We're pretty sure the brand Sealy needs no further introduction. It is, after all, the crib mattress that more babies sleep on than any other brand in the USA.
We're not exaggerating - Sealy is one of the leaders in sleep technology and is the best-selling crib mattress brand in North America. Its crib mattresses are well-known for their safety, quality, comfort and premium support to infants and toddlers worldwide.
But today, we're going to talk about its Soybean Foam-Core Baby Crib Mattress - its most popular and bestselling model.
This crib mattress is unlike others.
First of all, instead of the usual polyurethane foam, it uses a percentage of natural and renewable soybeans grown in the USA to create a foam core that provides the right amount of firmness and comfort.
As a result, it is super lightweight, exceptionally durable and firm, and has higher breathability than other crib mattresses. In fact, we think it is one of the best breathable baby mattress in the market at this price point, with others like this and this being at the higher price spectrum.
Such firmness is perfect for newborns and infants as they need a harder, secure and flat surface to sleep on. Yet the added cushioning provides just the right amount of softness for better comfort.
For peace of mind, know that the firmness, durability and crib fit are tested and passed the American Society for Testing and Materials Crib Mattress Standards (ASTM).
Not just that, but the foam used throughout is CertiPur-US Certified foam, meaning it is made without phthalates, lead, mercury, formaldehyde, PBDES, TDCPP or TCEP flame retardants that may be a concern in non-certified foams.
Let's now talk about its cover. This cover acts as a moisture barrier to keep messy liquids from seeping inside the mattress, helping to prevent mold, mildew and odors.
How it does this is by having lock-stitched binding, which also prevent allergens from clinging to the mattress so you can rest assured baby is always sleeping on a hygienic and comfortable surface.
One thing worth mentioning is that the Sealy Baby mattress, measuring at 51.63” x 27.25” x 5”has a square corner design to ensure a snug fit in both USA standard cribs or toddler beds.
It is so, so important that you get the fit right because done otherwise, you run the risk of SIDS and trust us, you do not want that.
Lastly, the Sealy Soybean Foam-Core Baby Crib Mattress is fully designed, engineered and proudly made in the USA of U.S. and imported parts.
There are not many of these left in the market, and this one here provides lifetime warranty on workmanship and materials.
For a dual-use baby crib mattress with features like that of the Sealy Soybean Foam Core, we're actually pretty surprised at its price point. Cheaper than other top rated baby crib mattresses like this and this, we would say the Sealy is reasonably affordable.
With all the awards under its belt (winner of the Women's Choice Award for America's Most Recommended Mattress & Bedding for 4 consecutive years), you can be sure the Sealy Soybean Foam Core is one top baby crib mattress.
