Naturepedic Waterproof Fitted Crib Pad, 28x52

Naturepedic is known for having high-quality, chemical-free, environmentally friendly products, and this mattress pad does not disappoint. My son has wet and spit-up on his bed repeatedly, and the mattress (also a Naturepedic) has always been fully protected. It washes very well. It fits tightly, does not smell (like vinyl pads do), and is worth the extra money. I would recommend buying two, however, as these pads take a long time to dry (even in the dryer), which speaks well to their water-proofing, but it is more convenient to be able to put another pad on the bed immediately than to have to wait for this one to dry. LOVE it, would recommend it to everyone.

I've used this pad for over a year in my child's crib. It is soft and thick and fits well. It is waterproof as claimed. (If you're curious about the waterproof coating they use, here is some info:)

Big downside: This thing takes forever to dry after washing. Far longer in the dryer than anything else in the laundry. And if you don't get it very dry, it quickly mildews. Once I left it overnight after washing in the machine and it already smelled of mildew the next morning. Twice I attempted to air-dry it after washing and ended up with a mildewy pad that I had to re-wash and rinse with added vinegar.

If you live in a very dry climate and can hang it in the sun, it might be okay. But in our more humid climate, all I can do is put it in the (energy-hungry) dryer for a looong time. Bummer.

I bought 2 because I always need a back up. I have now washed these several times and they have stayed soft and true to form/fit. It is soft and I feel great knowing it's not filled with chemicals.

We have the Naturepedic crib mattress, as well as the Naturepedic waterproof crib pad. We have the full mattress pad on the mattress, then the portacrib pad over that (we have portacribs at both grandparents house, so we bring this pad along). I would say that unless you are buying the full-sized crib waterproof mattress pad to protect the mattress from dustmites, I would recommend the portacrib pad. The portacrib pad is much easier to take on and off since it doesn't have the elastic corners to deal with, which means you basically have to take the mattress out of the crib to put it back on. The BEST combination would be to have your mattress, the portacrib pad, and zip sheetsThen you never have to take the mattress out of the crib to change the sheets.

I was hesitant to spend so much money on a mattress cover, but was happy to see a big difference in quality from other mattress covers I have owned. The material was much thicker and more substantial. Knowing that the cover does not contain any harsh chemicals brings me peace of mind since my newborn daughter will be sleeping on it for many hours. I was surprised by the odd odor the cover had when it arrived. I washed it in All Free and the odor came right out. It made a lot of fuzz in my washer/dryer the first time I washed it so I'm a little worried about how it will hold up haven't yet washed it again to know how that will go.
