It may just be the nature of mattress covers to do that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uppababy-vista-owners-did-you-wash-your-bassinet-mattress-cover#post-280465 Mon, 03 Sep 2012 10:58:26 +0000 meredithNYC 280465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did and it did shrink a little, but it still fits over the mattress. Just took a little extra work! I would probably just hang it to dry if I had to do it over again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uppababy-vista-owners-did-you-wash-your-bassinet-mattress-cover#post-280437 Mon, 03 Sep 2012 10:43:04 +0000 banana 280437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I borrowed my friends bassinet and washed the covers and didn't notice any shrinking at all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uppababy-vista-owners-did-you-wash-your-bassinet-mattress-cover#post-280414 Mon, 03 Sep 2012 10:04:20 +0000 hilsy85 280414@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have also read this in the reviews! I'll be following this thread... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/uppababy-vista-owners-did-you-wash-your-bassinet-mattress-cover#post-280398 Mon, 03 Sep 2012 09:38:51 +0000 MusicaV 280398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lots of Amazon reviewers complain that the spare and original mattress cover shrinks when you wash it. I'm wondering if these reviews are skewed or if lots of people really have this problem. So, did you wash yours and did it shrink? </p>
