7 best firms mattresses for children

The children's mattress is not just an accessory to the room, and therefore its choice is the most important task. Why is a mattress for a child so important? Experts insist that in the first 12 months of life, children develop intensive development of the musculoskeletal system. If we consider that the child lays about 16 hours a day, it is not surprising that the mattress directly affects the formation of the spine. In order for the child to sleep sweetly, you need to find the best among the variety of mattresses - moderately resilient, perfectly even and optimally hard. As they mature, the stiffness of the mattress should decrease, but soft mattresses are still banned.

What to look for when buying a baby mattress:

• Child's age. Coconut coir - the optimal filling of mattresses for newborns. The width of the mattress is no more than 10 cm. Composite latex and coconut packings are suitable for a child aged 3 years and more. For schoolchildren, it is worth looking at semi-rigid products made from natural latex, coconut fiber and other composite fillers. A model for a teenager can be semi-rigid or semi-soft, for example, with a block of independent springs.
• Size and shape. Everything is simple - the size of the mattress should match the size of the bed. If there is a gap of 3-4 cm, there is a risk that the baby will push a leg or handle into it, which naturally leads to discomfort and even possible injury. The most popular size for newborns is 60 * 120. In addition to the standard rectangular on sale there are round and oval products. Most manufacturers offer the manufacture of mattress in individual sizes, which gives room for imagination on the design of a child’s bed.
• Cover and mattress cover. Experts insist that the presence of a protective cover increases the life of the mattress by several times, preventing its deformation and wear. There is no need to talk about the benefits of a water-proof mattress cover, because “surprise” can be caught at any time. This is especially true at the age of 2 to 4 years, when children are actively weaned from diapers.

Mattresses, including children’s, are represented by the following spring block variations: springless, dependent (Bonel) and independent.

1. With dependent spring unit "BONEL". A distinctive feature is low cost. However, experts advise not to be deceived, because the quality of such products in comparison with others is not high. Tightly coupled springs make adjacent adjacent - compressing, one pulls adjacent ones. As a result, there is a hammock effect, which soon leads to creaking and deformation. The best mattresses in this segment are products with a smaller size of springs (about 10 cm in diameter) and with a large number per square meter (about 100 pieces). Another nuance - the presence along the perimeter of the steel frame will significantly increase the service life and shape preservation.
2. With independent spring block. In contrast to the Bonelev mattresses, products of this type do not create a hammock effect. They are characterized by the absence of squeak and anatomical properties.Each spring of 5-6 cm in diameter has a separate protective cover, and pressing it does not affect the adjacent ones. The optimal number per square meter - 250 pcs. and more, then the weight of the child will be evenly distributed over the orthopedic product, and the skeleton will remain in a strictly horizontal state.
3. Springless mattresses. The absence of steel elements in the design of products allows the mattress to be easily transported, rolled up and packed in vacuum. After several hours, mattresses made of latex or innovative water-latex, coconut coir and polyurethane foam take the required form, but it will be impossible to return them to their original state - this should be taken into account when planning the move. But this kind of mattresses from other fillers (cotton wool, foam rubber) and without vacuum packaging are not recommended by orthopedists because of the negative impact on the baby’s spine. Their excessive softness will not allow to maintain the skeleton, and besides diaper rash and unevenness are possible.

Having come to the store, you can easily get confused - the assortment in the domestic market is so rich: various fillers, degree of rigidity, height and size range. According to the survey, the majority of buyers are guided by a manufacturer when buying, especially if his friends praise him. Virtually every company specializing in the manufacture and sale of mattresses offers a line of children's products that meet all safety and comfort requirements.
