I am very excited to share my thoughts and findings on all three of the Brentwood Home mattresses for infants and toddlers. Across the board, these are high quality mattresses I would be happy to give or receive as a baby gift.

Lucas is excited to sleep on the Dandelion mattress by Brentwood Home!

First of all, I like that these mattresses are made in the U.S.A., and that the company is focused on environmental impacts of their products.  All three of the crib mattresses are environmentally friendly, are free of chemical fire retardants, and feature a waterproof cover on both sides.  They will also last for years, so they are a good investment to pass along for subsequent babies in a family to use.

Here’s Lucas showing off the Poppy (left) and Wildfern (right). You can see they are the same thickness.

If you want a cross of eco-friendly, cost-effective, health-conscious, and comfort, I would recommend the Poppy mattress. It is made of hypo-allergenic, anti-microbial materials, so it is aimed at all of us health-conscious parents out there. It does feature an infant side and a toddler side of the mattress, but when feeling and smooshing both sides, they really feel about the same. The Poppy mattress comes rolled up tightly in a box, and quickly expands to its size. I like that there isn’t too much sound when I moved around on the mattress; the top layer doesn’t make much noise at all.

Here I am unboxing the Dandelion and Wildfern mattresses.

If getting a very “green” mattress is the most important thing to you, Brentwood Home markets their Dandelion crib mattress as the most eco-friendly mattress that you can find, so that would make it easy for you to pick.  With a price tag of $235, it is the middle of the line of this company’s mattresses.  When I walked my hands over this mattress to evaluate the squishing sound it made, this mattress was definitely the loudest of the three in this company’s line.  If you have a little one who is a challenging sleeper, I think minimizing the noise that the mattress makes when he or she tosses and turns is a positive thing, so this is my least favorite of the three.  That being said, it has a minimal environmental impact and when a sheet and mattress cover are on top of the mattress, the sound wasn’t super loud.

Here I am doing a side by side comparison of the Dandelion and Poppy mattresses.

The top of the line, the Wildfern, features an  organic coconut husk layer as well as an organic latex layer. This mattress sells for $325.  It is also a dual sided mattress, with the more firm side for the infant and the more plush side for the toddler, which is the same feature that all three mattresses offer.  The difference between the infant and toddler side is most obvious with this mattress, which is a good thing!

Overall, I would recommend the Poppy mattress. I am impressed by the materials used in these mattresses. As you would expect, these are very high quality items and any new mom would appreciate any of the three of them!
