So, it's a good crib, very similar to all the other ones out there. I also own a DaVinci Parker crib, and they are practically the same quality wise. The only thing I didn't know about this crib prior to buying it, because I believed it was a 4-in-1, was that the daybed and toddler bed are the same thing. My DaVince crib has a guard rail that I had to purchase separately, but still have for conversion. This crib doesn't have anything. Yu just remove the front part of the bed and that's it. The mid could totally fall out. So I bought one of those attachable guard rails, but I didn't
T notice it's only for twin beds. Not for cribs. So now I'm on the hunt for something that will work...

Graco should really be up front about it and not call it a 4-in-1.

I got this crib when my first kid was born. We went around looking and testing cribs for how sturdy they wore and how easily they scratch, and this was the best and the best price too. Very happy with it. my kids jump in it and everything and still solid. just like any other furniture u got to tighten screws periodically. my kids did chew it and just those marks no other dents or scratches otherwise. wish they had it in white too for if i was to ever have a girl ;) my boys are three and almost two and we are still using it daily.

I love this crib. There is nothing wrong with it. Its a perfect fit in our bedroom. I love the color. The back top piece had a hole drilled in the wrong spot so we put the rest of the crib together and called the company and they sent me a new piece in about 7 days and it was just fine. We just took the other piece off and put this one on and didnt have to take apart the crib. Im glad i got this crib. The price was good at the time but now i see its less :( oh well. I even got the warranty just in case. My kids dad had a little trouble with assembly but it wasnt that bad.

We bought this at a different store on clearance and paid MORE than what I see advertised here....OH WELL.

But in any case, it was VERY easy to assemble and my husband didn't even use the intrusctions until the end to see how it all work together. It does scratch easily but that's to be expected as it's not an $800 crib! I love the style and it ddid not advertise as a covertable which is great because our baby girl has a big sister and they'll be bunking in a few years so we didn't need a lifetime crib. With that said, it is not the highest quality and I would recommend teething guards for baby.

We have had this crib for almost a year now, and we love it. Its clean lines, simple to assemble, simple to change the height on the bed, and overall very pretty to the eye. We have the changing table as well and love that too. The price is just right, not too much but the product isnt cheaply made either! My son loves his crib and has been sleeping in it since 2 months old. Now that i am pregnant with number 2 the only negative i have is getting my son out of the crib with a belly, its just a little too high for me now. However, when I wasnt pregnant i did not have any issues.

Crib shipped fast. Easy to assembly with the directions. Very nice size and get quality for the price.
Have not put the baby in it yet as she has not came yet.

Loved everything about this crib until the springs that hold the mattress broke. There is no reason for metal springs to snap (in half!) after a year. Very dangerous. I hope no one else gets hurt.

The online store is different than in-store. If you actually go to the store, you can order the Conversion Kit for $79.99. I just ordered it today (11/17/2012). The crib is a great value for the price!

This is a good crib until the fact you need to convert it to a toddler bed and there's no conversion kit for this crib?? Why idk but the title is complete false advertisement. I mean you can take the front rail off and lower the mattress but the toddler can still fall off. Cause of the fact this model doesn't offer a side rail. It makes me mad cause this was the whole reason I bought this crib. I thought I had a good deal till now, now I know why it was a lil cheap.

My husband and I bought this crib several months early because we had one of the coupons for 20% off that we really needed to use (babies are sooo expensive). Come 2 months later, my baby shower was right around the corner and I wanted everyone to be able to see the nursery; but because we waited until the last minute to finish everything up, I got stuck putting the crib and the matching changing table together all by myself (my husband did feel horrible though). From my point of view the crib was very easily assembled by myself, and I did it 33 weeks pregnant! The crib was shipped to our local babies r us and we picked it up from there, it arrived in good shape and I have yet to find any flaws. The crib isn't quite as dark as I remember it being in the store (maybe the lighting was different?) but the overall quality seems nice. We also haven't actually put the baby in it yet because he has yet to arrive. But, as for now, I'm very happy with the purchase; I think it looks nice, it's sturdy and nothing beats easy assembly! To be honest, I didn't rate higher because I have nothing else to compare it to; this is the first time either of us have had to purchase/assemble a crib.
