How are the elastics supposed to look? It doesn't look right on our crib. Are you supposed to wrap them around the same slat multiple times?

No, I just wrap them around the closest slat. Not all of them align perfectly with the slats of our crib.

I use a regular crib sheet and use suspender type things to keep it pulled tight across the back ... Other than that, I don't know.

Mine has a very thin elastic band around it that is so looooooooooooosy gooooooooooosy it does not stay in position AT ALL. It creeps under the sheets to sometimes the end of the bed all bunched up. This happens in two or three days after having changed sheets. My mattress is 10 inches tempurpedic and I no longer use this mattress cover because of this very thing. I need to send it back. Should have gotten the kind I knew worked but I didn't. That kind of rows and rows of gathered stretch on the side. My bed size is a queen.

I used regular fitted crib sheets. They went under the mattress much further than they would on a full-size crib, but the elastic held the sheet in place just fine.

No, get a lambskin blanket and put it under your crib sheet. Or lambskin rug they are fluffier

I use twin sheets but the kind for a deep matress. The elastic is what is really holding the sheets on.

We just used receiving blankets tucked in snug. I didn't have a problem with the blankets coming loose. That said you can always email uppababy and they will get back to you quickly.

I use my fitted sheet from my normal crib. I have no problems with it coming loose.

I turned mine all around and felt every section... the only crease I feel is from the sewn sections, but nothing like you described. If you aren't in an immediate rush, return it for another one--it doesn't seem right.

Mine is also kind of stiff, but I hung it on the wall as a decoration in the nursery because it is so cute! I've noticed the crib sheet, which I've washed many times, still is stiffer than my Carters sheets. I think unfortunately it is the type of cotten that this set is made of.

I used to roll it down and let it bunch up at the bottom. The elastic would actually hold it there and I could easily pull it up over baby's face to cover.

I put the two twin beds together because I wanted the flexibility of two beds or one bed and used the SGT Knots to hold them together. The main thing you have to make sure of is that the twin bed slats are of equal size. Mine were not so when I put them together one side of the bed was lower by about an inch.

honestly, I have not found any sheets that fit. I've been using regular size crib sheets, they are big but I just try to tuck most of it under. I got a waterproof mattress cover that is from made from the same company and it fits well. I found it on overstock, searching the company's name. They have sheets for it as well but I haven't tried them.

I bought the crib for my daughter who is expecting twins. This matches the crib I bought for her first child and she would like the two to match. Is there anyway to exchange the crib spring? Have no idea why a black spring was enclosed with a white crib. We would prefer the exchange, please let me know if possible.

I used crib size mattress sheets. They fit well. I believe you can get an extra cover. I never needed one. Hope this helps

I don't know if you know the full extent of what I did. Firstly I cinched the beds together with a belt of sorts, then I put a foam bridge between the mattresses, then I put a 2" foam topper on top of both, then a mattress pad cover, then sheets and voila! It is reported to be very comfortable by guests and apart from the slight wrapping of things at the top that you don't see ( a few inches of overhang ) it looks great. Hope that helps. I suppose that reading this back, it may have been easier to just buy a king size mattress but our twins were like new and I couldn't just get rid of them. Also, we may need the guest room to have two singles some time in the future.Deborah I don't know if you know the full extent of what I did.
