Awara natural mattress

Our take – An environmentally friendly company with numerous green certifications, Awara makes its latex mattresses with 100% natural, organic and nontoxic materials. Rated a 6.5 on the firmness scale, the Awara Natural Hybrid Mattress has a medium-firm feel. This firmness works for a wide array of sleepers, especially back and stomach sleepers and heavier sleepers. Side sleepers should consider upgrading to the Premier Natural Hybrid mattress as it is slightly softer and more pressure-relieving for the hips and shoulders.

Pros & Cons


Pros

  • Made with natural and nontoxic materials
  • Works for back, stomach and combination sleepers
  • Certified third-party sustainability champions

Cons

  • The coil layer may cause added motion transfer
  • Might be a little too firm for strict side sleepers

These hybrid latex mattresses are comprised of four layers of premium organic materials, starting with a plush Euro Top. This pillow top is filled with certified organic wool from New Zealand and covered with a sleek-feeling organic cotton cover. The next layer consists of four inches of Dunlop latex for pressure relief and joint comfort. Then comes a layer of wrapped eight-inch coils for less motion transfer and improved breathability. 

We particularly like that Awara partners with Trees.org to promote sustainability. The organization aims to “end hunger and poverty by training farmers to regenerate their land.” To contribute to this organization, Awara plants ten trees for every mattress it sells.

The queen-size retail price is just under $1,400, you can expect several hundred dollars in discounts from the brand.

Pros & Cons


Pros

  • Made with eco-friendly and organic materials
  • Customizable firmness
  • Suitable for most sleeping positions

Cons

  • It’s a bit expensive
  • You have set up the mattress and its layers yourself
  • Might be too firm for side sleepers under 150 pounds

The medium organic latex mattress option is best for side sleepers and is chosen by 80% of PlushBeds shoppers. Medium-firm constructions are the best latex mattresses for those weighing over 275 pounds, back sleepers and stomach sleepers. 

The PlushBeds Botanical Bliss also incorporates 10 pounds of certified organic wool from New Zealand, adding natural elasticity, moisture-wicking properties and temperature-regulating support to the mix. The company also offers a free latex mattress topper comfort exchange during the sleep trial. This trial period exchange offer allows you to swap your firmness level for a new top comfort layer of the other firmness option. You can also typically expect PlushBeds to offer a discount.
