Sleep Gifts - A Present That’s Universal and Everyone Will Appreciate

Is there someone on your list who’s hard to shop for? Maybe your husband has every kitchen appliance and gadget in existence. Your girlfriend has all the latest tech gadgets – and you don’t even know what they all do. Gift cards can be generic and impersonal. They’re useful, sure, but you can do better. Instead of settling for a common gift certificate, choose a present that’s universal and that everyone will appreciate – a sleep gift!

We’ve compiled a guide to the top eco-friendly sleep gifts; use this guide to shop for everyone on your list. From kids to co-workers, you’ll find green, fair trade, organic and socially responsible gifts that your friends and family will love to open.

Pillows

What could be more well-received than a soft, fluffy, environmentally conscious pillow? We’ve chosen the best of the best for our eco friendly sleep guide. Here are our favorites.

Type of Pillow | Cooling Foam Pillow
Eco Friendly Pillow Benefits | Eco-Friendly, Socially Responsible
Pillow Material | Gel-Infused Memory Foam
Pillow Sizes | 18.5" x 11.5" x 3.5"
Pillow Price | $55

Luxor Linens is one of our favorite resources for finding organic, eco-friendly and natural products. The company’s also known for its quality craftsmanship, with Luxor Linens products being found by some of the biggest names in luxury hotels. The Ritz Carlton and Savoy Hotel are two examples of hotels which prefer the quality of Luxor Linens bedding.

For our Luxor Linens review, we’ve chosen the Fresco Cooling Contour Pillow. This gel-infused memory foam pillow is curved to fit your body, relieving the aches and pains ordinary pillows can cause. Cooling gel keeps your temperature regulated, meaning you’ll stay cool all night – without flipping your pillow! The Fresco Cooling Contour Pillow makes a great gift for anyone on your list. It’s designed for both home and travel, so gift a pair to your jet-setting friends.

If you’re not sure what type of pillow your gift recipient prefers, the Live and Sleep pillow offers an excellent happy medium. The medium-firm pillow is designed to contour to the shoulders and neck, meaning a comfy night’s sleep for any position. An open cell technology promotes air flow and keeps every sleeper cool – naturally. A stretch knit cover is soft and breathable, and all materials used in the crafting of the Live and Sleep pillow are safe and non-toxic.

Each Live and Sleep product is created using materials that are CertiPUR-US certified. That means they’ve endured rigorous testing for VOCs, chemicals and are safe for the environment and your health. We’ve chosen, too, to include a Live and Sleep review because they’re a “give back” company. Live and Sleep donates a portion of all proceeds to the National Alliance to End Homelessness.

The last of our pillows on our sleep gift guide is the Pacific Coast Feather review. What we love about this company is the care they take to ensure products are hypoallergenic, crafted with the utmost attention to quality and are filled right here in the United States.

The StayLoft pillow from Pacific Coast Feather is filled with 600 fill power HyperClean down. HyperClean is a process used by Pacific Coast Feather to wash goose down, removing dust, allergens and dirt from feathers. What’s left is a clean, hypoallergenic and fluffy feather that’s as soft as a cloud. The craftsmanship of this pillow is second to one, too. The StayLoft Pillow is constructed with internal baffles that help your pillow retain its shape. Choose this pillow for the person on your list who tosses and turns in her sleep.

Mattresses

If you’re looking for an eco friendly sleep gift that’s a little larger than a pillow, why not choose a fair trade, organic or green mattress? Here are our three favorite mattresses that fit that description.

Type of Latex Mattress | All Natural Latex Mattress
Latex Mattress Benefits | Handmade, GREENGUARD Gold Certified, OEKO-TEK Certified, GOTS Certified, GOLS Certified, MADE SAFE Certified, eco-INSTITUT Certified, Climate Neutral Certified, Made in the USA

We just adore Avocado Green Mattress. There’s nothing artificial or unsafe about the company’s products; they carry certifications from GREENGUARD, OEKO-TEK and eco-INSTITUT, so you know you’re getting fair trade, chemical free and non-toxic products when you buy from the company.

The natural wool in the Avocado Green Mattress is New Zealand Joma wool that’s naturally antibacterial and moisture-wicking. GOTS certified organic cotton comprises the mattress cover, and the mattress itself is filled with 100% natural and sustainable GOLS Certified latex foam. In other words, the Avocado Green Mattress is as natural a gift as you can give. Every MADE SAFE certified mattress is handmade in the USA; check out our full Avocado Green Mattress review for a complete company overview.

In fact, a 100 night sleep trial ensures that the recipient of your sleep gift is getting a full, restful night’s sleep every night.

Memory foam used in the creation of Live and Sleep Memory Foam Mattresses is CertiPUR-US certified to be safe and toxin-free. The “Luxury” style of the Live and Sleep mattress offers medium-balanced support, meaning it’s supportive of every sleeper, regardless of their favorite position. Aside from being a eco-friendly, socially responsible company, we love the fact that Live and Sleep products are affordable. The price point of Live and Sleep products means environmentally friendly bedding is available to everyone, regardless of budget.

The last mattress we’ve chosen for our sleep gifts guide is this Loom & Leaf review. As with other mattresses on the list, it’s a natural, eco-friendly alternative to the traditional mattress – and it’s a memory foam construction so it’s oh-so-comfortable!

Loom & Leaf offers options to customize your mattress, so you can choose between a firm and an ultra-firm feel. Whichever you choose, you can be confident that your mattress is made in the USA from American sourced foam. The foam is CertiPUR-US certified, which means you can trust that there are no harmful chemicals emitted from the mattress. The organic cotton mattress cover is Guardin treated. Guardin is a botanical, natural and antimicrobial treatment that helps keep your mattress clean and free from bacteria. In short, the Loom & Leaf mattress is a great choice for an eco-friendly sleep gift.

Wool is one of the most sustainable and beneficial materials used in the bedding industry. It’s anti-microbial, moisture-wicking and, of course, natural. We’ve included a PlushBeds review on our top sleep gifts guide because the company uses wool that’s also cruelty-free and sourced in the USA. Every purchase of PlushBeds products benefits scholarships for students declaring eco-friendly majors.

The PlushBeds Natural Luxury Mattress Topper is handmade in the United States and is 100% all-natural. The wool topper naturally keeps moisture away as you rest, and helps to regulate your temperature, too.

Memory foam conforms to your gift recipient’s body, reducing muscle tension and joint pain.

Lazy One also works with eco-friendly suppliers to ensure its products are earth-safe – they even use recyclable hang tags!
