That is the same thing I bought: the naturpedic crib mattress with the dimensions 18 x 36 x 1.5". It was a snug fit to get it in the cradle and had to be smooched down. But once the baby was on it, it flattened out pretty well, with some bowing at the edges. In spite of the imperfect fit, it was lightyears better than the thin, crappy "mattress" that came with the bassinet.

I just bought the bassinet mattress recommended to go with it and it fits great. The naturepedic I've heard is quite big.

Sorry to hear that. We bought Cradle Mattress - 18 X 36 X 2" Thick from YOURBABYSHOP. It fit perfectly.

My baby slept beautifully in the bassinet with the mattress it came with. It's just hard to find sheets that fit.

Zarett, what did you end up doing about the mattress? I went ahead and purchased this mattress and really don't feel safe about how it fits the bassinet. I'm thinking on ordering a custom made mattress from Naturepedic instead. Thanks!

Yes it was the correct size. My only complaint is that the mattress is oval and my bassinet is rectangular but that was my fault.

Mine expanded quite a bit and covers my queen mattress all the way, with even a half inch or so of overhang until the cover is on. If you just took it out of the box it might take a day or two to expand all the way, if it doesn't after that I'd contact the seller and see if they shipped the wrong size.

To be honest with you, and to save you some time and energy.....my purchase was a gift and I no longer have it. What I did was measure my bassinette, taking note of the curves and actually go into the store and pick it out myself. I did the same thing with the pacnplay...they both need more cushion.

God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam. Only one person mentioned that the mattress was very firm and that was unfortunately after I purchased it. Damn thing kept getting harder, and I kept buying more foam toppers for comfort. Fortunately, my mom needed a new mattress and she has to have very firm. I gave her the hard 11" and ordered an 8" pressure relief memory foam and I love it. Feels so good to sleep on my side and not wake up hurting! So forget trying to "fix" that hard mattress and just get another one. You will quickly forget about the money you threw away! God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam.

I was wondering is the matress on the co sleeper firm? I've been using a pack n play with bassinet and I dont like that it doesnt lay completely flat.

Assuming you drilled your own holes into headboard / footboard, you should have measured width to a standard mattress size. You may need to reattach to head/footboards farther inboard to fit mattress. Only other possibility is you have wrong mattress size (twin vs full?)?

I only have one mattress, they offered to take it back but I just didn't have the time or energy to do it. I don't like it, it's definitely not a queen size. I got one from walmart the beautyrest queen. It was perfect, larger and higher. Should've taken the time to go get another one. BTW, I use it for my regular bed, until I can afford a tempurpedic.

Hi,First, is your hood removable? If it is removable then this bedding will work.Second, what is the measurements of the rim around the bassinet. If it's more than 90" use a 16 x 32. If it's less go according to your mattress.Let me know if you still have any questions.Rishy877-552-2229 ext 304

The mattress is too small I meant. It is made for the wooden type portable cribs. I tried it in several pack and plays and it didn't fit it any of them.

I'm not sure specific to Naturepedic but the standard crib mattress size (Sealy for example- 52x28x5.5 inches) fits just fine.

pLEASE CHECK THE INFO ON THE CRIB SITE...My daughter used that as a guide and purchased the exact mattress that met those dimensions...the matress fit snuggly.

Our bassinet was also very old. I measured from the top of the bassinet to the floor and then measured the inside of the bassinet from bottom to top. In order to measure the inside, turn the bassinet over and measure the bottom from side to side and length. Good Luck! Ours turned out great!

HiI purchased this for my grandson. It's a great mattress. It's in his toddler pirate boat bed now (little tikes). It fits perfectly. Hopes this helps in some way. Have a great day!

I used these: Luvable Friends Fitted Bassinet Sheet, White (Discontinued by Manufacturer)They are really soft, wash up nicely and fit really well. (But I also purchased this mattress to replace the pad inside: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005EGXIRM/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&p;sc=1) This bassinet is good up to 30 pounds, not 10 as someone else stated. My 7 month old still sleeps in it. I have to keep it zipped so he doesn't try to pull up and possibly fall out, but he is no where near being too big for it. Hope this helps!

No, a bassinet mattress won't fit in it. For safety, I wouldn't recommend using anything else other than the pad that comes with it. My grandson is 5 months old now and still sleeps through the night in it. I haven't measured the pad but I think the size is on the web site

I put a full size plush mattress on this frame and the frame is too large by maybe 2 inches on each side. Not a deal killer but not a good fit either. Not sure why the bad fit, my mattress is a top of the line pillow top from Costco.
