Sturdy, pretty, practical
By David and Lindsay Dreher
We love this crib!
The design is delighting to the eye, with the sleigh design and the nice golden honey color.
The crib is sturdy. It is long enough, and at the lowest setting tall enough, for our 25lb 2 year old son. However, it’s in truth light – so light that he may push it around the room! It’s little sufficient that I may push it through the doorway, down the hall, and into the living room if I need to.
One thing I like is that the front ornamental roll bar may be left off, so that I may without apparent effort bend over the edge of the crib (I’m genuinely short, 5’1″). It may likewise be effortlessly reattached when we turn it into a bed.
The coolest thing is that it converts to a TWIN bed rather of a full sized bed. I’ve yet to meet a toddler/preschooler/elementary school kid that needs a full sized bed, but all the full size cribs convert that way! This is way better.
Three warnings in regards to this crib:
1) You will need to use “portacrib” or “portable crib” sized mattresses and bedding. They’re rather a bit harder to find.
2) If your kid is teething on this crib, it is difficult to find a protective teething rail that will stay on the sides because of the finelooking curve.
3) It comes with a thin mattress pad, not a real mattress. When my son was an infant, we had an afghan that was incisively the right size to fold in half, and covered the entire floor of the crib, then we stuck the mattress pad over that. It worked for when he was tiny. Once he got heavier, we purchased this:
MDB Sunshine Mini Mattress Pad
But that item is just a thicker mattress pad. We added the new, 3″ one to the thin one that came with the crib, and it has worked fine for in regards to a year, but it’s starting to get worn/mushy in the middle.
We are now going to buy this one instead: MDB Crescent Mini Crib Mattress and since it’s the same price, we in all probability must have purchased this one to begin with!!
Overall, though, it’s completely worth attempting to track down portacrib bedding for it. We love this crib so much, we purchased a second one (in cherry, which is also beautiful) for my daughter.

Pleased with purchase
By Engineer
The crib is idealisti for little rooms. We were competent to convert a little bedroom into a reasonably finish nursery. Assembly is posing no difficulty with two persons but not that difficult. Just take your time and go through the directions. The crib is sturdy and the finish is nice. We got the “Natural Finish.” The wood is soft but that is to be expected with pine. We are not using the pad that came with the crib, as it seemed a little insufficient for the long term. The platform that supports the mattress is adaptable but requires removing the screws at the four corners. Mattress thickness may go up to 5-inches as commended on the mattress platform. Overall, good crib and very pleased with the end result.

A crib that wont overwhelm your room.
By L. Gonzalez
We purchased this crib for our baby that will be born in 2 months. the crib is very nice and I have gotten compliments from each one that’s has seen it. the cherry color is very nice but also effortlessly scratched. But with a brown marker, scratches disappear. The installation kinda confused me at original but you get the hang of it after a couple minutes. Its not the full size that basically is a twin bed, it is bed for a baby up to like 1-2years old. A must for spaces that will have baby sleep in ur room or little room. A Must is to buy the mattress that they trade separately because the one that comes is just a little 1 inch thing that i will not have my baby sleep in. I consider the mattress that came with it as stain guard for the 100 dollar one i bought. Also sheets are littler that the one they trade make sure to recognise the size of this mattress before you buy. We made our own, just purchased very nice fabric and sewed like it was a big pillow case, wrapped the one side excess underneath mattress. Much prettier than the ones they sold, likewise alot for less 35 dollars equated to like 150 for store purchased sets. Had sufficient to make sheets as well.
