Best praise vs top criticism for DLX Mattress Classic Hybrid

Best Praise

“You can still buy them. I did and then purchased a topper separtly. I was really having trouble making a decision on what mattress to get until I found it. It is the DLX Classic. https://dlxmattress.com/collections/mattress/products/classic-hybrid We have now had for about a week and very happy with it. It was bizzare how it came though. It was in a relatively small box and it is a king size mattress. It then expands. Like instantly. You want to make sure you have in the right place when you cut the plastic to expand. Only a week is not long enough to know if it will hold up. But at least if it does not having dips we can flip it and get more time out of it.”

“Damn, I wish I knew the 4Rs before I handed over my card. My cousin was praising his mattress and I figured I would get it too. Nope wasn’t a good idea. You were the main reason for me getting the DLX premier hybrid. I have been lurking and reading your recommendations you make and the DLX stood out. Maybe you can help with this. The DLX transfer motion more than I would like. I have the firm one. What would you recommend I try to lessen the motion transfer? I have it on an ironwood base but replaced the slats with 3/4” plywood wrapped in fabric and with .25” holes drilled for ventilation. Keep helping everyone on this subreddit.😊”

“I'm sorry that happened to you. I love, love my Purple, and have for years. It fixed my own soreness with other mattresses. This is why there isn't just one mattress suiting everybody!”

“Purple is in obviously in deep trouble. They are rapidly consuming what little cash that they have left. Very few people would bet that they will be around ten years from now. However if you read the fine print the warranty doesn’t really cover much after the first few years. There are a lot of reasons for avoiding Purple mattresses but their longevity is not the most significant factor.”
