Avocado Green Pillow (Side-Sleeper shape) review

Avocado's Green Pillow is the natural-materials pick, and the version that matters here is the Side-Sleeper shape. Avocado describes it as ergonomically curved to cradle the head and fill the space between ear and shoulder, keeping the neck in neutral alignment. Both shapes use the same fill: ribbons of GOLS certified organic latex mixed with GOTS certified organic kapok fiber inside an organic cotton cover, with no polyurethane foam or polyester. The pillow arrives overfilled and medium-firm, so most side sleepers will remove a handful of fill at a time until the height is right, and an extra fill bag is included if you need more. Avocado lists Greenguard Gold, OEKO-TEX Standard 100 and MADE SAFE certifications, a 100-night trial and a Good Housekeeping two-year limited warranty. The feel is springy and heavier than a typical pillow. Our checker could not read a USD price on the page, so see the store for the current price.
