 Good looking crib; bad craftsmenship and replacement policy Jan 06, 2012
By Breezy
We ordered this crib because we liked the style and color and we still do. The real headache began when my husband put the crib together. There were definitely several things that are not right with it. First, the manual was missing so we had to go the the Delta website and print a 20+ page manual so that we could put the whole thing together. The next being that the back and front of the crib either were missing fitting for the bolts or the fittings were misaligned so the bolts were unable to go into the slots. The changer railing is cracked as well. To to finish off this disaster the "hamper" can't even be put together because the holes are not aligned properly. So naturally, I went to the company for help, because as their warranty states, their product is warranted to be free from defects for a period of 1 year from date of purchase under normal use. However, the response I get back is that they can only replace ONE large part under the warranty (though I don't know where in the warranty this is written because I have the document in front of me and can find no reference to that) and they told me to return it to the purchase place. This crib hasn't even been used yet and it really upsets me that despite paying this much for it, they expect me to pay more to return a product that has been defective since it left the factory!

 Not the easiest to put together, but looks nice for the price Oct 04, 2011
By O. Azzam
My wife and I settled on this crib after reviewing several options, and we are overall happy with our purchase. There were two options available for purchase at the time we looked: Target, which had many reviews, or "Delta" which had quite a discount relative to Target (at least with free Prime shipping) but had no reviews. First we were not sure they were both the same (particularly, it was not clear from the picture if the trundle casters), but from what we could tell they were. We took the chance with Delta, and we were happy to find out that it was the same product.
Here are the few issues we found with this crib:
1) The assembly of the changing table took a while because the cardboard backings would just not go into their respective positions. I only got things to come together after applying what felt like unreasonable force, which ended up delaminating the end of these cardboard sheets. Fortunately the exposed cardboard was not visible from a standing view, otherwise it would have been a small eyesore as the crib is dark in color.
2) The right end of the headboard (the curved top piece) was not finished (smoothed/rounded) wood like the rest of the visible surfaces. It is painted though (thankfully!)
3) We were initially disappointed with the smallish appearance of the trundle. I measured the internal dimensions to be 15" x 45" x 4". However, that being said, it has been very useful for storing extra diapers / wipes. The clearance between the bottom of the trundle to the horizontal bar that is at the bottom of the crib is 6.25" which is wider than diaper width so is good for storing the three unused diaper bundles we get from our four-pack orders off of Amazon with room to spare.
As for the assembly, my advice for the changing table is to look for the notches that are made in the lamination to fit the thin cardboard backings, and to push their edges in before trying to fit the pieces together. Maybe try pushing the cardboard into those slots at an angle, starting at one end, and then rolling forward to get it in all the way to the end. Trying to push that cardboard piece in to its slot straight down from the top requires quite a bit of force and may cause you to accidentally tear that flimsy laminated cardboard piece.
We are using the LA Baby 4 Sided Changing Pad 30", White and it took some pushing in but it fit, also in the hamper we were able to fit this in perfectly: Honey-Can-Do HMP-01262 Pop-Up Mesh Spiral Hamper, Medium, White.
update: 5 months into using the hamper as a hamper, now we use it as storage for extra bedding (sheets, blankets, quilts, swaddle blankets) because we noticed a really bad smell emmitting from the hamper, even though I only put dry clothe in there but I guess there was no ventilation so it stunk up after awhile.

 Beautiful sturdy crib Sep 06, 2011
By Cynthia Copeland

Got this as a baby shower gift. It took 3 of us a few hours to put together and when it was built up it looked really big in our small room. So be forewarned that this does take up a good amount real estate. I love the changing table and how the baby is oriented towards you - that makes diaper changing so much easier than the kind where the baby is lying horizontal to you. The trundle is great for storing extra blankets. The storage shelves are fantastic for baby supplies that you don't need immediately at hand. Hamper is great additional storage. The color is gorgeous - very high end finish. Only thing is that baby liked to use the rails as her teething ring and the color did come off. This is a very functional piece of furniture due to storage and the future use you can get out of it (toddler bed, daybed, twin bed headboard).

love it! Apr 14, 2012
By Benavidez10
I just got this crib today, and I was able to put it together by myself (my husband is deployed over seas) It took a couple of hours. It was really simple though. Everything came out looking great! So I'm very pleased with it and the price I paid.

Good Finish but beware! Sep 15, 2011
By seahaw6300
The end product was great looking and works very well but putting this thing together was tough. Almost none of the pieces were marked for what they were or where they go, the bed spring didn't line up with the holes provided and so it became almost impossible to put together. Took about 3 hours to do not because the instructions were hard or hard to decipher what pieces went where (once I figured out what they were) but because the bed spring took about 1.5 hours to put on. One of the wood legs on the bottom drawer came broken as well. I was able to use wood glue to put back together but just kind of a hassle at the end. Looks great now and worth the work but could have been better had the manufacturer taken the time to mark all the pieces and test the holes prior to shipment.
