Avocado Eco Organic Mattress Review: Test Lab Findings

Not surprisingly, the Eco Organic struggles with motion isolation. Light sleepers who share their bed with a partner might have a hard time getting a full night’s rest. – Brad

As with most latex hybrids, the Avocado Eco Organic Mattress transfers a fair amount of motion across the bed. This happens because of the bounciness of both latex and the coils. While Avocado has designed these materials to reduce vibrations, our testing team found that there was still noticeable motion transfer.

For many bed partners, the vibrations won’t be bothersome enough to disrupt their sleep. But for light sleepers who are easily awakened, a latex hybrid like the Avocado Eco Organic may not be the optimal mattress type.

If you need deep cushioning to reduce pressure buildup in your most sensitive spots, the Eco Organic might not be plush enough. However, people who prefer light contouring should be satisfied with this mattress. – Brad

With a comfort system measuring just over 2 inches, the Avocado Eco Organic Mattress delivers average pressure relief. The wool quilting, Dunlop latex, and pocketed coils combine to provide moderate contouring that cushions areas where the sleeper makes the most contact with the mattress. 

These qualities allow the Eco Organic Mattress to provide enough pressure relief for most people. But sleepers with sharp pressure points or who want to be closely hugged by their mattress may get better results from a material like memory foam.

As a hot sleeper, I appreciated the Avocado Eco Organic’s breathable natural materials. The organic cotton, wool, and latex layers work together to wick away heat and enhance the airflow through the coil layer. – Danny

The Avocado Eco Organic Mattress excels at temperature control. Latex naturally resists heat retention, and both cotton and wool are breathable and wick away moisture. In the support core, pocketed coils allow ample room for ventilation to cool the mattress down.

In addition, because sleepers don’t sink into the mattress, air can flow around the skin to stop overheating. All of these aspects of the Eco Organic Mattress make it an ideal choice for hot sleepers.

The Avocado Eco Organic has top-notch sturdiness along the edges, so you can truly use every inch of the surface without fear of rolling off. It’s a nice contrast to some all-foam beds I’ve tried, which I always feel like I’m about to roll off of. – Jackson

The Avocado Eco Organic Mattress offers above-average edge support, largely due to the reinforced perimeter in the support core. The latex layer also has enough pushback and resilience to prevent excessive sinking around the edge.

Edge support makes it easier to get in and out of bed, and it provides a sense of security when sitting or sleeping near the outside part of the mattress. Strong edge support is also appealing for couples since it lets them take advantage of the full surface area of the mattress.

The springy latex and pocketed coils make movement very easy on this bed. I never felt stuck or trapped while moving around. – Danny

Resilient Dunlop latex and bouncy pocketed coils give the Eco Organic Mattress a highly responsive surface that permits easy movement on the bed. According to our testing team, there was absolutely no “quicksand” feeling that can arise on foam mattresses.

Ease of movement is an important characteristic if you are a combination sleeper and want to change positions during the night without annoying resistance from your mattress. The resilience of the Eco Organic Mattress is also beneficial if you dislike feeling stuck in place when lying in bed.

The Avocado Eco Organic definitely had a smell after I unboxed it. I wouldn’t necessarily call it unpleasant – my son likened it to vanilla. It stuck around for about a week but disappeared over time. – Jackson

As a latex hybrid made from natural and organic materials, the Avocado Eco Organic Mattress does not off-gas in the way that most mattresses do. This is because it does not have synthetic foams or adhesives that often emit a chemical smell.

That isn’t to say the Eco Organic Mattress is completely free of odors. Our testers noticed a faint rubbery smell from the latex right after unboxing, but it wasn’t bothersome and dissipated quickly.
