Bunk mattresses for heavier people
Updated Oct 26, 2026 · 4 makers’ own size lists checked · findings from 6 independent testing sites · How we pick
Every mattress for heavier people we could find that’s sold in exactly 36 × 84 inches, the Bunk (36 × 84) size. Mattresses for heavier people are firmer and thicker, with stronger coils or denser foam, so they don’t sag or bottom out under more weight.
How we check: each size is checked against the maker’s own size list. Mattresses independent reviewers found supportive for people over about 230 lb, plus heavy-duty models the maker builds for heavier sleepers.
