What should I look for when buying a crib mattress?
I’m new to the crib-buying thing!
And I know that there are a lot of different mattresses out there. What are some things I need to look for when purchasing a crib mattress and how much do people typically spend?
Thanks!
Organic Crib Mattress
Is an organic crib mattress worth the cost?
We’re looking at the naturepedic 252 coil organic crib mattress. It’s 0 (0 if I can use the 20% coupon at buybuybaby).
I want to get the best for my baby– wondering if this mattress is worth it, or if anyone knows of another organic crib mattress out there that is a little more reasonably priced?
They do offer a lower grade one (150 coils) for 9 (which would be about 0 with the 20% discount). Good point about the foam vs. coil mattresses. I did not think of it that way.
Lauren- it’s the type of plastic that worries me. This mattress is covered with food grade polyethylene– but perhaps there is a lower cost alternative out there that offers the same thing?
Doug- that is a very good point. Thank you!
I haven’t really been able to find one online for under 0 though.
If all else fails, I may just get the less expensive naturepedic one for 0.
