mattress for IKEA Gulliver cribs?

Has anyone had trouble buying a non-IKEA mattress for their IKEA crib (specifically Gulliver cribs)? I've registered for a mattress at Target that looks like it should fit, but the measurements that IKEA recommends are maybe 1/3 to 1/2 in different than the mattress measurement. Any brands that you'd recommend?

    We have the Colgate Classica III foam mattresses and they seem to work well.  I got them online somewhere...can't quite remember where but it was some place recommended on here for the cheapest price on them.

    We have Tassa cribs (now discontinued) and we haven't had any trouble with standard mattresses. I think Ikea cribs are a little bit smaller so the mattress has an extra snug fit, but I don't think that's a bad thing.

    we have the Leksvik cribs- and the orig mattresses we got at BRU were too small... even though they are standard size cribs- not all standard mattresses are the same.

    We got the Safety 1st mattress from Walmart -which is awesome b/c it's very firm and only $40 --- just as nice as the $$$$$ mattress we got for Griffin from BBB.... We love the Safety 1st mattresses - and they fit nice and snug in the Leksvik cribs.

    We bought the Gulliver Cribs for the twins. Ditto to Goldie_Locks--we got the Safety 1st mattresses from Walmart. They are nice and firm and only $40. They fit great!
