PossibleVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) from polyurethane foam
PossibleMicroplastic shedding from synthetic cover fibers
PossibleOff-gassing from synthetic foam adhesives or glues
Where these two actually differ
- We flag Heavy metal accumulation in natural latex and Latex allergy sensitization on the Avocado and not on the Casper.
- We flag Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from polyurethane foam, Microplastic shedding from synthetic cover fibers and Off-gassing from synthetic foam adhesives or glues on the Casper and not on the Avocado.
- The Avocado is organic cotton, natural latex, coconut coir, recycled steel coils where the Casper is Polyurethane foam, cotton/poly cover, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Avocado is the one to buy.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
