The Big Fig Mattress has always been the go-to choice for plus-size sleepers — exactly what we designed it for! In a side-by-side mattress comparison, we’ve got the durability test results to back it up. With top-quality materials and a sturdy hybrid design, the Big Fig is built to last.
But here’s the exciting part: we’ve expanded our lineup! In addition to our Classic model, we now offer Firm and Luxe options. When it comes to better sleep, one size doesn’t always fit all — even if you’re on the bigger side! So, which of our three Big Fig mattresses is your perfect match? Let’s break it down.
What is the Difference Between the Big Fig Mattress Types?
Finding the right mattress means choosing one that truly supports your body and sleep preferences. Big Fig offers three expertly crafted models, each catering to a different feel — whether you love a firm, sturdy surface, a balanced classic, or a plush, indulgent sleep experience. Let’s explore how they compare.
Big Fig Firm: Maximum Support, Minimal Fuss
The Big Fig Firm is the way to go if you’re looking for a mattress that keeps things simple yet ultra-supportive. At 12-inches thick, it’s the firmest option in the lineup, designed to keep your spine aligned with a resilient, no-sag feel. As with our Classic model, it features our THERMOGEL COOLING ® technology to help keep gross night sweats at bay. It’s the perfect pick for sleepers who prefer an extra-supportive surface, as this streamlined model delivers all the durability Big Fig is known for.
Big Fig Classic: The Gold Standard in Support
The Big Fig Classic is built for those who need more durability and comfort from a traditional, everyday mattress. With reinforced edge support and high-density foams, it resists sagging and promotes proper spinal alignment. Unlike standard mattresses that wear down over time, this one is built to last for 20 years of dependable sleep. And, like our firm mattress, its THERMOGEL COOLING® technology ensures you stay comfortable all night long.
Big Fig Luxe: The Ultimate Plush Experience
For those who want luxury-level comfort, the Big Fig Luxe takes things up a notch. It features next-gen Active Cooling Technology with copper, silver, and graphite infusions for a fresher, cooler sleep. A specialized foam layer and plush pillow-top design add an extra layer of softness without sacrificing support. Plus, reinforced handles make setup and adjustments a breeze. And with our most extended warranty yet (an impressive 25 years), you can rest easy knowing your Luxe mattress is built to last for many restful nights ahead.
