The WinkBeds Plus is a good option for heavier side sleepers. This Firm mattress offers great body conformity for people in that weight category, so you'll sink into it enough to relieve pressure on your arm and shoulder. However, its body conformity for average-weight people is just okay, and if you always sleep on your side, you'll probably want more pressure relief. It's not a good option for people in the lighter weight category, who won't compress its comfort layers enough for comfortable side sleeping.
Adequate body conformity for average-weight people.
Great body conformity for heavier people.
Poor body conformity for lighter people.

The WinkBeds Plus is best suited for lighter and average-weight stomach sleepers. It offers good support for average-weight people and great support for lighter people, which will help keep your hips supported. While it's adequately supportive for heavier individuals as well, you may want more support to prevent your back from arching.
Good support for average-weight people.
Heavier stomach sleepers may need more support.
The WinkBeds Plus is moderately durable. It contains one layer of good-quality foam, which will help it resist sagging for longer than mattresses that only use lower-quality materials. However, its comfort layers contain lower-density, less durable foam, which may show signs of wear sooner.

Comfort layers include lower-quality foam.
The WinkBeds Plus's pressure relief performance varies depending on your weight. It offers the most pressure relief for people in the heavier weight category, who will sink into it enough for comfortable side sleeping. However, its relatively firm comfort layers offer much less pressure relief for average-weight and especially lighter people, who may want a softer mattress for side sleeping. That said, it contours around you closely, so more of your body is in contact with the sleeping surface, which helps with pressure relief.
Adequate body conformity for average-weight people.
Great body conformity for heavier people.
Highly contouring sleeping surface.
Poor body conformity for lighter people.
The WinkBed Plus is most supportive for lighter and average-weight people, but is fairly supportive for people in the heavier weight category as well. Its solid support makes it a good option for lighter and average-weight back and stomach sleepers. It's not as supportive for heavier people, but it does an adequate job of keeping your hips in line with the rest of your body. While stomach sleepers in that weight category may need more support, it's a good option for back or side sleep.
Adequate support for heavier people.
Good support for average-weight people.
Great support for lighter people.
Heavier stomach sleepers may need more support.
The WinkBeds Plus has a good cooling performance. It dissipates heat efficiently enough to keep most people comfortable. However, if you're a hot sleeper, you may want a cooling mattress. In particular, it feels warmer when you first get into bed, so if feeling overheated often keeps you awake, it's not ideal.
Cooling enough for most people.
Not quite cooling enough for hot sleepers.
The WinkBeds Plus has decent motion dissipation. The mattress doesn't bounce or wobble with movement, and it does a fantastic job of keeping motion isolated, so movements are only felt near the source. However, you will feel most movements near where they originate, even smaller ones, and bigger movements will be very noticeable.
Motion dissipates quickly.
Motion doesn't travel across the mattress.
You'll feel most movements near the source.
The WinkBeds Plus is a very responsive mattress. The comfort layers respond quickly when you move, which helps support your movements and avoids making you feel stuck in place. It's also a bouncy mattress, which makes it feel easier to change sleeping positions.
High responsiveness makes it feel easy to change sleeping positions.

Popular Mattress Comparisons
The WinkBeds Plus is a firm hybrid mattress. It's marketed as a supportive, durable option for heavier individuals and does provide adequate support for people in that weight range. However, it doesn't stand out in that respect, and some other firm mattresses like the Saatva Latex Hybrid or the Sleep On Latex Pure Green Organic offer better support for heavier back/stomach sleepers. It has sturdy edges and good cooling, but its motion dissipation is just decent. If you want a mattress that will help you sleep peacefully with a partner, many hybrid models offer a better performance, such as the Purple RestorePlus Hybrid or the Casper Snow.
If you want to know what we recommend, check out our picks for the best mattresses for heavy people, the best firm mattresses, and the best cooling mattresses.
The Saatva Latex Hybrid is better than the WinkBeds Plus for most people. The Saatva offers slightly better support for lighter and heavier people, and better body conformity for most side sleepers. It has better motion dissipation, better cooling, and uses higher-quality comfort materials.
The WinkBeds Plus and WinkBeds The WinkBed (Luxury Firm) are variants of the WinkBed with and have different strengths. The Plus is more supportive, making it a better option for back and stomach sleeping. On the other hand, heavier side sleepers and lighter back or stomach sleepers might prefer the Luxury Firm WinkBed because of its better cooling and motion dissipation.
You might prefer either the Sleep On Latex Pure Green Organic or the WinkBeds Plus. The Sleep On Latex is a very firm mattress that offers better support for average-weight and heavier people, so it's a better option for back/stomach sleeping. It's better for hot sleepers and uses more durable materials. The WinkBed's softer comfort layers make it more suitable for side sleeping, and you might prefer its slightly plusher feel.
You might prefer either the Casper Snow or the WinkBeds Plus. The Casper offers better cooling and motion dissipation, as well as a balance of support and pressure relief, making it a better option for many side sleepers. Its better support also makes it more suitable for heavier back and stomach sleepers. However, it has a very enveloping feel, which you may find constricting if you don't like to sink into your mattress that much. The WinkBeds is a bit more durable, and it's a good option for heavier side sleepers and average-weight back/stomach sleepers who prefer a firmer, more responsive mattress.
