According to our testing data, the original Awara mattress is more likely to be “worth it” than the Awara Premier, based on performance score and price.
Mattresses | Score | Score Rank | Price/Queen | Price Rank |
---|---|---|---|---|
Awara Natural Hybrid | 8.69 | Top 48% | $849 | 42% Below Average |
Awara Premier Hybrid | 8.64 | Top 46% | $1,299 | 11% Below Average |
The Awara Original has a higher score than the Awara Premier as well as a lower cost. For these two reasons alone, the Awara Original is the better value of these two mattresses.
The Awara Premier has a higher price, but the performance score was also above average. Considering the Premier is 11% less than the average queen-size mattress ($1,455), the Premier still has excellent value.
