Buying a Great Crib
A great crib ([https://www.Cots4tots.co.uk/](https://www.cots4tots.co.uk/)) is essential for every nursery. Parents want a crib which meets strict safety regulations.
They are also looking for one that looks stylish and is easy to assemble. It is also important to check whether the bed comes with multiple mattress heights, and if it is able to be converted into a daybed or toddler.
Aesthetics
The best cribs will have a style that matches the décor of your nursery. They also feature a timeless style that won't change when your baby gets older. Some might prefer a more modern style while others might prefer something traditional. You can choose from a range of colors and finishes to complement the style of your nursery. Certain cribs come with additional features that set them apart from the competition.
The Evolur model, for instance, has a mesh all-around which improves airflow. Parents reported that it helped keep their children at a healthy temperature during nap and bedtime. It has six different mattress heights that can be adjusted to meet a variety of sleeping preferences. It can also be tilted to alleviate reflux and colic. Its minimalist design makes it an ideal choice for smaller nurseries. It is more expensive than some other alternatives.
The DaVinci Jayden is a stylish crib. The solid wood crib can be converted into a toddler or daybed by purchasing separate conversion kits. It's the classic high-back design, and its furniture choices include a dresser as well as a changing table. This crib's shorter sides are ideal for parents who are smaller and don't want to reach over the rails to collect their child.
The Stokke Sleepi Bed is another versatile option. It can be used for a crib, bassinet or a toddler bed. The circular shape creates a space similar to a womb for your baby. It is also easy to move since it is equipped with wheels and a narrower width. The minimalist design means you do not need to put on a lot blankets or toys. You can also hang a canopy and mobile with the accessories.
The Babyletto Hudson 3-in-1 crib is another great crib for a small nursery. Its sleek and simple design looks clean and has an extra-wide mattress. However, it's more expensive than other cribs and requires a toddler conversion kit. It's a lot of exposed hardware that some parents might find distracting.
Safety
When purchasing a crib it is essential to think about the level of safety that the crib is. While it may seem a little trivial, every aspect of the crib's layout should be designed to ensure safety. For example, the slats should not be greater than 3/8 inches apart (about the size of a soda container) or the corners should not be higher than the top rail of the mattress support. There should also be no decorative cutouts that could cause a baby to fall over or get their arms stuck. It is recommended to go for new products that meet current safety standards, however when you do utilize second-hand equipment, make sure it's not been recalled and adheres to all guidelines set by the manufacturer.
Send in the registration cards that come with cribs and baby gear to ensure that you are informed in the event of a recall. It's also an excellent idea to be aware of cardiopulmonary reperfusion (CPR) and the Heimlich maneuver in case of emergency.
When choosing a crib for your baby, avoid placing soft toys or other materials in the crib. These toys can choke the infant and raise the chance of sudden infant death syndrome or SIDS. The crib should not be equipped with any pillows or bumpers as these can lead to death by suffocation.
You should also choose cribs that have two or four different height settings. This allows you to lower the mattress as your child grows, to prevent them from climbing out of the crib and getting injured if they fall while trying to stand up or crawl. The mattress support is usually set at the highest point for newborns. However it is recommended to lower it as your child grows.
It's also a good idea to examine the crib on a regular basis for any loose or cracked metal hardware. Bolts and nails can be loose over time. It is important to check them every week.
Easy Assembly
The cribs that have bars on the front and frame-and-panel construction on all three sides are the easiest to assemble. This design permits simple woodworking and doesn't need any complex joinery or specialized hardware. This crib design can be easily painted or stained if you are a DIYer. The most important thing to keep in mind when assembling a crib is to follow the instructions thoroughly. If you do not follow the instructions correctly, it could endanger your baby's safety. Most of the cribs you purchase will come with their own set of instructions but it's a good idea to do doing a quick search on the internet to find out more information about the specific model you're using.
When you are choosing a crib it is crucial to think about how easily it can be moved. The majority of cribs are too large to fit through standard doorways which is why you'll need to disassemble it if you want to move it from one spot in your home to another. This can be a pain and could cause frustration, especially if you're in a rush to get your baby to sleep.
If you're on the hunt for cribs that can be easily moved, you should look for one with wheels or a stand. These options will allow you to easily move the crib from one place to another and keep it tidy and secure. Also, make sure to choose a crib that has a minimalist design. So you can easily decorate it to match your nursery theme.
It is easy to put together and easily disassembled. It's also lightweight and easy to move, so you can put it together in a matter of minutes. The best cribs come complete with all the hardware you require and there's no need to worry about extra parts. But, make sure to check the hardware regularly because nails and bolts can become loose when used.
One of our favorite cribs is the Pottery Barn Kids Larkin. It's a design inspired by Craftsman and is constructed of poplar, a hard wood that can withstand dents better than pine, which is which is a softwood. It's durable enough to last through several children and is a beautiful addition to any nursery.
Cost
Some cribs can cost a very large sum however, you can find one that fits your budget. If you're looking to buy a crib that will last for a long time and be passed through generations, look for a crib that has a solid construction and a timeless look. Look for quality wood and avoid particle board. Avoid rough or cutout areas that could create a choking risk for your infant.
A crib that can grow with your child is a good option, so think about buying one that can be transformed into a toddler bed and later, into the size of a bed. You won't need to buy a new crib for your child when they get older.
Pottery Barn Kids has a large selection of cribs starting at under $600. You can either build it yourself with UPS delivery, or opt for Pottery Barn Kids’ in-home delivery and assembly service to have it assembled right in your nursery. There's a crib to fit your style, no matter if you prefer a traditional design or a contemporary one or a more eclectic one.
You can also buy a convertible bed that will fit into any standard mattress. This allows you to continue using the crib as your child develops. These cribs have a dresser and trundle included, so you don't have to purchase additional furniture for your child's bedroom. Some cribs include a rocking mechanism which some parents find relaxing for babies who are fussy and reflux.
The disadvantage of these cribs is that they're larger than standalone cribs, so they'll take up more floor space in your home. You'll have to disassemble the cribs if plan to move them.
You can also find cribs that are GREENGUARD Gold certified that means they've been tested and cleared for over 10,000 chemicals. This certification is important when you're concerned about the environmental impact of your crib and your baby's health.
