I first introduced the Allswell Rectangle Curved Pet Bed to my family’s two mini Aussie pups, Lilly and Cooper, about one year ago. Lilly, being the baby, assumed her rightful place in the center of the bed immediately, crashed for a solid two hours, and emerged without her typical restlessness, moodiness, and attention-seeking behaviors. As it turned out, she needed a place of her own and a really, really good nap. Of course, Cooper developed a jealous habit of whining nearby every time Lilly would retreat to her Allswell bed. So, my parents did something they hadn’t yet done with any of the products I’ve tested in their home over the years…they bought another.

The slightly concave curve of its frame encourages lounging pups to gravitate toward the bed’s center and gives their head and neck just enough elevation and support. The side bolsters are crafted from a chipped memory foam fill that gives a little extra buoyancy and is especially comfortable for your resting dog’s head (or yours…). Soft, plush, supportive, and attractive… Allswell delivers it all with this pet bed. Looking for something a little different? They also have a new rounded style for just $28!

I have been recently binge watching episodes of “International House Hunters,” and it’s so funny to me how anyone viewing an apartment in an Asian city always comments on just how firm the bed is. I grew up in India, and I can confirm that mattresses are indeed a lot firmer on the other side of the world. Anything with even a smidge of bounce is immediately deemed European-style bedding and meant to be enjoyed during vacations at fancy hotels. When it comes to picking an everyday mattress, super firm top layers is the way to go! Add to that the fact that most Indian beds don’t even have slats — it’s usually a firm mattress atop a solid plank of wood.

So you can imagine my surprise when I moved to the United States and could only find slatted frames and mattresses marketed as “firm” that by Indian standards would be deemed too soft. And before you think I’m being fussy, let me tell you, it’s not just me! In fact, discussing mattress brands and sleep solutions is often a favorite topic among my Indian friends who live abroad. So after years of testing out a slew of different solutions (everything from various mattress toppers to adding a plywood plank on top of my slats!), I had all but given up on a good night’s rest. And then I discovered The Brick.
This hybrid mattress from Allswell is the brand’s most firm launch yet, and the proof is in its solid construction. For starters, the mattress contains individually wrapped coils that help to minimize motion transfer and enhance spine support. The coils are further topped with a two-inch layer of high-density foam, providing even more added support. On top of that layer is an additional one-inch layer of memory foam, which helps circulation and keeps you cool throughout the night. And finally, that’s topped with a firm top layer for, yup, added support. Translation: This is a concrete block!
But despite this level of firmness, The Brick isn’t uncomfortable by a long shot. Unlike many other mattresses I have tried, The Brick holds my body instead of collapsing against its weight, and it makes my lower back, shoulders, and neck feel supported, especially after a long day of sitting on a chair typing away at my computer.
While The Brick is definitely on the firmer side of medium-firm, thanks to its supportive memory foam layer, it does have a curve-conforming cushioning. And if you’re a back sleeper or stomach sleeper you’ll definitely appreciate the extra thickness and pressure-relieving, firm feel. But most importantly I share a bed with a restless sleeper, and the firmness of the mattress makes me immune to any tosses or turns.
Best of all, The Brick is normally priced at $699 for a Queen and $875 for a California King, but right now it’s 20 percent off as part of Allswell’s Labor Day sale. With the code LABORDAY20, you can take advantage of this deal. That’s an incredible value for a mattress so thoughtfully designed. And if you’re still debating if this level of firmness is right for you, Allswell offers free shipping, a 100-night trial period, and a 10-year warranty for peace of mind. As for me? I’m finally enjoying eight hours of uninterrupted sleep without feeling like I’m sinking deep into my mattress. So I’m giving The Brick a firm thumbs up.

To me, a great bath towel has always meant one that’s thick, fluffy, heavy, and plush — but I’m not sure I can really tell you why. Dense towels sometimes aren’t even as effective at drying you off, and they often take a while to air dry themselves. They require painstaking care in the laundry department in general if you’re hoping to keep them fluffy and soft and free of weird smells for years to come. And if you have limited storage in your home like I do, thick, poofy towels take up way too much space.
As it turns out, what I’ve always wanted was a sumptuously soft towel that was still a towel, not a blanket. After testing a number of waffle knits over the past few months, this one from editor-loved mattress brand Allswell took me by surprise and blew the rest right out of the (bath) water. Not only do the Stonewashed Waffle Towels look beautiful draped over the bath tub and towel rack, but their design is actually quite practical. The grooves of the towel’s waffle weave allow it to absorb water like a sponge, so there’s no need to rub yourself with it to dry off — a light pat will do. And because of Allswell’s stone washing process, the towel is also unbelievably soft and will only get more so over time with use and washes.
They’re available in the full range of sizes, from washcloths to bath sheets, and in three colors including a crisp, bright white that’s easy to care for and will elevate the decor of any bathroom, be it minimalist or eclectic. And because these towels (along with everything else Allswell) are 20 percent off right now ahead of Presidents Day, now’s the best time to level up your bath towel game. Just use code PREZ20 at checkout!
Not only have I discovered that I love waffle knit towels, but I might even prefer a good waffle knit to the classic soft and fluffy styles that I’ve used for so long. And since these stonewashed Allswell ones are quick drying, easily machine washable, and good-looking, I plan to stock up on the whole collection — slippers and robe included — before the sale is through.

I adore my cats. I can sit at my computer after a sleepless night with a lengthy to-do list, and my sweet Charlotte will prance right over to my desk, sit quietly in my lap, and close her gorgeous green eyes. In that moment, it reminds me that everything will, in fact, be okay. After Zelda, my spunky little tuxedo kitten, realizes that Charlotte has secured prime lap real estate, it doesn’t take long for that spot to become a shared space. We adopted Zelda a few months ago, and she follows Charlotte everywhere. Once settled, she’ll cross her tiny white paws, resting them as close to her older sister as possible and happily taking up her share of space.
No matter if you’re a cat or dog person, know that our beloved animals deserve the best when it comes to sleep. Charlotte and Zelda will soon outgrow their naptime nest, which is why I was over the moon to learn that Allswell, the cult-favorite mattress brand that AT’s editors have been praising for years, is expanding its product offerings with two new pet beds designed to send our four-legged friends into a peaceful, dream-like state. Designed with the same high-quality materials as the rest of Allswell’s restful repertoire, these new pet beds have thoughtful, functional features, like machine-washable tops that make midnight accidents or unexpected hairballs a breeze to clean up … finally.
I like both beds for different reasons. The Premium Rectangle Curved Pet Bed offers curved bolsters and micro-plush fill to cradle a medium-sized canine, like a beagle or cocker spaniel. At 36 inches long and 27 inches wide, this pet bed is also perfect for a small new puppy who’s expected to grow in size or a larger cat who likes to sprawl out. This snooze spot comes in a two-toned neutral color palette with tasteful piping, so you don’t have to worry about hiding it in the closet before your next dinner party.
Just like its rectangular counterpart, Allswell’s Premium Round Pet Bed features a cozy and comfortable construction, but its circular, donut shape comes with a faux shag top that adds texture. Its 23-inch diameter is the perfect size for a small dog or cat.
Still waiting to press the checkout button? Don’t keep yourself on a tight leash: Allswell’s currently offering 20 percent off everything on its site with code THANKFUL, so you can save even more on these incredible pet beds until November 23rd.
