Purple mattresses weigh from about 65 lbs (Twin Original) up to 290+ lbs (King RejuvenateUltimate). Full weight chart by model and size, plus what affects the number on the box.
A Purple mattress weighs anywhere from about 65 lbs to 290+ lbs depending on which model and size you pick. The Original Purple in a Twin is the lightest at roughly 65-75 lbs, while the heaviest hybrid - the RejuvenateUltimate in a King - pushes past 290 lbs. Most queens land in the 100-150 lb range.
Mattress weight matters more than people think. It dictates whether you can move the bed solo, what foundation you need, and how much help you should plan for at delivery. Below is a current weight chart for every Purple model, plus the factors that change those numbers.
Weights below are pulled from Purple's current product specs and reflect the 2025-2026 lineup. Shipping weights run roughly 8-12 lbs heavier per size due to packaging and the box-in-a-box pallet.
The Rejuvenate line is Purple's premium hybrid tier - taller profile, denser comfort layers, and zoned coil base. Expect Queen weights of ~160 lbs (Rejuvenate), ~246 lbs (RejuvenatePlus), and 270+ lbs (RejuvenateUltimate). The King RejuvenateUltimate is the heaviest in the Purple catalog at roughly 290 lbs and absolutely requires two people to handle.
Purple uses the same outer dimensions as every U.S. mattress brand. Only the height (and therefore the weight) varies between models.
The biggest single factor. The Original Purple and Purple Plus are foam-and-grid only - no coils - which keeps a Queen under 115 lbs. Once you move to a Hybrid (Restore, RestorePlus, Rejuvenate, Hybrid Premier), a pocketed coil base adds 30-80 lbs depending on profile and zone count.
Purple's GelFlex Grid is hyper-elastic polymer, and it's dense. The 2-inch grid (Original, Plus, Restore) is the lightest. The 3-inch grid (Hybrid Premier 3, RestorePlus, Rejuvenate) and 4-inch grid (Hybrid Premier 4, RejuvenatePlus/Ultimate) each add real pounds - a 4-inch grid King can weigh 30+ lbs more than the same model with a 3-inch grid.
The Original is 9.25 in. The Hybrid Premier 4 and RejuvenateUltimate are 13 in. Each extra inch of foam, grid, or coil adds 5-10 lbs at Queen. Comfort layers (especially the polyurethane and gel-infused foam under the grid) are where most of that height comes from.
Predictable, but worth saying: a King has roughly 27% more surface area than a Queen, so weights scale almost linearly. Cal King is usually within a couple pounds of King.
It depends on the model. The Original Purple Queen weighs 110 lbs. Purple Plus Queen is 111 lbs. Restore Hybrid Queen is 114 lbs, RestorePlus Queen is 145-147 lbs, Hybrid Premier 3 is around 145 lbs, and Hybrid Premier 4 is around 168 lbs. The premium Rejuvenate line in Queen ranges from ~160 lbs (Rejuvenate) up to 270+ lbs (RejuvenateUltimate).
The RejuvenateUltimate in King is Purple's heaviest model, weighing approximately 290 lbs. The Hybrid Premier 4 in King (~202 lbs) is the heaviest non-Rejuvenate model. Both require two people to move and a heavy-duty bed frame rated for the combined weight of mattress plus sleepers.
The Original Purple in Twin, Twin XL, or Full (65-81 lbs) is manageable solo for most adults. Anything from a Queen up - and any Hybrid model - needs two people. The mattresses are floppy and the GelFlex Grid makes them awkward to grip, so the practical limit is well below the raw pound count.
Yes, slightly. All mattresses pick up dust, sweat, dead skin, and (depending on cleaning habits) dust mites over years of use. Estimates that a 10-year-old mattress can double in weight are exaggerated for a well-cared-for Purple - the GelFlex Grid is non-absorbent and the cover is removable and washable. Vacuuming the surface monthly and using a mattress protector keeps gain minimal.
Purple recommends a solid platform, slats no more than 3.5 inches apart, or an adjustable base rated to at least 750 lbs total weight capacity. For Hybrid Premier 4 and Rejuvenate models, prioritize frames with a center support leg - the combined mattress-plus-sleeper load on a King RejuvenateUltimate can easily hit 700+ lbs.
Shipping weight is typically 8-12 lbs heavier than the bare mattress weight, due to the compression sleeve, plastic, and box. A Queen Original ships at roughly 120 lbs in the box; a King RejuvenateUltimate ships at well over 300 lbs and arrives on a pallet, not at your door.
If weight is a real concern - small bedroom, walk-up apartment, no help on delivery day - stick with the Original Purple or Purple Plus. They're the only two models in the lineup that one adult can plausibly maneuver alone, and the Queen Original at 110 lbs is the sweet spot for most shoppers.
If you want the deeper Hybrid feel, plan for two people on delivery day, a frame rated for the load, and the fact that you probably won't be moving it again until your next mattress.
