Will this mattress be support a big guy? My son weighs 280+ and is 6'6'. I planned on purchasing the full sized mattress for his bed. By the way, I was looking at getting the 10-inch.

I am only 5'9, but I weigh 250 lbs. So height to weight ratio I am probably bigger than your son. So far it supports me just fine. It has softened a bit since we started using it in august, but it was very firm to start.

The mattress would support him, however the full mattress is only 75 inches long and being your son is 78 inches tall, that would be a tight squeeze. I would recommend at least the queen size which is not much more, as well you will need to get a very good foundation to support the mattress, and yes go with the 10". Mattress Mattress (if they are in your area) sell foundations (not the same as old box springs). Hope this helps

The 10'' is denser and should support. But it is memory foam after all. Perhaps stronger springs is what is needed for that weight. Does a 6'6'' person fit on a queen or king lengthwise?

Yes, it will. My brother is about the same size (6'4" 290) and it supports him very well. He has the queen size though.

Not for every day use! Unless you are a child or weigh 65 pounds. It is comfortable enough to sleep on for a few nights. I would recommend the 6 inch mattress if you intend to use it for your long term bed. I own both and when we have family over I sleep on the 6 inch one for about a week or so.

I'm right there, and for the two weeks I used it, it was just fine. Having a background in foam rubber products, I can say the mattress is a good one for heftier people. As long as you don't double up, you should be fine.

Not exactly sure how to answer your question....But I'm a pretty heavy guy and I haven't had any issues with the mattress. The only thing I can say is make sure you have a tight box spring so that the memory foam doesn't sink into the box. I really enjoy this mattress a lot.

I'm 6'2" @ 265; it's worked fine for me. Check the weight rating on the product - it should state the max load (I don't remember what it was exactly).

The mattress would definitely work for you, the frame though may not I'm about 200lbs and it creeks a little when I move. I definitely wouldn't jump on to the bed lol. I'm not thrilled with how the frame was made it doesn't have a whole lot of support bars like I thought it did. I will say that I've had 2 kids on the bed at one time with me and it hasn't broken, one was 150lbs and the other 100lbs. So it may be okay. You can find other frames on here for pretty cheap. Or you can check sleepys and when they have a sale buy a frame. The have really good deals. This mattress is wonderful though so its worth buying it for just this part.

Im perfectly content with the 6" mattress myself. Many a nights it is slept on actually. So I guess if you want it extra chushy then maybe get the pad too, but I think the mattress is very comfortable.

I chose the 13" gel because I like a softer mattress & the rating was softer than the thinner mattresses. It has worked out excellent. I am a big guy (6'2' & 345 lbs) & it feels like I'm suspended in a cloud. I don't ever feel like I'm bottoming out, even when I'm sitting. My wife is small (5'7" & about 125 lbs) & she loves it too. It's a perfect fit for us, as we both like softer mattresses. If you also prefer softer ones, I'd recommend the 13", especially if you have a larger family member. If you prefer a firmer mattress, you might want to consider one of the thinner ones. The gel foam is cool, by the way. I tend to get hot at night & this mattress is at least as cool as, if not cooler, than my previous air-adjustable mattress. Much more comfortable too. Wish I'd gotten this years ago. Hope this helps!! Goodnight!!!

Im 6 foot 275lbs and I sure do appreciate the help when moving around this 12" mattress. Dont hurt yourselves. If you have to ask you probably need help!

Is your mattress the correct size for this product? I use mine on his full size bed and don't have any issues with it. Make sure the product was put together correctly and if that doesn't work, return the product.

I suggest you buy the larger, wider model. My husband weighed 230 lb. and has had no problem.

I am 6ft4in 210lbs and it supports me very well. I love it. I use it almost every other day. Definitely will take your height. The weight capacity should be good for almost any weight I would assume. It's well balanced. I do dips with added weight of 25lb usually. Hope that helps.

My wife and I together weigh 325 lbs, and it seemed just fine, in an initial 'tryout'. This is the third AeroBed I have owned over the years, and at one point in my life I weighed 270, and it was ok, but in time a slow leak developed in the 'pump' location. I prefer a firm feel, and I may have over-inflated the mattress! If you have any 'heft' at all, I think you made a good choice with Aerobed.

If your grandson is 6'1'' I doubt seriously that he would be happy. If he weighs much more than a 100 pounds the bed does not offer good support. I am not happy with my purchase. I had hoped I could use it for my adult grandchildren---only the girl that is a little over 100 pounds and is 5'4'' will sleep on it.

I've had this mattress for 13 months. I also bought one for my daughter at the same time. They've both held up beautifully. Just like any other mattress...might be sturdier even. I don't know if it would make a difference on size and weight...my teenage daughter and I are both 5'7" and 140 lbs.

I bought a queen for my full size mattress and it was way too big. I would say stick with the queen.

I have had a queen size for three years and I weigh 280. So far, no problems. It is very well mades and sturdy.
