UPPAbaby Vista Bassinet Organic Mattress Cover, Cream

This is the fourth bassinet cover I had to order since the other three I had all shrunk significantly. Whatever you do, DO NOT PUT THIS COVER ANY WHERE NEAR A DRYER. I washed these covers in cold water on a gentle cycle and dried them on a very low heat, basically air dried since the dryer never got hot. Then when I tired to put the cover on the mattress it was too small and unusable.

When I called the company to ask how their mattress cover could shrink like this they advised me to hang it up wet and try stretching it out because I guess they shrink a bit just from washing. Unfortunately my only alternative was to order more covers since the Uppa Baby bassinet only fits this specific mattress cover and stretching the cover didn't do the trick.

In my opinion these are very expensive mattress covers that do not have the level of quality I'd expect from Uppa Baby. If the covers shrink this easily, maybe the company should pre-wash or make the cover a little larger before shipment. Obviously people are going to want to wash the cover before using it and expect for the cover to keep its original size.

If you don't already own this product, then don't buy it. This is a replacement/extra mattress cover for the UppaBaby Vista stroller, whose mattress has a unique trapezoidal shape. The negative reviews are from people who bought it thinking it was meant for a standard bassinet mattress, and then it didn't fit.

So if you're buying this cover, you already know how soft it is, that it's an organic soybean/cotton blend, that it washes easily, etc. I've found that for $15, it's worth having another one of these covers on hand for when one needs to be washed.

I decided to order this when our 3 week old had a large spit up incident in the bassinet. I purchased because it seemed fairly priced. It's just like the original one that came with the Vista.

Just like the cover that came with my 2011 UPPAbaby Vista. No issue there. But I had purchased this before my son was born, planning to have him sleep in the bassinet at night. Surprise, surprise, that did not work out. And by the time I was ready to start taking him out on walks, he was not interested in sleeping through them. So we ended up using the bassinet a lot less than we expected and as a result, I never actually cracked open the box to use the extra bassinet cover.

When I did use the bassinet to lay the baby down for a nap and he happened to spit up/soil it, I would just throw a receiving blanket around the pad and tuck it tightly under. Faster and easier to throw in the wash. Plus, it added a colorful flair to the bassinet. So, I would recommend, if you're thinking of getting this, you might just want to wait and see if you really need it first.
