Natural Mattress

I bought a birch mattress a year and a half ago. It was a little firm for me as a side sleeper but I got a sleep on latex topper and the combination is perfect so I'm happy with it.

Birch has a good natural mattress for kids.

Birch Natural is a genuinely good pick for allergies, latex coils cotton and wool are all naturally hypoallergenic so you're in good territory there. The main difference with the Luxe is just the added pillow top and extra latex layer so if you want more surface cushioning it's worth the upgrade, if not the regular is fine. If you want another certified option to compare maybe check out Brooklyn Bedding's EcoSleep Luxe too, organic cotton and natural latex with eco credentials so it checks the same boxes at a different price point.

True that they are not GOTS certified, but they have certification from GOLS and GREENGUARD GOLD certified. I think this argument mixes up product-level certification with material-level certification. A mattress doesn’t need the entire finished build to be GOTS-certified to still use legitimately certified organic wool, cotton, or latex inside it. Birch Natural is still a great organic latex mattress. Full GOTS on a completed mattress is rare because the certification covers the whole manufacturing chain.

RIGHT! I had the same experience. Mine smelled like a tire shop lol. The Birch natural one barely had any scent, just like cotton and air

Ugh same thing happened to me. Bought this “eco” mattress that was supposed to be organic but smelled like hot glue and chemicals for weeks. I finally caved and got a Birch Natural Mattress, no weird smell at all.

My recent birch natural mattress was a disaster. It was so poorly made and it was so annoying to have to pay $100 to dispose of their poorly made mattress, it wasn’t even the correct size! I would avoid them at all costs. We got an engineered sleep mattress (the duo) to replace it with and it’s amazing so far!
