The Birch Plush Organic topper is made by Birch, a natural mattress brand that is now sold on the Helix store. It is a 2-inch layer of organic cotton and latex that Birch says gives plush, deep body contouring and is cool and breathable to maximize airflow for temperature regulation. It carries GOLS and Greenguard Gold certification and is made without polyurethane foams, fiberglass, pesticides or formaldehyde. Birch says it is heavier than typical toppers, so it stays put without straps. Like other Helix products, it is assembled in Arizona, ships free in the US and comes with a 120-night trial; the warranty is 1 year. The price is the problem: a queen was $426 with a 20% code when we checked, against a $532.50 list price, roughly double Avocado's latex topper. You pay a premium for the organic cotton build and the Birch name.
