What Serious Sleeper Kayla at HGTV Had to Say About Big Fig
Best Mattresses for Heavy Sleepers
Big Fig is the creator of the first (and only!) mattress tailored for the plus-size body type. The original Big Fig Mattress is built to address bed issues specific to bigger sleepers, like mattress sag, poor support, weak foundation and lack of durability. With extra built-in support, this mattress cradles sore muscles and achy backs, allowing a more sound sleep. Plus, the mattress’s plush quilted top is made with THERMOGEL COOLING ® technology that helps lower body temperature for an actively cool sleeping experience.
You’ll also find a gel-infused latex foam for breathability and comfort, three layers of high-density polyfoam for no-sag cushioning, 1,600 individually wrapped coils, high-density edge foam for added strength and tufts in 16 places to prevent materials from shifting over time. It sounds like a lot, but that’s because it is! The hybrid construction of springs and foam provides the ultimate mix of support and comfort that is built to last for decades.
PERKS: Big Fig offers a 120-night sleep trial and a 20-year warranty that includes both free repair and free replacement for the entirety of 20 years. You’ll also receive free shipping and free returns if it’s not a good fit.

Why Big Fig is the best mattress for heavy people and heavy couples
Hybrid Construction: High-Density Foam, and Coil System
The Big Fig mattress is designed with heavier individuals in mind, featuring a hybrid innerspring construction that blends support and comfort seamlessly. Imagine sleeping on a bed with 1,600 individual coils (for the king size), topped with three layers of high-density foam and a gel-infused, perforated latex layer. This means you get a mattress that's not only supportive and comfortable but also built to last. Unlike traditional mattresses that can soften and break down quickly, especially for plus-size sleepers, the Big Fig maintains its firmness and comfort over time.
You might be thinking that a spring coil mattress means rock-hard and uncomfortable. Not with the Big Fig. We’ve carefully selected high-quality comfort materials to create the perfect balance of plush and support. The mattress includes three inches of high-density foam cushioning, significantly denser than what you’ll find in a typical innerspring mattress. This helps prevent those annoying sags and impressions, keeping your mattress feeling like new.
And let’s talk about motion transfer—those annoying wake-ups every time your partner rolls over. The Big Fig tackles this with individually pocketed coils that contour to your body, reducing nearly all motion transfer. Made from premium grade 15-gauge steel, these coils provide robust support and adjust to your body weight and contours, giving you a restful night’s sleep.
Edge Support
Ever sit on the edge of a bed and feel like you’re about to slide off? That’s a common issue with all-foam and traditional mattresses, but not with the Big Fig. Our mattress has the firmest foam around the edges, giving you that secure feeling whether you’re sitting or sleeping near the edge. Plus, this feature expands the usable sleeping area, making your bed feel more spacious.
Sleeping Cool
We all want to sleep cool, and the Big Fig mattress makes that possible with its advanced cooling technologies. The mattress topper is made with THERMOGEL COOLING ® technology, which activates with moisture to cool your body as you sleep. Beneath that, a layer of perforated, gel-infused latex foam allows for increased airflow, keeping the surface temperature down. This means you can sleep cool and comfortable all night long.
Tufting
One of the secrets to a durable mattress is hand tufting, and the Big Fig doesn’t skimp on this. Hand tufting involves inserting durable string fasteners through the mattress to keep all the layers in place. This prevents shifting and sagging, ensuring your mattress remains comfortable and supportive for the long haul. It’s a sign of quality craftsmanship you can trust.
Strong Foundation
A great mattress needs a strong foundation, and the Big Fig Foundation is designed to provide exactly that. Crafted from high-quality spruce, pine, and fir woods, it features 18 wide slats and double center rails, supporting up to five times the weight of a standard foundation. This robust support system helps prevent sagging and prolongs the life of your mattress.
Documented Testing
We put the Big Fig through rigorous testing to prove its durability, especially for plus-size sleepers. A third-party facility simulated 20 years of use with a heavier weight of 350 pounds, and the Big Fig passed with flying colors. This means you can trust that your mattress will remain comfortable and supportive for many years, addressing the specific sleep needs of an underserved community.
