Review High Points

Our favorite aspects:

• The WinkBed PLUS mattress is made in the USA at the WinkBeds factory in Wisconsin. 
• All WinkBeds mattresses are made with eco-friendly CertiPUR-US certified foam layers.
• WinkBeds customers can rest easy with a lifetime warranty that covers their mattress against manufacturing defects.
• Plus size sleepers get extra durable support layers, including contouring micro-coils and pocketed coils.
• This WinkBed mattress review covers the Plus mattress, but WinkBeds also offers other firmness levels like the softer, luxury firm, and firmer mattresses.

Our Methodology

When we bring a new mattress into our sleep lab, we run it through a hands-on review process that culminates in 14 category scores and a total score. These categories cover a mattress’s performance, functionality, and the mattress company’s social responsibility. Our total score is a weighted average of all the combined scores.

⭐Total Score for the WinkBeds Plus Mattress: 8.2/10⭐

WinkBeds Plus Positives and Negatives

✅ Pros

• Spine Alignment: The WinkBeds coil system and extra support foam layers keep plus size sleepers balanced and aligned from neck to tailbone.
• Responsiveness: The foam comfort layers move when you move, so you don’t feel trapped in the mattress surface.
• Cooling: The PLUS is constructed to enable lots of airflow, which minimizes heat retention and keeps you comfortably cool. 
• Durability: The WinkBeds PLUS is constructed with high-density foam that is 50% more dense than the standard foam used in an innerspring mattress. In other words, it’s considered sag-proof. 

❌ Cons

• While edge support may not be a deal-breaker for many, it can be a must-have for the elderly person who needs help getting out of bed. We only scored this bed a 6.6 out of 10 in our mattress lab, so yes, you can do better.
• If the motion isolation isn’t great, you can be disturbed every time someone jumps in or out of bed. This mattress only scored a 5.6/10 for that in our lab.
• This mattress only scored a 7.25 out of 10 in pressure relief, which isn’t ideal for the side sleeper.

Spine Alignment

Sleepers with bigger figures need their body weight to be evenly distributed in order to feel well supported. When your weight is balanced on the mattress, we call that good spinal alignment.

We test spinal alignment by having our testers lie on their sides, and then we track the curve of their spines from neck to tailbone. The WinkBeds Plus did a great job of keeping both of our testers’ backs straight, which is why we give it an 8.5/10 for spinal alignment.

Motion Transfer

According to our testers, the WinkBeds Plus struggled a bit to keep motion transfer to a minimum. Both felt a lot of movement while their partner rolled around and climbed out of bed. 

We also noticed that the WinkBeds Plus struggled to handle its wine. In other words, when we placed a glass of red wine on the mattress and rolled around a bit, the glass tilted precariously.  

So for the total motion transfer test, the WinkBeds Plus scored a 5.6/10. Check out the video of the wine test below.

Pressure Relief

We detect areas of high pressure using a heat map on the mattress surface. Cool tones equal low pressure and warm tones reveal high pressure.

We saw mostly blues and greens around our first tester, with warmer tones near her hips. Our second tester showed quite a bit of red near his shoulders, so for the total pressure relief score, the WinkBeds Plus earned 7.25/10.

Firmness Rating

If you’re a heavier sleeper (over 300lbs), the WinkBeds Plus has a medium firm feel, or 6.5/10 on the firmness scale. If you weigh less than 300lbs, this mattress will feel much more firm.

Sleeping Position Support

The Plus is best for back sleepers, stomach sleepers, and combo sleepers, but it may feel a little firm for side sleepers.

Temperature Regulation

We gave the WinkBeds Plus an 8/10 for cooling. It wasn’t quite cool-to-the-touch, but the breathable cover, gel-infused foam, and coil systems kept the mattress temperature neutral.

Weight Support

The WinkBeds Plus has a weight capacity of 900lbs, though it’s worth noting that the Plus is made with more supportive materials than the other WinkBeds firmness levels.

What Bed Frames are Compatible?

WinkBeds recommends supporting your new mattress on their bed frame, but the Plus will work just fine on any firm, flat surface. Make sure that mattresses larger than a queen size have rigid center support. Slatted bed frames should have no more than 4” between the slats.

Inside Construction

The WinkBeds Plus mattress has a hybrid construction of foam, latex, and coils. Specifically, the Plus features a high-density latex foam layer that provides the needed responsiveness and bounce for heavier users.

Unboxing and Set-up

The WinkBeds mattress is delivered compressed and rolled in a 20″ x 20″ x 44″ box. It takes a few minutes to unbox the mattress and unroll it on your bed frame. Once the plastic packaging is cut off, it rises to its full size pretty quickly. You may notice a slight off-gassing odor, but if you open a window the smell should be gone in a few hours.

Is WinkBeds Plus the Right Choice?

We think the WinkBeds Plus is worth the plunge if you’re a plus size person who wants a firm, durable mattress. The Plus is particularly well-suited to back sleepers and stomach sleepers. If you need a little more pressure relief, check out the Helix Plus mattress. 

How Does the WinkBeds Plus Compare to Other Mattresses?

We rounded up a few other mattresses designed for larger folks. Here’s how the WinkBeds Plus compares:

• The Saatva HD is considered a luxury mattress, so it’s priced considerably higher than the WinkBeds Plus. The Saatva provides better motion transfer and pressure relief.
• The Big Fig has similar pricing to the WinkBeds Plus. It offers less motion transfer and heat retention, but the Big Fig and WinkBeds Plus provide about the same amount of pressure relief.
• The Brooklyn Bedding Titan is firmer than the Plus, but has very similar performance scores. It scored higher than the Plus for motion isolation and it costs a bit less.
