Which mattress for Ikea Gulliver?

I remember seeing this being answered on the board, but don't remember (and can't find) the answers.

Thanks so much!

We don't have the Gulliver, but got the foam mattress from Ikea ($40) and have been happy with it.

I think most standard mattresses will fit

 

We are getting this one, which was baby bargains highest rated, we decided to go for the cheaper crib and spend more on the mattress that baby will be laying directly on.

We registered for the one recommended by Baby Bargains... by Colgate it's $150 https://www.amazon.com/Colgate-Mattress-Company-Classica-Foam/dp/B000H7TPCU/ref=br_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=IJICBCZA7IHTH&colid=QUB7TLISFN0X and it fits the Gulliver.

I found this mattress on Target online, too - would be nice to be able to use a registry completion coupon and my Target credit card to get an extra 5% off!

We got the Colgate Classica I.  Yes, our mattress cost more than the crib.

It was pretty silly - but I figured it was important!  They both work excellent for DD - she's been in her crib since 4 weeks old.

That's good to know! When we registered for it we were like we pay more for our beds then frame, so why not!

That's a great point.  Never thought about it that way.

Ar first DH was a little surprised by what I was willing to pay for the mattress.  I figured it was much more important than over-spending on other baby gear...
