What’s better than one mattress? Two mattresses basically combined for the price of one! Most bedding manufacturers suggest sleepers don’t flip their mattress, as most beds are only designed to be one-sided. However, Brooklyn Bedding’s Plank Firm Luxe challenges that notion.
The Plank Firm Luxe is specifically designed to be flippable, so sleepers get two different comfort options all wrapped up in one unique mattress. Think of it as BOGO — just mattress-style. That’s not something you see every day in the mattress industry.
If you love the idea of snagging two beds in one, then I suggest you keep scrolling to read my in-depth review on Brooklyn Bedding’s Plank Firm Luxe mattress, but if you’re short on time, you can click here to skip to my review summary to find my main takeaways.
The Plank Firm Luxe is the brand’s hybrid mattress. Our team has also reviewed the Plank Firm mattress, the brand’s all-foam bed.

Where the Plank Firm Luxe is Featured
Here at Sleepopolis, we use a series of hands-on tests to determine which mattress roundups a bed belongs to and who it might be good for. Here are some of our 2024 mattress roundups that include the the Plank Firm Luxe’s sister mattress — the Plank Firm:
- Best Extra-Firm Mattress
- Best Mattress for a Herniated Disc
- Best Mattress for Spinal Stenosis
- Best Mattress for a Platform Bed
- Best Flippable Mattress
Plank Firm Luxe Mattress Overview
At nearly 14 inches tall, the Plank firm Luxe is a hybrid bed-in-a-box mattress that is flippable, meaning both sides of the bed offer sleepers different firmness options. This allows sleepers the ability to be able to sleep comfortably on either side of the mattress.
With the Plank Firm Luxe, Brooklyn Bedding specifically designed a mattress that would appeal to sleepers who love a firm bed and for sleepers who want to customize their sleeping experience based on different factors. This mattress comes with both a Firm and an Extra-Firm side — carving a unique niche for itself in the mattress industry as many beds aren’t designed to be dual-sided.
The side with the bed’s logo facing right side up is the extra-firm side, meaning this side doesn’t offer much sinkage, whereas, when you flip the bed over it has a completely different feel. The bottom of the mattress is the firm side, meaning this side is a tad softer than the extra-firm side and offers more cushioning and pressure relief. This is an incredibly versatile mattress and can fit the needs of many different sleepers.
The Plank Firm Luxe has a very similar feel to the Plank Firm mattress, except the firm side on the Plank Firm Luxe is the softest, plushest side either bed offers. The only difference between the two beds is that the Plank Firm is made of all-foam whereas this bed is made of a mix of coils and foam.
Like most of Brooklyn Bedding’s mattresses, the Plank Firm Luxe will arrive at your door, compressed in a box. The brand recommends that you no don’t leave this mattress rolled up longer than three weeks as it could potentially affect your bed’s expansion. I suggest you grab a friend, partner, or family member to help you unbox this bed as it is rather substantial in weight. We also recommend that you wait a day or two for the bed to fully expand and release any off-gassing or chemical smells, which is common in compressed mattresses. Read more about off-gassing and other mattress terminology in our mattress glossary.
Plank Firm Luxe Video Review
Get a closer look at how this bed looks and feels before you read my full in depth article below in my video review of the Plank Firm Luxe. You will be able to see its materials up close and how this bed performed during our tests.
Overall, I rated this mattress at a 4.4 out of 5, and you can see my individual scores for all of our testing categories at the end of the video.
Plank Firm Luxe Sleepopolis Score
The main area where we felt the Plank Firm Luxe could improve is its warranty. Even though most experts say a quality mattress should last you up to a decade, a good mattress warranty is crucial for customers as it protects them from defects and damages upon delivery. Additionally, it’s that extra layer of reassurance that the company is confident with their product’s durability.
Even though Brooklyn Bedding’s 10-year warranty is a good feature, we prefer to see a longer warranty — such as a lifetime warranty. If you are looking for a mattress with a longer warranty that should give you a better piece of mind, I suggest you check out our roundup of the best mattresses that won’t sag.
What Is the Plank Firm Luxe Mattress Made Of?
The Plank Firm Luxe is a 14-inch tall hybrid, flippable mattress, so the six layers work double duty. Since this is a hybrid mattress, it combines both coils and foam. The support layers and base foam on one side become the top layers when the mattress is flipped.
Again, when you are looking at the bed with the logo facing right-side up, that means that top layer is the extra-firm side. Today, I’ll be breaking down the Plank Firm Luxe with the extra-firm side up as well as the firm side up. Let’s go ahead and take a look at the materials used in the Plank Firm Luxe’s construction.
Extra-firm cover – The extra-firm side is designed with a .75” quilted top with patterned stitching that is soft-to-the-touch and breathable. The cover on the extra-firm side is not plush. Extra hot sleepers can add the brand’s signature GlacioTex cooling cover to be sewn into the cover for an additional $150 to the price of the Plank Firm Luxe.
Extra-firm Support Layer – Up next, you’ll find 2 inches of high-density base foam, which is incredibly supportive, firm and offers deep compression support.
Support Layer – The Plank Firm Luxe is made with 6 inches of nearly 1,000 individually encased ascension firm coils designed to promote airflow to help keep the mattress cool and focuses on supporting the sleepers’ body. The pocketed coils help the bed be bouncy and responsive, making it easy to move around on this mattress.
Firm-side Support Layer – Under the coils, you will find another 2 inches of high-density base support foam that helps bridge the gap between the coils for durability and pressure-relieving foam.
Firm Comfort Layer – Below the beefy support layer, you’ll find a layer of supreme response comfort foam that helps provide that plush, cushiony feel to the firm side rather than the firm feel on the extra-firm side. This layer helps provide the pressure-relief and body contouring, to make this side feel softer than the other.
Firm Cover – The cover on the other side of the Plank Firm Luxe is nearly identical to the top cover except for its quilting. There is an inch and a half of foam quilting on this side to increase this side’s plushness and comfortability.
Plank Firm Luxe Firmness
Now let’s talk about the firmness and feel of the Plank Firm Luxe mattress. The feel of a mattress is incredibly important in determining whether it will be a good option for you. Again, this is a flippable mattress with an extra-firm side and a firm side. I’ll discuss how those firmness options feel below.
At Sleepopolis, we rank mattress firmness on a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is the softest and 10 is the firmest. We use 6.5 as the industry standard rating for medium-firm, which is the most common mattress firmness. I do want readers to keep in mind that firmness can be a pretty subjective measurement and various factors including body type, weight, and preferred sleeping position may play a factor in how firm a mattress feels to you individually.
To determine the firmness level, I lie on the mattress in different sleeping positions. If possible, I also try to grab a few of my colleagues so we can see how well the mattress feels with different body types. Then, we compare it to the hundreds of other beds we’ve tested and give it a ranking on the Sleepopolis firmness scale.
I decided to rank the extra-firm side of the Plank Firm Luxe an 8 out of 10 on the firmness scale, meaning this side is incredibly firm. This side of the mattress doesn’t offer much sinkage, and will ensure the sleeper remains “on top” of the mattress the entire time without feeling as if their body is sinking in. This side did definitely feel as if I was sleeping on a plank, as the name suggests. This side is perfect for any sleepers who prefer a firmer mattress, especially back and stomach sleepers. Thanks to the coils and firmness, it was also incredibly easy to move around on top of this mattress.
However, the firm side of the Plank Firm Luxe offers sleepers a completely different feeling. The bottom side of the mattress (the firm side) feels more medium-firm and offers more pressure-relief than the top side. The firm side on the Plank Firm Luxe is incredibly soft and plush. This side feels more plush than it does firm so I gave it an average score of 6.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale. This side offers a true medium-firm feel thanks to the support and comfort foam being “at the top” on this side rather than below the coils, like on the extra-firm side.

Sleeping Position and Body Weight
With the firmness and feel of this mattress in mind, let’s talk about how sleepers of different weights may feel on the Plank Firm Luxe mattress in each sleeping position.
We recognize that people come in all shapes and sizes, and people of every size deserve a mattress that works for their body type and their sleeping preference. We use the weight categories light, average, and heavy to more easily categorize sleepers based on how mattresses will perform for their body type, as most mattresses are designed for the group we call “average” (130 to 250 pounds).
As a general rule, lighter sleepers don’t require as much support as average weight sleepers, and mattresses will tend to feel firmer to them. On the other hand, heavy sleepers tend to need more support than average weight sleepers and tend to sink into the mattress more.
As far as sleeping positions go, side sleepers tend to need a softer mattress while stomach sleepers usually need a firmer, more supportive one. Back sleepers are usually somewhere in the middle.
Here are my thoughts on how each group of people will feel on the Plank Firm Luxe.
Is the Plank Firm Luxe a Good Mattress for Light Sleepers (Under 130 pounds)?
- Light Back Sleepers – These sleepers who prefer a firm mattress should be happy on the firm side of this mattress. This bed does a great job of supporting and lifting their body, however, these sleepers tend to think a mattress feels more firm than people who weigh more than them so the extra-firm side will probably be too firm for these sleepers. They may prefer the firm side instead.
- Light Side Sleepers – These sleepers may feel comfortable on the firm side of this mattress since it is more plush but it still may be a tad too firm to offer good pressure relief for these sleepers’ joints, which these sleepers need. I would not recommend the extra-firm side for these sleepers.
- Light Stomach Sleepers – Similar to light back sleepers, I think that the less firm side of this mattress will also be a hit for these sleepers, because while it has a softer layer, it’s not enough for the hips to sink too deep. This will also ensure their spines stay in neutral alignment.
Is the Plank Firm Luxe a Good Mattress for Average Weight Sleepers (130–250 pounds)?
- Average Weight Back Sleepers – Depending on these sleepers’ preference, average-weight sleepers could be comfortable on either side. The softer, firm side can be great for those with back pain, but the extra-firm side is perfect for regular average-weight sleepers back sleepers who prefer a firmer feel.
- Average Weight Side Sleepers – The firm side of the Plank Firm Luxe is soft and plush enough to contours to these sleepers’ joints, like shoulders and hips, while offering good pressure relief at the same time.
- Average Weight Stomach Sleepers – I think that most average weight stomach sleepers would enjoy the Plank Firm Luxe. The extra-firm side is perfect for keeping the body lifted and supported the entire time. My hips did sink in just a tad on the firm side, however, my body was still supported and my spine remained in neutral alignment.
Is the Plank Firm Luxe a Good Mattress for Heavy Sleepers (over 250 pounds)?
- Heavy Back Sleepers – Most heavy-weight sleepers should be comfortable on either side of the Plank Firm Luxe. The extra-firm side is perfect for giving these sleepers a supportive, firm feel, whereas the firm side is perfect for sleepers looking for more plushness and comfort around their lower lumbar region while still having their body supported due to the coils.
- Heavy Side Sleepers – I think that the firm side of the Plank Firm Luxe mattress could be a good match for heavy side sleepers, as they should get that needed cushion and pressure relief around their shoulders and hips, especially since this bed will feel even softer to these sleepers.
- Heavy Stomach Sleepers – Similar to the heavy back sleepers, the extra-firm side of the Plank Firm Luxe is perfect for these sleepers to keep their bodies lifted. On the firm side, these sleepers’ hips may sink in, causing their spine to be out of alignment so I would only recommend the extra-firm side for these sleepers.
Plank Firm Luxe Mattress Performance
Our testers look at a variety of different performance factors to determine whether certain beds will be compatible for certain bodies. It’s one thing to feel the mattress, but seeing how your body will react to the mattress is a different factor entirely. Just like our bodies — mattresses are all created uniquely.
We also run tests on performance factors like pressure relief, motion isolation, cooling, and edge support. Below, I’ll go over the results from my tests on the Plank Firm Luxe mattress to showcase how well this bed performs in these areas.
Motion Transfer
Sharing the bed with your partner is seen as a common romantic gesture in relationships, however, do you know what’s not romantic? Waking up due to your partner’s constant tossing and turning. A mattress that isolates motion is important for people sharing the bed with their partner or their pet. Motion transfer is the amount of movement that travels through the mattress when it’s touched or disturbed. This is important so you aren’t woken up in the middle night due to your partner’s every toss and turn.
We come up with our motion transfer score using a few different tests.
Human Test
The first test is quite simple: we just lie down on the mattress with a colleague, roll around, and see how much of each other’s movement we feel. I initially wore an eye mask while a colleague of mine came in and out of the bed.
On both the extra-firm and firm side of this mattress, I felt everything my colleague was doing on their side of the bed. I could feel him getting in and out of the bed, I felt him toss and turn quite a bit and — at one point — my body literally jumped due to him jumping into the bed, showing that my side of the bed was heavily impacted by him moving around on his side of the bed.
Water Test
We also place a full water glass on the mattress, and see how much the water moves around with us. If the liquid has zero to little movement, then it’s a safe bet that the mattress has low motion transfer, which is what you want to see. After placing the water on one side of the bed, I moved to the other side of the bed and tested getting in and out of the mattress. On the extra-firm side, there was a lot of motion in the glass, especially when I was getting in and out of the bed as well as switching positions. However, I was surprised to see that the glass of water didn’t move as much when placed on the firm side.
Seismometer Test
Finally, there’s our seismometer test. This involves dropping a 10 pound steel ball from heights of four inches, eight inches, and 12 inches, then measuring the disturbance it causes. The bigger the lines on the graph, the bigger the disturbance and the higher the motion transfer. As you’ll see in the graphic below, each height is meant to mimic a different movement you might feel in bed.
In all, these are decent motion-transfer results, especially for a hybrid mattress with coil layers. These results aren’t horrible, and actually represent quite a common amount of motion transfer for a hybrid bed since these tend to be more bouncy and responsive due to the coils.
After all of my tests, I ended up giving the Plank Firm Luxe mattress an average score for motion isolation, so this bed may be good for couples who don’t have restless partners. If you do have a partner who tosses and turns alot in their sleep, I suggest you check out the Plank Firm mattress instead as it did a fantastic job at isolating motion.
Responsiveness
A bed’s responsiveness reflects on how easy it is to move around on the surface of your mattress. We like to test each mattress’s responsiveness by pressing down on its top layer, removing our hand, and seeing how quickly the surface returns to its original shape. This is an easy test you can do at home as well to test for your bed’s responsiveness.
Memory foam mattresses usually have a low response to pressure, thanks to their slow-moving foams, whereas hybrid mattresses with coils (such as the Plank Firm Luxe) tend to have a high response to pressure due to the springy coils. Responsive mattresses are usually good for sex since they make it easy to change positions and move around. These traits also make them good for combination sleepers who switch sleeping positions at night.
I tested the Plank Firm Luxe’s responsiveness by moving around on the mattress and changing between different sleeping positions. The mattress is incredibly bouncy and was very easy for me to change sleeping positions and to move freely on top of this mattress. It felt like I was on a trampoline. I gave this bed a perfect score for responsiveness so this bed is an excellent pick for combination sleepers as well as a good bed for sex!
Cooling
Many people are hot sleepers — it’s nothing to be embarrassed about. However, what’s not common is waking up in the middle of the night in a puddle of your own sweat. There are several factors these sleepers should consider when looking at whether a mattress will trap body heat. First and foremost, we look at the mattress’ construction.
Since the Plank Firm Luxe is made with a 6-inch core of nearly 1,000 individually encased coils, there’s plenty of room for air to flow through the mattress and keep it cool. Besides the coils, this mattress isn’t made with any specific other cooling properties in mind. However, extra hot sleepers can add a GacioTex cooling cover to be sewn into the surface of this bed for an additional fee.
We also test out each mattress with a device called a thermal gun, which uses color-coded imaging to measure how much and how quickly a mattress heats up when we lie down on it. If it heats up more than 15 degrees Fahrenheit, we consider it to have poor cooling capabilities. 10 to 15 degrees indicates decent cooling, 5 to 10 degrees indicates good cooling, and less than 5 degrees indicates excellent cooling.
After five minutes of lying on the Plank Firm Luxe, it increased around 5 degrees, which indicates pretty great regulation. That said, I feel the Plank Firm Luxe could be a solid option for many hot sleepers.
Keep in mind that several outside factors can affect cooling, including the temperature of your bedroom, how close your bed is to an air vent or window, and your body’s own temperature, which can vary from person to person.
Edge Support
Edge support refers to how well the perimeter of the bed bears weight. If you’ve ever sat on the edge or corner of the bed and it instantly sank to the platform, then that mattress had bad edge support. Ideally, you want to be able to sit or lie along the edge of the mattress without feeling like the bed is going to collapse underneath you. This is helpful for couples who like to maximize the surface area of their bed, heavier people who want to avoid their bed from premature sagging, or people with mobility issues who need extra support when getting in and out of bed.
When sitting and laying on the side of the mattress, I felt very supported here and comfortable. There was barely any sinkage on the edge of the bed. I personally like to test the corner of the mattress as well during this test because I know many people use the corner to get in and out of the bed or even rest on it when tying their shoes. There was a decent amount of sinkage when sitting on the corner, but my body still felt rather supported. I measured the sinkage with a yardstick, and the bed sank about exactly two inches which isn’t a bad result.
Even though there was slight sinkage, I was still impressed by the edge support on the Plank Firm Luxe. Since this mattress is dual-sided, that also helps increase the longevity of the mattress as sleepers can switch off using either side of the mattress.
My Final Thoughts about the Plank Firm Luxe Mattress
Finally, we’ve made it to the end of my review of the Plank Firm Luxe. As you can see, I thoroughly enjoyed testing this mattress and think this is a very versatile mattress. But now, you gotta ask yourself: Is The Plank Firm Luxe the best mattress for me?
Even though my findings are subjective, these are my recommendations of who should and shouldn’t buy the Plank Firm Luxe mattress.
Who I Recommend the Plank Firm Luxe Mattress For
- Side sleepers should really be comfortable on the firm side of this mattress, whereas, either the firm or extra-firm side should work for most back sleepers and stomach sleepers, no matter your weight.
- Sleepers who fall into the heavy-weight category, people who weigh over 250 pounds, should feel incredibly supported on this bed.
- I would recommend this bed for all hot sleepers as this bed did a great job at absorbing body heat and keeping the sleeper cool.
- Since this bed scored well in our cooling, edge support, and responsiveness tests, this mattress is an excellent option for couples.
- Combination sleepers should find it super easy to move around and switch between positions on this mattress.
Who I Don’t Recommend the Plank Firm Luxe Mattress For
- Most sleepers should be able to enjoy both sides of this mattress, however, I think lightweight sleepers, people weighing less than 130 pounds, will only be able to sleep comfortably on the firm side — so these sleepers probably wouldn’t be able to enjoy the flippable design of this mattress.
- Even though you are basically getting two beds for the price of one, this bed is a pretty good deal for the price, especially if you use our coupons to save even more. However, since this mattress is made with more materials than the Plank Firm mattress, that bed is just a tad cheaper than the Plank Firm Luxe. So if you have a tighter budget, I’d recommend the Plank Firm rather than the Plank Firm Luxe since both beds offer a very similar feel except the Plank Firm being a tad cheaper than the Plank Firm Luxe.
Plank Firm Luxe Pricing and Sizing
Price is incredibly important when deciding whether a mattress is a good fit for you. I personally don’t recommend even considering a mattress if it’s outside of your budget. Why open your heart up to disappointment?

Plank Firm Luxe Policies and FAQs
How frequently should I rotate my flippable mattress?
Brooklyn Bedding recommends rotating your Plank 180 degrees every six to eight months.
How is the Plank Firm Luxe shipped?
The Plank Firm Luxe mattress is a bed-in-a-box and will be shipped to you free and will arrive compressed. I suggest that you should allow 24 to 48 hours for off-gassing once you unwrap your new mattress and so that the mattress has time to fully inflate. This bed is also rather hefty so I recommend you get a friend or family member to help you unbox it.
Does the Plank Firm Luxe come with a sleep trial?
Yes, Brooklyn Bedding has a 120-night sleep trial for mattresses only.
Does the Plank Firm Luxe come with a warranty?
Yes, Brooklyn Bedding offers a 10-year warranty on all of their mattresses.
Plank Firm Luxe Vs
Still debating on whether or not the Plank Firm Luxe is right for you? Take a look at how it compares to a few other flippable mattresses on the market.
Plank Firm Luxe vs Zenhaven
Our team chose the Zenhaven mattress as the best luxurious flippable mattress due to its high-quality materials such as a cover of 100 percent organic cotton and New Zealand wool, followed by several plush latex comfort layers and a dense support layer. Similar to the Plank Firm Luxe, the Zenhaven also offers two different firmness options thanks to its flippable design. However, unlike the Plank Firm Luxe, both of the Zenhaven’s sides lie close to the industry standard of medium firm (6.5 out of 10) — Zenhaven’s Luxury Plush side scored 6 out of 10 on the firmness scale and its Gentle Firm side scored 7.5 out of 10 firmness, meaning overall, this mattress is more plush than the Plank Firm Luxe.
- Price: The Plank Firm Luxe is a lot cheaper than the Zenhaven, by over $1,700 for a queen size.
- Sleeping position: The Zenhaven, with its dual-sided construction, is well-suited for most sleeping positions. We recommend the Gentle Firm side for back sleepers and stomach sleepers who tend to need more support, and the Luxury Plush side for side sleepers who need more pressure relief and contouring.
- Cooling: Being a latex bed, the Zenhaven is naturally cooling. The combination of the natural Talalay latex, breathable organic cotton cover, and New Zealand wool allow this mattress to regulate body temperature and prevent overheating throughout the night.
- Body weight: Due to its flippable design, the Zenhaven is a versatile mattress and can accommodate most sleepers’ weights’ and sleep styles.

Plank Firm Luxe vs Layla
Similar to the Plank Firm Luxe’s sibling the Plank Firm, the Layla is an all-foam, flippable bed featuring both a “Soft” and “Firm” side. The Layla is built with copper-infused memory foam and offers that classic memory foam feel. Both of its comfort layers are fantastic for pressure relief, with lots of hug-like contouring and comfortable sinkage. Its two firmness levels should appeal to a wide range of sleepers as its soft side scored a 5.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale and the firm side scored a 7.5 out of 10 on the firmness scale.
- Price: The Layla is just a tad cheaper than the Plank Firm Luxe, by less than $400 for a queen size.
- Sleeping position: The soft side of the Layla is great for side sleepers who appreciate pressure relief and deep sinkage. The firm side is a nice choice for stomach sleepers who need some extra support. That keeps their hips in line with their shoulders.
- Cooling: The Layla has good cooling, thanks to its copper-infused memory foam layer. The copper helps dissipate body heat.
- Body weight: We didn’t find the Layla supportive enough for heavy sleepers, people who weigh 250 pounds or more. I don’t think these sleepers will get the support they need.

Other Models from Brooklyn Bedding
Besides the Plank Firm Luxe, Brooklyn Bedding offers a variety of different unique mattresses that are made for specific sleepers in mind. Take a look at some of their other popular models below.
Plank Firm Luxe vs Plank Firm
Even though the Plank Firm and the Plank Firm Luxe both offer a flippable, dual-sided design and have a similar feel, the Plank Firm is made entirely of all-foam, whereas the Plank Firm Luxe. Both of the Plank mattresses offer firm support and different firmness options since they’re flippable. However, the Plank Firm offers a firmer feel overall and would be the best bet if you want an extra firm mattress. (It’s one of the firmest mattresses we’ve tested). The Plank Firm’s extra-firm side scored a 8.5 out of 10 on our firmness scorecard, whereas, its firm side scored 7.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale, meaning the Plank Firm is way more firm compared to the Plank Firm Luxe.
- Price: The Plank Firm is the brand’s least expensive mattress and is cheaper than the Plank Firm Luxe by about $200 for a queen size.
- Sleeping position: The Plank Firm First is too firm for any strict side sleepers, as this bed won’t offer them the body contouring around their joints, which these sleepers need. However, it should work for most back and stomach sleepers.
- Cooling: For being an all-foam mattress, this bed did a decent job at cooling our bodies but it doesn’t come with any specific cooling properties. Extra hot sleepers can add a GlacioTex cooling cover to be sewn into the surface of the bed for an additional fee.
- Body weight: Most average-to-heavyweight sleepers should feel incredibly supported on the Plank Firm.
Brooklyn Bedding Plank Firm Mattress
The Plank mattress is an all-foam, flippable mattress with a firm side and an extra-firm side, which makes it great for both back sleepers and stomach sleepers. Both sides of the mattress should provide stomach sleepers with the right amount of support needed, while back sleepers will be happiest on the firm side.

Ray, Brooklyn Bedding customerPlank Firm Luxe vs Titan Plus
The Titan Plus Mattress is a substantial mattress and was designed specifically for heavier sleepers. The Titan Plus achieves this impressive level of support by including six inches of 961 heavy duty coils, along with a bottom layer of high-density foam. Heavier sleepers can obtain sufficient pressure relief with the two inches of a latex alternative foam that’s still responsive enough to help keep the body lifted and in proper alignment. The Titan Plus is a firm, supportive mattress and scored a 7.5 out of 10 on our firmness scale.
- Price: The Titan Plus is just a tad cheaper than the Plank Firm Luxe by about $200 for a queen size.
- Sleeping position: Similar to the Plank Firm Luxe, I don’t think the Titan Plus is the best mattress for strict side sleepers, especially light side sleepers. I don’t think they’ll achieve the sinkage they need for pressure relief at the hips and shoulders. However, if you’re a heavier combo sleeper who spends some time on their side, it could work just fine. The Titan Plus is great for back and stomach sleepers.
- Cooling: This bed does tend to run a bit hot, but additional cooling technology (proprietary GlacioTex cooling cover) can be purchased for sleepers concerned about overheating.
- Body weight: Most average-to-heavyweight sleepers should feel incredibly supported on the Titan Plus.

Shante, Brooklyn Bedding customerOur Review Process
At Sleepopolis, our team of Certified Sleep Science Coaches personally test each mattress. We start by unboxing the mattress to figure out how difficult (or easy) it is to get the mattress from the box to the bed. Then, we spend time laying on the bed in different positions, taking time to assess it on our backs, stomachs, and sides. Next, we perform our Sleepopolis tests, using specialized tools to measure qualities like motion transfer, bounce, and pressure relief. Our last step is to open up the mattress and take a look at each layer. These steps allow us to give our final verdict on the mattress.
