Beds For Heavy People

130 kg beds

The weight rating on these beds means that they are suitable for sleepers of up to 130 kg. This range has the most options available giving you a good choice. You can choose between memory foam, pocket spring, High-density foam and latex.

140-160 kg beds

There is still quite a variety of beds available in this weight category and you will find something that will suit you. There are a few comfort levels to choose from in this range.

160-180 kg beds

This weight range has the least amount of options available and the highest weight option is a very firm bed. You can however purchase a mattress topper that will provide a bit more comfort and help you sleep well.

Shop Beds by Weight Capacity

Our beds for heavier sleepers include options across the following weight categories:

• 130kg per person
• 140kg per person
• 150kg per person
• 160kg per person
• 180kg per person

The stated weight capacity is per person. This is particularly important when choosing a Double, Queen or King bed for a heavier or plus-size couple.

130kg Beds

Beds rated to 130kg per person offer the widest choice in our heavy-duty range. Depending on the model, you can choose between different mattress constructions and comfort levels, including memory foam, pocket spring, high-density foam and other supportive options.

If you weigh close to the maximum recommended weight, you may also want to consider moving up to the next weight category for additional capacity.

140kg to 160kg Beds

We offer a good selection of beds suitable for sleepers in the 140kg to 160kg weight range.

At these higher weights, look beyond mattress firmness alone. The mattress needs the correct weight rating, while the base needs to provide suitable structural support for everyday use.

Different comfort levels are available, so choosing a heavy-duty bed doesn’t necessarily mean you have to sleep on an extremely hard mattress.

160kg to 180kg Beds

For sleepers requiring our highest weight capacities, we have beds rated from 160kg up to 180kg per person.

There are fewer options available at these higher weight ratings, and some models use firmer, high-density constructions to provide the required support and durability.

If you need a high-weight-capacity bed but prefer a softer sleeping surface, a compatible mattress topper can provide additional surface comfort without changing the underlying support of the mattress.

Heavy-Duty Beds for Plus-Size Couples

Choosing a bed for a heavier couple requires a little more consideration than simply choosing between a Queen and King.

First, check the weight rating per person. If a bed is rated to 160kg per person, for example, each sleeper should individually fall within the manufacturer’s recommended weight limit.

You should also consider the construction and support of the bed base. A strong mattress needs an appropriately supportive base beneath it, particularly when the bed will carry higher loads every night.

For couples, a Queen or King size heavy-duty bed can provide additional sleeping space while still offering the higher weight capacity required by heavier sleepers.

What Should a Heavy Person Look for When Buying a Bed?

When choosing the best bed for a heavier person, consider more than just whether the mattress feels firm.

Look at:

• Weight capacity per person – make sure your weight falls within the manufacturer’s recommended limit.
• Bed base construction – the base must provide adequate support for both the mattress and sleepers.
• Mattress construction – high-density foam, pocket spring, innerspring and other constructions provide different types of support.
• Comfort level – heavier sleepers don’t automatically need the hardest bed available.
• Bed size – couples may benefit from the additional sleeping space of a Queen or King.
• Warranty – always use the bed within the manufacturer’s recommended specifications.
