[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our Ikea crib did not have ANY “out-gassing”. Note that ours was plain unfinished wood without any varnish. Post just above does notmapply to the new Ikea crib we bought and used…[/quote] I agree with this. As far as I know, Ikea is actually not terrible about chemicals. It's not gots certified or anything, but compared to the other non-certified stuff, they are doing a lot better. They also post lists about which products they use flame retardants in etc, and they do not use them in mattresses in the United States. I'm also not sure how solid, untreated birch would off-gas, because that's what one of the cribs is made off. I'm trying to stay away from chemicals as much as possible, but it's also a financial question. I'm more comfortable with Ikea that with a lot of other stuff, especially if it's solid, untreated wood.[/quote]
