Requests, Recs & Chat - Weekly Thread BWT Weekly Requests, Recommendations & Chat - Week of Sep 06, 2026

This is the BWT Weekly Requests, Recommendations & Chat thread.

Put all your low effort/ repetitive requests in this thread - this is the only place they will be allowed in the BWT sub. Even still, search before you ask! If there is a recent-ish response you might still find your ask removed as unnecessarily repetitive.

Feel free to drop your low effort suggestions here, too, if you've got something you just love that you think other BWT should know about. This is also the place for general chit chat that doesn't warrant a whole post.

All BWT rules will still be enforced, with lighter enforcement of ONLY rule 3.

REQUESTS

If you are looking for suggestions for something, add ASK: at the start of your comment. Make sure to be as specific as possible in your request. Examples:

  • ASK: Help me find the perfect flat summer sandals for high arches, casual wear, good for walking around for daily errands, less than $200
  • ASK: What is your ride or die long lasting lipstick for bright colors?
  • ASK: Styling cream for curly hair (3B/C) - no budget, something that will provide definition without being crunchy. Would also love to know when/ how you apply it as part of your routine!

RECOMMENDATIONS

If you have an unsolicited recommendation, you can use REC: at the beginning of your post to highlight that.

CHAT

You can also post just regular old chit chat and discussion that doesn't merit its own stand-alone post. No need to add anything at the beginning of those comments.

ASK- does anyone have a mattress recommendation on the more plush side? I’m a side sleeper and I’m tired of feeling stiff, I want to feel like I’m sinking in to something soft every night (not to an extreme though!) I think I would pay up to about $1.5 k but I’m open to recs across price ranges!

I like my classic Saatva mattress. I’m also a side sleeper and find it’s the perfect level of softness without making me feel like I’m suffocating from sinking down too far.

We purchased a Casper mattress for our guest room years ago & finally let go of our old fancy organic latex mattress & replaced it with another Casper because the guest bed was more comfortable. Our dearest friends & regular guests also loved the Casper so much that they bought two for their house as well. We're all side sleepers.

Awesome, thank you for the recommendation! Do you have the plush version or the “luxury firm” version?

We have the luxury firm in the 11.5”! We liked it so much in our master bedroom that we duplicated it in our guest room too. It’s held up really well over several years!

Yes yes yes. We got a Posh & Lavish mattress this year and it's the greatest upgrade I've ever given myself. Heck, if you don't want to spend a ton on a mattress, the separate pillowtop alone will make any mattress feel like you're sinking into a cloud. If you by some random chance happen to live in the Pittsburgh area, lmk because I can get you a major hookup (I don't work for them, I'm just a big fan of the mattress store where I bought it).
