Expert Review:
Courtesy of AllergyBuyersClub.com
In the past 50 years, many mattress manufacturers have cut costs by producing mattresses made out of polyurethane foam enclosed in vinyl covers. Synthetic mattresses can emit toxic fumes that can enter your child's respiratory system and bloodstream. For baby's new lungs and fragile immune systems - this is not recommended. Synthetic mattresses retain body heat and will raise the body temperature resulting in a lighter state of sleep.
The natural fiber crib mattresses we sell are the best we could find on the market to give your child the right start in life. Your baby will breathe more easily during sleep. The wool used in this mattress also insulates the body and draws moisture away from the baby to provide a deeper drier sleep in hot or cold weather. These mattresses provide your child with the most healthy, safe sleep available. Wool is a natural flame retardant and is also dust mite and mold resistant. This mattress and all its components are tested and certified to be toxin and chemical free!
4.5-inch natural Latex core is surrounded by a 1/2-inch layer of organic wool and covered with organic cotton damask. Firm support with soft quilted surface, safe for newborns, comfortable for toddlers. 100% Non-toxic and chemical-free.
