 Love this crib! Feb 01, 2010
By D. Prichard
I finally ordered this crib after looking at lots (and I mean lots) of cribs and their reviews. This is an awesome crib! It is a cinch to put together, is very sturdy, and looks great! It is elegant, yet practical. I have the crib in the cappuccino color; the color is warm and rich...very nice. We were looking for a crib that would be able to fit into our bedroom and not be too large, and this one was it. It fits a standard sized 52 x 28 crib mattress; the difference is that it doesn't sit as high as other standard cribs but, for me, this was what I was wanting and looking for. After doing alot of reading and research on SIDS (since my husband had a daughter who died from SIDS), we paired this with a Naturepedic Organic mattress and CozyWedge bumpers (instead of the traditional bumpers which can pose a suffocation hazard), and our five-month old son has had no problems sleeping peacefully in this crib. I highly recommend this beautiful crib!!
**UPDATE 6/11/2011**: I now have this crib in the cherry color so that makes two of them that I have purchased...shows how much I love this crib! I had originally wanted a cherry color which was unavailable when I purchased the cappuccino colored crib. I have since given the cappuccino-colored crib to my friend for her baby girl as she loved the color of that one. One review noted that there appeared to be "holes" in the wood of the crib in order to give it the distressed look. This was the case with my cappuccino-colored crib, however, I found it added to the overall charming, rustic look of the crib and really liked the look of it. The cherry-colored crib does not have this distressed look and instead is a smooth, rich, deep cherry color which I also love. One review questioned the sturdiness of this crib....I have found this crib to be extremely sturdy and well-built. This second crib was as easy to put together as the first one, and looks just as fabulous.
I have also not had the issues that others have had with being able to find a mattress that fits. If you remember to go with a standard size 52 x 28 crib mattress, it fits perfectly.

Fantastic Crib! Dec 12, 2009
By Sheryl Darlow
With twin boys coming I wanted something reasonably priced that looked nice and didn't take up too much space like the Lifetime cribs we've seen at the baby stores. This crib is not only so beautiful in person but it was a breeze to put together. I did it with my stepdaughter while I was 7 months pregnant with twins. And we did two of them! The color matches the Leksvik "Antique" furniture I bought from Ikea perfectly! We have two guest rooms with furniture and full size solid wood beds so we didn't want to spend alot on furniture that we wouldn't need when they get bigger. I love that this crib converts so they can continue to share a room until they are out of the toddler stage (mainly for the ease of us parents who have to respond to the needs of two babies/toddlers at once). I can't recommend it enough and NO ONE should be disappointed with this crib. It does sit lower than alot of other cribs, but my husband is 6'2 and he has no problem with it. It only takes 2 seconds to bend over and pick up a baby or put a pacifier back in their mouth. I highly recommend this beautiful practical crib!

 careful buying mattress! Nov 03, 2010
By adbh
I bought this crib and it is definitely a good value and looks nice. Definitely seems low, but we wanted something simple. My husband did struggle with the fact that some of the screws were slightly longer than others and needed to be used in the correct location.
However, the crib comes with a big sign that says it should only be used with mattresses at least 27 1/4" by 51 5/8", and most mattresses (including the Sealy Ultra Rest listed as commonly purchased with this crib that we bought) are only 27" by 51.5"

Fabulous! Feb 02, 2010
By A. Koita
The crib was just as I had pictured it. It was easy to put together. I am 5'3" and most cribs are just too tall for me which is why I chose this crib. It is a perfect height. Definitely recommend this crib for new mommies like me!

Couldn't be more pleased! Mar 13, 2010
By Kathryn Metzger
"Mom_of_7"
I am very happy with this crib. We purchased two for our twins who are about to turn 2. They had slept together up until a few months ago, and we decided it was time to split them up. We wanted matching convertible cribs, and finally chose these after reading lots of reviews and looking at innumerable other selections. I couldn't be more pleased. There are quite a lot of screws, and it did take about an hour per crib to put together, but as long as you lay out all the pieces ahead of time then it goes quite smoothly. It is definitely lower than most cribs, not because the bedding/sleeping section is any smaller, but because it is on very short legs as opposed to higher/taller legs on most cribs. This is actually a good thing... when the twins are old enough to convert these into toddler beds, then I will want them to be closer to the floor and not so high up. The color is quite beautiful...a warm, rich brown and not "cheap" looking at all. The outline/shape of the crib is very graceful and classy. We have both blue and pink themed bedding (for boy/girl twins), and the wood tone goes beautifully with both. As a mom of 7, I have had to purchase my fair share of baby products, and overall I can't enough good things about this crib.
