The Avocado Green hybrid mattress is the only mattress my wife and I 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. After nearly two years of sleeping on it, there's zero sagging or other issues. WIRED mattress contributor Jeffrey Van Camp has also tested and liked the Avocado.
If you prefer a soft feel, there's a pillow-top option, or you can add a mattress topper, like the company's luxurious Alpaca fur mattress topper . Avocado also sells a no-spring organic natural latex foam mattress and a vegan hybrid model that uses no wool, but we haven't tested those models. The Avocado Green is 11 inches thick and made from organic latex, organic wool, and organic cotton. It's also not toxic. It contains no polyurethane, fire retardants, memory foam, or chemical adhesives, according to the company. Avocadoand latex farm and co-owns an organic latex processing facility, all in India. The mattresses are assembled in California.
There's a one-year trial, a 25-year warranty, and free shipping available on all Avocado mattresses. Like other mattress-in-a-box options, the Avocado arrives compressed. The company is also a certified B Corporation that's purchasing enough offsets to be able to say it operates as a carbon-negative business.
