Choosing between Awara & Happsy?
A good, green mattress that’s kind to the earth, and kind to your wallet is hard to come by. Awara does both, as well as being handcrafted for an incredible night’s sleep.
An Eco-Friendly Mattress: But at What Cost?
Happsy have made one 10” inch mattress, and hoped that keeping things a little sparse would be improved by the fact that they’re doing good for the environment. While we’re not going to dispute the fact that their mattress is environmentally conscious, we just don’t think you need to compromise on luxury in order to be good to the planet.

What Makes Awara Special?
We wanted to use only the best materials when making our mattresses. We thought about everything. Being conscious of our impact on the environment, finding new ways to give back to the communities and ecosystems we work with, and creating a mattress you can feel good about buying were really important factors in our decision making process. We sought out partnerships that would make a difference.
- The New Zealand farmers who care for the sheep, and spin the breathable wool that’ll help keep you cool.
- The farmers in Sri Lanka who care for the rubber trees used to make the premium Forest Stewardship Council-certified Dunlop latex that provides Awara’s exceptional comfort.
- Trees for the Future, the non-profit that plants 10 trees in Kenya, Senegal, Uganda, or Tanzania for every Awara sold.
The quality of these partnerships, and the materials we use to build Awara, gives us the confidence to offer a Forever Warranty on every mattress, a 365-night trial, and to promise you a great night’s sleep at a fair price. Sleep well, knowing you’re doing good for the planet
Awara: Good for you. Good for the environment.
So, what are you getting with Happsy?
- You’re getting less trial. While the Happsy mattress offers a 120-day trial period, the Awara gives you 365-days. Because the way you sleep during a heatwave is different from how you sleep during a blizzard. Take the Awara home for a full year – and determine your comfort in every season.
- You’ll be getting less warranty, too. Happsy’s warranty is 10 years longer than the industry average, but they still can’t beat forever. We’re confident enough in our materials and methods to offer you a lifetime guarantee – giving you peace of mind… forever
- Only Awara has the Euro top, providing cushiony support, targeted pressure relief, and natural temperature control by using natural ingredients. Our cover is also made of 100% New Zealand wool, which is some of the best quality wool around, and provides natural heat wicking properties to help you keep cool. Happsy doesn’t have a Eurotop at all – just a cotton cover with a little wool batting.
The Awara Mattress
Plush Euro Top with New Zealand Wool
This plush Euro Top is covered in smooth organic cotton and cozy 100% organic New Zealand wool. So you stay cool and dry as you sleep.
Breathable Natural Dunlop Latex
4 inches of Rainforest Alliance certified natural Dunlop latex contours to your curves and supports pressure points and joints.
Premium Coil Support Core
Individually wrapped 8” coils improve breathability and reduce motion transfer. Even if your partner tosses and turns.
Easy-Move Base with 4 Reinforced Handles
A beautiful cotton blend cover wraps this supportive base. Plus 4 sturdy handles to make any move a breeze.
Happsy Mattress
Cotton Cover & Wool Batting
A thin layer of wool batting tops this mattress, sitting between the latex layer
Latex Layer
Happsy says they’re using certified latex, but it’s not completely clear what certification this is. At 2 inches, it’s half the amount of latex of the Awara.
Spring Layer
8” pocketed springs. 1 inch less than the Awara, so less breathability, and less motion transfer.
Thin Layer of Cotton Filling.
Awara Doesn’t Compromise
365-Night trial | Premium, environmentally conscious materials | Comfort & Support | Needle Tufted by Hand |
We believe you should be able to try your mattress in all seasons. We all sleep differently in a heatwave than in a snowstorm. If at the end of your 365-night trial, you decide Awara isn’t a perfect match, return it with no hassles. We’re always here to help. | Everyone should have access to sustainable options. We’ve chosen sustainable, earth-friendly materials that don’t break the bank: Certified latex, sustainable New Zealand wool, and stainless steel springs. Premium sleep doesn’t compromise on the things that matter. | With a hybrid mattress like Awara, you get all the support of springs with the comfort of latex. The springs provide responsive, dynamic support for your shoulders, back, hips and legs. The comforting, cooling properties of latex relieve pressure points, and conform to your body to give you unparalleled comfort. | Awara mattresses feature our distinctive, soft, needle-tufted rosettes made from our New Zealand wool. By pulling ribbons through the full mattress in up to 36 locations, we bind the layers together — without the use of toxic solvent or water-based adhesives, improving durability and stability. |
For sleep that weighs lightly on your conscience without compromising on comfort: Choose Awara.
“Something about this mattress has completely changed my sleeping life.”
Awara supports your body, your conscience, and your favorite sleep-style.
Hybrid mattresses are a little different to Memory Foam. They are a little firmer: instead of “sinking in”, you settle down, and the mattress supports every curve.
