Pros: Sturdy, Beautiful Craftsmanship, Easy to Assemble
Best Uses: Toddlers, Newborn, Infants
Describe Yourself: First Time Parent

For the price, it is a pretty good crib. I was worried about stability with these more affordable cribs but it is stable enough. This crib (with its basic design) is perfect for our small space. It's a great color too. My only problem is that the mattress is not a snug fit to the crib but I'm not sure if it's the mattress or the crib that's at fault.

(below is not part of the official review for the crib)

I know that the fit of the mattress is like the first thing I should check.. we bought our mattress at walmart and we chose the most expensive there (but it's still way cheap compared to others). I'm not happy at all about the mattress. The brand is Simmons Maxipedic Extra Firm Support. Apparently, Maxipedic is their cheap line and it really feels and looks like a cheap mattress. When you test the firmness of the mattress at the edges, it's okay (that's why we bought it).. but when you try putting a weight down the middle of the mattress, it goes way down that I'm wondering if they know the meaning of extra firm. I would have returned it but my hubby already broke down the huge mattress box into tiny pieces that would fit our condo trash chute. Anyway, all this rant is supposed to explain why I'm more inclined to think that the wrong fit is because of the mattress and not the crib.
