I also want to confirm that there are no flame retardant chemicals or any kind of chemicals in this mattress

Hello We do not add any flame-retardants to our Roma or Naturale mattresses. In the Roma, we use Rayon as a natural fire-barrier. In the Naturale, we use the wool as a natural fire-barrier. Thank you kindly, have a terrific day! SleepEZ

It is not represented as organic wool; however, the comforter does not seem to smell from chemicals.

I think we may have noticed that briefly when we first got it too but it left quickly. Our baby and 2 yr old sleep on them and no allergies I can think of that come from the mattress, far less chemicals than any other mattress for sure. Hope this helps!

It's about half food-grade polyethylene and half polyester. The mattress meets all flammability requirements without needing any flame barriers or other flame retardant chemicals. It's also completely waterproof without needing vinyl or perfluorinated compounds. It's hygienic in that anything wipes right off, and without staining. It is firm (the way the Consumer Products Safety Commission wants it). It's also firm at the edges (for jumping toddlers) with a snug fit. It is free of known allergenic materials like latex. It does not contain any polyurethane foam or so-called soy-foam (which is polyurethane foam). It comes with a limited lifetime warranty and is durable and well-built, even though the whole mattress weighs only about seven pounds (which makes it real easy to bend over the edge of the crib and pick up the mattress and change the sheet). Healthy Child Healthy World recommends this mattress. And Lullaby Earth has won a ton of awards.

Check out http://www.davincibaby.com/willow-natural-coconut-palm-crib-mattress and hover your mouse over the 'Meets Federal Flammability Standard CFR-1633'. They explain that the mattress does not contain any flame retardant materials, but use a thin layer of cotton-like material (possibly with Dupont chemicals) that do not contact the user and they use Kevlar thread to make the mattress, which is flame resistant. I did notice a slight odor when I removed it from the plastic wrapper, but aired it for several months before baby arrived and the slight smell was long gone. Good luck with your purchase- we have just flipped this one to the toddler side and I am still very happy with the purchase.

It does not have flame retardant. (See the FAQ on Halo's website: http://www.halosleep.com/frequently-asked-questions/).

Actually, I expected it to have a chemical odor when it was first opened, but it did not. I noticed no odor at all and was able to start using it immediately. It arrived in a large box, fully expanded, not like some foam bedding products that are shipped compressed, which do have a temporary chemical odor. I am still pleased with this purchase.

I've only had the mattress for 2-3 months, it's retained it's shape and has no odor

All of our mattresses meet the requirements of 16 CFR Part 1632 (Cigarette Smoldering Test) and 16 CFR Part 1633-Federal flammability. Our mattresses are CertiPUR-US certified which means they are made without CFC's, PBDE, and formaldehyde.

This mattress has inorganic components, such as the springs and structural sides. If you want the safety and durability of a traditional crib mattress with as much organic material incorporated as possible, I highly recommend this product. We have been using it for over a year.

Agree with the others -- no smell. This is not a cheap PVC mattress, so no outgassing and no leaking!

If it were free of chemicals, it would be outer space, not a mattress. In that case, I wouldn't recommend sleeping on it. I'm guessing you're asking in particular about the fire prevention chemicals that are sprayed onto most foam furniture now, outside of the state of California. I have no idea. Hope someone from the mattress company pipes up about the pros and cons of their manufacturing process.

I am not sure if there is a fire retardant or not, but if you call the company, they will answer any questions you may have. I called them many times before I bought my mattress. I have had it over a year now and I am very happy with it. http://www.lucidmattress.com

I never,never ,never, ever had any issue with the off gassing. Not once did we smell any type of odor at all. That was one of the first things I mentioned in my review. I don't know about anyone else, but our bed was sound. Until this day this mattress has held up fresh as the day we got it.

I don't know all that is inside, but the outside has a substantial organic cotton shell. I have chemical sensitivities so after taking the plastic bag off the mattress I left it outside for a few hours. I didn't notice any smells.

I was wondering the same thing, and it looks like the answer is most likely yes. One reviewer mentioned that the same product is sold in ebay, and that product description states that there is an inch foam at the center and that the mattress meets California flame retardant bulletin. See http://www.ebay.com/itm/Royal-Traditional-Japanese-Thai-Floor-Rolling-Futon-Mattresses-Beds-30-W-x-80-L-/290945623787?pt=Mattresses&hash;=item43bdb5e6ebFor more info on flame retardants and safety issues, go to http://www.greensciencepolicy.org/frequently-asked-questions

The details are given in the product description, here they are:- 100% Organic Cotton- Made in USA- Free of phthalates, vinyl, nontoxic polyurethane foam- Includes 100% cotton cover.It had a very faint smell. I aired it outside for about 30min and the smell was gone. It is actually a very good mattress. I would recommend it.
