Firmness Info
Award-winning comfort, signature "just right" feel.
The 4-inch Purple Grid™ layer is ideal for any sleep position - especially side sleepers. Perfect for sleepers with a soft mattress-feel preference. This is the softest of the Purple mattresses.
Petite customers (115-pounds or less) tend to prefer The Purple Premier, as their pressure points are better cradled due to a thicker Purple Grid. Similarly, customers who weigh 250-pounds or more have expressed a common interest in The Purple Premier, as it offers a bit more support.

Mattress Construction

Materials Overview
The Casper Original is good for sleepers of all kinds who want both support and cooling. Three layers of construction:
  • Breathable AirScape™ Polyurethane Foam
  • Zoned Memory Foam
  • Durable Polyurethane Support Foam.
The Purple Premier 4 is made with ultra-high-quality materials engineered for the perfect synergy of durability, luxury, and No Pressure Support:
  • 4" Hyper-Elastic Polymer™ material in Puple Grid™. Non-toxic polyethylene copolymer powder coating
  • 1" High-density cushioning foam help the transition between layers for optimal comfort
  • 7.5" Responsive Support Coils. The gauge of the coils are 13.75 and use 95% recycled steel.
The key difference between the Hybrid, Premier 3 and Premier 4 is the depth of the Puple Grid™ layer - either 2, 3 or 4 inches. This changes the overall firmness and feel. The Purple Premier™ 4 is perfect for sleepers who crave even more of that dreamy "floating" effect.
Comfort Info
Casper mattresses are specifically designed to sleep cool. We put a lot of R&D into how Casper mattresses perform throughout the night - like running thermal imaging tests and sweat tests. Our mattresses use a breathable comfort foam to offset the memory foam layered beneath it. This construction helps keep things nice and breezy and outrageously comfortable. Plus every mattress saves up to 57 recycled bottles from the environment.
The Purple Grid™ has thousands of open air channels that feel cool as you lie doown and neutralize your body heat throughout the night so you sleep comfortably all night long.
Support Info
The durable base is engineered to prevent sinking and sagging while supporting your whole body.
When it comes to our signature Purple Grid™, the thicker the gel grid, the less pressure you'll feel. The hyper-elastic polymer gel Grid immediately flexes to support your position and springs back into place as you readjust or move.
The Purple Grid™ is designed to dynamically flex under pressure so it cradles pressure points like your hips and shoulders while still supporting the rest of your body.
A border using high density foam creates reinforced edge support.
Comfort Specs
A top layer of proprietary perforated breathable foam helps reduce heat, the tiny holes move hot air and body heat away. This innovative cooling system is designed to help keep you cool all night.
Air circulates more easily through the interior coils, which perfectly complement the Grid's built-in air channels and temperature-neutral gel material.
Support Specs
Premium AirScape™ foam conforms to your body to relieve pressure.
Memory foam with 3 areas of Zoned Support™ help align your spine and relieve pressure. Softer under shoulders and firmer around the hips, waist and lower back.
Responsive Support Coils
Individually wrapped stainless steel coils pair with the Grid™ to offer dynamic pressure relief and support. Each coil is wrapped in responsibly sourced premium noise-reducing fabric.
The Purple Grid™ is a flexible gel material that instantly adapts to your body and sleep position, providing soft support where you want it and firm support where you need it. This material is organized in a grid formation, which creates walls that can support or fold, depending on how much pressure it receives. It's durable enough to last decades so you won't develop a body impression. And it buckles under specific pressure, which provides excellent motion isolation so you don't feel someone else move in the bed.
