Question from Shilpa

Hi Debra,

I have been researching for a safe mattress ever since I learnt about off gassing. My kid has turned 5 and I was startled to find out how dangerous it is, to be sleeping on the regular memory foam. I am planning to rid all mattresses at home.

I found your site to have valuable information. I would really appreciate if you can compare naturepedic vs avacadogreenmattress . Every time I try a 100% organic bed, it takes me to naturepedic. Is that the only company we should look for or am I missing something here.

Your recommendations and suggestions will be really helpful.

Debra’s Answer

Well, Naturepedic really is the best organic mattress (see Q&A: A Comparison of Certified Organic Mattresses)

But I’ll compare them to Avocado.

Naturepedic Avocado
Latex GOLS certified organic natural latex
Wool GOTS certified organic natural wool
Cotton GOTS certified organic GOTS certified organic

The biggest difference, however, is that Naturepedic is a certified organic mattress manufacturer, which means that every aspect of the process is certified organic—everything from the materials to the factory.

The only thing organic about this avocado is the cotton. Who knows what’s happening in the factory.

I’ll just mention that the Avocado website headline is false and misleading. they are not “Earth’s most green & healthy mattress.”
