Our Verdict

IKEA VALEVÅG

Allswell Hybrid

The Allswell Hybrid and IKEA VALEVÅG have different strengths. The Allswell is firmer and more supportive, making it a better option for most back/stomach sleepers. It also offers significantly better motion isolation, so you'll feel fewer of your partner's movements. The IKEA VALEVÅG offers better pressure relief, so it's much more comfortable for side sleepers, especially in the average-weight and heavier categories. If you're a hot sleeper, you might prefer it for its significantly better cooling.
