Introduction to Avocado Mattress

The Avocado Green Mattress was my introduction to organic mattresses, and after testing nearly a dozen others, it's still my personal favorite. 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.

Construction and Materials

Avocado makes a few different mattresses: the original Avocado Green Mattress, which is what I've tested, along with a Luxury version (which adds Hemp and is overall a plusher, softer mattress) and a lower-priced Eco version. Avocado also offers a vegan mattress that is the same as the original, but does not use wool.

One of the standout features of the Avocado Green Mattress is the company's use of high-quality organic and sustainable materials. The mattress uses 100 percent GOLS (Global Organic Latex Standard) certified latex, which is sourced from organic rubber trees.
