I would say no because of bed bugs. Plus you never know who has slept on it or what has been done in it.

as long as there aren't any rips in it, I would. Just clean it first.

. Only issue is bed bugs. But most crib matresses are plastic covered anyway so the chance of bedbugs is pretty low.

I've seen some non plastic ones. The plastic covered ones aren't going to get bed bugs as far as I know.

wouldn't a bleach scrub down kill bed bugs?

Yes, and they can't crawl on plastic anyway. So the chances of even getting them are pretty nill.

Rubbing achohol(sp) will, it dries them out and kills them on contact.

lady just texted me a picture. piss stains on it. so a big, fat, NO! & the measurements were too big anyways. sucks though, a $90 mattress for $10 would have been a killer deal!

thanks for the input ladies.

I hope you can find something. I just gave away both the cribs and a decent matress for free so deals could be out there!
