Not so ideal for sleepers, who

Firmness

Firmness defines how soft or hard a mattress can be. This is a very subjective matter. A particular bed may be soft to one and firm to the other. It depends on personal choice, body weight, and type. Whether soft or firm, a mattress should support body weight, promote healthy spine alignment, and ensure comfortable and restful sleeping.

The Avocado Green offers two different firmness; one for the Standard version and one for the Pillow-top version. The Standard version is medium-firm with firmness on a scale of 7 out of 10. It offers a gentle but firm feel with an 11-inch thickness, with 3 inches of organic latex rubber foam that balances firmness, comfort, and support. It is well suited for back and stomach sleepers and growing children.

If you find the Standard version too firm, there is a Euro-style button-tufted Pillow-top component that offers extra cushion and pressure relief. The Pillow-top is filled with a 2-inch layer of GOLS organic certified latex rubber foam, which makes 5 inches. The Pillow-top is 13 inches thick and offers firmness on a scale of 6, thus making this version gentle and luxurious. It provides added buoyant cushioning and adapts more quickly to the body’s natural curves therefore suited to side sleepers, heavy sleepers, athletes, and combination sleepers.

The individually wrapped supportive innerspring coils in both versions of the Avocado Green help keep your back aligned, relieve back pain, and distribute your body weight evenly so that pressure points are alleviated, and critical back support is achieved.

Material & Construction

The Avocado Green Mattress is made using organic materials. The company uses 100% FSC certified Dunlop latex which is eco-friendlier and more durable than Talalay latex. The Standard version of Avocado Green uses two seamless layers of organic latex — 2 inches in the comfort layer and 1-inch in the base; whereas the optional Pillow-top version uses three seamless layers of organic latex — 2 inches in the Euro-top layer, 2 more inches in the comfort layer, and another 1-inch in the base layer. Chemical adhesives are not used to bind the layers; rather, the mattresses are tufted by hand using needles. Individually wrapped innerspring coils between 756 in the Twin to 1414 in the King arranged in five strategic zones and reinforced steel perimeter makes the Avocado Green a bed with consistent support till the edges. These springs are encased in a food-grade polypropylene fabric that allows improved air circulation and spinal support. Three wires gauges of different diameters are used in the mattress making: perimeter coils of 16-gauge in the reinforced sides and the header/footer zones; 17-gauge coils through the center one-third section; and 14-gauge coils on both sides of the center section. These steel coils add to the mattress’ strong edges and long-lasting durability.

The different layers of the Avocado Green are detailed below:

• Layer 1: The top layer is moisture-wicking organic cotton, and the organic wool layer makes the mattress breathable. The organic wool also acts as a natural fire retardant. The top layer adds a little bounce to the mattress and gentle support.
• Layer 2: This layer is only present in the pillow top version. It is a 2 inches thick latex rubber foam layer giving you a feeling of plushness. It cradles around to relieve the pressure points.
• Layer 3: This is the 2 inches thick organic latex layer that makes the mattress resilient and durable and helps in temperature control.
• Layer 4: This 1-inch-thick layer of organic latex ensures the gentler transition to the innerspring base of the mattress.
• Layer 5: This is the support core having individually pocketed innerspring coils. The coils have different diameters and are strategically arranged to relieve pressure at five key zones. The steel coils are also reinforced towards the perimeter to deliver excellent edge support.

Repositioning

Repositioning describes the ability to change positions easily while sleeping. The buoyant nature of the latex makes the Avocado Green a mattress on which movement is relatively easy. The use of up to 1414 independent coils in making the Avocado Green offers ease of movement. The reinforced edges prevent sinking into the mattress; thus, changing positions becomes easy while sleeping on the Avocado Green.

Comfort, Back Support, Pressure Relief

Buying a mattress can be difficult as there is a variety of them available in the market. The right mattress will give you relief from pain upon waking up. So, pain relief is vital for most people looking to buy a new mattress. Back pain can only be relieved when the spine is relaxed.

The Avocado Green, with its best ergonomic support system, ensures to contour your body’s natural curves and offers pressure-point relief. The Pillow-top with an extra latex layer adds to more cradling, thus relieving pressure points. The support system further enables your body weight to be distributed evenly. This also helps in keeping your spine perfectly aligned.

The suitability of the mattress for different sleeping positions is detailed below:

• Back sleepers: Back sleepers need support under their spine and neck to sleep correctly. The zoned support core of the Avocado Green offers solid support to back sleepers where they need it the most. Sleepers below 130 pounds found the firmness appreciable, thus sleeping comfortably. The Pillow-top version offered added cushioning to lightweight sleepers.
• Side Sleepers: Side sleepers put the majority of their weights on their hips and shoulders. Side sleepers above 230 pounds enjoyed the excellent support of the Avocado Green, while sleepers below 130 pounds preferred the Pillow-top version over the Standard version of Avocado Green.
• Stomach sleepers: Stomach sleepers need a firm mattress that would enable them to keep their hips elevated to prevent sinkage. The firmness and the center support of the Avocado Green made stomach sleepers enjoy the mattress. Stomach sleepers below 230 pounds found the mattress to offer the right combination of support and softness. The Pillow-top would also be enjoyable for stomach sleepers. However, the mattress may sag for those weighing above 230 pounds, thus disturbing spine alignment.
• Heavy sleepers: Heavy sleepers need a firm mattress for restful sleep. Heavy sleepers will prefer the Standard option over the Pillow-top version. The latex layers and the individually wrapped coils will give sufficient support to those weighing up to 230 pounds, but those weighing above 230 pounds will need a firmer mattress.

Cooling & Temperature Control

The most critical ambiance determining the quality and duration of the body’s recovery during sleep is a substantial decrease in the core body temperature. Avocado Green uses breathable materials like organic latex, organic wool, and organic cotton that help air circulate in the mattress’s interior, thus regulating temperature quite well. The organic cotton is comfortable and cool and wicks away moisture, keeping you fresh all night. It is breathable, odor-resistant, and has thermos-regulation properties, i.e., it keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. Wool is also naturally fire-resistant and anti-microbial, thus preventing dust mites.

Motion Isolation and Sharing a Bed

Motion isolation describes if movement made across one side of the mattress is felt elsewhere on the mattress or not. A mattress with good motion isolation will neutralize activity made on one side of the bed, thus assisting partners in sleeping peacefully.

Latex mattresses are not good at isolating motion. With its five zoned ergonomic support, the Avocado Green helps to reduce motion transfer. The individually wrapped coil support core offers sufficient motion isolation. The Pillow-top absorbs more motion because of the second comfort latex.

Edge Support

Edge support defines the support that a mattress can offer around its edges. Edge support helps in stabilizing the perimeter of the mattress. It is essential for couples sharing their bed with partners, as poor performance may disturb their partners while getting in and out of bed, and limit using the full bed for sleeping together and having sex.

The Avocado Green is a highly durable and supportive innerspring mattress found in the United States. The individually wrapped tempered steel coils in three gauges offer ergonomic zoned support. These coils float independently, thus boosting reinforced perimeters that provide strong edge support. This helps keep your back aligned, thus relieving you of back pain. The natural density of latex also aids in delivering greater edge support. The strong edges allow you to use the entire surface without the fear of falling off while lying close to the edges. The reinforced edges give support without sinking and sagging.

Recommendation based on sleeping style

Sleeping peacefully at night is as essential as eating good and nutritious food. Sleeping peacefully helps in maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Each one of us sleeps differently, and our needs for comfort and support are also very different and unique. The U.S. Center for Disease Control claims that 1 out of 3 people has insomnia leading to various health problems. The

Below is a detailed description of how Avocado Green is a good fit for different sleep positions.

• Side Sleepers: Side sleepers prefer a mattress that allows their hips and shoulders to sink in just the right amount, reducing pressure buildup. The latex layer used in the Avocado Green allows for contouring the different curves of the body, thus providing ultimate comfort and pressure relief from different joints. These layers also help in redistributing the body weight across the mattress. The Avocado Green is well suited to sleepers above 230 pounds as they would get the required comfort sleeping on the Standard version of the mattress. Sides sleepers weighing between 130-230 pounds will sleep comfortably on the Pillow-top version. Sleepers below 130 pounds will also enjoy the Pillow-top version as its plushness allow hips and shoulders to sink in the right amount, thus relieving pressure points.
• Back Sleepers: Back sleepers need to look for a mattress that supports their back and spine. Back sleepers weighing between 130-230 pounds will find the Standard Avocado Green well suited to their needs. The individually wrapped coils will provide support and pressure point relief at the hips, shoulders, and neck. The Pillow-top version will suit back sleepers weighing between 130-180 pounds. Back sleepers below 130 pounds will also enjoy the comfort of the Pillow-top version.
• Stomach Sleepers: Stability and support are essential for stomach sleepers not to cause back or hip pain; thus, they need firmer mattresses. The Standard Avocado Green will give stomach sleepers between 130-230 pounds good comfort. The individually wrapped coils are arranged to provide balanced comfort and support to your hips. Sleeping on the Pillow-top will give sufficient comfort to stomach sleepers below 150 pounds. Lightweight sleepers will get support from the zoned coils underneath the latex layers.
• Combination Sleepers-Those who alternate between various positions: Combination sleepers tend to change positions while sleeping. Combination sleepers will enjoy sleeping on the Avocado Green as both comfort and support will be provided by the latex layers and individually wrapped coils. Combination sleepers can choose between the Standard and Pillow-top versions of the Avocado Green for maximum comfort.
