Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Our daughter's nursery doubles as a guest room (with sleeper sofa) so we didn't want a large, traditional, crib. Instead, I was looking for something that had clean lines and was very practical for her and us when friends/family came to visit but stayed in the room. She's now 6 months old (15 lbs and 25 3/4 inches long) so it was definitely time for her to move beyond sleeping in the bassinet and make the transition to sleeping in a crib. Living in a condo, we are always thinking about ways to maximize storage and save space. The fact that this crib could be rolled from the guest room/nursery, into our bedroom at night to ease the transition for our daughter was a HUGE ADVANTAGE. As for it's size, it's spacious in my opinion and should last her into early toddlerhood (2 - 2 and 1/2 years old perhaps). But, by then...she'll be making yet another transition to a toddler bed and we can simply fold this crib and pack it away until baby #2 needs to use it :) Right now, it's perfect for her and is a little longer than two and 1/2 standard size pillows placed side by side. I've included some pictures to give you an idea of the crib's length and width using household items (two pillows)--sometimes that's a better visual than just reading dimensions. Initially, we had the crib/mattress on the higher setting simply because we though about putting some cute storage bins underneath. There was plenty of room for that. But, suddenly we realized our daughter began to get curious and pull up against the sides to look over the rail! At 6 months old, she is SO MUCH MORE MOBILE than other babies her age. Seeing this, we quickly lowered it to the next (and lower) height. The pictures show the higher height though. The crib is sturdy and well made and we couldn't be happier with this purchase.
