The Purple is significantly more cooling, making it more suitable for hot sleepers. It offers better edge support and motion dissipation and uses denser, better-quality foam.
