Everything you need to make the call - who each one is for, and who should skip it.
Go for it if you...
You want organic latex and a flip-it firmness option
You are comfortable with a brand that discloses most, not all, of its build
You want GREENGUARD Gold emissions testing without paying the top-tier organic price
You specifically want no foam at all, just coils and organic fibers
You want firm support for a young child
You are fine adding a waterproof protector
The main thing to know
A clean organic-latex mattress with a natural-wool fire barrier, GREENGUARD Gold, and a handy flippable firm-and-soft design. What keeps it just below the top picks is disclosure, not materials: the brand doesn't say what adhesives hold it together, and its cotton and wool aren't certified organic the way its latex is.
A foam-free organic mattress that passes every safety check we run, built on coils and organic cotton with an organic-wool fire barrier and no glues. The things to know: it is firm, it is not waterproof, and it is priced at the higher end.
Skip this if you...
You want every material third-party certified
You need a built-in waterproof surface
You want a softer feel
You need a built-in wipe-clean surface
You are shopping on a tight budget
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
