Where these two actually differ
- We flag Fluoropolymer/PFAS in waterproof coating (unconfirmed), Polyurethane backing degradation and off-gassing, Microplastic shedding during washing and Coating adhesion loss and leaching into fabric on the Coop Home Goods and not on the Avocado Green Mattress.
- The Avocado Green Mattress is organic cotton where the Coop Home Goods is Polyester/polyurethane waterproof backing (unspecified treatment), which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 55 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Avocado Green Mattress is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the Coop Home Goods grade, at 42% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.
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 →
