nice feel, but back pain

Decided to try the avocado green mattress with pillow top because it was rated #1 on consumer reports and my in-laws love there's. The mattress feels nice and well made and has a nice bounce to it. However I was waking up with hip pain, avocado was happy to send out a 1" topper to try to make it softer. This helped with the hip but now I am waking up with pain in my back and knees. The company has no # to call, they will not respond to my emails or chat enless I pretend to be a new customer. This has me furious.

Beautiful mattress, just not right for me

this mattress is really a work of art. It looks beautiful with the unbleached cotton cover (I got the vegan) and even smells great. I really love it. But, it's completely uncomfortable. I fall asleep on my back and move to my side in the early morning. My shoulders hurt and my back does too. Also, my neck hurts unless I stop using my pillow and just use a rolled up blanket under my head instead. I don't want to return it b/c I still love it, but I have to. I wish they made a softer bed (I tried the mattress alone, and the mattress with both the firm and plush topper - I then tried a memory foam gel topper (YUCK) and a featherbed (extremely painful after a few nights) - nothing worked.) I bought a Keetsa Tea Leaf Classic, which is too firm (and will return), but discovered that the bed is pretty good with the Avocado topper (even the firm) on top - that's the best I've slept in the last year (I discovered that a little bit of good quality and not too soft memory foam is okay for me). But I'm still going to look for a mattress that's a better fit than either the Avocado or the Keetsa. Maybe a Saatva Lux Firm or a Next Alexander Hybrid Lux Firm. Will be very sad to see the Avocado go, however. The Avocado customer service is great. I still highly recommend the Avocado if you sleep on your back and like a firm bed (or if you're more than 150 pounds)

Sad Shoulders

We got the pillow top believing that it would be a plush top. No. It's just a soft top on a pretty firm bed. I do like the support, but I'm a side sleeper and have had SO MUCH shoulder pain since I got this bed. My lower back and hips don't hurt as much because the support is good. But, my shoulders hurt all day, now, and they BURN while I'm sleeping. We've experienced excellent customer service up to this point, but we're getting ready to take advantage of the 100 night sleep trial and return it. I feel sad about it. I love the idea of organic mattresses, hand made in the USA, but my shoulders are way more sad than I am, so it must go.

Numb and misleading

We purchased the pillow top king. The mattress seems pretty good but we have both had more numbness in our arms. The mattress also caused our box springs to start squeaking then I found out from Avocado that you can’t use a normal box springs which they did not make clear at all.

Official Response
Hi Bob, Thanks so much for your review. My apologies for the lack of clarity around using a boxspring. It definitely can be used, but can be a tad bouncy, as you mentioned. In general we recommend an unyeilding, supportive surface like a platform bed or even an adjustable one. You could also get a "bunky board" to place in-between your mattress and the boxpsring to cut down on bounce. While it can take a few weeks to get used to a new mattress, we'd love to hear from you if you are still unhappy, so we can make it right! Please feel free to jump on our website chat so we can assist you.
