Frequently Asked Questions

How firm is the Plank Firm mattress by Brooklyn Bedding?

On a scale of 1 to 10, the firm side of the Plank Firm mattress ranges between 7.5-9. This ranking is slightly above a traditional firm mattress. The ultra-firm side ranges between 9.5-10.5 — meaning it’s the firmest, flattest sleep surface on the market. To put that in perspective, next level firmness could only be achieved by sleeping directly on the floor with no pressure point relief.

Is it possible to make the Plank Firm mattress by Brooklyn Bedding firmer?

The flippable design of the Plank Firm mattress allows you to choose your ideal firmness level. A .75” quilted top layer, patterned with continuous stitching, ensures zero loft for an ultra-firm sleep experience. Or, flip the mattress, and a .75” quilted layer, patterned with tack-and-jump stitching, creates minimal loft for a firm sleep experience. Next level firmness can be achieved by eliminating the mattress altogether and sleeping directly on the floor. You will, however, lose some of the pressure point relief that comes with sleeping on an actual mattress.

What differentiates the Plank Firm from the Plank Firm Luxe by Brooklyn Bedding?

The Plank Firm by Brooklyn Bedding is an all-foam mattress—and the firmest sleep experience on the market. (Next level firmness could only be achieved by eliminating the mattress altogether and sleeping directly on the floor.) Meanwhile, the Plank Firm Luxe by Brooklyn Bedding is constructed with added foam layers and individually encased coils to deliver greater pressure point relief and responsiveness. Both mattresses are flippable, which allows you to choose between a firm and extra-firm side. Many customers with a sleep partner do opt for the Plank Firm Luxe to ensure a more comfortable sleep experience for both individuals.

What cooling features are available in the Plank Firm mattress?

The Plank Firm features a breathable quilted top on either side of the mattress, coupled with open cell technology throughout the foam layers, to help ensure a neutral temperature environment.

For even greater temperature moderation, a GlacioTex™ Cooling Cover can be sewn into the Plank Firm mattress as an optional feature—just look for the “ADD GLACIOTEX™ COOLING COVER” option on the right side of the product page when making your selection. Once you add this feature to your mattress, the cooling top panel will be sewn into the surface of the mattress to deliver ultimate cooling on contact.

The GlacioTex™ Cooling Cover is an optional feature that does not impact the comfort, firmness level, or support of the Plank Firm mattress.

What is the height of the Plank Firm mattress by Brooklyn Bedding?

The height of the Plank Firm mattress is 10”.

What type of foundation works best for this mattress?

Brooklyn Bedding mattresses are designed to be used on foundations with solid support with minimal to no flex. This includes slatted wood or metal foundations with slats no more than 4" apart, wood or metal box foundations, and solid wood or metal platforms.

Are your mattresses flippable?

The Plank Firm and Plank Firm Luxe mattresses are designed with varying firmness levels on either side of the mattress and can be flipped to customize your sleep experience.

Where is this product made?

Brooklyn Bedding mattresses are made in America using foreign and domestic components.

Does the Plank Firm have any safety certifications?

Every Brooklyn Bedding mattress is assembled in the Arizona facility, ensuring the highest quality every single time. Brooklyn Bedding mattresses are GREENGUARD Gold Certified and made with CertiPUR-US certified foams, which guarantees they are made without any harmful chemicals including ozone depleters, PBDE flame retardants, mercury, lead, heavy metals, formaldehyde, and have extremely low impact on indoor air quality.

Reviews

Bed of beds

"I actually cant believe how nice this matress is. Its so solid with the teeniest bit of give for a comfortable lay. I dont even use pillows anymore most times. I will never use memory foam again. They have absolutely wrecked my back. We will slowly start to bring Plank matress into the rest of the rooms of the house. I took advantage of the spring deal. Should have bought all three rooms one. If you like firm this is the one."

Edward S. (5/5)

Highly recommended

"I recently purchased the Queen size Plank mattress when deciding to upgrade to a larger bed. This is my second Plank mattress and it's as amazing as the first one I purchased (which is still in excellent condition - no sagging or breakdown after using it for 5 years. ) I like a firmer mattress, and this one is the perfect amount of firm support. Shipping was quick - it arrived in about a week, which coincided well with when the bed frame arrived. I can't recommend Plank enough."

Siegfried S. (5/5)

firm at first

"The mattress felt firm at first, but after only a month, it has already begun to feel softer in the middle. The center no longer provides the kind of support I was seeking, and I find myself inching closer to the edges just to stay comfortable. This kind of premature softening is concerning and not what I expected from a firm mattress."

remy p. (3/5)

Great mattress

"Had our mattress now 3 weeks and it is very comfortable for my husband and I. The firmness is perfect for his back and as a stomach/side sleeper it is also comfortable for me. We did pay extra for the cooling mattress protecter which actually does feel nice as we approach summer. Setup was fine (came vacuum sealed all rolled up) and we opened it on the bed frame. We did let it sit for a day before we slept on it."

Nicole O. (5/5)

Great mattress

"I bought this mattress for my husband due to his chronic back pain. He absolutely loves it and we are plank customers for life. His back pain is so much better and he is much more energized. Highly recommend this mattress."

Hannah T. (5/5)

It's firm, I love it. I just wonder how long it's gonna stay firm. You know, one year, two year, three year. That's the question I'll get back with you then

"I love my bed so far. I need something that's really firm. And this definitely checks that box. I'd recommend getting this bad if you're kneading a firm bad now I just need to know how long it's gonna hold up. Then I'll really have a review"

Larry S. (5/5)

Would buy it again

"Love it! This is the third Plank mattress that I bought. The first we bought for my brother-in-law who has a bad back, he says his back feels much better now. We bought one for my son because it has two sides (firm and less firm) so you get a choice of firmness plus twice the use, just flip it over when one side starts to wear out. He uses a foam topper to make it extra comfy. Now we bought this third Plank mattress for us. I like that you can order it online and it gets delivered compressed in a box (easy to get thru a doorway). In compressed state, we were able to set it off to the side until we were ready to use it, then when you unroll it, it re-inflates to full size - convenient! All three of us use a tall metal frame with horizontal support slats - no need for box spring"

Valerie K. (5/5)

solid mattress

"we got it on sale which was nice! shipped pretty quickly. easy to setup. no major complaints. i wish it sunk less on the edges so i can sit on the edge of the bed without feeling too unstable"

Samantha I. (4/5)

Great. . . very happy. I needed a

"Great. . . very happy. I needed a mattress that had firm sides and corners so that I could enter and exit without falling and yet didn't feel like I was sleeping on a piece of plywood. The Firm Plank model on its "softer" side has fulfilled my safety and comfort needs. . . and I'm primarily a "side" sleeper. (Mike)"

Michael D. (5/5)

LOVE this Plank mattress!!

"I am EXTREMELY happy I decided to buy this mattress! I haven’t bought a mattress for several years and love a firm mattress, so I gave Plank a try. They deliver exactly what they say, a very firm and comfortable mattress that has changed the quality of my sleep in a fantastic way! I HIGHLY recommend this mattress to all firm/extra firm mattress fans."

What type of foam (polyfoam, memory foam or latex?) and what are density specifications?

How long can a plank mattress be stored tightly wrapped before it must be opened up and finally used (after it’s shipped)?
Hi Pat, We recommend not letting your mattress sit in the packaging longer than 120 days. Thank you
Since its made of foam, How firm is the mattress ? I prefer same like rock or floor? Is it that firm?
Hi Jahnavi, The Plank mattress is made as firm as we can possibly make a mattress that is not made of flooring. Thank you
Besides firm & extra what levels would be considered just a little less as firm but by no means plush or soft
Hi Brenn, If you are looking for something slightly less firm than the Plank mattress, please check out the Titan mattress https://titanmattress.com/products/titan?variant=17225382592602 Thank you!
Can both sides be an 8 on firmness scale rather than 8 and 10?
Unfortunately, we cannot customize the Plank mattress.
