Hiccapop perhaps need no further introduction from us - just how many of us here have had sworn by this pregnancy pillow during our pregnancy journey?
Likewise, its take on the Baby Crib Mattress does not disappoint too. As soon as it is launched, it swiftly became the No. 1 Release product in the crib mattress department at Amazon and let us tell you, it is deserving in every bit.
First of all, it is one of the cheapest memory foam mattress in the market.
If you have done your research, you will know that memory foam mattresses are pricier than normal foam crib mattresses (though certainly not as pricy as an organic crib mattress).
So for the Hiccapop to have such a user-friendly price point, it is truly a one-of-a-kind, rare to come by opportunity. And it doesn't compromise on the quality department too, if that's what you're wondering.
For one, it is a dual-sided crib mattress. Just like how convertible cribs are meant to last through the years as baby grows, a 2-in-1 crib mattress has different firmness on each side to calibrate the ultimate support for both infants and toddlers.
As you can see from the picture below, Hiccapop has two layers:
White layer: infant side. Combines the firmness that’s critical for baby's safety with gentle foam support.
Blue layer: toddler side. Additional layer of memory foam for softer and premium comfort when toddlers no longer need a hard surface for support.
Dual-sided crib mattresses like this is the optimal design for a growing baby's developmental needs.
It is more economical because you do not need to buy two separate mattresses in a span of just a year or two. Just flip it over to the plush, softer side when baby is ready.
Also, the dual layers give Hiccapop some extra thickness at 5.4 inches when most are around 5 inches only. If you'd like a thick crib mattress, you will like this extra feature of the Hiccapop.
[P.s. For a truly and best thick crib mattress, this will be right up your alley.]
Another thing that we like about the Hiccapop Baby Crib Mattress is that the cover that comes with it is jacquard type.
This is a specially woven type of fabric that is ultra-soft, waterproof and stain resistant. It creates a fireproof safety barrier between the mattress and your baby's skin and keep the mattress anti-bacterial and hypoallergenic.
On top of that, Hiccapop uses the lock-stitch binding method to resist liquids from seeping in, thereby preventing mould, mildew and odour as well as bed bugs and dust mites from infesting.
In terms of its fit, this memory foam crib mattress is a universal fit for all standard sized cribs.
The rounded corners and superior edge support create a snug fit in them so there is no risk of unsafe spaces or say, lost pacifiers at the sides or corners of this crib mattress.
While it poses no fitting problem for toddler beds as well, do note that this cot mattress is not meant to be used in playards or mini cribs.
You can, however, use it as a soft play pad on the floor by itself as pictured left.
Last but not least, let's look at the Hiccapop's safety standards.
This baby crib mattress is CertiPUR-US certified, meaning it has met the most rigorous and comprehensive standards for content, durability and emissions.
100% free of phthalates and lead, you can rest assured this is a safe crib mattress for your little one.
To sum up, the Hiccapop is:
And oh, one more thing - the Hiccapop Baby Crib Mattress is comparatively more breathable than other foam crib mattresses.
It may not be as breathable as this and this here (arguably the best breathable crib mattress in the market) but for a memory foam crib mattress (and one at this price point!), this is certainly a plus point that makes it stood out from the rest.
