What is the mattress made of? Is it non-toxic?

It's garbage. It reeks horribly... I believe it's got a polyurethane wrapping, which is responsible for the majority of the off-gassing. Big, giant notice stating that it meets CA flammability requirements, AKA it's chock full of flame retardant chemicals. Not at all non-toxic.

I don't remember what it is made of, Sorry. It is one of the most comfortable pillows I have ever slept on. Both my daughter and son have one, and I steal theirs all the time. Even an 11 year old would love one!!

I'm not positive but I'm pretty sure it's all natural. The only way to really know is cut the mattress and test it in lab. However, it had zero off gassing and my bed buddy is allergic to synthetic latex(no problems as yet). Great mattress and I'm happy with it. It's thinner than the super expensive latex or regular coil comp but it works perfect for us. I have it on a platform bed.

The most outer layer of the mattress is vinyl. You should check out this page (see below what they say about this specific mattress) and you can follow their suggestions on better options https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150355883242799 As an example, top-selling Sealy Baby Firm Crib Mattress uses a vinyl cover, coated with proprietary antibacterial STAPH-GARD. Despite stating on their website that their product "does not contain any harmful chemicals" and "does not contain toxic fire retardants," they refused to provide information about how they meet flammability standards or clarify what chemicals make up STAPH-GARD. Vinyl manufacturing requires use of toxic chemicals, and chemicals must be added to vinyl to make it flexible.

Don't know, sorry! It doesn't seem as plasticky as a lot of kids sleep stuff though - feels very natural and kind of heavy. There are no flame warnings on the labels, so I'd say the material is okay for me.

This product is made from safe non toxic materials. The manufacturer specifies that this dildo is made of rubber.

It's made of food grade polyurethane (according to their website). No waterproofing is organic, but you have to decide if the trade off is worth it for you. Honestly, I'm still back and forth on this myself! From my research, this does seem to be the best (or one of the best) organic waterproof mattress pads out there.

It is not a problem. This man who did all the research on polyurethane and sids had all his research based on cotton only. Therefore he cannot vouch for anything beyond the limitations of his study. As a concerned and well educated mother, I made sure his bedding was free of plastics or other materials likely to off-gas. (But not necessarily 100% cotton.) If you do nothing but wrap this mattress, you can feel confident you have eliminated at least one source of possible sids risk.

This is the best option I could find. No PVC, lead, etc. Some mattresses say "soy" but if you investigate, they only contain soy, like 1% of the total mattress. I'm so glad we got this mattress. It was worth the extra money (Mother in law bought it as a shower gift) to have something safe next to my baby's nose/mouth for over 12 hours a day. It also has square corners, so no/less risk of him/her stepping into a hole in the corner of the crib created by round corner mattresses. It really has a feel of quality to it vs. other mattresses I've worked with and seen at the store.

I emailed the company: both mattresses (bassinet and travel crib) are made from "polyurethane foam with a waterproof polyester cover". This entire crib is made in China. Also from the company "They do not contain any PVC, phthalates, heavy metals or flame retardants."

I don't know what it is made from. It is not squishy. It is not hard plastic. And, it is not comfortable. But, I'm an adult and I bought it for myself so it is a tad too small and a tad too hard for me. It's probably fine for a child. Mine never minded sitting on anything hard judging by all the time they spent playing on the floor...

I'm not sure of the type of material, it is almost as soft as silk with teary cloth top. The covers are larger than the mattress and box spring, which made it much easier to use. What sold me was it is certified against anything biting through the material and it can be machine wasted and heat dried. The others I purchased from Walmart is plastic and can not be put in drier on high heat, plus they were not certified bite-through resistant. My children are highly allergic to dust mites as well as other biting bugs. No more skin irritations since I put the protectors on the box spring and the mattress. I am so very please with the product and would highly recommend for anyone with allergy issues.

This mattress is neither. When people talk about a "foam" mattress, they generally mean polyurethane foam or soy foam (which is basically polyurethane foam) or memory foam (which is also basically polyurethane foam). Then, when they talk about an "innerspring" they're, of course, talking about steel springs. Steel innersprings don't have the chemical issues that come with polyurethane foam, but they are heavier mattresses and many people need something more lightweight so that it's easier to lift and change the sheets, etc. Lullaby Earth solved this dilemma by using food-grade polyethylene (not polyurethane) to make the support core. Food-grade polyethylene meets the FDA standards for food contact. It's favored by all the environmental groups. This design provides a safer baby mattress and still is lightweight and easy to lift. As well, this design doesn't have the high flammability of polyurethane foam, and no chemical flame barriers or chemical flame retardants are necessary in order to meet the government flammability standards. As a side point, Lullaby Earth is also free of other materials commonly used in baby mattresses, like vinyl, phthalates, antimony, perfluorinated chemicals, pesticides, GMOs, etc. "

I don't know. I don't see that info listed on the tag. It just says "This mattress meets the requirements of 16 CFR Part 1633 (federal flammability (open flame) standard for mattress sets) when used without a foundation." I don't have the packaging anymore... not sure if that even said anything about chemicals.

The mattress IS foam. The tag says, This mattress meets the requirements of 16 CRF Part 1633 (federal flammability (open flame) standard for mattress sets) when used WITHOUT a foundation. THIS MATTRESS IS INTENDED TO BE USED WITHOUT A FOUNDATION

I do not see that this lists what it is made of however, it does state that it is non-toxic and environmentally safe

To the seller:What do you have to say about this comment left in the reviews of this mattress?The company told me that it contains SOY FOAM. This is information I found on soy foam. It is best to ask questions to make sure of what you are getting. It does sound comfortable which is great, BUT if you are looking for pure latex mattress, DON'T BE FOOLED, THIS MATTRESS IS NOT MADE OF 100 PERCENT PURE LATEX.
