The Allswell mattress is designed to be a medium on the firmness scale. This feel is often marketed as a universal comfort option. It should appeal to most, but not all firmness preferences. No two people interpret comfort the same way due to a variety of factors.
Pressing into the Allswell Mattress
Body Mass Index (BMI) ratios affect comfort and support levels. The Allswell is a smaller profile mattress. Larger individuals will be absorbed into this bed more than someone with a lower BMI score. This results in a softer feel than how a lighter body type will perceive it. Age, physical condition and personal preference also play a role in determining the best feel for you. Those with greater pressure sensitivities from injuries, arthritis or fibromyalgia, may prefer a mattress with more body hug than what this mattress offers.
Sleep position is also a key factor in determining comfort. Here is what our trial revealed:
On your back…
Even on your back, your body is not flat. We noticed a sufficient amount of contouring to conform to the spine while maintaining adequate support for average body types. That said, structure may be lacking for larger individuals. Overall, we found this mattress to be quite comfortable on our backs.
On your side…
We noticed a surprising amount of pressure relief while on our sides. Lower profile mattresses sometimes have a hard time delivering a softer feel while maintaining support. Allswell has done a nice job of providing the best of both qualities. The amount of contouring should be more than adequate for most. However, those with extreme pressure sensitivities may require more body hug than this mattress offers. What you will get is a medium comfort feel that should be soft enough for the majority of side sleepers.
On your stomach…
Unlike side sleepers, stomach sleepers require a bit more firmness. This mattress has that not too firm but, not too soft feel that should keep most stomach sleepers happy. While the firmness level should not be a problem, an individual with a higher BMI might sink a bit too much and potentially cause lower back pain.

Pros:
- Decent support: This mattress offers support that exceeds expectations

Cons:

The Allswell Unboxing and Setup
Weighing under 80 lbs, the Allswell mattress was relatively easy to bring into the home compared to some much heavier beds we’ve reviewed. Remember, white glove in-home delivery and set up service is available if desired.
Once in the room it will be slept in, remove your mattress from its box. Place it on its platform prior to unwrapping. Cut through the first layer of plastic being careful not to damage the fabric topper during this process. Your mattress will now begin to expand and take shape quickly. You can lay on your mattress within minute although full expansion may take a few hours.
