The sheets are MADE SAFE certified, which is an independent third-party certification that guarantees that Avocado's products meet the highest standards of quality and safety.

Mattress

When it comes to crib mattresses, firmness and size are essential. The AAP recommends using a mattress that is firm and fits snugly and doesn't leave an indentation when you lay a sheet on it. The mattress must also be the correct size for the crib, and it should stay in place--even after your baby is old enough to leave it.

You should also determine whether the mattress has chemicals that may harm your child. Look for a mattress free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that emit an unpleasant chemical smell.

The top mattresses did not sink this means they provide enough support to keep your child from falling out of the mattress while sleeping or suffocate. Some of the mattresses we tried have a removable, machine-washable cover that is waterproof and zips shut. This makes cleaning and maintaining them easier.

Crib Rails

If you decide to purchase them on their own, make sure they meet the safety standards. For instance, they should be free of missing or loose screws, brackets or other hardware. They should be strong enough to support your child's weight, but not too thin. They should also be able to be secured in a secure way so they can't be taken away by your child.

The crib rails need to not only be strong and sturdy, but they should also fit within the frame of the crib. This will stop the mattress from becoming fragile, which could cause harm to your baby. Be sure to measure the width of the crib frame before purchasing a crib rail. There are a few slight variations in the sizes of the crib. The dimensions should be no more than three fingers.

Also, make sure that the crib rails do not contain any cutouts that are decorative or other adornments. These can pose an suffocation threat.

Crib Hardware

Some aspects of crib design are purely aesthetic or subject to personal preference, however, other aspects--like the style of slats or whether the crib can be converted into an adult bed--can have a significant influence on the ease of use and the length of time the crib will last. The best cots cribs are constructed from solid wood, and meet various safety standards and are easily adapted to different mattress heights. Some cribs have special features that make them more effective. For example, the Quick Zip Crib Sheet lets you replace the sheets without having to remove the entire mattress.

Avoid cribs with decorative cutouts, or other accessories that could catch on clothing or create the risk of choking infants. Check the crib hardware for loose bolts and other components that could snag on clothing or objects.

They are all designed to tighten the connections between the crib and the supported surface.
