The Avocado Mattress is Good for...
- Eco-conscious shoppers looking to buy a mattress made from natural and organic materials.
- Those who tend to sleep hot.
- Those who sleep with a partner and one partner wakes easily due to movement or noise.
- Those who prefer beds with thicker-than-average profiles.
The Zenhaven Mattress is Good for...
- Those looking for an all-natural, hypoallergenic mattress.
- Those who want a latex mattress, but are unsure how firmness changes with this material. The Zenhaven is a 2-in-1 flippable bed so it provides two comfort choices.
- Those who sleep hot but like the feel of a foam mattress.
Sleep Position Ratings
Avocado Mattress Sleeper Ratings
The Avocado mattress ranks especially well for back and stomach sleepers. The hybrid mattress features a coil support structure which allows for sufficient airflow. The result is a cool, comfortable sleep for most. The pillow-top model conforms more closely, making it ideal for side and back sleepers who weigh up to 230 pounds, while the non-pillow-top version does not conform as much and is most suitable for heavier back and stomach sleepers.
Lightweight (under 130 pounds) stomach sleepers may find the mattress too firm on pressure points like shoulders and hips. However, lightweight sleepers do well on the pillowtop version.
Zenhaven Mattress Sleeper Ratings
The Zenhaven ranks well for all sleeping positions (back, stomach, side, and combination) of all weight classes. The dual firmness option means most sleepers will find one side more comfortable than the other. Lightweight sleepers may prefer the softer side since it gives a more conforming feeling on the body, comforting shoulders and hips. The firmer side is great for those who are looking for the feeling of sleeping on a mattress rather than in a mattress. Back sleepers found the Zenhaven to be especially comfortable with optimal spinal alignment.

How Is the Avocado Built?
The Avocado Green mattress is a hybrid latex mattress. On the top are 2 inches of Dunlop latex. The support core sits below that with one inch of Dunlop latex, all on 8 inches of pocketed coils.
A pillowtop version is available for an additional $240 and adds two inches of thickness. Given its hybrid construction, this mattress sleeps cool for latex. The coiled supportive bottom promotes airflow and allows any heat that enters the mattress from sleepers to easily escape.
The queen size weighs 97 pounds and is 11 inches high. The mattress has handles for easy move-in or flipping, although Avocado mattresses do not need to be flipped.
This mattress ranks a 6.5 in firmness on the 1-10 firmness scale, making it a firm mattress. The pillowtop version that adds 2 inches of Dunlop latex to the top makes this hybrid mattress a 5 on the firmness scale.
How Is the Zenhaven Mattress Built?
The Zenhaven mattress has three layers, all encased in a soft organic cotton cover. At the core of the mattress is 6 inches of Dunlop latex. This makes the mattress slightly bouncy, but not as responsive as traditional innerspring mattresses. On either side of the core is 1 ½ inches of additional latex with each side having a different firmness. One side is considered firm, ranking a 7 on the firmness scale of 1 to 10. The other side is rated as a medium-soft mattress coming in at a 4 on the scale.
The latex used in the Zenhaven has a breathable open cell structure, meaning it resists body heat instead of trapping heat like most memory foam mattresses.
The queen size weighs 125 pounds and measures 11 inches thick.

Trial Period Details

Warranty
Avocado offers a 25-year limited warranty.
Within the first 10 years of ownership, Avocado will replace or repair a defective mattress at no charge to the owner. This warranty is void if the mattress is not removed from the box and decompressed within two weeks of mattress delivery. Mattresses left compressed for longer than this period may suffer structural defects.
During years 11 to 25, the warranty is prorated and the owner is responsible for shipping and transportation costs. The cost for replacement is calculated by a 5 percent increase each year of ownership. For example if the mattress becomes detective during the 11th year, the owner will pay 50 percent of the original price for a new mattress. During year 12, it increases to 55 percent.
After year 21, the mattress owner will be charged 95 percent of the original mattress price. If the model is no longer available, Avocado will replace the mattress with the most comparable model in their current product line.
The warranty covers the following defects:
- Visible sagging or indentations in the sleep surface that measure at least 1 inch deep, and are not the direct result of owner misuse or improper foundational support.
- Physical flaws in the latex that cause the material to split or crack.
- Manufacturing flaws related to the mattress cover, including tears or unraveled stitches.
-
