Reviews
Affordable, modern crib
I received the crib 2 weeks after ordering, and there were no problems with shipping damage. I put it together myself in about an hour (at 8 months pregnant) except for the mattress support which needs two people to install. It looks gorgeous, especially with other two-tone furniture (look at the Babi Italia scandi changer on Amazon for a great deal) like DwellStudio from Target or Babi Italia (Scandi). If you are looking for a solid, fixed-gate, modern crib, I would definitely consider this one. I researched modern cribs extensively and while I would have liked to get a Stokke, Oeuf, or Nurseryworks I couldn't justify spending $1000 on a crib! This one is a great deal for the money, especially since it comes with a toddler conversion rail that you don't have to purchase separately.
Nice, low profile design
We looked extensively at various cribs. Our criteria was that it be well constructed with clean simple lines and good looks, under $500 if possible, and preferably have a low profile. Additionally we wanted all white or white with minimal accents. This crib met all of our criteria and had the lowest overall height of any of the cribs we found (unless you spend significantly more money). Because of the low profile it does require the mattress to be lowered almost all to the floor when your baby grows older and thus eliminates any ability for a storage drawer under the crib which would have ben something we would like to have, but we were ok with this compromise.
We did have a small dent in the top rail of the crib presumably from shipping (the packaging was about at thin as it could be and be able to expect the crib would arrive undamaged). Amazon offered to replace the crib or give us a 10% discount. we opted for the discount as packing up and shipping back the crib in its entirely seemed hardly worth it. It would have been preferable if they could have sent us a replacement for the damaged rail but they said the manufacturer was not set up to do that.
The most beautiful crib I have ever seen
I was set to get the Sleigh Crib from PBK. But then when we moved into our new house, I realized that crib would way way to large for the baby's room. It would not fit a changing table, the crib and a rocker/glider. Therefore, I needed to somehow compromise. I started researching again and by accident came across this crib. I fell in love w/ it as soon as I saw it, but I was skeptical about buying it, because so many reviews said they had received damaged products. I wished I could go into a store and see it first. That was not possible, so I still went ahead and bought the crib (emotional/impulse buying I guess). The crib arrived after 4-5 days of ordering it and the box was a little damaged on the outside. I panicked thinking that it was going to be damaged inside as well. I am 8 months pregnant and this box is huge when it comes...and very heavy....I did not touch it myself, I had the carrier leave it at my door and when my husband came home, he moved it inside the house.
Two weeks later, my husband found the time to actually put the crib together. He assembled it within 1 hour by himself. I was taking pictures for the baby book while he was doing that. As he was putting it together we were both so impressed with the quality of the paint...Just gorgeous...I have to say that it is a bit larger than I had anticipated and way, way more beautiful than I had imagined. I would buy this again in a heartbeat. As my husband was saying when putting it together: "we don't need to leave it inheritance to our grandchildren; it just needs to serve a purpose for the next 2 years". We are so pleased w/ how it looks in our baby's room...Please, don't get discouraged by the reviews about damaged boxes. We bought both the crib and changing table and none were damaged and they were so well packed inside...When you put them together, they look amazing! We painted the baby's room light blue and we're planning on getting a white/light blue rocker to go with the room.
To give you an idea of the quality of things I bought for our son: the Stokee Stroller, Britax car seat and many other quality brands. I don't just buy for the looks of things. But fortunately for us, this crib set seems to be a mixture of both quality, looks and convenience. I will have to take pics and upload them when I am done with the room.
