i'm having trouble finding the right crib for my baby. Safety is key. I've been looking at 4-in-1 cribs. But, my boyfriend doesn't think those products are safe. I've tried looking on www.Recalls.gov but, there are so many products. what's your advice?

The 4 in 1 convertible cribs, in my opinion, are wonderful! If they would've had them when I had my daughter I would've gotten one. My friend currently has one and it's working out great...............well, let me rephrase that.....it's working out great when she actually lets the baby sleep in the crib instead of picking her up every time she cries and then let's her sleep in her arms for 3 or 4 hours. My daughter actually got this same little baby to sleep in the crib for about 4 hours with no problem. But they are great beds, because they are beautiful for one, space savers, and they'll save money in the long run. Just make sure you purchase the extra railings if they don't come with it as it may not be available down the road when you need to convert the crib.

Good luck and congratulations!

My son is only 7 1/2 months old right now. We currently co-sleep (because we nurse and it's been so easy and we love it!) but I want to start transition him into his crib we have for him. It's a convertible crib that transitions into a toddler bed...but I'm not sure how long I should have him in the crib before I turn it into the toddler bed. When did you switch it with your baby?

I let my daughter stay in her crib until she climbed out of it. Once she did that I knew it was time for a change...it took a few nights for her to actually stay in the toddler bed...but now we dont have any problems. This happened a few months after her 2nd bday

I am 5 months pregnant and looking into buying my crib!!!

I would like a convertible one but would like the opinions of experienced mothers!!!

Please help!!!

Also are nursery's in a box any good???

Thanks!!!

I'm buying a crib for my baby in the next month! I already know which one I want. I read alot of reviews about it and it sounds wonderful. It's $140 at babies r us, and the dresser is $99! So that's totally cheap!

contact storkcraft, if you still have the little brackets that hold the mattress up check them because a ton of storkcraft craft cribs made in that time period have recently been recalled because of the brackets. Storkcraft will send you new brackets too.

Is a convertible crib worth the extra money up front. The extra cost of the crib plus the cost of the rails needed to convert the crib to a full-size bed? Did the crib look good enough after usage that you wanted to convert it to a full bed or was it beat up?

I see a lot of convertible cribs at garage sales, so I suspect a lot of folks prefer their kids to go into twin sized beds, not full sized. Consider that in your decision.

Look at the convertibles at www.jcpenny.com. Some of those with graceful arches (such as Monterey Convertible) would look outstanding as a full-sized bed. Many would just be plain dull. Can't get character sheets either for full-sized beds (Dora the Explorer is only in twin, for instance).

Hi, I bought this crib for my daughter 4 years ago, then I disassemble it after I bought her a twin size bed. Now I need to assamble it for the new baby and I can't find the manual for the crib. Does anyone which website or phone number I should call. I bought this from k-mart. I am also attaching the picture so you can know what it look like

Go back to K-MART and ask them!

I am a furniture designer and I am interested in creating a nursery line. Do you Moms/Dads have any suggestions on how to make my cribs more convenient for you? I love modern furniture, so definitely this
line will be modern as well. I am also planing to make it eco-friendly, and convertible (crib-daybed). What would you like to see in the future cribs? Any problems with you current cribs, suggestions? THANK
YOU!

I know a lot of parents don't feel that the sliding rails on cribs are really safe, so what if instead of the rail sliding down the top piece (like a foot or two) kind of folded down and then locked into place. I don't think I've ever seen a crib that did that so it might be a rather unique feature.

I've been looking at places like Target and Babies R Us. I want a convertible crib, I like the sleigh look. Thanks.

Also, do consider places like Wal Mart. They have a good return policy, and places like Costco or Sam's Club may have good deals as well! Good luck!

Definitely convertible, it saves so much money. It can be their bed for their whole lives.

Some how make it hard to scratch/dent.

One side being able to be lowered would be a huge plus which I don't have.
