PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Review: General Overview
The PlushBeds MobilePlush mattress is a memory foam mattress that’s certified by both CertiPUR-US and GreenGuard Gold. According to PlushBeds, it’s a patented and premium memory foam mattress designed to provide support, relieve pressure and, notably, keep you cooler out on the road.
Let’s take a look at the mattress’s pros and cons.
Pros of the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress
- It offers a good balance of comfort and support for average-weight and lightweight back sleepers.
- It’s a good pick for fans of a balanced foam feel.
- At only six inches in height, it’s a thin mattress and comes in RV-specific sizes, so it should fit most RVs.
Cons of the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress
- While it is a memory foam mattress, it doesn’t have a traditional memory foam feel.
- It’s likely too thin to provide enough support for folks who weigh more than 230 lbs.
- Stomach sleepers who weigh over 130 lbs will probably need a firmer mattress, as this doesn’t have sufficient support to keep their hips elevated.
PlushBeds MobilePlush Firmness and Feel
Since firmness and feel directly affect comfort, here’s what to know about how it feels to sleep on the PlushBeds MobilePlush mattress.
How Firm is the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress?
This is a noticeably firm mattress. On our firmness scale, with 1 being the softest, I rated the MobilePlush a 7/10. That’s slightly firmer than what we’d consider medium-firm.
Sleeping on the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress
Back sleepers, excluding those who weigh more than 230 lbs, will likely find this mattress to be a good fit. But it lacks the support heavier sleepers need to avoid dipping too deeply into the mattress.
Sleeping on my side, I found myself pressing in too far, leading to pressure on my hips and shoulders. When I rolled onto my stomach, the mattress simply wasn’t firm enough to properly elevate my hips. At 270 pounds, I compress the mattress more than lightweight and average-weight sleepers, but the PlushBeds likely won’t be supportive enough for all but the lightest of stomach sleepers.
What Does the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Feel Like?
For a memory foam mattress, the MobilePlush has a balanced foam feel. You sink in a bit, but it’s responsive enough to move around and change positions easily.
Sleeper Weight | Back Sleepers | Side Sleepers | Stomach Sleepers |
Lightweight (under 130 lbs) | Good | Good | Good |
Average (130-230 lbs) | Fair | Poor | Poor |
Heavyweight (over 230 lbs) | Poor | Poor | Poor |
Is the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Good For Lightweight Sleepers (Under 130 lbs)?
- Lightweight back sleepers should get enough support.
- Side sleepers in this weight range should also get the pressure relief they need.
- Very light stomach sleepers will likely find this mattress supportive.
Is the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Good For Average-Weight Sleepers (130-230 lbs)?
- This mattress is a decent match for average-weight back sleepers.
- Side sleepers in this weight range will probably bottom out, leading to pressure on the hips and shoulders.
- Stomach sleepers likely won’t get enough support.
Is the PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Good For Heavyweight Sleepers (Over 230 lbs)?
- Heavyweight back sleepers shouldn’t expect to get enough support and should consider a hybrid or innerspring mattress.
- Heavyweight side sleepers will probably bottom out, just like average-weight sleepers.
- Stomach sleepers above 230 lbs will likely find that they sink too far into the mattress and could feel some back pain after sleeping on this mattress.

PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Construction
Wondering what exactly goes into an RV mattress? Here’s a breakdown of the MobilePlush mattress.
Cover
The MobilePlush mattress has a deluxe stretch knit cover.
Comfort Layers
This mattress is made with open-cell, high-density memory foam. This type of foam contains lots of small airways for heat to move away from your body rather than getting trapped in the mattress. Its foam is designed to be durable and hypoallergenic as well.
Support Layers
While many mattresses feature layers of materials for both comfort and support, the MobilePlush is a single layer of memory foam designed to be both supportive and cushioning.
Mattress Height
As an RV mattress, the MobilePlush is only 6” tall.
PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Size Options and Price

Size | Dimensions | Price |

King | 72″ x 80″ | $989.00 |
PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Performance
To see how the MobilePlush mattress performs, I tested features such as temperature regulation, motion transfer, edge support, and more.
Sleeping Hot or Cold
For an all-foam bed, I found that this mattress sleeps quite cool. That’s thanks to the open-celled foam and Multiphase Transition Range technology, which help channel heat away from the body instead of letting it build up during the night.
Motion Transfer
I saw very little motion transfer on this mattress. Memory foam typically does a great job of isolating motion, and this mattress is no exception. This makes it a good option for couples looking for a bed that can help dampen any nighttime disturbances from their partner’s movement.
Edge Support
Memory foam tends to lack edge support, so it was no surprise the MobilePlush mattress has very poor edge support. It collapsed completely when I sat near the edge. That’s an important consideration for anyone with mobility issues or couples who share a bed and need to maximize sleep space.
Durability
Although the MobilePlush is made of high-density foam, it’s still a thin all-foam bed. This tends to mean a relatively limited lifespan. It should last for at least 7 years with regular use, but I don’t expect it to last as long as other bed-in-a-box mattresses. If you’re only sleeping on the mattress when you take the occasional RV trip, though, I wouldn’t expect it to wear out as quickly.
Off-gassing
Off-gassing isn’t uncommon with boxed foam mattresses. There was a bit of a chemical smell when I unboxed the MobilePlush mattress, but it went away after a few days.
Noise
The MobilePlush mattress made no noise at all. Since it lacks coils, it never should.
Sex
The balanced foam feel should make this a decent mattress for sex. But because it lacks a coil layer, it’s not comparable to a hybrid or innerspring, which tend to be much easier for sexual partners to move around on.
PlushBeds MobilePlush Company Policies
It’s always helpful to understand company policies relating to warranties, sleep trials, and returns. Here’s what PlushBeds offers on its MobilePlush mattress.
Warranty
The mattress has a 20-year warranty.
Sleep Trial
PlushBeds offers a 100-night sleep trial on its MobilePlush mattress.
Return Policy
If you decide the mattress isn’t a good fit, you can return it after the first 30 days of your sleep trial and before it concludes for a full refund minus a $149 transportation fee. This fee covers a concierge mattress removal service. If you prefer to return the mattress using your own shipping service, PlushBeds will waive the $149 fee.
Note that custom orders cannot be returned.
Common PlushBeds MobilePlush Mattress Complaints
While the MobilePlush mattress has a number of great reviews, there were also a few complaints. Some customers experienced premature sagging with their MobilePlush mattress, while others experienced delivery issues.
How Does The PlushBeds MobilePlush Compare To Others
If you’re researching mattresses for your RV or camper, here’s how the MobilePlush compares to other brands and models on the market.
PlushBeds MobilePlush vs Dreamfoam Essential RV Mattress
The Dreamfoam Essential RV is an all-foam bed that is available in multiple heights and firmnesses, while the PlushBeds MobilePlush only comes in one height and comfort level. At a 7/10 on our firmness scale, it’s a bit firmer than medium-firm. If you prefer to choose a different firmness, you’ll have more options with the Dreamfoam.
The 6” model of the Dreamfoam is also more affordable than the MobilePlush.
Who Should Get PlushBeds MobilePlush | Who Should Get Dreamfoam Essential RV |

The PlushBeds MobilePlush is thinner and able to fit in tighter RV spaces. It is also more affordable.

PlushBeds MobilePlush FAQs
Is the PlushBeds MobilePlush a good mattress?
The PlushBeds MobilePlush is a good mattress, but it’s going to work better for back sleepers who weigh less than 230 lbs, fans of a balanced foam feel, and those who need a thinner mattress for their RV. People who weigh more than 230 lbs and those who like a memory foam feel should probably look elsewhere.

Thanks to its high-density foam, I expect the MobilePlush to last for at least 7 years.
Are PlushBeds mattresses good for your back?
Yes, a number of the PlushBeds mattresses will work for back sleeping. If you need something for your RV, the MobilePlush will be a good choice for back sleepers who weigh less than 230 lbs.
