We have a moses basket which DD (now 4) slept in which we got second hand with second hand liner and inside cotton cover. I bought a new mattress for it at the time with washable cover.
I was going to wash the mattress cover and wipe down the plastic covered mattress inside and reuse. Now I'm thinking I should get a new one, as it's been 4 years in storage. Are the ones with just plastic covering OK, or do I need to spend more and get one with a washable cover?
Does the basket need a padded liner? I can't find one to buy anywhere and the old one is a bit manky and not v. washable at high temps. I've got the cotton cover for the basket.
Or should I just ditch the lot and get a new basket, liner, and mattress set from mothercare? They've got them for £30-40 at the moment. Would that be better? Don't know what to do!
