Choosing the best rated cribs Crib Newborn

The Westport Cot Bed is a minimalist crib that can look gorgeous in a Scandi-style nursery cots. It's also very adaptable with three different mattress support heights and can be converted into the bed of a toddler.

Cribs take up a lot of room, so bassinets might be a better option in case your home is small. Many parents choose a crib because of safety concerns.

Safety

Choosing the best crib newborn is crucial to your baby's health and well-being. You should ensure that it conforms to current safety standards and is free of any dangers that could cause harm to your baby while they sleep. It should be constructed well and sturdy, with no loose pieces that could get caught on clothing or pose a choking risk. It is essential to follow the directions of the manufacturer to set up and use the crib and to regularly inspect the crib.

Be sure to measure the distance between the slats. It shouldn't be more than 2 and 3/4 inches to avoid your baby being able to get their head or limbs trapped between them. You should also be able to easily reach and see your baby in the crib. If you're not then the slats are close together and need to be a bit larger.

Another aspect of the crib to consider is the mattress support system. It is important to adjust the heights so that you can lower the mattress as your child grows. This will reduce the risk of your baby leaving the crib which is a frequent event as they begin to crawl.

A fitted sheet that is secure enough to fit over the bed and a sturdy and stable construction are other safety features you should look for. Select a crib that has fixed sides rather than one that has drop sides. Drop sides could be dangerous for your child. You should also be in the same bedroom as your baby until they are old enough to be able to sleep on their own.

Last but not least, make sure the crib is removed from radiators and windows, and that hanging items such as blind cords or curtains are kept out of reach. You should also remove anything that could create danger of choking such as pillows or blankets. Be careful when purchasing used cribs as they may not meet the current safety standards or have been recalls.

Design

It is important to keep in mind that cribs may appear identical, but they must adhere to strict safety standards. This is why the majority of the cribs we reviewed have a similar design to ensure consistency of structural solidity. The majority of cribs have circular bars without gaps or rough surfaces that could catch the baby or squeeze them. We also evaluated each crib and rated it for its user-friendliness and assembly. We suggest choosing the crib with less parts to avoid confusion.

One of our favorite cribs is the Evolur Sprout Crib, which is designed with an elegant, contemporary style and comes in a variety of colors, including two-toned. It also comes with a universal mattress fit and is Greenguard Gold certified to have minimal volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that could release gas into the nursery.

Another option is the Stork Craft Equinox 3-in-1. This crib is sleek and modern with minimal details, making it perfect for modern nursery. The crib comes in various colors and has four different mattress heights, so your baby can use it from the time of birth to toddler. We tried the crib and found it to be extremely sturdy and stable, with no flexing or creaking when a toddler was seated inside.

Convertible cribs are a great option if you plan to have more children. Many of these options transform into a toddler bed and later a full-size bed offering excellent longevity for the money. Our test parents gave the Sweet2Sleep Crib high marks as an example of a convertible bed. The side rails that slide down were loved by a lot of parents for making feeding at night more secure and easy. They also noted that the crib offered enough room for the baby to rest comfortably while mom and dad were asleep.

If you are looking for a classic style DaVinci's Carter's Colby 4-in-1 is a great option. It is less expensive than the Stork Craft and is a classic design that is compatible with most nursery decors. It has three different mattress heights however, some parents and toddlers might consider it too shallow.

Mattress

Babies are messy and a washable crib mattress is a must. Spitting up from diapers and baby spit can cause mattresses to become dirty and damp, resulting in mildew or other bacteria that can affect infants. Choose a mattress that can be cleaned with a cloth or cleaned with mild cleaner, and choose a waterproof mattress cover to prevent liquids from getting into the mattress and causing health issues.

Find a mattress that is that is rated for up to 10 years so it is suitable for toddlers. Many of the products that we have reviewed are reversible, with a toddler and infant side. This lets you use them from birth up until your child is old enough to be their own bed size.

A mattress that is firm for the crib is best, as it will support their spines as they are developing. A mattress that is firm and sturdy will also lower the chance of SIDS. This is due to the fact that mattresses that are soft increase the possibility that a child's head will sink into it.

Examine the label on a firm mattress to ensure it is in compliance with Consumer Product Safety Commission standards. The CPSC requires that mattresses be tested for the possibility of flammability, waterproofing lead, as well as other chemicals that could pose risk to infants. There are also certifications such as Greenguard, CertiPUR and GOTS which prove that the mattress has been tested for volatile organic compounds that can affect infants' nervous and respiratory systems.

The weight of the crib mattress is a further factor to consider. If you're unable to lift heavy objects or don't want to move a heavy item, you may want an easier mattress. For instance the Newton Wovenaire is incredibly light at just 8 pounds, while the Naturepedic Organic Breathable Crib Mattress Dual Firmness weighs 20 pounds, which makes it the heaviest in this review. It is also made of foam instead of inner woven-core, making it easier to maneuver when compared to the heavier coil mattress.

Assembly

A crib that is easy to put together is ideal for new parents. Choose a crib with hardware that is securely secured with without sharp edges or rough spots that could irritate your Baby beds's skin. Avoid cribs with drop-sides and headboard/footboard cuts -- these features aren't up to the safety standards of today.

If you decide to purchase a convertible crib, you'll need to purchase an additional kit to convert it into a toddler bed. Most manufacturers offer these kits on their own. These kits are typically inexpensive and will assist your child to make the transition to a larger bed more smoothly.

Convertible cribs are a great investment for families who have several children. These cribs are designed to last and typically can be transformed into an infant bed, daybed or a full-size bed.

The DaVinci Jaden 4-in-1 crib is solid-wood crib which is GREENGUARD Gold-certified and comes with four mattress heights. It has a traditional style and is available in white or slate grey to match almost any nursery decor. The crib comes with locking wheels that allow you to easily move it from room to room and accommodates most standard twin mattresses. The crib took our test subjects just 23 minutes to put together.

The Sprout Crib, another top-rated crib, is made of sustainable harvested Baltic birch. It is compliant with all U.S. safety standards, in addition to the standards of Australia, Canada, and Europe. It has a simple and stylish design that will be a perfect fit with any bedroom décor. The Sprout is among the tiniest cribs we've test at 6kg, which makes it easy to move around. It also comes with an ideal travel bag.

A runner-up in our tests The Oeuf Modern Crib is built from sustainably sourced New Zealand pine. It has been awarded numerous awards from various parenting magazines like BabyCenter and Babble. It has a medium-height profile and can be transformed from an infant crib into a toddler bed with or without a rail. It is simple to put together and has a lot of visual appeal.
