I use this crib for my 17 month old son. This crib is beautiful and very sturdy. It was very easy to put together. The wood is on the softer side, as my son was able to knaw on the wood pretty easily when he was teething. I am a pretty tall person and it is difficult for me to reach my son to kiss him while he is sleeping with the mattress all the way down. I

We bought this crib before our son was born 17 months ago. It was the one that felt the sturdiest and looked the best out of all of them on display in the store. And it didn't let us down. We are now expecting baby #2 and are going to purchase it again. No complaints here!

this crib is great - the front doesn't adjust to get your child out though... i am on the short end of the heighth spectrum and it is very hard for me to lay my daughter down to sleep. I had to buy an excersise step to be able to actually lay her down or pick her up when the mattress is all the down. Other than this, this is a awesome crib-would recommend to anyone with a little length to them.

Since my grandma offered to buy me the crib of my choice I really didn't want to pick one that was too expensive but when I saw this one I fell in love with it right away I looked at similiar ones from other manufactures but they could not compare to this one. my hubby and dad put it together didn't take too long. The bumper, mattress and mobile all fit perfectly. You do have to take off the the front piece to adjust the height but there are only three setting so no big deal. I have gotten compliments from everyone that has seen it. My son is almost one and no problems yet.

What a MAJOR disappointment! First the wood on the slats began to split. NO problem the company said. Send us pictures and we'll send you new slats. And they did. No cost. But then the back of the crib began to splinter too. More pictures and they sent us a whole new crib and took the old one away. Maybe third time will be a charm but with so many problems already, is this thing really going to last through her toddler years? I'm doubtful at best.

Great crib! Our little girl is almost 2 years old and still uses it. We bought the toddler conversion last year and it was VERY reasonable - $40 or less! We plan on buying the conversion rails this year. Making this her bed until she moves out :) Just wish you could order it online because our Babies R Us is over 1 hr away.

The crib was easy to put together. The wood is very strong and sturdy. No shaking or anything once it is put together. Very solid! I was concerned my baby would grow out of it quickly, she is still in it! It was very easy to convert to toddler bed. You only had to remove 4 screws and done! The bed is still strong and sturdy. No, I didn't order the toddler rails when I got the bed. I didn't want to pay about 70-80 more for rails when I could use safety first. (Just my thinking, everyone is different). My little girl is now 3.5 and still is using the bed. The material has held up to even her writing her name on it with crayons and a pen. I was able to get it off with 409 with no damage to the wood or its finish. If you are worried about the rails, etc. order them when you order your crib! I didn't use mobile for my baby so I wouldn't know. I did have a toy from Fisher Price I think where you strap it on the side of crib and it looks like an aquarium and had no problems installing that. For the price I paid, I feel it was well made and I feel I have gotten my money's worth almost 4 years later.

This is a beautiful crib, BUT we had two major problems with it.

First, when we got it, the crib came with TWO left sides. We had to get a refund and reorder it in order to get a right side.

Second, 3 of the slats have very sharp edges, which we only discovered the other day when our baby cut a chunk of skin off his big toe (1/4") and had another cut on his 2nd toe. He is only now moving around in the crib and he likes kicking at the slats, so we did not notice it earlier. Because of this we had to get a crib bumper (which was also problematic -- although it fit beautifully when I first got it, it shrank 3" after following the manufacturer's washing instructions).

Although the crib itself is very sturdy and looks beautiful, the manufacturing quality and safety issue cause me to recommend very strongly against this crib, unless you check everything VERY CAREFULLY when you first get it.

I don't have any complaints about this crib. I was even able to attach a mobile to the side(I had read some comments that stated otherwise). But it is true if you are a vertically challenged person, getting the baby out is difficult.

Any reviews about it being hard to assemble suprise me as i found it easy to assemble. This is a good crib worth the money. I like the nice wide rail in the front, a good place to put your elbows. No moving parts make it sturdy and solid, it will take any abuse. Like most cribs, optional parts will turn this into a toddler bed, then to a day bed and then into a twin.
