View Full Version : Crib Mattresses
instant_oatmeal 02-28-2008, 10:13 AM Soooooooooooooo is there really any difference as far as how safe they are? I mean I want to be sure my baby is safe but I really don't want to spend $200 on just the mattress when the crib is going to be like $400 too. Would I be ok going for the $80 mattress? :confuzzle
letgo0527 02-28-2008, 10:25 AM I think ds has a cheap mattress, it's nice and firm, we've never had a problem with it. As long as it's not too squishy it should be fine.

I'd google the one you're wanting to purchase. There are many places that have customer reviews and/or recalls....
We bought one with a built-in vibrator. LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!
rosebud* 02-28-2008, 11:03 AM all new mattresses that are sold ( new) are within current safety regulations. I bought the el cheapo 40 dollar one and nothing bad has happened. they all worked just fine.
CAmom4721 02-28-2008, 11:03 AM We got ours handed down to us from a family friend and we've had no problems. It is nice and firm and we put a mattress pad from babies r us on it and it's just soft enough but still firm. Works great for us. Good luck.
Caimbrie 02-28-2008, 11:38 AM My mom spent $90 on the one we have it it's great. I had purchased a $50 and it was awful.

I saw one of those the other day. I wouldn't pay that much :lol I'm using the one my mom got when I was pregnant for cameron, it's still in almost new shape.
MelissaMc424 02-28-2008, 11:39 AM We bought our mattress at Sears, because we had giftcards.. she had a serta ( I think.. it was either sealy or serta) and cost about $80.. Our crib had a built in vibration setting and a mobile with lights and music...

Ashnbri 02-28-2008, 01:12 PM I wouldn't worry too much about the price either...We got ours at walmart for like 50$. We just put it on the floor and pushed on it to make sure it was firm enough...I think his is a sealy too :thinking
Mommy2Bailey 02-28-2008, 01:13 PM I got Bailey's from Walmart. It was either 39 or 49. She likes it just fine.

This is the one I have decided on. I heard you say you loved it before. Does your son still use it? Does he still like the "vibration" parts of it, or was that just for when he was really young?
MIKOSWIFEY 02-28-2008, 07:56 PM As long as your mattress is firm, and it fits the crib correctly then there should be no danger. :) It really doesn't matter what the price is as long as you get the right size and firmness.
Treysgirl 02-28-2008, 08:39 PM I bought a $40 one and it's been working great.
