my granddaughter was born in may we bought her crib at super walmart it is also avaiable on line and they will ship to your house for a charge or to the nearest store for free the crib is by simplicty and it is called nursery in a box it comes with the crib, dressingtable,and a dresser. it sells for $199.00. we checked the reviews on line all but may 3 were positive we thought how good could it be for that price but we were suprised at how good the quality was it comes in natural wood ,white or cherry i think the cherry one was $20.00 more. also as the child grows the bed turns into a toddler bed or day bed.

I know I am a pretty practical person; my kids are adults now; when we bought a crib I did not think it was anything worth spending alot of money on to "look pretty" in a nursery - I just needed it to be safe and functional. The baby doesn't much care:)

We bought our cribs at Babies R Us. We liked them because they converted into toddler beds which saved some money. They will be 6 in December and still able to use the toddler beds.

C. -

After our son's Simplicity crib was recalled, we ended up purchasing a Baby Mod crib for $225 from Walmart (http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=6005.... You can read my review of the crib on Walmart's website here (http://reviews.walmart.com/1336/88c5ca###-###-####c2d9be2....

I originally thought that I would like having the drop-side crib (Simplicity), but when we got the Baby Mod crib which is stationary, I found that I liked it sooo much better! I thought that I wouldn't be able to reach my baby but the different height adjustments for the mattress took care of that concern. This crib is much sturdier than the Simplicity model - it's made of good wood, is a bit larger, and is just put together better than the Simplicity crib. Our crib also came with a rail attachment to convert the crib to a toddler bed when it's time. You can also order the rails to convert the toddler bed to the full-size bed from Walmart's website for about $50.

Don't buy anything from Simplicity - they are out of business now due to so many recalls. The one or two items that haven't been recalled yet probably will be soon.

PM me if you have any other ?'s!

Hello C.,

I got a crib at Mother Hubbards http://www.mhcfurniture.com/michigan.html in Novi. The reason I went with them is the cribs are manufactured in Toronto and they know exactly what the crib is made of (varnish and all). The other name brand cribs, believe it or not, were mostly made in Vietnam, which if fine, but I could not get any sort of understanding of standards. Although they do pass a standard to be sold in the US, I had issues that no one could track down what was used for paint or varnish. Plus there were numerous recalls. Mother Hubbard had one recall - the directions were printed incorrectly for one item. I also got a crib that converts to a full size bed to try and save some cost later.
