We got new W&D early spring and did the XL top load no agitator. Totally worth the splurge. I can wash our sheets and comforter at one time and it's not overloaded or the equivalent of two loads from our old front loader + no mold issues on that front ring. I actually enjoy laundry now. It's weird. Am I weird bc I LOVE the agitator in my top loader? We cloth diaper & I would die without the agitator lol. I'm team top loader for life though. We got new machines last year after discovering our old set was like 20 years old and TINY (DH got them at an appliance refurbishing store). I have never had an HE with an agitator so maybe they are better. I don't mind having an agitator but hate how much space they take up!

I want to talk more about the Snoo. People who know more than I do, let's discuss! Like most people on here, I prioritize sleep above all else but I've always been leery of things you have to transition away from (but in a hypocritical way bc I'm a super swaddler). This will sound annoying but Iwouldn't buy a RnP bc I'd be concerned on getting out of it + head issues some friend have gone through so I'm confused by my interest in a Snoo. It's a newer product but does anyone know someone that transitioned away from it at the 6 month mark? I'm curious on how that goes. My oldest was a dream sleeper at night and I'm not exaggerating slept 10 pm until 7am straight from 3 weeks in his crib in his room. My H and I didn't know how lucky we were until we had DS2 and no matter what we did, it didnt happen. If this Snoo thing can give me a full night's sleep then it's worth the price to me but can anything really do that? I dont really like the 6 month expiration either and this is my last baby. Anyone know someone for real that bought the Snoo that's had it for a while? If so, what do they say? I'm also a big sleep person, but there's no way I could justify the price. I didn't want to use a RNP for sleep, but with DS's terrible reflux, that was the only thing that worked. DS was an awful sleeper until we sleep trained at 6.5 months. I just don't see what the Snoo does that's oh so magical. 🤷🏼♀️ I've read about its features and didn't think anything seemed like it would have done the trick for DS. I bounced on a yoga ball (or driving in the car) to get DS to sleep until we sleep trained at 7.5 months and it sucked. I'm hoping that the snoo would do that work for me. Plus he would only nap on me or in a running car. Maybe it replicates the car motion? As for transitioning away. If it is at 6 months I can sleep train at that point anyway but no I don't know anyone who has done that transition.

I went into the store and said I need a top loader with an agitator and I need to control the water level. The guy was like ok here is the only machine that does that lol. It's also HE which we use for all other laundry but has the option to set a water level which I like for diapers. And I love the agitator for diapers too 😍

Bumping this because I need opinions on crib mattresses.
Apparently organic crib mattresses are now the thing to do. Anyone have one? I read the Lucie's List recommendations, but I keep getting sucked into the Amazon reviews rabbit hole where nothing is good. And for $300ish, it should be pretty good!

DS uses this one. smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B006G94D0C/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1It is a little less than $100, and I've been pleased with it.
