Changing the crib sheet has just became a little easier. The Ultimate Crib Sheet is four products in one. It's a quick-change sheet, mattress pad, super absorbent pad and waterproof pad. It can even absorb up to four cups of liquid. Fits all standard cribs. Crib, mattress and bedding sold separately. Made of 50/50 cotton/poly.

Couldn't live without them!!!

Sometimes you just don't know that you needed something until you have it! I complained to my sister about how many times I have had to change the crib sheets in the middle of the night (sometimes more than once in the same night) so that my child doesn't have to sleep on soiled sheets. She suggested that I purchase these sheets. They have been a real life saver. I placed the decorative fitted crib sheet on, just like always, then placed one ultimate sheet on top of another. So now in the middle of the night, there is no more lifting the mattress out of the crib to change it. If he soils one of the ultimates, then another clean one is beneath it. I have to make an effort to remember to wash my decorative sheet because it hasn't been touched for weeks. The snaps are very convenient. Thanks.

Extremely convenient and durable

I originally bought 2 of these crib sheets 3 1/2 years ago. I am finally writing a review because today, I again realized how wonderful these sheets are. First, they have lasted 3 1/2 years with no rips or tears and no problems with the snaps. If there are any stains, I just use a bleach pen to remove them. I wash each sheet at least every other week, if not more frequently...so they've made it through about 100 washings each. Second, the convenience is invaluable. My daughter has reflux and unfortunately throws up in her crib frequently. It is so easy to change the sheet in the middle of the night, I could not imagine trying to change a real sheet and fight with the mattress. I have done fairly well with alternating between the two, there are only a handful of times where I would have needed one more. Fabulous invention!

To first-time parents: regular fitted sheets are difficult to change!

Before becoming a parent, I didn't realize that changing the fitted sheet on a crib mattress is much more difficult and time-intensive than changing one on an adult-sized mattress. For safety reasons, sheets on crib mattresses fit very tightly and have to be tugged vigorously to get on and off. To put a sheet on securely you have to take the mattress out of the crib, which can be tough because the mattress is wedged tightly against the bars of a crib-- and if you use a crib bumper, this process takes even longer. Finally, if you use the regular system of a fitted sheet + a waterproof mattress pad, there are two layers to change every time the sheets get soiled. The Ultimate Crib Sheet makes crib changes MUCH quicker and more convenient, mainly because the mattress doesn't have to be moved to get the sheet on and off. It also creates less laundry because there's only one layer to wash each time. As a new parent, I find that anything that saves your precious time is a huge asset.

As an added side bonus, this sheet can be used as a background for do-it-yourself infant passport photos when your baby is too young to sit up on his/her own and needs to lie down for a photo! Most crib sheets have cute patterns, which look nice normally but can't be used as a solid white background for those pesky passport pictures. I took (valid) passport photos of my baby lying in his crib on this sheet, looking up at his mobile and smiling.

Corner snap ties could be longer

Seems to fit just fine except that the corner snaps could be longer. We have a Sorelle Rosa crib with hidden hardware so the snaps must go around the outside of two bars for each corner. The straps are just not long enough to effectively go around all 4 corners. No big deal though as we just do two corners and then go around the first set of bars on the far side. So the sheet is offset by a couple inches but doesn't appear to have enough slack to become a safety issue. If our baby does start to try to get under the sheet it doesn't seem like a difficult task to just add our our strap extensions. We'll probably be buying a few more to allow for more time between laundry runs.

Awesome Product ... but ... there are some drawbacks

This wonderful protective crib sheet will deliver just about everything you want ... but ... there are some relatively minor problems:
1. The "permanent" elastic straps will become grossly overstretched in about a year. (I guess this is to be expected, but here's a "heads up" anyway.)
2. The removable elastic straps (at the head and foot of the sheet) are hard to use if you have a dust ruffle on the crib. You'd need to cut two holes in the dust ruffle, if you wanted to use these straps. I do recommend using these straps, too, because some active babies manage to work their way under the sheet ... you really want to avoid this.
3. The plastic underside will tear in about a year. When this happens, you really need to replace the sheet. It's a safety concern as well as a compromise to the wetness barrier.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this sheet will save you from those horrible middle-of-the-night crib-making sessions ... which makes it worth the price.
