Editor’s note, Nov. 8: The flagship Allswell mattress is currently out of stock as the company moves from selling online to selling exclusively at Walmart. We’ll update once we know when or if the mattress will be sold again.
Allswell was founded in 2017 when Walmart saw how popular affordable bed-in-a-box mattresses were becoming. Allswell offers quality mattresses and bedding products at budget-friendly prices. Hybrid mattresses tend to be more expensive because of their more durable and supportive constructions, but the Allswell mattress is the exception. It’s extremely affordable, plus it can accommodate a wide range of sleepers. This Allswell mattress review will reveal who those sleepers are and the types of people who will like it most.
I tested everything including firmness, feel, motion isolation and edge support. To learn how comfy the Allswell Hybrid really is and how well it performs, continue reading.
First impressions
Whenever I get the question, “What’s the best mattress I can buy that’s not expensive?” Allswell remains in the top couple of spots as a widely appealing option. Compared to similar hybrid mattresses in the market, the price and quality are seriously hard to beat. I was expecting some rinky-dink thin, hybrid mattress, but that’s certainly not the case here.
It’s just a clean, basic hybrid mattress with no bells and whistles. But, if you’re on a budget or want to skip all the hoopla, that’s going to be perfectly fine with you. To me, it feels bouncy like an innerspring mattress, but the layers of foam on top help give it a little more plushness. Still, to me it feels a little more supportive than it does soft. You lie more on top of the Allswell mattress than inside of it.
There will be a plastic-y smell when you first take it out of the box, but by the time you put on your sheets and comforter, it’s not as noticeable and that smell goes away in around a day or so.

Firmness
The bed will be a little bit firmer when it’s straight out of the box, but if you give it a few days, it’ll even out to around a medium to medium-firm. On the firmness scale, that works out to around a 6 out of 10, with 10 being the firmest.
Comfort
The Allswell mattress is made with three layers, and it’s a standard 10 inches thick. You can’t cut open the mattress and see what’s on the inside, so I’ll do the explaining for you.
The very bottom layer is made of thin, dense foam to help support the pocketed coils above. Next, you’ll find a 6-inch innerspring system that’s made up of pocketed coils that are individually wrapped, the purpose of which is to help with motion isolation. Each coil moves separately from one another as opposed to the “if one moves, they all move” design.
Above that is a transition layer made up of polyurethane foam, which feels neutral and more responsive than memory foam. And finally, the top layer has 3/4 of an inch of gel memory foam underneath the white quilted cover.
Feel
The bed feels springy in the bottom layer, but I can feel the pressure-relieving foam in the top layers doing their job, gently molding around the curves of my body. That said, the bed is easy to switch positions on because the springs and poly foam help counteract the slow-responding nature of the memory foam found under the quilted cover. And the firmness helps provide support too, so you’re not sinking into the mattress.
Motion isolation
Even though Allswell is a hybrid mattress, its motion isolation is fairly effective. It actually deadens movement pretty well. After placing a glass of water on the end of the Allswell mattress and walking all around the bed, the glass barely jiggled. If you aggressively toss and turn you might be able to feel some movement, but overall, it does a pretty good job.
Edge support
The amount of support I felt around the edges of the Allswell was not wonderful — not as great as with other hybrid mattresses I’ve tested, such as the Saatva mattress or the Purple Hybrid. But, considering how little the Allswell mattress costs, I didn’t expect it to blow me away. You don’t feel like you’re going to go rolling off the side of the bed, but there is more give around the perimeter compared to similar hybrids.
Temperature
The Allswell’s hybrid construction and slightly firmer profile makes it a better contender than memory foam mattresses for regulating temperature. I wouldn’t call it a cold sleeping mattress, though — it’s more temperature neutral. I didn’t find myself overheating on the Allswell mattress, but it isn’t going to be as breathable or cooling as something like the GhostBed Luxe or Purple Hybrid.
Who is it best for?
Beds aren’t always made to accommodate all kinds of sleepers. Here’s who we think the Allswell mattress suits best.
Position
I think this mattress is perfect for back, stomach and combination sleepers because it offers plenty of support to keep your spine in neutral alignment, yet ample pressure relief so that the bed isn’t too firm. You may not love it if you’re a strict side sleeper, particularly if you weigh under 150 pounds. If that sounds like you and you’re more interested in a soft mattress, our list of the best mattresses for side sleepers has more options to consider.
Body type
The Allswell Hybrid is able to accommodate all body types from petite to plus size — however, Allswell does have a foam mattress for the people under 230 pounds who want to save even more money.

The major highlight and probably the biggest reason why you’d purchase an Allswell Hybrid mattress is its price and overall value. Whether you want a cheap mattress for yourself, your guest bedroom or your kid going off to college, it doesn’t get much more affordable than this. A queen size Allswell mattress will cost around $389 on the Allswell website. Allswell and a lot of other mattress brands will be running discounts for various summer holidays, making the mattress even cheaper.
Trial, warranty and shipping
Allswell follows what’s pretty standard for company policies in the bed-in-a-box industry. You’ll receive free shipping, as well as free returns if you decide you don’t think the mattress is right for you. You have 100 nights to decide whether or not you like it, and if you do decide to keep it, your bed will be insured with a 10-year warranty.
Other mattresses by Allswell
- Allswell Luxe: The Allswell Luxe is a 12-inch mattress that takes it up a notch from the flagship model. I’d rate this mattress medium-firm on our firmness scale, which makes it ideal for combination sleepers. This mattress has a pretty bouncy feel and the memory foam contours your curves while providing adequate support. Like other mattresses from Allswell, this is a hybrid mattress, meaning it features memory foam and individually wrapped coils to reduce motion transfer.
- Allswell Brick: The Allswell Brick Hybrid 12-inch Mattress is the brand’s firmest model. This bed comprises individually wrapped coils, which is great for reducing motion transfer if you’re a co-sleeper. On top of the coils, it has a 2-inch layer of high density foam, which adds to the Allswell Brick’s firmness. A 1-inch layer of copper-infused memory foam tops this bed for optimal temperature regulation. This bed is best for back and stomach sleepers.
- Allswell Supreme: At 14 inches tall, this mattress is the most luxurious bed offered by Allswell. Unlike the Brick, which features a copper-infused topper, the Supreme mattress has a built-in euro top for added plushness. This bed also has individually wrapped coils for maximum motion isolation and reinforced edges provide good edge support. The memory foam layer is great for pressure relief and I found this bed to sleep temperature-neutral. The medium firmness level should accommodate most sleeping positions.
The final verdict
Not everyone is looking to spend a thousand bucks on a mattress, but everyone surely needs a good night’s sleep. I appreciate Walmart for making such a quality mattress at such a low price. It’s pressure-relieving enough for most side sleepers, and back and stomach sleepers are properly supported. It checks a lot of boxes while boasting an affordable price tag — one of the cheapest on the internet, for that matter.
You might like this mattress if:
- You’re on a budget
- You sleep mainly on your back, stomach, or a combination of all of three sleeping positions
- You’re a medium to plus-size side sleeper
- You are looking for extra support
- You want a more neutral feel from your mattress
You might not like this mattress if:
- You want a memory foam bed
- You want a luxury mattress
- You weigh under 150 pounds and sleep on your side
- You generally love softer mattresses
