Where these two actually differ
- We flag Volatile organic compound (VOC) off-gassing from polyurethane foam, Coating degradation and microparticle shedding over time and Polyester cover pilling and synthetic fiber shedding on the Sleepyhead and not on the Avocado Green Mattress.
- The Avocado Green Mattress is organic cotton where the Sleepyhead is Memory foam, polyurethane foam, washable polyester cover, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
