Is the Lull Mattress Good for Heavy People?

Derek Hales

Published

Lull does not make a mattress specifically designed for heavy people (over 250+ lbs.), but their Luxe models are most suitable for heavier bodies.

Lull does not explicitly state the weight limit on any of their mattresses, but our testing indicates that the all-foam Original models are not suitable for heavy people.

See the table below for additional details about specific Lull models that we’ve tested to date:

The premium Lull models have more than enough material to support a heavier body and provide comfort. These all have hybrid designs with robust pocketed coil units and reinforced edge foam to bolster the perimeter of each mattress.

That being said, both of these hybrids also have a medium feel, which may be too soft for many heavy sleepers, especially those who prefer a firmer feel.

The best model for heavier sleepers would likely be the Lull Luxe Premium Hybrid, as it has the most material for bodies to sink into and the best edge support score. But its level of sinkage may prove to be excessive for optimal back and stomach sleeping.

The 10″ Lull Original would not be recommended for heavier sleepers due to the lack of both comfort and support material, which is insufficient for heavy bodies.
