- Plufl is essentially a huge human dog bed. Two college students from Vancouver, Canada, Noah Silverman and Yuki Kinoshita, have designed and created a human dog bed. Their website quotes, “The Plufl is a premium napping bed engineered to provide the optimal napping experience.” Their goal is to reduce stress and anxiety by providing a sense of security and comfort. They campaigned and received $290,000 to begin their company. As of right now, this company is taking off. You can preorder the beds and they cost $399 for one and $699 for two. I remember when I was younger I’d always fall asleep next to the dog in the dog bed and these two college students have taken something a dog uses and have upgraded it to something humans can use. This is neat innovation because they took something that people use all the time and have used the human need for luxury and created something new. Their inspiration was a local dog at a coffee shop. This dog is a great Dane and their owners bought a custom made bed for the dog because it was so huge. After seeing this huge bed they realized they were interested it and maybe humans would want to purchase a dog bed for themselves. As college students, they prioritize naps and thought this would be a great idea. I’ve always loved how cute and comfy dog beds could be and I think it’s a really awesome idea to just make huge person sized one
s. It’s unique that they are in college, but still have created and founded this company. They are actually about to be on Shark Tank, so you’ll have to watch for them! https://www.upworthy.com/brilliant-students-created-giant-dog-beds-for-humans-here-s-what-they-cost

I just saw this on TikTok and I love the idea. Personally am not much of a napper and the cost is a little steep for me. But the idea is definitely unique. So perhaps after Shark Tank, the idea will get streamlined and be a little cheaper. Any dog person and big-time napper would love this. Can’t wait to see where it goes!
This is a supper fun idea and it’s no Suprise to me that the company gained a lot of attraction quickly. It’s a supper fun and new place to take a nap in and I think they have huge potential to grow moving forward.
As an owner of two dogs (shoutout to Link & Koda), and a huge fan of napping, I LOVE THIS IDEA. I think it’s awesome that these two young people took something that is already used for dogs, and converted to something that people can use. I think it will find great success, especially because it’s creating a new market.
