You’re going to be sleeping for roughly 23 years of your life, on average, so why not choose the best organic mattress? These natural beds are easier on the environment and your health—and they feel like a dream.
Conventional mattresses often have questionable materials in them. Everything from polyurethane foams with formaldehyde and chlorinated tris (a flame retardant) to phthalates can end up in nonorganic mattresses, off-gassing into your home. How much these substances impact you isn’t scientifically settled, but one way to avoid possible harm is to get a natural mattress made from organic materials. Most natural mattresses are made of a combination of wool, natural latex, and cotton. The construction is similar to conventional mattresses but without the chemicals.
Once you’ve settled on a mattress, check out our other eco-friendly home guides, including the Best Organic Mattress Toppers, Best Organic Sheets, and the Best Eco-Friendly Cleaning Products. We’ve also got a guide to the best mattresses that includes nonorganic picks.
Updated November 2025: We’ve added the Woolroom Luxury Wooly Mattress as the best organic wool mattress pick, as well as two new honorable mentions, Bear Natural and the Thuma Hybrid.

Luxe Natural Mattress
Birch’s Luxe organic mattress is again our top pick because it’s so well-rounded. It’s a great organic model that offers good support, but also a good bit of pressure relief (Birch calls it a medium-firm mattress). It’s a little on the bouncy side, meaning that it springs back a good bit when you turn around, which makes it a good choice for back sleepers, since you’re well supported.
The Birch Luxe is made of natural materials and uses individually wrapped steel coils, which are topped with layers of organic latex and wool, capped off with a GOTS-certified organic cotton cover. The coils offer full lumbar support and are arranged to cradle your spine but are also stiff around the edge. The Luxe started off with an odd little lip around the edge of the mattress, but after a couple of months that went away. There’s no sag in the Birch Luxe, and I had none of the lower-back pain I associate with softer mattresses. The wool and latex top layers provide truly exceptional temperature regulation, and the pillowy top provides a nice bit of softness. (The pillow top is the main thing that separates this from the cheaper, not-Luxe model.)
Birch offers free shipping and a 100-night trial period, and all its mattresses have a 25-year warranty. Birch offers an in-home setup and removal of your old mattress through LoadUp; details can be found on Birch’s website. The Luxe arrived completely compressed, and while it was small, it was definitely heavy. If your mattress is headed upstairs, or you’re not comfortable lifting bulky, heavy objects, we recommend going for the in-home setup option. —Scott Gilbertson
Birch Luxe ranges from $1,624 for a twin to $3,214 for a California king.

Avocado
Green Organic Hybrid Mattress
After years of testing, the Avocado Green hybrid mattress remains one of the best organic mattresses I’ve slept on. It’s the only mattress my wife and I can agree on. She likes a soft mattress, and I prefer a firm one. This model somehow manages to be both without being too much of either. It’s also good for combination sleepers like myself, who spend time in just about every position in the course of a night. After nearly three years of sleeping on this Avocado, it’s proven its durability—there’s zero sagging or other issues.
Avocado’s organic, nontoxic mattresses are made in the USA from GOLS-certified organic latex, GOTS-certified organic wool, and GOTS-certified organic cotton. While the sustainable, organic materials and eco-friendly construction were definitely part of the initial appeal, what really stands out about Avocado in all my testing is the comfort.
The Avocado Green mattress uses pocketed coils, which are steel coils wrapped in a sleeve (the pocket) made of fabric. Each coil moves independently, which increases motion isolation. That means you get the support of an innerspring mattress while minimizing “motion transfer,” meaning you don’t feel like you’re on a trampoline every time your partner rolls over.
There’s a one-year trial, a 25-year warranty, and free shipping available on all Avocado mattresses. If you prefer a plusher feel, there’s also a pillow-top option, or you can add a topper, like the company’s luxurious (and sustainable) Alpaca fur topper.
The Avocado Green is 11 inches thick and arrives compressed. Avocado offers a 25-year warranty that covers any defects or issues, including visible indentation “equal or greater than one and a half inches.” —Scott Gilbertson
Avocado Green ranges from $1,499 for a twin to $2,899 for a California king.

The Most Customizable Organic Mattress

Naturepedic
EOS Classic Organic Mattress
Naturepedic’s highly customizable mattress system makes it possible to satisfy sleeping partners with different firmness levels on each side of the bed. The EOS (pronounced EEE-oz) is a multipart zip-together system. There’s a cover that you put over separate layers of foam and individually wrapped coils. It’s much more like a traditional innerspring mattress than many on this list, if that’s what you’re after.
The EOS is made with organic cotton, wool, and latex. It’s a big and sturdy mattress that comes disassembled in three boxes. The biggest reason to buy, though, is the fact that you can swap out the five different latex layers for free for 100 nights, giving you the chance to fine-tune your firmness. After that you can still swap them but you’ll have to buy the new layers—still a nice option if your body or preferences change, or if you get a new partner who has different needs.
Getting these zippered systems to have totally taut and even edges is a chore I have not mastered; you may end up with a funky-looking corner or two unless you invest some time adjusting. —Martin Cizmar
Naturepedic EOS ranges from $2,399 for a twin mattress to $4,699 for a California King.

S&S Organic Mattress
I’m a big fan of Silk & Snow products in general, as the quality and value are (in my professional opinion) some of the best I’ve seen to date in the industry. The S&S Organic is no exception, especially for those who want an organic latex bed for a solid price. When I tested it for myself, the latex and coil layers did the most to offset any tension I felt along my side while side sleeping.
Certifications are very important for organic beds, as we know, and this one has the stuff you want to see. This includes Global Organic Latex Standard certified organic latex that is also eco-Institut tested. The S&S Organic also has Global Organic Textile Standard organic cotton and organic wool. Just as nature intended, mattress edition. —Julia Forbes
The price ranges from $800 for a twin to $1,300 for a California king.

Zenhaven Natural Latex Mattress
It’s assumed that most mattress shoppers are selecting between soft and firm, or trying to find a middle ground acceptable to partners with different preferences. But what if your tastes change with the seasons or how achy your muscles are after a long, active day? The Zenhaven lets you choose a side.
Saatva’s Zenhaven is made of organic latex protected by an organic wool liner and an organic cotton cover. The two sides, labeled Plush and Firm, don’t vary as much as dedicated soft and firm mattresses, with the company claiming an 18 percent difference in the two, but it does offer a nice change of pace. Beyond that, the Zenhaven is pricey but extremely well built (and heavy—this is not a mattress-in-a-box). It has great edge support, sleeps neither hot nor cool, and will last you years. —Martin Cizmar
Saatva Zenhaven ranges from $2,049 for a twin to $4,899 for an Upper-Flex king.

Another Great Luxe Option

Coyuchi
Natural REM Organic Mattress
Organic bedding brand Coyuchi recently launched its own organic mattress, combining cotton, wool, and Dunlop latex atop individually wrapped coils. While Coyuchi’s linen sheets are excellent, I was a little nervous to try the company’s first mattress effort. Bedding is not a mattress, after all, and expertise does not always transfer across endeavors. In this case, though, it did. Coyuchi’s organic Natural REM Mattress is wonderfully firm without being too firm and perfect for those of us who lack a sleeping style and tend to sleep every which way—side, back, stomach. I was never uncomfortable.
The design starts with encased coils on a wool pad and then, like a Midwestern dip, layers in smaller coils, latex, and then wool, and tops it off with an organic cotton cover. There’s surprisingly good edge support considering the distance between the coils and the top, and the mattress provides good motion isolation as well. Coyuchi says the Natural REM can be used with or without a box spring. I tested it for a few months on a box spring and then spent a week with it just on the floor and did not notice a difference. At 11 inches deep, there’s room for a topper, though I did not feel the need.
The cotton and wool layers are GOTS-certified organic, while the Dunlop latex carries the GOLS certification. The material is undyed, which is great for anyone bothered by industrial dyes. As with most of these organic options, the Coyuchi is made without chemicals, foam, or glues. Coyuchi’s Natural REM organic mattress is made to order in the United States and comes with a 100-night trial, which means you can get a full refund if it doesn’t work for you. —Scott Gilbertson
Coyuchi Natural REM ranges from $1,400 for a twin to $2,400 for a California king.

My Green Mattress
Kiwi Children’s (Twin)
My desire for a natural, nontoxic mattress started when I needed new beds for my kids. I care a lot more about what they’re sleeping on than what I’m sleeping on. Still, as much as I love the Avocado Green mattress, it’s not cheap. For my kids, I bought the more affordable Kiwi Mattress by My Green Mattress. The Kiwi is similar to our top pick Avocado. It’s a hybrid model with pocketed springs and natural materials: certified organic cotton, wool, and latex. It’s also something of a rarity; organic twin mattresses are somewhat difficult to find.
One nice twist that makes the Kiwi appealing for kids is the two-sided option. It costs a little more upfront, but being able to flip it over extends its life, which is handy if your kids think beds are actually trampolines in disguise. The Kiwi is definitely a firmer style, but I think it’s comfortable, and my children loved it when they were younger. —Scott Gilbertson
Kiwi Mattress by My Green Mattress ranges from $794 for a twin to $1,798 for a California king.

Essentia
Tatami Organic Mattress
Essentia’s Tatami is vegan, meaning there’s no wool or animal byproducts used, and all materials have been sustainably sourced from farms that follow sustainable and ethical farming practices, including fair trade and labor standards. The mattress has a zippered organic cotton cover that can be easily removed for cleaning, and it has a nontoxic, allergy-free Kevlar fabric barrier. The mattress is made of an organic latex support core with holes for breathability, and the active organic foam helps spinal alignment and contouring support for pressure points.
Without springs, the Tatami is super-comfortable, and the foam really conforms to your body’s curves and pressure points. The Tatami has free shipping, a 120-night sleep trial, and a 20-year warranty. The organic, sustainably sourced, and sustainably made bed is expensive, but it delivers on its high price by being well-balanced with both structure and support (without needing springs). —Molly Higgins

Awara
Premier Luxury Hybrid
The Awara Premier Luxury Hybrid mattress has a comfy (and cool) wool and rayon blend quilted cover top, followed by a layer of sustainable, GOLS- and FSC-certified organic foam, with coils on the bottom for spinal support and structure (including four handles for easier moving). This 12-inch mattress is listed as a 6 on the firmness scale (with 10 being the firmest), and it was slightly more firm than I usually like, but it was still comfortable.
I always slept coolly with that quilted top that helps increase airflow. The edge support was pretty solid, although the top tended to bubble up in certain areas. The cool silkiness just makes it feel elevated—you can tell it’s well-made using solid materials. I really liked this luxe organic model, I just wish it were a tad more plush. —Molly Higgins

Best Organic Wool Mattress
Woolroom
Luxury Wooly Mattress
If you’ve been perusing your fair share of organic mattress reviews, you’ve probably come across mentions of wool in covers, fire barriers, and even as cushiony comfort layers. Now, let me introduce you to a mattress that’s pretty much entirely wool, save for the 8,500 nanocoils, microcoils, and pocketed coils. The Woolroom Luxury Wooly Mattress is an organic hybrid mattress that uses these two main components to deliver head-to-toe support, natural temperature regulation, and light pressure relief.
The wool used in this mattress is certified under both US and UK standards, ensuring it is ethically sourced and environmentally friendly. It provided me with a firmer feel that my lower back enjoyed, but didn’t put my pressure points out due to a lack of cushion. The biggest note with this mattress is that it has a “natural” smell, and while that will go away, it was a bit jarring during testing, given how strong it was. —Julia Forbes
The Woolroom Luxury Wooly Mattress ranges from $1,690 for a twin to $2,730 for a California king.

Bear
Natural Mattress
The Bear Natural mattress is a latex hybrid mattress with a zoned coil system that gives good lumbar support despite being what I would call a medium-soft mattress. It has excellent edge support—among the best I’ve tested, though there is some motion transfer thanks to the somewhat bouncy, floating feel. Also note that while much of the Bear Natural is organic, there is a polyfoam layer between the coils and the latex. —Scott Gilbertson

The Firm option helps prevent excess weight from accumulating around your center, keeping your spine aligned. —Julia Forbes

Turmerry
Natural and Organic Latex Mattress
An excellent solid natural latex mattress that strikes a good balance between support and softness. This is a foam mattress that sleeps closer to a traditional coil mattress, at least at first. Over time, natural latex will slowly shape itself to your main sleeping position.

Awara
Natural Luxury Hybrid Mattress
This isn’t nearly as nice as our top-pick Awara, and the edge support wasn’t great. But it’s inexpensive for what it is, if you’re on a tight budget it’s worth considering.

Birch
Natural Mattress (11-Inch)
We like the Luxe version of this mattress (#2 above) more, but this Birch is a good alternative for side sleepers.
Mattresses are large, and testing them is time- and space-consuming. Members of the WIRED Reviews team have been testing mattresses since 2019. We don’t rely on surveys of random shoppers or labs with falling bowling balls to make our recommendations. We bring each and every bed into our homes for at least seven nights, often longer—in many cases, years longer—of real-life testing. We check the firmness, the edge support, motion transfer, cooling, and finally we consider the company, its reputation, how easy it is to order, how long shipping times are, and what kind of warranty and trial periods are available. You can find all this data in table form above. But beyond the numbers, our reviews heavily rely on our own subjective experiences actually sleeping on the mattresses to form conclusions.
WIRED’s Reviews team is always testing new mattresses, cycling through 50-plus in a year. The majority of beds are samples and are sent to us for free by companies. We keep our top picks when possible so we can compare them to new competitors, but most of these we pass along by giving them away on Facebook Marketplace or similar outlets. We also purchase (and expense) some mattresses we want to test. As noted in our disclaimer, we do make money on referral links, but we will never say we like something that we don’t based on the commission rate.
What Makes a Mattress Organic?
Certified organic mattresses are made of natural, organic materials that have been independently tested to meet standards. Not all “organic”mattresses are equal though. We’ve narrowed our search by sticking with companies that have certifications like the Global Organic Latex Standard (GOLS) and Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS). GOLS covers latex, which has a pretty complex manufacturing process that is not always the healthiest, but GOLS ensures that the finished result is as free of harmful substances as natural latex can be. See our more extensive explainer for more information on these certifications.
The GOTS certification covers everything from certified organic cotton to organic linen to other natural materials. It’s similarly comprehensive, looking not just at how the cotton is grown and processed but also at ecological and social criteria, sustainability, and more. It uses third parties to independently verify that standards are being met. If you’re curious, you can read version 6 of the standard online.
While we especially like the big-picture approach of GOTS and GOLS, there are other certifications that test the finished product. The Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification, which, unlike the others, deals with the final product, making sure there’s no potentially toxic chemicals like the polyurethane foam, PFAS, heavy metals, flame retardants, or volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in many traditional memory foam toppers.
Another thing to look for is the Greenguard Gold certification and UL Environment’s Formaldehyde Free label, which both certify that there are no volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or formaldehyde in your mattress.
Some organic mattresses are also “needle-tufted.” This means the mattress is sewn rather than glued (assuming it’s 100 percent needle-tufted). Since needle-tufted mattresses use no adhesives, you don’t need to worry about VOCs.
How Can I Be Sure a Mattress Is Truly Organic?
As noted above, there are independent standards that have to be met in some cases—which we’ve also outlined in this explainer—but in the particular case of GOLS, the latex certification, the fine print says “organically grown natural rubber latex.” Unfortunately, while it’s great that the rubber trees are grown without harmful chemicals, that doesn’t mean those weren’t added somewhere in the process that transforms rubber tree sap into something you can sleep on. It’s a safe bet that just about any industrial process is going to have a detrimental effect on its source material. How detrimental and what that means for you is often difficult to know. Most companies, when you read the fine print, will say that latex foam is at least 95 percent certified organic latex, which is the highest possible standard.
The remaining 5 percent represents the essential processing agents—required for any manufacturer to make latex foam. The takeaway is that, while perfection may not be achievable, you can and should check the GOLS numbers for the mattress you’re interested in, and if you want more information, reach out to the company directly. Most are happy to shower you with their organic certifications and pedigree. And even if latex is only 95 percent certified organic, these eco-friendly mattress are still much better for you and the planet than conventionally manufactured mattresses.
What Should You Look for in an Organic Mattress?
Here are a few general tips, tricks, and things to look for when shopping for an organic mattress online.
- Know what kind of sleeper you are: Different mattresses are designed for different sleeping styles. Are you a side sleeper? Stomach sleeper? Back sleeper? Or are you like me, a little bit of everything (which they call a combination sleeper)? Knowing the answer to this question can help narrow down your search to mattresses that are a good fit for your sleep habits. This is where mattress reviews like ours come in handy; we test for every kind of sleeper.
- Do you like firm, soft, medium? Mattresses come in different firmness levels, often within the same model. Which one is right for you depends on which firmness option you enjoy, as well as any issues you may have, like back pain.
- Do you sleep hot? cold? The difference matters. For example, solid natural latex mattresses typically don’t breath or have as good airflow, making them hotter—a perfect choice for cold sleepers, but not so great for hot sleepers who would benefit from the temperature regulating properties of wool. Some latex mattresses overcome this with a layer of wool and cotton, which have proved cooler in our testing.
- Innerspring vs. foam: Organic mattresses come in two basic flavors: the traditional innerspring coil design and pure latex foam. We’ve primarily tested and recommend innerspring in this guide, though pure foam designs have improved in recent years, and we’re in the process of testing a few now. The big difference in my experience is the amount of heat that foam retains, though again, mattresses that add a layer of wool are often just as cooling.
- Look for a trial period: Everyone makes mistakes; to avoid having to live with a potential mistake, make sure the mattress you’re considering offers a sleep trial. Everything listed here offers some kind of sleep trial period after which, if you’re not happy, you can return the mattress.
- More expensive doesn’t mean better: Organic mattresses aren’t cheap, but there’s no reason to spend a fortune just to get a good, eco-friendly night’s sleep. Our top pick, the Avocado Green Mattress lists at just over $2,000 for the queen, which is less than our top pick non-organic mattress.
- Check the warranty: Lifetime warranties are rare these days, but most of the mattresses we’ve tested offer around 25-year warranties. Some companies cap it at 10 years, but view those with suspicion. A good mattress should last more than 10 years, and good companies are willing to stand behind their products for that long.
- Wait for a sale: Mattresses go on sale all the time, usually every few months for most brands. Unless you need a new mattress right now, you’re probably better off waiting for the next big sale.
Do You Need a Box Spring to Accompany Your Organic Mattress?
Mattresses these days (organic included) are engineered to have the support of a box spring already built into the mattress by way of coils, which eliminates the need for a separate box spring. Most contemporary mattresses are a mattress and a box spring in one. The exceptions are some latex mattresses, which are just that, pure latex.
Because modern mattresses are an all-in-one proposition, many manufacturers discourage the use of a box spring, as it may damage the bed. For example, with our top two picks, Avocado and Birch, using a box spring may void your warranty. Most manufacturers recommend platform beds or slatted frames, but be sure to check with the manufacturer of your mattress and read the fine print in the warranty.
Are Organic Mattresses Zero Waste?
Nothing is zero waste, but buying a mattress that will last many years produces less waste then buying one you have to replace often.
Do Organic Mattresses Last as Long?
The longevity of any mattress is a direct result of the quality of materials used and the construction methods employed. Typically, though, both in our testing and results from labs, higher-quality natural materials like those in the mattresses featured here outperform synthetic alternatives, particularly when it comes to sagging. Probably the best way to prevent your mattress from sagging is to make sure you have adequate support from a good foundation or bed frame.
Are Organic Mattresses More Flammable?
One major chemical group that organic mattresses exclude are fire retardants, so does that mean they’re more flammable? In fact, the opposite is true: Organic mattresses use natural materials like wool that are naturally fire-resistant and therefore meet flammability standards without additional chemicals. It’s the flammable synthetic materials in non-organic mattresses that require fire retardants.
How Does WIRED Acquire Mattresses to Test?
WIRED often accepts delivery of review samples directly from mattress manufacturers, which do not involve a promise of editorial coverage in exchange. When we know a specific product is of interest to readers and a sample is not available, WIRED will purchase the product.
What Does WIRED Do With Mattresses After Testing Them?
Simple—every bed gets donated. This allows the team to give back to the community (after all, everyone needs sleep) while clearing space for the next mattress.
