If you are a heavy person, it is crucial to find a mattress topper thick enough to support your frame while being soft enough to ease pressure points.
Memory foam toppers may be suitable for heavy sleepers, while latex offers another natural and breathable option suitable for heavy people.
Saatva Graphite Mattress Topper
The Saatva Graphite Mattress Topper is an ideal solution for anyone seeking to extend the life of their memory foam or latex mattress by adding extra comfort. Constructed of two layers of breathable organic cotton and featuring elastic anchor bands in its corners to stay in place during movement during sleep, as well as three inches of graphite-infused memory foam which regulates temperature while relieving pressure points, this three-inch topper offers all-night support and relieves pressure points for greater restful nights of restful slumber.
Like the rest of Saatva’s mattress toppers, this one comes in seven sizes — twin, twin XL, full, queen, king California king and split king — to ensure you find one that perfectly meets your needs. Furthermore, it is CertiPUR-US certified, guaranteeing it meets rigorous health and environmental standards.
This topper is ideal for back and side sleepers alike, providing exceptional support to align the spine while offering pressure relief on hips and shoulders. However, stomach sleepers should steer clear as its soft feel could allow their hips to sink too deeply resulting in backache over time.
All Saatva mattress toppers feature an organic cotton cover and elastic anchor bands in each corner to firmly anchor them to your existing mattress. In addition, each topper boasts a 3″ layer of foam – its material depending on which topper material it’s constructed with; for instance, graphite versions contain cooling graphite which helps alleviate heat retention caused by memory foam while latex and foam options have more traditional polyfoam layers.
Even though all three mattress toppers offer superior build quality, our preference for heavy people would be the Graphite option as its temperature regulation feature stands out. Unlike typical memory foam solutions, the graphite design pulls heat away from your mattress surface and disperses it evenly throughout the night so you can remain cool and comfortable all through your restful slumber.
Graphite topper performed exceptionally well when tested on a king-size mattress, staying put despite multiple testers moving throughout the night. While other models we tried began shifting after only a few days of use, Graphite proved surprising stable and supportive.
Dreamfoam
Dreamfoam Mattress offers high-performance all-foam mattresses at an incredible value, featuring zonal body support at an incredibly reasonable cost. Its gel swirl memory foam and high-density foam core provide superior comfort to all sleepers while being an ideal solution for back pain sufferers due to contoured memory foam that contours to the body’s curves and relieves pressure points. Furthermore, its cool premium cover is hypoallergenic with four times the moisture absorption capability of cotton for drier, cooler sleep than its cotton counterpart!
This mattress comes in three firmness options – soft, medium, and firm – to meet different sleeping preferences. Soft and medium models are suitable for side and stomach sleepers while back sleepers will appreciate Talalay latex’s contoured top layer contouring around shoulders and hips to maintain neutral spine alignment; heavier back sleepers may experience some sagging after prolonged use.
Dreamfoam mattresses are proudly assembled in the United States and come with a 100-night sleep trial to ensure buyer satisfaction. If they’re not quite right, buyers can exchange it for something different or receive free shipping and a 10-year limited warranty from Dreamfoam.
Brooklyn Bedding is well-known for their quality mattresses manufactured in the US, and their Dreamfoam line is no different. Their Dreamfoam Essential mattress stands out with a Eurotop cover made of soft yet durable fabric treated with an environmentally friendly Nano Stain Terminator finish to prevent indentations or discolorations of its fabric surface. Furthermore, multiple foam layers provide pressure point relief and enhanced contouring capabilities for an unparalleled sleep experience.
The mattress offers five thickness levels and firmness levels, including two ultra-soft and two medium options. Its ultra-soft layers are constructed of premium gel memory foam while medium options contain 2.5″ gel memory foam layers paired with 6″ encased coil layers for superior support. Firm models provide back sleepers with a secure base while soft, medium, and firm models can offer comfort to side and stomach sleepers alike.
Plushbeds Latex Mattress Topper
This mattress topper provides a combination of comfort layers that will provide maximum support to sleepers regardless of sleeping position. A two-inch plush fiberfill layer helps soften the surface of your bed, while its two-inch gel cooling memory foam layer helps reduce heat build-up and promote airflow for an unparalleled sleeping experience. Furthermore, its detachable design makes experimenting with various combinations easy so as to suit individual preferences or sleeping conditions.
Though this topper may not offer cutting-edge features like those found in the Purple Topper, it remains an excellent option for heavy people due to its durable materials and versatility. Available in various sizes and thicknesses with or without cotton cover options available; constructed using natural latex that’s hypoallergenic, dust mite resistant, and provides exceptional breathability – this topper offers excellent value!
This topper is also eco-friendly, free from harmful chemicals and producing no environmental impact during production. Constructed to last years and protect any household’s investment. Furthermore, a five-year warranty offers added peace of mind should any issues arise over time.
This topper is ideal for heavy people as it provides additional cushioning and support over an existing mattress. Crafted with natural latex, its three-inch thickness can be customized based on personal preference and comes in either soft or medium firmness options; soft models may suit back and stomach sleepers who prefer soft surfaces while medium options provide more support to heavier sleepers.
Plushbeds’ mattress topper is designed with breathability in mind and features a luxurious cotton cover, making it breathable and soft against your skin. Available in multiple bed sizes with corner straps to help secure it to the mattress, it comes with an 18 month money back trial period backed by Plushbeds themselves as well as being made in America with manufacturing taking place here as well. Plushbeds also offers a GOLS Dunlop latex version that’s not currently for purchase online but you can contact the company directly requesting custom orders by calling Plushbeds directly if interested.
Parachute Down Mattress Topper
Strategist co-founder Alex Savy’s personal choice is this 3-inch feather bed, which can significantly improve the feel of almost any mattress. Constructed with responsibly sourced European white down and featuring an ultra soft sateen cotton cover. The down is secured using three-dimensional baffle box stitching, preventing it from shifting around while you sleep. It provides excellent pressure relief while limiting motion transfer (something pet owners and couples will appreciate). This topper features a breathable organic cotton cover to keep you cool during the night and elastic anchor bands to help it remain in place. Shipping is free; compressed packaging may cause a slight scent upon opening; this typically dissipates within minutes.
This feather bed provides a soft pillow-top experience perfect for back sleepers or those with allergies. Constructed from hypoallergenic microfiber fill and featuring a removable machine-washable cotton cover, this budget-friendly option doesn’t provide as much support or movement isolation. However, its bulkier form makes it less suitable than others and means spot cleaning will have to suffice; unfortunately it cannot go in the dryer!
Coop Home Goods’ extra-soft topper may help you sleep hot, thanks to its crosscut memory foam and soft microfiber blend that offers antiallergy support or provides relief if down is an aversion factor. Our final topper measures five inches thick. But its wide elastic bands help it remain securely attached. This mattress topper is ideal for refreshing tired mattresses in guest bedrooms and rental homes, and features an impressive 180-day trial period. Additionally, dry cleaning only should be used as this topper may cause irreparable damage if put through your washing machine. While not as supportive as our top picks, it still does a decent job alleviating back and neck pain.
