Best Mattresses for Tall People: Sleep Comfortably, Head to Toe
Find the perfect fit for your height. Our mattresses offer ample length, exceptional support, and
long-lasting comfort for taller individuals.
Why Tall People Need the Right Mattress
Finding a mattress that's long enough and provides adequate support can be a challenge for taller individuals.
A mattress that's too short can lead to discomfort and poor sleep posture, while one that lacks proper support
can cause back pain and other issues. At Amerisleep, we offer a range of mattresses in longer sizes, including
Twin XL, King, and California King, designed to provide the space and support taller sleepers need.
One satisfied customer, who is 6'6" and over 200 pounds, shared, “I've had a difficult time finding a bed that
is long enough - and more importantly does not eventually get a significant impression/sinkhole where I have
been sleeping. This is the first mattress that does not sink, is long enough, and is comfortable for my wife.
All this - plus it was a steal compared with other mattresses. I would strongly recommend this mattress.”

our King vs. California King sizes and

Exceptional Support: Our mattresses, especially the medium-firm AS2, are designed to
provide the support that taller individuals often need. High-density foams and durable coil systems
prevent excessive sinking and promote proper spinal alignment.
Pressure Relief: Our Bio-Pur® memory foam conforms to your body, relieving pressure
points regardless of your height.
Durable Construction: We use high-quality materials and construction techniques to ensure
your mattress will provide lasting comfort and support, eliminating the 'sinkholes' mentioned in customer
reviews.
Built for Support and Comfort: The Science Behind Our Mattresses
Bio-Pur®: Our plant-based memory foam provides superior pressure relief and contouring
compared to traditional memory foam. It's also more breathable, helping you stay cool throughout the
night.
HIVE® Technology: Our zoned support system, featured in the AS2 and AS3, offers targeted
support to different areas of the body. This is particularly beneficial for taller individuals who may
need extra support in the lumbar region.
Bio-Core®: Our durable base layer provides long-lasting support and prevents sagging.
This is crucial for maintaining the mattress’s shape and performance over time, especially for taller and
heavier sleepers.
Pocketed Coils (in Hybrids): Our hybrid models combine the benefits of Bio-Pur® with
individually wrapped pocketed coils for enhanced support, airflow, and motion isolation.

Choosing the Right Mattress When You're Tall
Watch as a sleep expert explains the key factors taller individuals should consider when choosing a
mattress:
Key takeaways:
Mattress Length: Ensure the mattress is long enough to accommodate your height comfortably. Consider Twin
XL, King, or Cal King sizes.
Support: Choose a mattress with a supportive core that prevents excessive sinking, especially in the hip
and shoulder areas.
Firmness: The best firmness level depends on your sleeping position and personal preference. Back and
stomach sleepers often need a medium-firm to firm mattress, while side sleepers may prefer a medium to
plush feel.
Edge Support: Good edge support is important for taller individuals, making it easier to get in and out of
bed and maximizing the usable sleep surface.
We recommend Twin XL, King, or California King mattresses for taller individuals. These sizes offer extra length compared to standard Twin and Queen sizes.
What firmness is best for tall people?
The best firmness depends on your sleeping position and personal preference. Back and stomach sleepers often prefer medium-firm to firm mattresses (like our AS2), while side sleepers may prefer a medium to plush feel (like our AS3 or AS4).
Do your mattresses have good edge support?
Yes, many of our mattresses, especially our hybrid models, feature reinforced edge support, which is beneficial for taller individuals.
What's the weight limit for your mattresses?
(Confirm the weight limit for your mattresses) Our mattresses are designed to support individuals of all sizes.
Do you offer a trial period?
Yes, we offer a 100-night, risk-free sleep trial, so you can test the mattress in your own home and ensure it's the right fit for you.
What should I do with my old mattress?
Many charities accept mattress donations. You can also check with your local waste management company for recycling options. We also offer old mattress removal services in select locations. Learn more about mattress donation options.
Do you have any showrooms where I can try out the mattresses?
Yes, we have a showroom located in Scottsdale, Arizona at the Optima Camelview. We encourage you to visit us and experience the comfort of our mattresses in person. Our knowledgeable sleep experts can answer any questions you have and help you find the perfect mattress for your needs.
