Les 8 meilleurs matelas pour les personnes lourdes qui offrent un soutien amélioré

For larger people, mattress shopping can be a mixed bag. Most mattresses aren’t designed to accommodate heavier people, so they may feel softer than advertised and—even worse—they may not last as long as expected, thanks to issues like premature sagging or dipping. The best mattresses for heavy people factor for those considerations. They’re designed to accommodate at least 300 pounds per sleeper, breathe well and generally combine both innersprings and foam for the best balance of comfort and support. Our pick of the best mattress for heavy people overall is the Helix Plus. Not only does it comfortably support two people weighing up to 500 pounds each, it has a base of sturdy steel coils topped with contouring memory foam that delivers a medium-firm feel, even for heavy sleepers.

Disclaimer: Since most standard mattresses support around 250 pounds per side, this article was written for individuals who weigh over 250 pounds and need a more supportive mattress. This ensures comfort and contributes to the longevity of the mattress. We chose the term “heavy people” to reflect how consumers are categorized based on mattress weight limits, as well as for the purposes of clarity and brevity.

Beyond being engineered to support more weight, the best mattresses for heavy sleepers also need to meet individual sleep needs, like back pain or preferred sleep styles. We did the research to find options made with sturdier, higher-density materials that stand up to more weight, minimize heat retention and accommodate a range of preferences. Below, find our picks of the best mattresses for heavy sleepers. For related recommendations, see our roundups of the best mattresses for heavy couples et le best mattresses that won’t sag.

Best Mattress For Heavy People Overall

Packed With High-Density Foam To Prevent Sagging

Helix Plus (Grande)

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 11,5 pouces | Limite de poids: 500 pounds per side (1,000 pounds total) | Fermeté: 7 to 8 out of 10 (firm) | Procès: 100 nuits | Garantie: 10 années | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • Supportive feel for back and stomach sleepers
  • Provides relief from back pain
  • Cooling, thanks to breathable construction

Inconvénients :

  • Not a lot of pressure relief for heavyweight side sleepers

The Helix Plus is a hybrid mattress that combines wrapped coils with several layers of foam. Each foam layer has a different density strategically chosen to contour your body and give you some serious pressure relief. The company claims the Helix Plus is designed with high-density foam to provide maximum support so your mattress doesn’t dip or sag, as well as an extra layer of comfort.

In between the foam layers sit hundreds of tall coils that are individually wrapped and designed to support heavier weight. These coils, which are reinforced around the perimeter of the mattress, cradle your body and provide extra edge support so the side doesn’t compress if you roll away from the center. To top it off, the mattress is wrapped in a breathable Tencel cover that promotes air flow, so you stay cool and comfortable while you sleep. 

Note: Helix recently launched an entire line dedicated to heavyweight sleepers. If you’re interested in shopping additional Helix Plus options, check out our Helix Plus launch story.

Ce que disent les critiques : “I’m a heavy guy. I needed a mattress that can support me, and this one does not disappoint,” one reviewer says. Another adds, “My back issues have improved significantly and pain is much less. You have to wake up on a Helix to understand its benefits. It is eye-opening.”

Best Plush Mattress For Heavy People

A Softer Selection That Still Gets High Marks In Support

Titan Plus Luxe (Queen)

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 13 pouces | Limite de poids: 500 pounds per side (1,000 pounds total) | Fermeté: 6 out of 10 (medium) | Procès: 120 nuits | Garantie: 10 années | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • Durable with reinforced support
  • Softer feel; good for side sleepers
  • Optional cooling cover for enhanced breathability

Inconvénients :

  • Too soft for most stomach sleepers

Although many beds for plus-size people skew firm, the Titan Plus Luxe is a touch softer with a medium firmness level. This makes it a great option for larger people who prefer a plusher mattress, including those who sleep on their sides and benefit from extra cushioning around the hips and shoulders. The mattress features 4 inches of contouring foam atop hundreds of individually wrapped coils that provide plenty of support, while also isolating motion.

The Titan Plus Luxe is finished off with a high-density foam base that reinforces the coils and prevents them from buckling as they compress. If you’re a hot sleeper and you want extra cooling support, you can add an optional cooling top panel (for an extra $150) that disperses heat on contact and helps keep you comfortable. Or if you’d prefer a firmer feel with similar features, the original Titan Plus pourrait être une bonne option. 

Ce que disent les critiques : One reviewer says sleeping on the Titan Plus Luxe is “like sleeping on a supportive cloud.” Another reviewer writes, simply, “Excellent. Supportive yet soft, a perfect balance.”


Best Pillow Top Mattress For Heavy People

Maximum Support From The Center To The Edges

WinkBed Plus (Queen)

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 13,5 pouces | Limite de poids: 450 pounds per side (900 pounds total) | Fermeté: 8 out of 10 (firm) | Procès: 120 nuits | Garantie: Durée de vie | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • More pressure-relieving than other options on this list
  • Plush, supportive feel; good for a variety of sleep positions
  • Excels at maintaining spinal alignment

Inconvénients :

  • Slightly lower weight capacity than others

Although it’s technically a hybrid, those after a traditional innerspring feel could really like the WinkBed Plus. Its sturdy support and pressure-relieving Euro pillow top keeps sleepers lifted on top of the bed in comfort. We really appreciate the gel-infused foam within the quilted pillow top and how it cradles your joints as you lie on the mattress. According to the brand, the mattress has a medium-firm feel (about 6.5 out of 10) for individuals weighing over 300 pounds, but it skews firmer (an 8 out of 10) for those under 200 pounds.

The WinkBed Plus features individually wrapped pocketed coils with multiple support zones. This means you get extra reinforcement where you need it, like the lower back. The brand’s Extra-Edge Support System also offers a strong foundation throughout the entire mattress, so you don’t feel like you’re going to roll off the sides of the bed. It truly shines with durable materials throughout.

Ce que disent nos éditeurs et les critiques : “I really like how cushioning yet heavy-duty the WinkBed Plus is,” says senior mattress and sleep editor Bridget Chapman. “This mattress gives a plush innerspring feel that I think a lot of different sleepers could enjoy.” One customer writes, “I weigh 350 pounds and this is the first mattress I’ve owned that has enough support in the middle. I don’t have back pain anymore.” Another adds, “What a great night’s sleep. The edges don’t cave in.”


Best Luxury Mattress For Heavy People

Cushioning, Supportive And Packed With Cooling Materials

Nolah Evolution Comfort Plus (Queen)

Pendant Nolah’s Labor Day sale, get 35% off sitewide and two free pillows with a mattress purchase. No code required.

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 14 pouces | Limite de poids: 500 pounds per side (1,000 pounds total) | Fermeté: 5 to 6 out of 10 (medium) | Procès: 120 nuits | Garantie: Durée de vie | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • Contains thick comfort layers for extra pressure relief
  • Medium feel; good for back and side sleepers
  • Luxurious feel that’s on par with a hotel mattress

Inconvénients :

  • Probablement trop mou pour la plupart des dormeurs sur le ventre

It’s common for beds that are designed specifically for heavier body weights to be quite firm—but not the Nolah Evolution Comfort Plus. Standing at a whopping 14 inches tall, this bed was designed to be extremely supportive but also luxuriously plush. Its 13.5-gauge coils provide sleepers with stability across the bed and enhanced lumbar support to help promote a neutral spine. But the quilted Euro topper and two layers of foam on top of those coils are what give this bed more a plusher, more indulgent feel.

Another luxurious touch, this bed is built with cooling materials, from organic cotton to Nolah’s proprietary heat-dissipating fibers to a border gusset allowing heat to escape. That means hot sleepers feel comfy, supported and cool.

Ce que disent nos éditeurs et les critiques : “The Nolah Evolution Comfort Plus reminds me of a bed you’d find in a 5-star hotel,” says Chapman. “It offers a nice cushioning feel and high-quality materials that are built to last.” One customer describes the bed as “firm enough, but not too firm.” She adds she’s “waking without pain for [the] first time in a long time,” and that her “husband (heavyweight) seems to love it too.”


Best Mattress For Heavy Side Sleepers

Supportive Yet Cushioning For The Shoulders And Hips

Leesa Plus Hybrid (Queen)

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 15 pouces | Limite de poids: 500 pounds per side (1,000 pounds total) | Fermeté: 5 to 7 out of 10 (medium-firm) | Procès: 100 nuits | Garantie: 10 années | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • Supportive, yet pressure-relieving
  • Coils and gel-infused foam help keep the bed cool
  • Enhanced edge support

Inconvénients :

  • Too soft for strict stomach sleepers

For larger-bodied side sleepers, the Leesa Plus Hybrid is topped with layers of contouring memory foam that deliver comfort and pressure relief to the hips and shoulders. Additionally, its individually wrapped innersprings provide the structure necessary to keep the spine in alignment. These springs add rigidity to the edges of the mattress so it’s easier to get in and out of bed, too.

With a breathable cover and a layer of heat-dissipating gel-infused foam, the Leesa Plus Hybrid is also engineered to help sleepers stay cool throughout the night. The mattress can support two individuals weighing up to 500 pounds each, and for heavier bodies it feels like a comfortable medium-firm.

Ce que disent les critiques : “We love this bed,” says one reviewer. “The mattress is the right balance of firmness and is very supportive.” Another reviewer, who notes that mattress shopping was a struggle because her husband is much larger than she is, says, “The Leesa provides enough support for him without being too firm for me. We love it.”


Best Mattress For Heavy People With Back Pain

Helps Relieve Pressure, Aches And Pains

Saatva HD (Reine)

Taper: Hybride | Épaisseur: 15,5 pouces | Limite de poids: 500 pounds per side (1,000 pounds total) | 5 t0 7 out of 10 (medium to medium-firm) | Procès: 365 nuits | Garantie: Durée de vie | Expédition: Gratuit 

Avantages :

  • Excellent lumbar support
  • Pressure-relieving; good for shoulder and joint pain
  • Medium-firm feel appeals to all sleeping positions

Inconvénients :

  • Doesn’t fit with most standard-sized foundations and box springs

If you’re struggling with back pain caused by (or at least exacerbated by) your current mattress, the Saatva HD mattress could be the upgrade you need. The company designed it with two layers of foam that help relieve pressure and improve circulation paired with a layer of five-zone Talalay latex, the cream of the crop when it comes to mattress materials. The latex layer has a patented spinal zone technology that has different layers of density, achieved through “pinpoints” according to a customer service agent. These vary in size—smaller holes create a firmer sensation, while larger ones make the material softer. The zones create varying degrees of firmness and softness to give you maximum pressure point relief and additional lumbar support.

The memory foam and latex layers sit on top of steel coils that are 25% stronger than those of other standard spring mattresses, according to the brand, and the coils are threaded with steel wire to reinforce the mattress and help reduce motion transfer. Unlike other mattresses that come rolled in a box, all Saatva mattresses are handmade to order and delivered right to your bedroom with free white glove delivery.

Ce que disent les critiques : “I’m a bigger guy and have [suffered from an achy] back for almost a year,” says one buyer. “I no longer have an aching back. I’ve never bought a mattress online, but I did my research, and [I’m] so glad I did. Saatva has ma
