After years of testing, the Avocado Green hybrid mattress remains one of the best organic mattresses I've slept on. It's the only mattress my wife and I can agree on. She likes a soft mattress, and I prefer a firm one. This model somehow manages to be both without being too much of either. It's also good for combination sleepers like myself, who spend time in just about every position in the course of a night. After nearly three years of sleeping on this Avocado, it's proven its durability—there's zero sagging or other issues.
Avocado's organic, nontoxic mattresses are made in the USA from GOLS-certified organic latex, GOTS-certified organic wool, and GOTS-certified organic cotton. While the sustainable, organic materials and eco-friendly construction were definitely part of the initial appeal, what really stands out about Avocado in all my testing is the comfort.
The Avocado Green mattress uses pocketed coils, which are steel coils wrapped in a sleeve (the pocket) made of fabric. Each coil moves independently, which increases motion isolation. That means you get the support of an innerspring mattress while minimizing “motion transfer,” meaning you don't feel like you're on a trampoline every time your partner rolls over.
There's a one-year trial, a 25-year warranty, and free shipping available on all Avocado mattresses. If you prefer a plusher feel, there's also a pillow-top option, or you can add a topper, like the company's luxurious (and sustainable) Alpaca fur topper.
The Avocado Green is 11 inches thick and arrives compressed. Avocado offers a 25-year warranty that covers any defects or issues, including visible indentation “equal or greater than one and a half inches.” —Scott Gilbertson
The price ranges from $1,400 for a twin to $2,700 for a California king, although the mattresses are often discounted.
