These sheets are amazing. With my first son, he had a traditional type of crib with slats all around. Since it's a proven fact that changing crib sheets is a huge pain, I had used the Ultimate Crib sheet with him, and thought it was great. With son #2, we got him a crib that has a solid wood back, and slats only on three sides, so the Ultimate Crib Sheet had nothing to snap to along the back. It was probably a safety hazard, in fact. Then I found these sheets, and they changed my crib-sheet-changing life. I bought the starter set and one extra top sheet, which is plenty. At first I was annoyed at myself because I bought my spare in a different color, but once I got them on the crib, it looks fine because you can see the bottom fitted part, and then you see the bumpers, and when you look inside the crib you can't see the bottom fitted part anyway. It is important that you get your starter set in a color that will look good in the room, since you definitely see it!

I bought these sheets with a little trepidation. I read somewhere that the zippers didn't last (that after a few washings they fell apart). 8 months later I can attest to the fact that the zippers are solid and the sheets are an amazing time saver. You will especially love them when you have to make a groggy middle of the night sheet change.
