Here’s what you need to know about the pillow everyone is talking about, including whether or not it’s worth snagging for yourself.

What is the Allswell Cooling Pillow?

As the name suggests, the Allswell Cooling Pillow is, well, a pillow that keeps you cool. It does that via a layer of cooling gel tucked under the cozy knit cover (which is machine-washable, by the way). The gel is designed to pull heat away from your body to keep you from getting too warm overnight. The pillow itself is also made of cushioned yet supportive memory foam, so you won’t wake up with aches and pains.

Is the Allswell Cooling Pillow worth buying?

For anyone who’s sleep has been more of a nightmare than a sweet dream, the Allswell Cooling Pillow may be a worthy investment. Take it from the hundreds of well-rested customers who have given it a 5-star review. “Best pillow I have ever purchased,” one person wrote. “It keeps me cool—no more head sweating, no more fluffing the pillow back into shape.” Many others credited the pillow as the reason they were finally able to get a full night of sleep.

For $40, it’s a little pricier than a run-of-the-mill pillow you’d find at Target, but according to those who have tried it, sleeping better and more comfortably is well worth the extra cost. Note: It’s currently only available in a standard queen size.
