The Graco Premium Foam Crib & Toddler Mattress-in-a-Box is the best mattress my child has had yet. It comes vacuum packed and rolled into a small box approximately 3ft x 1ft or so, so it easily fits into any small car if you are not able to ship it to your home and need to pick up in store instead. No large mattress trying to squish into a car yay! Its super light and easy to maneuver and easy to "assemble" too. Simply remove from packaging and let unfold on floor. Mine said to put on the first protective covering but it came already on the mattress so that saved me a step. Then there is a second zippered covering you have to put on. This one was a little trickier, as it didn't seem to have all the corners where needed, and it zipped up on the long side of the mattress instead of the bottom short side (which was portrayed in the instructions). This threw me off a but but it didn't fit any other way so I just went with what I could. Last but not least you need to leave it out for 48 hours to expand to its full potential,and it says to "fluff" if needed. However, after 24 hours mine seemed to have expanded to full capacity and was ready for use. That was mine though and others may take a little longer, so if you need this mattress for use for a certain time frame I recommend buying it a few days before you need to use it so it can expand correctly. Other than that I have had no issues. The material on the outside (washable) covering is a little coarse and really need to have a nice crib sheet over it. I do worry a bit when it comes to having young babies on this mattress, as I know most baby crib mattresses are a little on the harder side to prevent smothering in a young child. While this foam mattress is no where near as soft and squishy as a typical memory foam mattress, it is still much softer than the old crib mattress we had before. But my toddler loves it, and I think the tad bit of more soft it gives her has really helped her sleeping habits and waking up in the middle of the night. My child really likes this mattress and I am sure your child will too.
