Avocado Construction

• Avocado has a 100 percent organic cotton cover on both of its models. The pillow-top model is 13″ thick, while the model without pillow-top is 11″ thick.
• Avocado’s bounce comes largely from its top foam layer, which is made of natural dunlop latex. This material also provides good pressure relief.
• The bottommost layer contains individually wrapped coils zoned to provide support where it’s needed. This supportive layer makes the mattress great for sleepers who are heavier.

Leesa Sapira Hybrid Construction

• Leesa Sapira Hybrid’s 1.5″ of breathable foam on top gives the mattress some bounce, but not quite like latex does. This layer also helps ensure cool sleeping.
• The second layer is 1.5″ of memory foam, which gives the mattress a contouring quality. This layer is partly responsible for the more balanced foam feel of Leesa Sapira Hybrid.
• The bottom layer is comprised of a layer of springs sandwiched by 1″ layers of stabilizing foam. This supportive layer helps give Leesa Sapira Hybrid its great edge support.

Construction Differences and Notes

• Both have coils in the support layer
• Leesa Sapira Hybrid uses memory foam, while Avocado uses latex.
• Avocado uses more natural materials and also offers an optional pillow-top.
• Leesa Sapira Hybrid conforms to contours a little better because it is a little softer.
• Avocado has more bounce and is a little firmer and more supportive overall.

Firmness and Feel Differences

Leesa Sapira Hybrid is a little more slow-moving and has more of a balanced foam feel. Avocado is more springy. Both are relatively firm, but Avocado is a little firmer.

Motion Transfer Differences

Both do a pretty good job of isolating motion, but Leesa Sapira Hybrid’s memory foam gives it a bit of an edge. Because they’re both decent at isolating motion transfer, both are good options for couples.

Pick Avocado If …

• You want to go natural. Avocado uses organic cotton and natural latex, making it more of a “green” mattress than the Leesa Sapira Hybrid is.
• You like bounce. Avocado’s surface has more spring to it. Some people prefer more bounciness than others, so this is a matter of personal preference. If you like a springier feel, then Avocado could potentially be the right choice for you.

Pick Leesa Sapira Hybrid If …

• You want a balanced foam feel. Leesa Sapira Hybrid feels more like a foam mattress and conforms to contours better.
• You need edge support. If edge support is a key deciding factor, go with Leesa Sapira Hybrid. It has possibly the best edge support of all the mattresses that I’ve tested.
