Top 10 mattress brands for kids

A children's mattress is by no means just an accessory to the room, and therefore choosing it is the most important task. Why is a mattress so important for a child? Experts insist that during the first 12 months of life, children experience an intensive development of the musculoskeletal system. Considering that the child lies 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 elastic, perfectly even and optimally hard.As you get older, the firmness 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 is the optimal filling of mattresses for newborns. The width of the mattress is no more than 10 cm. For a child aged 3 years and older, composite latex and coconut stuffings are suitable. 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 here - the size of the mattress should correspond to the size of the bed. If there is a gap of 3-4 cm, there is a risk that the baby will stick a leg or handle in there, which will naturally lead to discomfort and even possible injury. The most popular size for newborns is 60 * 120. In addition to standard rectangular products, there are round and oval products on sale. Most manufacturing companies offer the manufacture of a mattress according to individual sizes, which gives room for imagination in the design of a child's bed.
• Cover and mattress pad. Experts insist that the presence of a protective cover at times increases the life of the mattress, preventing its deformation and wear. There is no need to talk about the benefits of a moisture-proof mattress cover, because a “surprise” can come at any moment. This is especially true at the age of 2 to 4 years, when children are actively weaned from diapers.

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

1. With dependent spring block "Bonel". A distinctive feature is low cost. However, experts advise not to flatter yourself, because the quality of such products is low compared to others. Tightly fastened springs make adjacent springs dependent - compressing, one pulls the neighboring ones. As a result, a hammock effect is observed, which soon leads to creaking and deformation. The best mattresses in this segment are products with smaller springs (about 10 cm in diameter) and a large number of springs per square meter (about 100 pcs). Another nuance - the presence of a steel frame along the perimeter will significantly increase the service life and shape retention.
2. With independent spring block. Unlike Bonel mattresses, products of this type do not create the effect of a hammock. They are characterized by the absence of creaking and anatomical properties. Each spring, 5-6 cm in diameter, has a separate protective cover, and pressure on it does not affect adjacent ones in any way. The optimal number per square meter is 250 pcs. and more, then the weight of the child will be evenly distributed over the orthopedic product, and the skeleton will be 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 a vacuum. After a few hours, mattresses made of latex or innovative water latex, coconut coir and polyurethane foam take the required shape, but it will not be possible to return them to their original state - this should be taken into account when planning a move. But this kind of mattresses from other fillers (cotton wool, foam rubber) and without vacuum packaging are not recommended by orthopedists due to the negative impact on the baby's spine. Their excessive softness will not allow high-quality support of the skeleton, and in addition, diaper rash and irregularities are possible.

Arriving at the store, you can easily get confused - the assortment on the domestic market is so rich: various fillers, degree of rigidity, height and size range. As the survey showed, the majority of buyers are guided by the manufacturer when buying, especially if friends praise him. Almost every company specializing in the production and sale of mattresses offers a line of children's products that meet all safety and comfort requirements. Among the most popular brands are Askona, Ormatek, Plitex, DreamLine, Afalina, Lonax, IKEA.

How to choose the best children's mattress

Experts share up-to-date tips on what to consider when buying a mattress for children:

1. Experts recommend avoiding foam mattresses.Their low cost is an absolute plus, behind which lies excessive softness and lack of support for the spine.
2. The place of purchase deserves attention. The lack of labeling, sale in markets and private outlets without product certification should alert. Give preference to official stores and trusted companies.
3. It is desirable that it be possible to look into the mattress and study the filler (color, density, uniformity, etc.). Many manufacturers equip products with fasteners for this purpose.
4. The best support for the spine is provided by mattresses with latex and coconut filling. In order for the child to develop harmoniously, the sleep was strong and comfortable, opt for these products. Their high cost fully corresponds to the quality and durability of use.
5. It is believed that the rigidity of the product should decrease with age. Thus, the most rigid models are designed for newborns, but medium hardness, and later medium softness, for older children. Such mattresses perfectly take the shape of the body, support the spine and allow the muscles to relax without harm to health.
