The best furniture for big and heavy people. We test mattresses, recliners, dining chairs, toilet seats, and anything we can get out hands on!
Whenever anyone asks me for a product recommendation, I tell them to buy a product meant specifically for big and heavy people. Why? Because they are typically overbuilt and use much higher quality materials than the average item. Heavy duty bar stools are no different. Whether you heavy or not, getting bar stools that support … Read more
There’s nothing quite like sitting on a friend’s couch….and breaking it. Not that I’ve ever had that experience. It was a work couch that I broke… As a big guy, I’ve always been hyperaware of where I sit. Not only is it draining to stand for long periods of time, I have fewer options of … Read more
Let’s speak frankly, we fat people spend a lot more time either sitting in chairs or looking for chairs to sit in than the average person. Which makes me wonder, why is a comfortable chair for a fat person so hard to find?! I can understand why malls or restaurants don’t have chairs that fit … Read more
When my wife and I were first married we spent way way too much money on a mattress. While an $800 mattress isn’t at all expensive in the world of premium mattresses, it was a large investment for us. If the mattress was amazing, I would have not regrets…but it wasn’t. The reason that I … Read more

By the time I graduated from high school, I was 6’2″ and weighed around 200 pounds. My mom had long since given up on buying me kid or teen items (thankfully) and had been buying me men’s clothes since middle school. So when it came to beds, things were no different. I wasn’t too old … Read more

When I was younger and far more innocent, I had no idea that anything like a heavy-duty gaming chair existed. I sat on our old spinning computer chair with paper-thin padding in our living room until my butt went numb. It usually took about 15 minutes. My “computer time” in those days was a max … Read more
