Graco Shelby Classic 4 in 1 Convertible Crib Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)With twin boys coming I wanted something reasonably priced that looked nice and didn't take up too much space like the Lifetime cribs we've seen at the baby stores.This crib is not only so beautiful in person but it was a breeze to put together.I did it with my stepdaughter while I was 7 months pregnant with twins.And we did two of them!The color matches the Leksvik "Antique" furniture I bought from Ikea perfectly!We have two guest rooms with furniture and full size solid wood beds so we didn't want to spend alot on furniture that we wouldn't need when they get bigger.I love that this crib converts so they can continue to share a room until they are out of the toddler stage (mainly for the ease of us parents who have to respond to the needs of two babies/toddlers at once).I can't recommend it enough and NO ONE should be disappointed with this crib.It does sit lower than alot of other cribs, but my husband is 6'2 and he has no problem with it.It only takes 2 seconds to bend over and pick up a baby or put a pacifier back in their mouth.I highly recommend this beautiful practical crib!

DaVinci Kalani Convertible Baby Crib Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was on the fence about spending $600 on a solid crib or this one.I finally decided on this one because as it turned out, the expensive Sorelle also used cam-locks on most of their cribs.So that was the deal breaker.The Kalani is sturdy despite the few cam-locks.Grandpa had no problem with the assembly and finished within an hour.This is for my 3rd child as I converted the old one already.Features that were hard to find in one crib but offered in this one:

1. rich cherry finish that complements other cherry furniture in the baby's room.

2. heavy and sturdy

3. 4 height settings.Perfect for a shorty like me to easily set down a sleepy baby.most cribs only offer 3 settings that are either too far apart or does not make much of a difference.

4.mattress springs.i don't like slats or MDF panel to support my bouncing baby boy.slats are a pain to adjust and MDP could slip and slide around.

5. toddler rail is included, which saves a hundred bucks.

6. converts to a head and footboard sleigh bed.

Cons:
Nothing for the crib.But I would not spend $$ on the furniture accessories from DaVinci.$400 bucks for baby size dressers?MDF and cheaply made?I would recommend going to a furniture store and purchase a real dresser for less or at least comparable that will outlast the crib stage.I have Broyhill dresser, chest, and nightstand for his room that matches the crib and I know will last after he's done with the crib (off to college and converted back to a guest room).

Another recommendation:
corner changing table in cherry.I don't recall the brand but the color match is great and can be used as a credenza once potty trained.fits nicely in a corner, does not take up much space.I don't like the DaVinci changing table as it looks silly to use it as anything else with that immovable side rail.

Crib bumper: PBkids- super thick and 'cushiony' or RHbabyandchild- cover removes for easy washing.

I'll post a photo once all the decor is up.So, good luck and congrats on the new baby!
