Stokke Bedding For Your Baby's Nursery

Are you setting up a nursery? Stokke bedding makes it that much easier by offering you crib bedding sets that
will hold your baby with comfort. Stokke Sleepi addresses parents who need their bed sets to be flexible without
sacrificing quality. The Stokke company itself has many children's products but let's keep our focus to the cribs
and sheets that will protect our babies.
The 4 piece "circles" crib bedding set comes with a fitted sheet, baby bumper, waterproof sheet, and
cover. The most important thing to remember with infants is that their skin is very sensitive to fabrics. The
fabrics used here are 100% cotton or terry cloth with a minimum 400 thread count. Typical bed sets for adults
may have a 132 thread count so this is considered luxury by our standards. But for a baby, this is just right.
Another thing is that they don't use chemical or printing liquids to make the decorations. Those sorts of
chemicals will come off over time and definitely not something you want your baby to touch or lick, and the
Stokke bedding team understands that. Because of the luxurious fabrics being used, this bedding set will cost
about $269. Is that expensive? It depends on how you look at it. Can you really put a price on your babies
comfort?
With an infant, or small children, waterproof bed sheets are essential. The bassinet and other Stokke
crib sets are a special size so finding the right sheets can be tricky. Online is your best bet. A waterproof
bed sheet set shouldn't cost more than $50. Stokke bedding has a reputation of being very soft and even the
waterproof sheets can attest to that. In the off chance that you become busy, you may be able to get away with
using just a Stokke waterproof sheet until you can put a bottom sheet over top of it. The regular fitted sheets
are slightly cheaper at about $39 but they can be a hassle. The sheets have a tendency to shrink. This
shrinking can pull the mattress and make gaps between it and the crib rails. And as most parents should know,
that is very dangerous.
If you are looking for a Stokke Sleepi crib, or the Stokke Sleepi Mini Bassinet, be prepared to pay close to
$800. A crib combined with Stokke bedding set will cost close to, or over, $1000. I don't recommend you order it
online because of the next thing I'm about to share with you. So my advice would be to buy it at a local store that
has a return policy in place to protect you in case any problems arise.
A major complaint I've come across must be addressed. After all, we aren't here to promote bedding products. We
are here to give you information on them and our opinions. The biggest issue is that customer service with Stokke
needs major improvement. Incidents that include sending the wrong items and having major recalls on items, is
something to be expected from most manufacturers. It's unfortunate but it happens. The problem lies with their
communication. Even if you have an investigation launched about your wrongfully shipped items, it will take weeks
and weeks for anything to be done, and in fact, some people never get a return call. This doesn't shine too well
with mothers since their baby's safety and well being is the most important thing in the world, and they can't wait
for it. Now don't get me wrong, Stokke bedding and accessories are some great quality items but you do need to make
sure everything is in order before you begin using it.
Take my advice and try to purchase Stokke bedding products from a local store to get a feel for their quality
and problems. Once you are comfortable, then finding them online will save you money even if something doesn't
arrive in the mail as you expect.
