The pillow-top version of the Avocado mattress has a fairly low level of motion transfer. Due to the extra latex layer, and the individually pocketed coils, the movement of one partner should disturb the sleep of the other. Pocketed coils are not like interconnected steel coils. They compress individually rather than take all the interconnected springs down with them. Motion transfer should not be an issue with the Avocado mattress, with the pillow-top or without!
