Pros: Outstanding edge support, good heat dissipation, sound motion isolation, long warranty, 1,100-pound weight capacity, above-average firmness
Cons: May not be comfortable for lightweight side sleepers, hard to lift and move
The Big Fig Mattress can support 1,100 pounds and comes with a foundation that holds 1,200 pounds. The mattress is firmer than average, allowing heavier side sleepers to sink in enough to keep your spine aligned while still feeling supported.
Setup took some effort since the Big Fig weighs more than most mattresses. I recommend airing the bed out before sleeping on it, as the initial odor took a day to dissipate.
The Big Fig comprises three layers of CertiPUR-US certified foams to promote durability, edge support, and airflow. It gets more durability and support from the individually wrapped coils. And the mattress is covered with a cooling fabric.
Thanks to its exceptional edge support, I felt just as comfortable on the edge of the Big Fig as I did in the middle. Couples will also appreciate the impressive balance of bounce and motion isolation. The motion dampening felt adequate, though it failed our motion transfer test.
