Plank Review
Why Shop the Plank Mattress:
If you love the feel of an ultra-firm mattress, your options are either limited or pricey—until now. Plank offers you a choice between their All-Foam and Luxe Hybrid mattress models at an affordable price. And not only that, but both models are flippable; one side is a medium firmness and the other side is ultra firm.
Anyone who has visited places like Japan and other countries in the Far East knows that firm mats placed on the floor are the preferred sleep surface in that region. Plank offers that level of firmness while incorporating a more modern American design—all while being durable and affordable.
Back and stomach sleepers do best on a firm mattress. However, some all-position sleepers opt for a firm mattress for the health benefits since the firmness level allows hips to stay in horizontal alignment.
Decide Between the Plank’s Two Select Models:
You may have heard of choice comfort. The Plank offers both choice comfort and choice firmness. With a simple flip of the mattress, you can choose between ultra firm or medium firm, and with a simple online order you can select between the All-Foam and Luxe Hybrid.
And both models are firm but never hard. The top layer is a quilted surface with a low loft to maintain the mattress’s firm feel while providing comfort and some pressure point relief.
However, the main foam layer is this mattress’s winning feature. Both models feature the speciality foam Energex™, i.e., the foam that bounces. Engineered to act as a visco foam alternative, Energex™ provides a spring effect and quick response design—while offering unparalleled pressure point relief.
All-Foam Plank
The All-Foam mattress is a flippable foam mattress that sports a firm sleep surface on one side and an ultra firm sleep surface on the other. The quilted top layer gives comfort with minimal loft to preserve the firm surface.
The mattress’s main foam layer Energex™ provides bounce and quick response. Both high density foam layers are durable and stable, creating great pressure point relief and edge support.
Please note: Of the two Plank mattress models, the All Foam is the most firm option.
Luxe Hybrid Plank
The Luxe Hybrid mattress is similar to the All-Foam—but with the addition of premium individually wrapped steel coils that give the mattress more bounce and response and even more pressure point relief.
Additionally, the perimeter of these individually wrapped steel coils are made up of more tightly wound coils to offer advanced edge support.
The Benefits of Sleeping the Plank:
Does the Plank help with back pain?
Customer reviews are full of enthusiastic praise for this mattress’s ability to relieve bad pain. Unlike other mattresses, this bed keeps a sleeper’s spine in proper alignment, preventing any sagging that would end in tension and back pain.
You may have heard that sleeping on the floor is good for people with back pain—however Plank would rather you sleep on a more comfortable surface. That’s why Plank offers floor-firmness (or plank-firmness) but with some added low-loft quilted comfort.
Sleep Hot? Plank Will Keep You Cool
Both the All-Foam and the Luxe Hybrid are temperature neutral, meaning the foam layers allow your body’s heat to dissipate, instead of building up in the foam layers.
The open cell structure of the main foam layer Energex™ allows your body heat to escape from the foam layers. Your body heat escapes, and you sleep cool.
The Luxe Hybrid has the addition of a premium pocket coil system, meaning an even cooler sleep is possible since the bedsprings allow even more heat to escape.
In addition, you may select the optional cool-to-the-touch top panel with Phase Change Materials (PCM) for even greater cooling.
Does the Plank Sell at a Good Price?
The keyword to this answer is: factory-direct. The Plank mattresses are built in their own US factory, ensuring great quality control and then shipped directly to you, cutting out the middleman (i.e., saving you money!).
The factory also produces and manufactures their own premium individually wrapped coils and most of their high quality foams. Each mattress is made to order, roll packed, and then quickly shipped factory-direct to you via FedEx.
What Are Individually Wrapped Coils?
Also referred to as “pocketed coils,” the Plank Hybrid’s premium individually wrapped coils move separately from one another, offering great pressure point relief, edge support, and motion isolation.
Unlike older versions of bedsprings that move in unison, creating an ocean wave effect and disturbing your partner whenever you move, Plank isolates motion because the coils move separately from each other. In other words, the Plank Hybrid goes the extra mile while remaining affordable.
Wonderful Responsive Customer Service:
An online retailer needs great customer service—and the Plank offers quick support via email, live-chat, or phone. Many satisfied customers say the 120 night risk-free trial period makes buying a mattress a stress-free experience. They also offer a no-questions-asked return policy.
Trial period & Free Shipping Explained
Explain the 120 Night Risk-Free Trial?
The Plank offers a generous 120 night risk-free trial period that begins from the date of your mattress’s delivery. Customers must first complete a 30 day adjustment period in order to test out their new mattress. After that, you can initiate your refund.
Are Both Shipping and Returns Actually Free?
The Plank offers free shipping on all mattress orders to all contiguous states while also offering free shipping on exchanges and returns.
What is Bed-in-a-Box Delivery?
As with most online mattress companies, Plank offers a roll-packed mattress packed in a box (hence, bed-in-a-box delivery). This allows customers to quickly receive their mattress right at their front door and then easily transport the mattress to their bedroom to watch it expand.
Final Thoughts on Plank:
There’s never been a better time to buy Plank’s ultra firm mattress. The quality, durability, and price will leave you with both peace of mind and a great night’s sleep. If your too-soft mattress is leaving you with back pain, it’s time to sleep the Plank.
