Avocado Mattress Return FAQs
Are Avocado mattresses returnable?
Yes. Most Avocado mattresses come with either a 100-day or 1-year trial. A 30-night adjustment period is required, and a $99 return fee applies.
Can I return a mattress after opening?
Yes — as long as it has been used for 30 nights and is in good condition. The mattress must be clean, odor-free, and suitable for donation. If not, the return will be denied.
What is the Avocado return policy?
Avocado allows returns on most products within the trial period, provided the item is in like-new condition. Each product type has different trial lengths. A $99 return fee applies for mattresses, and furniture has a 20% restocking fee.
What’s the trial period for Avocado mattresses?
Green, Vegan, Latex, and Luxury mattresses come with a 365-night trial. Eco Organic and Kids models have a 100-night trial. All require a 30-night minimum before returning.
Can I return a product bought from another retailer?
No. Avocado only accepts returns for items bought through their website or official retail showrooms. For third-party purchases, you must contact the retailer directly.
What items are final sale?
Final sale items include clearance or discontinued products, deeply discounted items (50%+), adjustable bases, and certain accessories. These are not eligible for return or exchange.
How long does it take to get a refund?
Refunds are processed within 1–3 business days after Avocado receives and verifies the return. Your bank may take up to two weeks to complete the transaction. Refunds go back to your original payment method.
Do I need to rotate the mattress to qualify for return?
Yes. You must rotate your mattress monthly for the first 6 months, then every other month. Failure to do so may void the trial.
Are shipping and setup fees refundable?
No. Fees for shipping, White Glove Service, insurance, and Alaska/Hawaii surcharges are not refundable. Only the product price (minus return fees) will be refunded.
Can I return more than one product per type?
No. Avocado only allows one return per product type per household. For example, once you return one mattress, you can't return another later — even if it’s a different model.
