My name is Robert, I’m am a size XXXL and the one behind the keyboard of BestforBigandHeavy.com
Growing up in a family that served the community I have always been extremely sensitive to people whose needs aren’t being met.
Life’s hardships have made me more aware of those who may lead lives that are difficult and uncomfortable, due to no fault of their own. When I was in my early 30’s I realized there was a huge group of people in our society whose needs aren’t recognized by the majority of companies who produce lifestyle products, fashion, and furniture – the 30+% of American adults who are considered “overweight.”
Every time I start researching a product or information to help someone overweight outfit their house or get items they need to improve their comfort or well-being, I was met with the same propaganda, “LOSE WEIGHT! HERE’S HOW TO DO IT!”
It is as if people are uncomfortable with other humans who are heavy and don’t want to make products for them, giving them “permission” to be fat. Well, since when did a person have to be skinny to live a comfortable and enjoyable life?
Whether or not a person is happy in their current skin, we are of the opinion that everyone deserves to have what they need to be comfortable and happy NOW. Not at some future date, and not after achieving a milestone. So I set out to build this site and community with one view: find and test the best products available for large and heavy people.
BestforBigandHeavy.com is a quality assured review site, where you can trust me in the recommendations I put out. I want to make it clear that all of the recommendations in our editorial content are based on my informed research. Affiliate partners cannot pay me for preferential placements or product reviews.
