Hello, dream mattress! Our new eco-friendly mattress, the Organica from @amerisleep is here & I don’t think I’ve been this excited about a home upgrade in a loooong time! Since we’ve been sleeping on the Organica for the last month, we’ve NEVER slept more soundly. It’s such a game-changer! Shipping was also so fast & easy, Organica is made with all natural latex & eco-friendly materials so we can feel good about what we’re sleeping on every night & it sleeps cool & comfortable, just the way we like it. If you can’t reach me don’t worry, I’m just napping 😴 #amerisleep #amerisleeppartner #mattressinabox #madeintheusa #fiberglassfree #sleeporganic #bestmattress #sustainableproducts
