Buy Leesa
The Leesa Plus Hybrid Mattress is a 13-inch thick mattress designed for heavier sleepers, supporting up to 500 lbs per side. It has a medium-firm feel and is suitable for all sleeping positions. The mattress features a combination of comfort and support layers, including a quilted cover, poly foam, and pocketed coils. It excels in cooling performance, has moderate sinkage, and provides excellent pressure relief. However, it has higher motion transfer, which may be a concern for couples. The mattress has a fast response time, good edge support, and is rated highly for sexual activity. It has a strong initial odor that dissipates within six days. Leesa offers a 100-night trial and a 10-year warranty, which are shorter than the industry average. The mattress is competitively priced and delivers above-average performance for plus-sized sleepers.
