EOS Classic Organic Vegan Mattress

I now have the vegan EOS and it was too soft. The top layer of coils was changed to medium. My lower back hurts in that spot. Still sunken. What should I do? I have MCS and don’t know what other mattress will not smell and not hurt my lower back. I weigh 105 pounds

I have the vegan EOS without latex. Just coils. At first it was way too soft. Then they changed the top layer to medium coils and the ares around my lower back gives me pain every morning. I don’t know what to do. Place a piece of something under that one area to make it not sink in?

Very happy with the EOS classic; 3" firm latex over 8" firm coils. ~ $2,700.00 on sale. Super comfortable.

you and the rest of the mattress buying market are confused, don't worry. "clean," "eco," and "natural" are unregulated marketing terms. any brand can use them. they mostly mean nothing. certifications are the only thing that actually matters, but even then you have to know which ones matter. **GOTS** on the finished product = the entire mattress, not just the cotton input (many brands say they use GOTS cotton, but that doesn't exclude them from using chemicals during processing/manufacturing). so the finished product has been verified organic through the whole supply chain with GOTS. **GOLS** = the latex specifically is certified organic Dunlop. only Dunlop latex qualifies, not Talalay. **GREENGUARD Gold** = independently tested for VOC emissions. this is what addresses your chemical smell concern directly (but not the latex smell, I'll get to that). **CertiPUR-US** = created by the foam industry to certify its own products. not a non-toxic standard. researchers found lead in mattresses from four CertiPUR-US certified brands. ignore. brands I find myself consistently recommending to clients: Naturepedic, My Green Mattress, Happsy. all hold finished-product GOTS, GOLS, and GREENGUARD Gold. Naturepedic was the first mattress brand in the world to earn UL 2884 PFAS validation in 2025. on the latex smell: yes, certified organic latex has a natural rubber smell that fades eventually. completely different from the chemical off-gassing in a foam mattress. not gonna sugar coat it, you'll smell it, no doubt, but latex smell and chemical smell is very different. watch out for Saatva, it has an $11.5M false advertising settlement and an active PFAS lawsuit over their crib mattresses. and Nectar uses fiberglass as a fire retardant. both are all over affiliate review sites because they pay well. My Green Mattress Kiwi is the best budget, along with Happsy Organic Mattress. Naturepedic EOS Classic with layer swaps if the firmness isn't right is what I recommend to mostly everyone. I'm a personal product consultant, happy to answer any questions.

Which Naturepedic were you looking at? I have no affiliation with any brands but I've done a recen deep dive for a client on mattresses and Naturepedic, Happsy (naturepedic child co.) and My Green Mattress all came out on top for various reasons and it wasn't close. Avocado is a distant 4th and I can get into why if you care. But I don't know what if any are available in Canada.

No prob- Avocado has the best certifications of any mattress on the market, GOTS, GOLS, OEKO-TEX Class I, MADE SAFE, EWG Verified, GREENGUARD Gold. The problem is certifications verify materials, not build quality. ConsumerAffairs shows 79% one-star reviews with premature sagging as the #1 complaint. BBB has 121 complaints in 3 years. Warranty claims get denied, they blame you. There's also a 2024 CPSC recall on their mattress pad protectors and a pending 2025 fake discount lawsuit. That being said, I use an Avocado pillow I picked up from Costco, and I'm happy-ish with it. It was inexpensive, it works, but I find myself constantly moving the filling around altho their actual model from their lineup has much more filling. Naturepedic has the same core important certifications, zero lawsuits that I found, zero recalls in 23 years, and NapLab scored them 9.02/10. On the PLA concern, I get it, I'm a cancer survivor and transitioned to a non-toxic lifestyle so trust me that's a concern of mine as well.. If it's a consolation on the PLA- it's derived from non-GMO sugarcane, not petroleum, so it's not conventional microplastics. But their organic latex models don't use it. For Canada specifically I'm not sure on availability or shipping costs for any of these, worth checking directly with each brand.

"organic" on a mattress label means almost nothing without certification behind it. that's the whole greenwashing BS with mattresses and other furniture and dozens of other products. what actually matters is GOTS on the FINISHED product (not just the cotton input), GOLS on the latex, and GREENGUARD Gold on the finished mattress. those three together mean the entire product has been independently verified, not just the inputs. here's what you should look at- Naturepedic, My Green Mattress, Happsy, and Avocado. everything else is either partial certifications or marketing language such as "natural" and "organic" as you've noted. Avocado has some documented issues with performance and customer service and lawsuits, so I've been recommending people away from Avocado lately (I personally use an Avocado pillow...). comfort... latex runs firmer than memory foam so there is an adjustment period. most people coming off a memory foam mattress find the first few weeks feel really, really different. def take advantage of the long trial periods that My Green Mattress and Naturepedic. smell... certified organic latex has a natural rubber smell that fades in a few weeks if you're lucky, but if you really push your nose in and take a huge whiff you could smell it beyond a few weeks. I don't find it intoxicating on my pillow anymore, but it's definitely a distinct smell. completely different from the chemical off-gassing you get with a conventional foam mattress. the sites recommending Saatva and Nectar are affiliate sites getting paid to recommend them. Saatva has an $11.5M false advertising settlement and an active PFAS lawsuit. Nectar uses fiberglass as a fire retardant. both are off my list entirely. happy to discuss further, reach out if you want

I love my Naturpedic! They sell kids mattresses too.

I have the EOS Classic with mini coils. I drove to a store to try out the various beds. I also looked at Avocado, but liked Naturpedic better.

No latex. My best friend has a latex allergy. I can’t have latex around as she will go into anaphylactic shock. I like my beds on the firmer side, but not too firm. If possible it is best to go to a store to try it out. I drove about 5 hrs to LA on Black Friday a few years ago to find a new bed.

naturepedic eos classic. not only does it come compressed and rolled, but it's in components. you have your encasement... the cotton and wool cover with a giant brass zipper that holds it all together. then inside goes the support coils on the bottom and latex or microcoils as the comfort layer on top. for a king, both the support layer and comfort layer pieces are split, so if you moved, you could just disassemble it all and take each piece down the stairs. the component design also mallows you to tweak the feel during the first 90 days for free during their layer swap period. I have the no latex version which subs microcoils for the typical latex and love it.

my naturepedic eos classic will be 10 years old in the fall and still feels like new. no perceivable dips or sags. full expect it to be a 20+ year mattress. that said, I think a large part of its longevity is that I have the latex free version that replaces the usual latex with microcoils. so the mattress is basically all spring, so nothing to wear out. imo , this is the ideal mattress and it been the most comfortable mattresses I've owned.

I just got this same mattress in the same firmness levels and also on sale 😆. I love it so far, very comfortable, except that the latex sleeps hot and I might have to switch to the micro coils, have you had this issue at all? I’ve had a memory foam mattress before that felt the same, amd the most recent mattress I had was an all cotton filled shikibuton. That was the coolest sleep I ever had but the mattress was just too hard. I miss the coolness of it 😭

I just got a Naturepedic and am in love. I sleep on my stomach mostly, but also my side and back so I needed something supportive that has some “give” for when I’m on my side. I got firm coils and firm latex on top and it feels wonderful. The only problem is I sleep very hot so I have to switch out the latex for micro coils 😭 Hopefully it feels as good as the latex, a shame my body temperature is so off.

Naturepedic. You can swap out layers for free for the first 100 days until you get the best comfort combo. Latex and coils. Best mattress I’ve ever had, worth the money. They frequently have sales so I would just wait for the next sale for 20% off.

I have a Naturepedic mattress with the top layer being latex and I’ve been waking up sweating, it is not cooler, at least for me. I’ll be switching to microcoils soon. It is quite comfy though which is a bummer that it sleeps so hot.

Take a look at Naturepedic Classic EOS. You can do split sides. They are really high quality beds and have great customer service. He can even get just all coils - support coils and microcoils with no latex if he wants. Aside from the sciatica, anyone who sleeps on their stomach needs a firm mattress or they will end up with back pain because with a soft med, their back will hammock.
