Top 5 Recommended Cribs

You want a crib that's sturdy and safe. Look for solid construction and slats less than 2.4 inches apart.

Stokke Sleepi Crib is one of our favorites. It has four different mattress height settings and is made from sustainable and renewable New Zealand pinewood. It also includes an infant rail.

1. Sturdy

It is essential that the crib is sturdy because babies will spend most of the time in it. Find cribs that meet the safety standards and regulations formulated by the American Academy of Pediatrics, Consumer Product Safety Commission and emphasize structural integrity. Avoid cribs that have loose parts or rough areas which could hurt your child.

Choose a solid frame and avoid slats which are too close together, as this could increase the risk of death from suffocation. Also, you should look for a crib that does not feature decorative cut-outs or drop sides, as these can pose dangerous for your child.

Also, avoid finishes that contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as they could affect your baby cots online's breathing and sleep. Select a crib certified by Greenguard Gold that uses non-toxic materials. Choose a crib that has tiny footprint to help minimize space and reduce dust build-up in your nursery.

The DaVinci Kalani is a great choice for a solid crib as it fulfills the majority of our criteria. It is easy to clean and doesn't have exposed hardware that could be stuck on toys or clothing. It also looks fantastic in most rooms. The only downside is that it doesn't come with a toddler rail and it doesn't have the same number of slat levels like other cribs on this list.

Stork Craft Tuscany is another crib that we recommend. It's more expensive than other cribs on this list, but it fulfills all our criteria and is easy to assemble. It also has only three mattress height levels, which is lower than other cribs, but it might be preferable in the event that you plan to let your child use the crib for a while and want it to last longer.

2. Easy to Assemble

A majority of modern mini cribs do not need the time of a whole day to put together unlike some of the larger cribs. They are ready to use out of the box, and take just about 30 minutes to assemble with the tools included. Some even have a built-in toddler bed conversion kit which will save you the cost and hassle of purchasing separate pieces later.

Of course, you must always check that the crib is firmly built without gaps or rough areas that could catch your baby. Pay attention to the quality and quantity of the hardware including screws and bolts. Be sure to tighten them securely but not too much as this can cause the wood to crack or tear the threads. Choose a solid wood crib since it is believed to be safer than metal.

If you're considering a crib that requires an assembly, look for one with simple and straightforward instructions. Some manufacturers provide an instructional video that can be helpful for those who might not be familiar with furniture pieces. A good cribs guide should also include a list of tools, including washers and screws.

Size is also crucial. A crib should be big enough to accommodate your child, but not so big that it will not fit through the standard doorway. Be cautious when using cribs that are older, as they may not meet the current safety standards.

The Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 is a great option for those who want an elegant, modern crib. It has three mattress heights and is constructed from sturdy, sustainable New Zealand pinewood. It has more exposed hardware than some of the other options on this list however, and some customers have complained that it was more difficult to put together than they needed to due to mislabeled parts and unclear instructions.

3. Convertible

In contrast to car seats and strollers cribs aren't equipped with many "features." However, that doesn't mean parents shouldn't take into consideration other factors such as aesthetics, price and the length of time the crib lasts. If you're looking for a crib that will last through toddlerhood and beyond, think about purchasing one that converts into a full-size bed or daybed. This will reduce your costs as well as space, making it easier to switch out the mattress as your child grows.

While most cribs that can be converted into a full-size bed feel like an afterthought--you simply take the side off and replace it with a larger rail -- Oeuf has designed a stylish high-quality crib that can transform into a bed frame. It's GREENGUARD Gold certified, minimal, and looks nice in almost every nursery. You can also bundle it with matching trundle beds or dressers to create a seamless design.

The crib is much more sturdy than other cribs in our tests. It might take up more space in your nursery, but it'll last for a long time. Parents have praised it as sturdy and easy to put together, even for those who aren't skilled. It also comes with three different mattress heights you can adjust that means you can begin your child in a low, comfortable position that's easy for caregivers cots to tots lift and then raise as they get older.

This convertible crib is more traditional than the other two cribs on this list. It's ideal for parents who are looking for a crib that can fit in a formal nursery. It is also easy to assemble, and comes with a set of toddler conversion rails. This makes it unnecessary to purchase rails separately. It does have some exposed metal hardware, which could be an issue for certain people.

4. Eco-Friendly

Eco-friendly cribs are an ideal solution for everyone. They provide a safe, comfortable sleeping space for your child, while also promoting sustainable environmental practices. They are free of harmful emissions and chemicals that can be found in other cribs, and also toxic substances like PVC, phthalate MDF and lead. Eco-friendly cribs are made of solid wood, renewable and sustainable materials and have a minimalist design. They are generally easy to build and convert, and a few come with an adjustable dresser or changing tray attached, which can help save space in the nursery.

Some brands offer eco-friendly cribs that can be converted into a toddler bed or a full-size bed. Some cribs may have extra features like a built in changing tables or storage compartments. Whatever their capabilities to convert they should be strong and durable enough to withstand frequent use and regular cleaning. The most eco-friendly cribs are made from non-toxic, organic materials and have a low-VOC finish.

Bloom Alma crib is a great example of a eco-friendly crib. The model is constructed of sustainable birchwood, and is free of harmful components or finishes. It is Greenguard Certified for low chemical emissions and is compliant with all safety standards. It is a great option for parents looking for an eco-friendly crib with modern, sleek design and is easy to clean.

Another option is the Namesake crib, which has a timeless style and high-quality construction at a reasonable price. The sturdy slats made of high-quality wood, are Greenguard Gold certified to have low emissions of chemicals. The crib is equipped with an reflux foot that can be affixed to the side to create an even slope for infants with reflux.

5. Safety First

When selecting a crib, security should be the primary priority. Make sure the crib is strong and well-constructed with well-fitting and sturdy hardware. Also, ensure that it is in line with current CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) guidelines: Less than 2.375 inches of space between the slats (that's about the width of a soda container), no decorative cutout designs on the footboard or headboard, and corner posts that are flush with the end panels or are very tall. Anything in between poses an opportunity for strangulation.

Likewise make sure that all toys are out of the crib as they can be choking or suffocation hazards. Choose a Baby Cot monitor with a clear line of sight so it does not hinder your view. Also, make sure that all cords are out of the reach of your baby and securely attached. Don't keep any pillows, blankets or positioning devices in the crib. These can cause the risk of choking or suffocation and can be kicked off by your child or pushed down by older siblings.

Also, do not use old cribs as they may contain outdated features that could result in injuries. Even if the crib is in excellent condition, the slats may be too wide or it might be lacking hardware. Old cribs could also have lead-based paint, or loose, dangerous screws and bolts.

The Stork Craft Evolur is an excellent value, but could be too much for those who prefer a minimal look. Other options, like the Dream On Me Ashton 4-in-1 and the Carter's by DaVinci Colby 4-in-1 have the same style, but without all the bells and whistles.
