M. Davidson - thanks for your reply. I am also considering the Naturepedic Organic 150 mattress and glad to hear it fits well.

Hi Tootsie, we got this crib and the Naturepedic organic 150 mattress. Fits well!The Kalani's metal support is one solid piece & therefore cannot sag in the center.

Has anyone tried the Safety 1st Heavenly Dreams White Crib Mattress with this crib?

I would also like to know the answer to that! You posted a few months ago... did you make a decision? How'd it work out?We are looking at the naturepedic organic matresses and in particular, wondering if we should get the 252 coil or if the 150 coil is OK with this crib. A description of the mattresses suggests that 150 is fine if the mattress support on the crib is very supportive (i.e. wood slats) vs. something that can sag (wire mesh)... Where does the Kalani's metal support fall on this continuum? Very supportive or can it sag?

Hi, can you please tell me which brand and model mattress you settled on and how it fits?

I got the oak color, and it's a nice warm tone- not orange and not pink. It matches our white oak hardwoods nicely. My baby isn't born yet, but I like the solid construction of the crib, and I think it'll be good. The Naturepedic organic 150 mattress does fit well. I also like that there is no chemical smell with either the crib or mattress. Now for bedding!

I think we've had ours...2 yrs??...would have to check amazon purchasing history to know for sure but I'm sure it has been at least 2 yrs. It was purchased around Thanksgiving for a guest bedroom in loft,anticipating Christmas holiday visits from our sons. Around February, hubby and I moved up to the loft because it was much warmer than our bedroom. And we ended up staying there. So the Textrade full inner spring pillow top mattress has had 2 adults, weighing from 150 to 220, sleeping on it since then. It has remained luxuriously cushion-y and supportive for over a year now. No sags, no bumpies. I think we've had ours...2 yrs??...would have to check amazon purchasing history to know for sure but I'm sure it has been at least 2 yrs.

I had the same problems as Patrick Calahan and Kristin1724. I emailed back and forth with the manufacturer all day today, and was informed "there will still be a gap on the toddler rail." I've since reported this crib to the CPSC (http://www.saferproducts.gov/Default.aspx) because I believe that the design of the converted toddler bed with the rail gap is unsafe. If I had know about this gap before choosing the crib, I would never have chosen the Babyletto Mercer. I now need to purchase a toddler bed for my 22-month-old.

It fits pretty well with our DaVinci Kalani 4-in-1 crib. I don't think there is any sizing problem. Maybe good to also check your crib.

I would recommend using a dust ruffle because you can see in between the mattress and drawer. It's not like a traditional crib where the dust ruffle will hang on the floor but it still looks nice.. and once mattress is perfect! It's not too high and not too low, it's right where an infant mattress should be but you could always try it yourself depending on what you like. I absolutely love this crib and I don't think you'd regret ordering it

We used a thicker mattress for comfort, but once the baby got more active the thicker mattress allowed her to stand a little taller in the crib. We simply dropped the mattress frame down further. We've not experienced any further issues, still love this crib. I hope that helps you!

The XL-twin that we own will not fit the length of the bed, width is fine, but length is a no go. I had hoped on using my old XL-twin but it looks like repurposing an older mattress isn't going to happen - had to buy two regular twins but it does save on sheet costs!

I bought Safety 1st Heavenly Dreams Crib Mattress and got delivery yesterday not sure how exactly it fits onto the crib. i will put everythign together this weekend and may update you if you want.

You will need a crib mattress for that one, and this is a mattress for a pack n play. They are much different in size. On a side note... I have the same crib for my baby who just turned one and the crib is missing an excessive amount of finish on the inside of the crib. The finish is not durable at all. But I do love the crib and would buy it again.

I'm with you all...just turned 8 months, sleeps like a lamb in the RnP, but is so active that she can't sleep in her crib. I'm all for letting her cry herself to sleep at this age, but we live in an apartment and I'm trying to be aware of our upstairs neighbors. Ugghhh...this is frustrating. :(

We have two of these mattresses for our twins. They fit snug in the cribs. We have not had any issues with the mattress flipping up when they are standing up in the crib.

Hi, we are adopting and need a travel crib for the new born baby until we can fly home. Do you think this would be a good option. We do not want to use the hotel one due to germs and want something clean and safe for the newborn. Thoughts?

I totally had trouble finding sheets to fit!! Since it's so much thicker than cheapo mattresses, it was a challenge. What I found worked GREAT were the Circo brand jersey knit sheets from Target. They are so stretchy (and soft!) and fit great. I also have one Pottery Barn sheet that was given to us that happens to work well, and a Dr. Seuss flannel sheet found on Amazon.com that was labeled "deep pockets." These all work well - Id recommend the Circo jersey knit or any that say they are deep pocket - these tend to be more expensive higher quality sheets. They will all say they fit "standard" crib mattresses, so the dimensions won't do much good - stretchier sheets fit much better than standard woven sheets. Good luck! It was worth the search in order to have the mattress!

I purchased this crib for my daughter's new baby that is only a 9 days old. They are moving in the near future and it hasn't even been put together yet..he is sleeping in a bassinet for now. We have not purchased the crib conversion rail yet.

I'm not sure why, but ours does not fit snuggly at at all. It's very frustrating. I have about a 2 inch gap on both sides of the crib! I rolled up blankets to fill in the gaps, not ideal or really safe at all.

It perfect for an 18 month through almost five year old-depending on how big you child is. My daughter started in hers at 2 and will be 3 soon and is still very comfy in it! I used the mattress from her crib. That's the only size that fits. Only bummer to it is it won't hold adult weight and we constantly have to catch ourselves from sitting on the edge of it :)

I'd go with this mattress: CRESCENT MINI CRIB 50 COIL MATTRESS.It's the one DaVinci recommended when we purchased our mini crib. there's a 1" gap difference on one end but isn't noticeable. All other measurements are REALLY snug. Special note: Finding sheets was a nightmare cause most mini/portable crib sheets are 1/2" too short (in diameter). I just got a twin size flat sheet and fold it tightly around the mattress on all sides. Works really well.
