Best Cribs and Bassinets for Quilted

easy to purchase mattress pads, bumper pads and sheets for - be sure to designate "mini crib" not portacrib.

we use the crib with the da vinci 50 coil mini crib mattress (i threw out the thin mattress pad the crib comes with).

we will replace the mattress pad in about 2-3 months though.

i gave it 4 stars and not 5 because initial set up was a bit difficult(we definitely used the directions), the mattress pad is a little hard (i wish it was softer) and the sheets are expensive.

everything is secured including the mattress pad in both the bassinett position and the playard position.

i solved the problem by putting a quilted multi-use pad on top of the mattress underneath the fitted sheet.

the mattress is too firm, so i bought a softer organic mattress and an organic mattress pad.

instead, we've been able to wrap larger blankets around the mattress pad, securing them underneath the edges for a tight finish.

i finally bought an egg crate foam mattress pad and cut it to size and then turned it upside down so he could sleep on the flat side.

we put a waterproof mattress pad down and the sheet on top and that seems to give the mattress a little extra cushion.

the mattress pad idea sounds great (per the other reviewer).

they also ripped in the corner when trying to get them on the mattress pad (due the the shrinkage, most likely.) but, if you want to use the cosleeper and want extra sheets, i believe this is your

the only annoying thing is that the mattress pad that comes with it is so flimsy as to be practically unusable.

some have complained about the mattress pad being to thin for the baby's comfort.

i did purchase the 2.5" mattress pad available on amazon.com after reading reviews, and am i glad i did!

the mattress is really thin, a better description would be "mattress pad".
