Are Nest Bedding Mattresses Good For Heavy People?

Nest Bedding does not have a dedicated mattress for heavy people, but a few of their models are worth recommending, based on their material composition.

The Nest Bedding Owl and Sparrow are likely the best options for heavy people, especially if you opt for their firm options. I would recommend avoiding their soft firmness options, as this would likely create too much sinkage for heavier bodies.

That being said, not all heavy sleepers prefer the feel of a super firm mattress. And the good news is that you don’t necessarily have to have a firm feel to feel support, as a heavier sleeper.

Both of these mattresses have thicker comfort layers that let heavier bodies sink in before hitting the support layer below. Furthermore, these mattresses both earned 10/10 scores for pressure relief.

Furthermore, Nest Bedding offers a free replacement of their comfort layers at any point during its lifespan. Heavy sleepers may wear their mattress out quicker and may feel sagging or indentations forming in the foam layers. This Lifetime Renewal Exchange program from Nest Bedding can extend the life of your mattress at no extra cost.

All that said, if you weigh over 300+ lbs, I would strongly recommend an HD mattress specifically designed for plus-sized sleepers. You can see our guide for Best Mattresses for Heavy People here.
