  "question": "Does this kids' mattress need a special foundation or base?",
  "answer": "No checked fact states that a special foundation is required. Naturepedic 2-in-1 Waterproof Organic Kids Mattress (Twin Trundle Short): Presented as highly versatile, working well in bunk beds, platform beds and trundles. Naturepedic 2-in-1 Waterproof Organic Kids Mattress (Full): The waterproof side also acts as a dust-mite barrier and a backup when a mattress pad is dislodged or missing. Naturepedic Verse Organic Mattress: The same review lists as drawbacks a single firm feel, no King or California King option, a quilted surface that is not waterproof and needs a fitted protector, and a 9-inch height that may exceed some bunk-bed guardrail or frame limits. Essentia LaLa Organic Memory Foam Crib Mattress: A slatted base can be used if each slat is flat and firm with no more than 3 inches between slats.",
