Sealy Baby Ultra Rest Mattress Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When my husband and I started looking for crib mattresses while I was pregnant with our twins we had NO idea what to look for. Thankfully, like always I started doing searches on Amazon to read reviews and that is where I learned about not having a mattress that was too soft. After much searching & reading we picked out 3 we liked best, one cheaper than this, one considerably more expensive & this one.

The cheaper mattress was TOO soft & did not have many springs. My husband thought it seemed like a fine mattress to buy UNTIL I was easily able to take my hand and squeeze the sides of the mattress together, top touching bottom. Then I explained to him that once a baby is old enough to stand their weight would crush the mattress just like I did and that is unsafe. Plus babies are supposed to sleep on a firm surface, not soft. After my demonstration my husband understood.

Next we did the same test with this mattress. You could not easily squeeze the sides of the mattress together, even my husband tried. It had a lot more springs than the cheaper one, it was firm but also comfortable. We also liked that it is basically water proof. And the plastic does not make any noise, nor is it loose at all.

We stopped our search there and purchased 2 of these. My girls are almost 1 year and their beds show no signs of wear, no indentations, nothing wrong at all. My girls even hold onto the sides of their crib and jump and the mattress does not sink at all even when they jump at the very edge. My girls sleep all night in these so they must be comfortable.

I don't think you need to spend an arm and a leg in order to get a safe & comfortable mattress. Don't get one so cheap that it is flimsy, doesn't have many springs, that you can easily squeeze the sides together or that the plastic covering is loose. This one is perfect.

It also fits perfectly snug in my girls cribs and every sheet we've used fits perfectly.

Colgate Natural I Crib Mattress, Ecru Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great mattress.Firm, yet comfortable.It is rather heavy (compared to a foam mattress).It is not waterproof in any way, but that has not caused us any problems so far (we have used it for almost 2 years now).We use a washable waterproof cover over the mattress.Would definitely buy it again, if needed.It appears to be made entirely of natural coir fiber, covered with a cotton batting (I don't think there are any chemical fire retardants added, which some say may contribute to SIDS).

Colgate 2-N-1 Innerspring Crib Mattress, White Review

(More customer reviews)My baby slept very well on this mattress. It has a smooth surface so it is easy to keep clean. When it was time for our child to sleep in a toddler bed, we simply turned it over to the less firm side and it was comfortable.

Colgate EcoSpring Ultra II Crib Mattress, Ecru Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After weeks of research and pulling out our hair, my wife and I decided to go with this mattress.We just received this mattress yesterday and are very happy with it.

Just some things you might want to consider to make an informed decision.

A.Coils.More coils mean a firmer mattress.More coils also mean more weight.The type of gauge steel also matters.Even though this mattress has 150 coils, the 13.5 gauge steel used (vs 15.5 on most mattresses) makes it quite firm while still being supportive and comfortable.

B.Materials - the more organic and renewable materials in a mattress, the higher the price (usually).Does organic matter to you for something that may never touch your baby's skin?If so, expect to pay more.Do you want an all coir mattress?Expect to pay $400 or so.

C.Allergens - Any mattress that uses coir or coconut can be an allergen.If you have a history of tree nut, soy, or other allergies, watch what you buy.Most "eco friendly" mattress contain allergens.

D.Waterproof - If you want something washable and pretty much impervious to stuff, your main choice is vinyl.Some mattresses have other types of plastic and are substantially more expensive.Otherwise, get a good mattress pad.

E.Breathability - Most are breathable to some extent.Those that are covered in plastic are less breathable.My wife and I found mattresses covered in plastic unacceptable.

D.Weight - Someone needs to change those sheets.If buying a heavy mattress, make sure there is someone to help change sheets, especially if you have a history of C sections.Foam mattresses are lighter than innerspring.In some cases, the weight difference is substantial.

E.Price - How much should you spend?Is your baby going to care about brand names, etc. (the answer is no...that is a learned trait)?Are you going to have to work more to afford this mattress?If so, save your money, get a cheaper mattress, and spend that extra time working with your baby.

F.Firmness - Make sure the mattress is firm and supportive.You should only have a sheet and a mattress pad at most on the mattress.Some mattresses feel mushy and springy.I would not recommend those.If it feels reasonably firm like a slightly underinflated football, it should be fine.Don't get caught up in this.I found that name brand all-soy foam mattress were unaccptably springy.

G.Foam vs. Innerspring - You will do fine with both.Be leery of the steel used, edge support, etc.There are pros and cons for each.Foam is generally firmer, cheaper, and lighter.Innersprings are heavier, offer better edge support, and have more selection.Both can sag, have bad smells, etc.If baby likes to stand on the edge of the bed along the rail, keep in mind that foam mattresses do not have edge support.

Pros:

1.Mattress is quite firm but supportive.In terms of firmness, this is one of the firmer mattresses we have seen.It relates favorably to a Stearns and Foster crib mattress and Simmons mattress.It is not anywhere near as firm as the Colgate foam mattress, it is substantially more supportive.

2.This mattress is supportive.We could not find anything that said just how firm a mattress needed to be.

3.No off-gassing from the mattress.Odor is similar to that of new non-organic clothes.

4.Despite not having any holes, mattress is somewhat breathable.We were concerned about foam mattress trapping our daughter's heat too much.Heat and airflow are probably the biggest concern for SIDS next to firmness of mattress.This mattress appears to be breathable through the fiber due to the coir and cotton layers.Coir is extremely water and air permeable.

5.Fit is good.We cannot place more than a finger in between each side of the bed.It is not too tight so you cannot easily take out the mattress.We have a Stanley American crib and are fairly happy with the fit.Make sure to measure first.We noticed some mattresses are as much as 1.5 inches off standard.Make sure your crib can support it with sheets and a mattress pad.

6.Edge Support.We were concerned that our daughter might be injured on a cheaper mattress or a foam mattress.Foam mattresses do not have edge support.This mattress has good edge support (9.0 gauge steel) but not fantastic.If you want fantastic edge support, look for a lower gauge number for edge support.Remember, you may sacrifice comfort for doing so.

7.Packaging was minimal with just a box and the plastic wrapper for the mattress.

8.We got a FANTASTIC price of under a benjamin and a half TOTAL.

9.Finish - There are no lose threads or any seam issues we can see.
Cons:

1.Cotton cover is not waterproof or organic.Organic does not matter to us much.Renewable items do and this mattress has it.If you want organic, be prepared to spend more or get a mattress that is less comfortable.We are planning on getting a protect-a-bed mattress pad to prevent nasty staining and such.It has worked fantastically on our bed as it is both breathable and waterproof.The zippered kind should also limit allergen risks from the coir.

2.Internal Coir fiber is a potential allergen (think tree nut).Not sure what foam is made of.

3.Mattress is heavier than a foam mattress.

4.This mattress is not advertised as having a "comfort" side.Comfort sides add cost to a mattress.Most publications agree that this is a useless gimmick that makes little if none difference to the child.To some, however, this is a con.

Overall - a nice mattress, some allergen concerns, breathable, very firm and supportive, good price, lots of renewable material, not waterproof, not organic

Note 1:The weight measurement of this listing is not accurate at 50+ pounds.With box, it is closer to 25 pounds.

Note 2:Our daughter is still inside mommy so review could change if she hates it.I will post a picture if I have time.

Dream On Me Visco-Pedic Crib and Toddler Bed Mattress, 100% Bedbug Free Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I are expecting our first baby any day now and needed a firm mattress for our crib that converts to a toddler bed.I really liked the idea of the 2-in-1 mattress and heard the foam was definitely the way to go for mattresses. I read a ridiculous amount of reviews on different baby sites and ended up adding the Dream On Me to our registry at a baby superstore.Eventually after all of our baby showers, no had purchased it but I checked amazon and found even with coupons, buying the mattress here was a much better deal than the baby superstore.
It is so lightweight, I think it only weighs 8 pounds, and fit perfectly into our convertible crib!The two opposite sides have distinct differences for newborns and toddlers.We don't know if our baby likes it obviously, but the two of us are extremely happy with the quality and price.

Colgate Classica III Foam Crib Mattress, White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We found a the sister mattress to this one in a store.It had a blue cover and no vent holes...usually for hospitals.We happened to check on-line and found this one.I called the manufacturer and they said that the white covered one was the SAME mattress, but intended for residential (and a little cheaper, but only due to the cover).The cover gets washed almost daily in a hospital and has to be able to hold up to that.

Ok, why this one over other foams?We liked the density, weight, price and vent holes.

Density--It has a high density (very firm) side for newborns and a lower density (little more give...softer) for toddlers.SIDS is a BIG concern these days and a BIG thing we parents can do is put newborns on a FIRM mattress.

Weight--Changing sheets in a crib is necessary to remove the mattress to do so.This is very lightweight and easy to remove.The snug fit in the crib is very necessary so your little one doesn't get a leg/arm caught down beside the mattress.

Price--Compared to an interspring or other foam mattresses, Amazon had the best price on these mattresses.There are only a few select stores that sell them.Also, I called the manufacturer.It is a small Grandfather/father/son business.This is ALL they do and they do it well and VERY resonably priced.You can't get a mattress from them for an adult...they specialize in babys and kids.

Vent Holes--Since I mentioned it I'll expand a bit.Vent holes allow the mattress to breathe (like when they jump on it).Our daughter (almost 2) is starting to jump in the crib when she wakes up and sees us.It's cute and I'm really glad we have those vents.

We are VERY pleased with this mattress AND with Amazon's price for it.I couldn't get it from the manufacturer, BUT I did talk with one of the sons when I called them!This is a VERY good sign of a VERY good business and a quality product.

VERY VERY Happy parents...VERY happy daughter...VERY happy household.

Sorry this was so long, hopefully it was helpful.
Daddy

Sealy Soybean Foam-Core Crib Mattress Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This mattress seems to hit a nice median point in terms of being earth friendly, safe for your child, and reasonably priced.I did some research and found that this little mattress was able to provide the best safety from harmful chemicals in the middle price range.It was(is) neither too expensive nor cheap.I think it was $150.00.It does have a plastic casing which makes it not totally safe, but better than the average.My baby girl sleeps well on it and I sleep better knowing she is as safe - as safe as I can make her without buying a $400.00 mattress.
