Baby’s Little Place Reviews

The Dourxi crib mattress has gained popularity among parents looking for a versatile, dual-firmness option, complete with the esteemed Greenguard GOLD certification, a breathable cover (sans vinyl), and a comfortably thick core, all offered at an affordable price.

Yet, our experience with this Dourxi crib mattress left us with mixed feelings. The use of a polyurethane foam core, the absence of waterproofing, and certain quality concerns slightly dimmed our overall impression of the product.

Instead of going through the whole article, here are the main things we liked and didn’t like about it:

Dourxi Crib Mattress And Toddler Bed Mattress Review Breakdown

When you receive the mattress, it will be tightly rolled up, compressed, and vacuum-sealed in plastic. To prevent any damage during transport, the rolled mattress is packed in a small, lightweight box measuring approximately 9 x 9 x 32 inches.

When you’re ready to unpack it, make sure to cut the wrapping carefully without nicking the mattress fabric. To ensure that the mattress expands properly, Dourxi recommends letting it expand on a flat surface for at least 3 days. However, we did it for 4 as it wasn’t quite right after 3. It didn’t end up perfect, but it was almost there after 4 days.

Therefore, I suggest placing the mattress in a well-ventilated, warm room and giving it at least five days to fully expand.

Firmness and Support:

First of all, the surface could have been flatter, but it wasn’t awful either.

Now, let’s look into its dual-sided sleeping system. The Dourxi crib mattress and toddler bed mattress is a 2-in-1 mattress, meaning it has two sides of different firmness: a firm side for newborns and young babies and a softer one for toddlers.

We were pretty pleased with the side for babies. It is good and firm, and you can totally feel the difference when you flip the mattress to the softer toddler side. Dourxi says there’s memory foam on the toddler side, but I have to say it’s not as squishy as you’d think! It’s still comfy, just not super fancy memory foam.

Under the cover, there’s a fireproof layer, probably made from a rayon mix. The supposed “gel memory foam” on top is just a quarter-inch thick and doesn’t feel like memory foam at all. The middle layer is around 2 inches thick, and the biggest block is about 3.75 inches.

The two bigger layers were okay, with the top one softer and the lower one more supportive. But that top layer? It was just a light foam, unlike what you’d expect from “cool gel memory foam.

And, as for the bounce…. Foam core mattresses are great because there are no bouncy springs. That means your kid can’t turn it into a trampoline, and you won’t have to worry about any springs breaking and poking out.

Fitting in the crib:

The Dourxi crib and toddler bed mattress fits all standard full-size cribs, as these mattresses and cribs adhere to government-regulated measurements.

For new cribs, the mattress should fit perfectly. But if you’re using a used crib, measure it to ensure the mattress fits snugly.

To be extra certain, do a simple at-home test: Check for a gap between the crib’s frame and the mattress. The gap should be no larger than two fingers.

The corners were rounder than we expected and not as shown in the Dourxi marketing pictures. It’s not a big issue, but we prefer square corners to avoid the possibility of a pacifier slipping through in the middle of the night.

Breathability & Heat Regulation:

A breathable crib mattress is essential for two reasons. Firstly, it ensures the safety of infants by reducing the risk of suffocation. Secondly, it helps regulate the sleep temperature and prevents overheating.

The Dourxi crib and toddler bed mattress is designed with good breathability. It features a lightweight foam that allows sufficient airflow through the mattress’s core. Additionally, the cover is not waterproof, which may be less practical in case of any mess, but it significantly enhances the mattress’s breathability.

Cleaning:

The cover is removable and machine washable, making it simple to clean, especially for bigger night accidents.

The cover:

The mattress’s cover is not waterproof, which means that while it is comfortable, it does not provide protection against spills. To ensure that your mattress remains safe from accidents, it is recommended that you use a waterproof pad.

Additionally, be cautious when dealing with the zipper as it seems fragile and there have been reviews on Amazon saying that it might break. Remember to wash and dry the cover with the zipper closed to prevent any damage.

Safety:

The Dourxi baby crib and toddler mattress have undergone thorough testing for durability, quality, firmness, and chemicals. This mattress is entirely free from toxins and chemicals.

Its foam holds a CertiPUR-US certification, ensuring it doesn’t release pollutants into indoor air. Additionally, it boasts a GREENGUARD Gold certification, which offers similar assurances. The distinction lies in GREENGUARD providing overall security for the entire mattress, while CertiPUR certification specifically guarantees the foam’s safety.

Moreover, the mattress is devoid of lead and phthalates, meeting all federal flammability standards.

The bottom line:

The Dourxi crib mattress has some good features and certifications, which is nice. But honestly, this mattress is a bit too expensive considering what it offers. If they improved the zippers and used a real memory foam top layer, then it would totally be worth the money!

The Dourxi crib and toddler mattress meets all required safety standards, so it is a safe choice for your baby. But I believe that there are better options available for the price. So, if you are not sure either, I recommend you take a look at our Best-rated crib mattresses.

4 thoughts on “Dourxi Crib Mattress and Toddler Bed Mattress Review”

  1. I bought Dourxi crib mattress for our granddaughters crib. We can not find any sheets that fit the mattress they are too small. What name brand sheets should I buy?

      1. I love the mattress. My only issue is the cover didnt protect the actual mattress. Now my son has throw up stains and has had accidents that his diaper didnt hold through the night and now the mattress stinks and i dont know how to clean the actual mattress itself.

        1. Yes, Dourxi Crib Mattress and Toddler Bed Mattress is ‘only’ water-resistant, not waterproof, so this can happen. If you don’t notice the accident, the fluids will slowly penetrate inside.
          As you already saw in the review, you can remove the cover and wash it in the washing machine.
          As a mom, I don’t like to use chemicals to clean things that are close to my child, so I recommend a natural cleaner, which removes stains and odor very well.
          You need a baking soda, distilled white vinegar, cloth or paper towels, and an empty spray bottle.

          Saturate that mattress with vinegar and let it sit for 10 minutes.
          Press the cloth or several layers of paper towels into the mattress to soak up the vinegar.
          Sprinkle baking soda over the mattress and let it sit for several hours, the longer the better. Baking soda will soak the vinegar and remove the odor.
          Vacuum up the baking soda from the mattress.
          That’s it! I had success with this all-natural method, and I hope it will help you as well.

          Let us know if it helps!
