Organic Blue Fitted Sheet Review

Organic Blue Fitted Sheet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received one sheet as a gift and the other I bought myself. Both do their job as sheets and work well for my baby's crib. The only downside to these is they aren't really soft (not rough either though), but don't buy them expecting the sheets to feel like 400+ thread count sheets.

Natural Mat Coco Mat Review

This mattress is GREAT!I had originally bought a regular crib mattress from BabiesRus.It seemed really good for the price - firm, but not too uncomfortable for baby.Then, I started researching cribs and stumbled upon information about cribs and especially crib mattresses containing chemicals that leach formaldehyde.The mattresses are worse, though, since it is the law that they be flame retardant.Many chemicals are put into these mattresses, including roach killer, arsenic and antimony, and solid petroleum.Babies spend SO much of their time in them, in VERY close proximity.There is even research to suggest that a leading cause of SIDS is these chemicals that the babies ingest.

So, while on the hunt for a healthier mattress, I saw many so called "organic" products.Naturepedic in particilar markets an "organic" mattress.But as with food and dairy industries, organic does not always mean so.Per the USDA, a product only has to contain 70% organic ingredients to use the phrase "organic" on its packaging.So, the mattress might be made with organic cotton, but there are still other components.And unless you have a doctor's prescription for no flame retartants, or have a mattress made with wool, a natural flame retardant (which this mattress has), you're still going to get the bad chemicals.So, for the same price as a Naturepedic with the bad chemicals, I got this mattress (found it on sale through another website, even though I'd have gladly paid Amazon's price!).It is made entirely of the following:A core of organic coir (coconut fibers), organic wool, and 2 unbleached cotton covers.The wool acts as a water barrier itself, so you don't have to use horrible vinyl mattress pads.(Vinyl is one of the most toxic plastics known).The wool is also anti dust mite.The mattress provides ventilation and maintains temperatures to stay warm or cool, depending on the needs.

The mattress fits perfectly in my Pali Paula crib (even better than the first mattress I purchased, since that one was a little short on the sides).It is firm, yet springy.This will be GREAT for use as a toddler mattress, since it will still be comfortable for a younger child.All in all, I believe I found the BEST crib mattress out there.This, coming from an "organic OCD" mother, as my husband calls me, is a very high praise.[...].

This blanket is a great size for playing on the floor with a newborn/infant. However, after washing it only a couple of times it isn't very soft. I really liked the idea of an organic cotton blanket, but would not buy this blanket again if I had the choice.

Argington Organic Bam Bassinet Review

Argington Organic Bam Bassinet
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's a decent bassinet, but at $359, the wood is very cheap and light, and they have a warning sticker that needs to be removed. (It warns you to assemble it correctly). It's huge and of the cheapest possible material, so it cannot be removed without a tool. Of course, we ended up scratching the finish while trying to remove it.

So the manufacturers saved something like 6 cents by choosing a warning sticker that take a half hour for the end user to remove. Just pay for a decent sticker that actually comes off.

Anyway, in summary: overpriced. Annoying sticker.

Not only is this blanket a great swaddler, super soft, and antibacterial, but bamboo fabric helps to protect babies from the suns harmful rays.We used ours on a trip to Hawaii with our two week old and it worked beautifully.The jersey material is perfect for warmer temperatures and the velour blanket is especially warm and cozy when it's colder.As others have said, it comes beautifully packaged and makes a great gift.Also check out the hats and changing table covers.

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I realize trying to get inexpensive organic cotton products for baby is a bit of a shot in the dark, but I intentionally did NOT purchase the cheapest organic cotton cradle sheet out there hoping that the quality of these would be better than that. I ended up disappointed that these sheets, while very soft jersey material, are as thin as a 10-year-old T-shirt and started pilling up after the first wash. They look very poor and cheap when the cradle is made up. I was hoping for much better, but the fact is they will work.

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).

Great quality--soft and cushiony. But you can't machine wash! I tried it on gentle cycle and a lot of wool fuzz escaped that had to be vacuumed. It says you can dry clean but why bother spending so much money on natural materials only to clean it with chemicals? I'd give this product 5 stars if it held up in the washing machine. Hand washing these would be a huge project!

Summer Infant Bedding Basics Swirl Fur Blanket Review

Summer Infant Bedding Basics Swirl Fur Blanket
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This blanket just came in.I purchased it as a replacement for the second "back-up" "nug nug" George brand Pink Swirl blanket that we recently lost.It looks like a nice blanket. It is very soft pink swirl faux fur on one side and satin on the other with satin trim.We haven't had a chance to "test drive" it much, but I wanted to comment on here immediately that it says right on the tag on the blanket 100% polyester, as it is advertised on here as 100% cotton. I was skeptical as I didn't see how they would make the trim with cotton, and even the pink swirl fur as usually all the ones I have seen are polyester.I didn't order it based on the cotton, but I don't want someone to order it because they want cotton, so I wanted to mention it. My daughter is snubbing it in favor of her old beat up one, but that is typical for a toddler. I am sure she will bond with it eventually.
