  "question": "Which crib mattresses offer the most value for the money?",
  "answer": "Naturepedic Classic Organic Cotton Crib Mattress (MC24): The Classic is described as the value choice in the Naturepedic line, with a wipe-clean waterproof surface and no removable breathable cover. The store product page lists the mattress at 10 lbs. A parent used this exact Classic Lightweight mattress for almost three years and found it kept its shape and firmness, then handed it down to a newborn sibling.\nLullaby Earth Gentle Start Breathable Crib Mattress: This nursery off-gassing roundup names the Gentle Start its best budget low-VOC pick, saying it is GREENGUARD Gold certified and free of polyurethane foam, vinyl/PVC and chemical flame retardants. The maker offers a lifetime limited warranty (spelled \"Waranty\" on the page).\nNaturepedic Breathable Ultra Organic 2-Stage Crib Mattress (Breathable Ultra 252 2-Stage): The reviewer calls the Breathable Ultra the upgrade pick, worth it only for parents who specifically want the thicker breathable cover, and warns against overbuying on brand language. After three years of use, first as a crib mattress and then as a toddler mattress, it was still in excellent condition and the waterproofing still worked.",
