I’m obsessed with my new vegan avocado mattress that is made safe, non-toxic, and eco-friendly with organic cotton and latex!
After my recent move I was on my friend’s blow up bed for nearly two weeks.
I got tired of sleeping on air fast, but it was definitely worth the wait because of what I was waiting for.
Guys, I was waiting to receive my Vegan Avocado Mattress delivery.
Yes, a vegan mattress that also happens to be eco-friendly and named after one of my favorite fruits.
When the delivery guys gingerly unfurled it onto the bed frame, I swooned.
I immediately fell in love with my new button-tufted mattress that reads AVOCADO in olive green stitching on the side.
A love that grew deeper when I plopped down for my first good night’s sleep in weeks.
I shared a bit about my decision to try an Avocado Mattress on Instagram and promised to share my thoughts in a post.
So, get comfy and let’s pillow-talk.
So, what is Avocado Mattress ?
I remember the first time I found out that my generic mattresses had some not very appealing things inside of them.
The knowledge made me want to chuck my Sears-sold mattress out the window, but after some targeted deep-breathing I decided to relax and research options.
When I first heard about Avocado Mattress from Instagram I knew I eventually wanted to have one of my own.
I was (and still am) so impressed and excited that an entirely green and vegan exists on the market today.
Their mission is to be the most respected source for organic and natural mattresses, pillows, and bedding at affordable prices!
And they do all of this while maintaining environmentally conscious, ethical, and sustainable business practices that improve our health and protect the planet.
The company was founded by husband and wife who were looking for a green and natural yet affordable mattress for their son.
And when they didn’t find one…they made one. And then lots.
And then one for me.
My brand new queen-sized avocado mattress was designed in Hoboken and handmade in California with organic certified, natural, and non-toxic materials.
Are Avocado Mattresses made from avocados?
A valid question, right?
Well, not exactly, although that does sound delicious.
What they are made of is some high quality stuff that I feel good about sleeping on.
The vegan mattress is a green and eco-conscious mattress with materials including:
- GOLS organic certified latex
- GOTS organic certified cotton
- 1,414 pocketed support coils
Avocado Mattress offers both vegan and green mattresses, but I opted to go for the vegan certified and PETA approved vegan mattress that replaces wool with GOTS organic certified cotton.
So, what make Avocado Mattress special?
Avocado Mattress‘s mission is to provide us with a healthy sleep environment while promoting sustainability and social responsibility.
Here are some of the things that make them special:
- MADE SAFE certified non-toxic
- GREENGUARD Gold certified by UL Environment for low emissions
- NO petroleum-based polyurethane foams
- NO chemical flame retardants
- As a Carbonfree® Partner they offset the emissions from factory and product shipping on an annual basis via carbon offsets purchased from Carbonfund
The mattress still meets all federal flammability requirements standards without any of the common chemical additives.
So, be honest, is a vegan and green mattress comfortable?
YES.
In my initial search for a better for you mattress, I assumed that I probably needed to sacrifice comfort for a safer product.
WRONG.
I can safely say that my Avocado Mattress is the most comfortable mattress I’ve ever owned.
You have the option to add an additional pillow top to your mattress, which I highly recommend.
The Euro pillow-top has 2 additional inches of plush organic latex for additional pressure relief and luxury.
I opted to get the pillow top for extra cushion after reading reviewers raving about it.
It has built in zoned back support with an internal support unit to keep you feeling well supported through your sweet dreams!
Along with my vegan mattress I also got two avocado pillows to complete the set that are soft, plump, and pliable.
Pro tip: you can adjust the “plumpness” of the pillows by unzipping and removing some of the cotton padding for an automatic thinner pillow!
Thinking of trying Avocado Mattress?
