Top of the Line, For Less...
By Natural Mother
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.[...].[...].[...].

My son LOVES his mattress!
By abm
I really wanted to create an organic sleeping experience for my son despite feeling pressure from family and friends that I was going a little overboard both on concern and on the budget. But I think that since babies spend so much time sleeping their first few years, it is so important to spare their immature systems the toxic chemicals. Learning that off-gassing could be a contributor to SIDS really made me take this issue seriously. I even attended a "create your own organic nursery" seminar and this was the mattress that got the highest marks.The most rewarding thing about this purchase though is how much my son LOVES his bed. He's 18 months now and while not all around the world's easiest child, he is SUCH a happy sleeper. He looks forward to "night night" and wakes up 12 hours later all smiles. I can just tell his crib is his little haven and it makes me so happy. I wish my bed made me that happy but I'm so glad his nighttime is formaldehyde and chemical free- for that I can rest much sounder.We're expecting baby number two soon and you can bet we'll be getting another coco mat.

Best baby mattress you can find
By Citizen John
This is simply the best baby mattress you can find, unless you get a thicker one made the same way!We didn't get our coir baby mattresses for our twins from this vendor, but coir mattress prices have been coming down and I expect will become a big seller on Amazon.There is nothing better than coir, mainly for comfort. Coir is incredibly strong, especially when treated as was the coir that went into this mattress. If this mattress were thicker, I'd compare it to a college competition level wrestling mat only with a little crunch to it. This mattress is breathable.A lot of people don't know it but coir is a material that is naturally not a habitat for dust mites, it is naturally free of bacteria and fungal spores and it's not attractive to parasites. It has long been used in India and Sri Lanka for comfort and health, and has been produced for years in Mexico and several other countries.We're very pleased with our coir baby mattresses.
