The BubsNest Verdict

The pocket sprung construction offers genuinely supportive sleep and the breathability is impressive, though you need to verify measurements carefully for your specific cot. Perfect for parents prioritizing sleep quality and willing to invest in a premium mattress, but skip it if you have an unusual cot size or need something lightweight for frequent moves.

⚠️Double-check your cot's internal dimensions before ordering—even a few millimeters off can create dangerous gaps or prevent the mattress from fitting at all.

Loved It

The Ickle Bubba Premium Pocket Sprung Cot Mattress is a well-reviewed option that offers a comfortable and supportive sleep surface for babies. Parents appreciate its sturdy construction, breathable materials, and the range of height and incline settings to customise the fit.

What parents love

Comfort and SupportParents report that the pocket sprung mattress provides a comfortable and supportive sleep surface for their babies, with the mattress maintaining its shape and firmness over time.

Customisable FitThe mattress offers seven height and incline settings, allowing parents to adjust the fit to their baby's needs and their own bed height, ensuring a snug and secure fit.

BreathabilityThe mattress is made with breathable materials, helping to keep babies cool and comfortable throughout the night, which is particularly appreciated by parents during warmer weather.

Worth knowing

Size LimitationsSome parents note that the mattress may be on the smaller side for larger or older babies, and may not be suitable for extended use as the child grows.

PortabilityWhile the mattress is compact enough to fit beside a bed, it is not considered very portable, making it less suitable for frequent travel or use in multiple locations.

Tips from parents

Mattress Care

Parents recommend regularly rotating the mattress to ensure even wear and tear, and using a waterproof mattress protector to keep it clean and fresh.

Bed Setup

Many parents find the mattress works best when paired with the Ickle Bubba Bubba&Me Luxe Bedside Crib, as the two products are designed to work seamlessly together.
