Dogs really have it all, and nowhere is this more evident than in the plush beds we buy them to lounge in all day. Finally, there is a human-dog bed. It is called Pluff and it might be the best place ever to take a nap.

After learning about the Pluff and when I looked at the pictures of happy owners curled up in the cozy embrace of the bed-sofa-chair, I decided I had to have one. Or at least try one out – you know, for research. My $299 beige Plufl arrived in a large box with easy assembly instructions. After stuffing two awkward noodle-shaped side pillows into the plush cover and sandwiching an oval memory foam mattress between them.

I zipped the ends up and then it was time for Plufl.

What is the Plufl

The XXL Plufl ($399) could be used as an additional guest bed in an emergency.

A cross between a beanbag, hammock and plush bed, the Plufl is the most comfortable piece of furniture I own. The shape is the Plufl’s key advantage: it has a built-in headrest, footrest and a round gap where you can wedge your hands and feet for tactile comfort and security.

It’s designed for lounging or napping, but you can easily use it as a guest bed for a not-so-tall house guest. One problem with the Plufl is that a quick rest can turn into an hours-long nap without warning – even for me, a normally rough sleeper.

The Plush Bed for Human Dogs is available in two sizes and four colors. It is made of soft polyester plush fabric that is non-itchy, non-irritating, and breathes better than most polyester fabrics. It also features a medium-firm and comfortable memory foam bottom. The Plufl cradles you gently without swallowing you whole.

The plush Plufl is big enough for you and your furry friend to nap for hours.

It doesn’t exactly scream chic

As much as I want a Plufl in every room, it doesn’t quite fit in with the rest of my house’s decor. And that’s the glaring problem with Plufl: where exactly should I put it?

I’m not sure yet which room the Plufl will live in, but I know he won’t be leaving the house. The bed is pretty heavy – 25 pounds and oddly shaped – but with the sewn-in handles, it’s easy enough to pull from room to room. You wouldn’t want to be constantly carrying it up and down stairs, though.

You can buy the human-dog bed for $299 ($399 for the larger size) on Amazon or Plufl’s website.
