Top 5 Recommended Cribs

When you buy a crib you want it to be safe and durable. Make sure you choose a solid wood crib and slat spacing under 2.4 inches wide.

One of our top picks is the Stokke Sleepi Crib. It has four different mattress heights and is constructed out of renewable and sustainable New Zealand Pinewood. It also comes with a toddler rail included.

1. Sturdy

The majority of a baby's time is spent in their time in the crib, so it's important to find one that is solid enough. Find cribs that meet the safety standards and regulations established by the American Academy of Pediatrics, Consumer Product Safety Commission and emphasize structural integrity. Also, consider avoiding older cribs that might have loose parts or rough areas that could cause harm to your child.

Find a solid frame, and avoid slats that are too close as this can pose a risk of death from suffocation. Look for a crib without decorative cutouts, or drop-sides as these features may be dangerous for your child.

Avoid finishes that contain volatile compounds (VOCs) because they could affect your baby cot online’s breathing and sleep. Instead, select a crib that has been certified with Greenguard Gold and uses non-toxic materials. It's also beneficial to select a crib that has a small footprint, since it can reduce the space in your nursery and minimize dust accumulation.

DaVinci Kalani is an excellent choice for a sturdy cheap baby Cots crib as it meets most of our criteria. It is easy to clean and doesn't include exposed hardware that could get stuck on toys or clothing. It also looks fantastic in the majority of rooms. The only drawback is that it doesn't include a toddler rail or as many slats as the other cribs listed in this list.

Another recommended crib is the Stork Craft Tuscany. It's more expensive than other cribs, but it meets all of our criteria and is easy to assemble. It also has only three mattress height levels, which is lower than other cribs, however it might be preferable in the event that you plan to let your child use the crib for a while and wish to have it last longer.

2. Easy to Assemble

Unlike some larger cribs, most modern mini cribs do not require a whole day to assemble. They are ready to use straight out of the box, taking just about 30 minutes to assemble with the tools provided. Some come with a built-in toddler bed conversion kit, which saves the cost of buying separate pieces.

Of course, you should always ensure that the crib is firmly constructed with no gaps or rough areas that could catch your baby cots online. Pay attention to the quality and quantity of the hardware including screws and bolts. Make sure you tighten them securely but not excessively because this could cause the wood to break or strip threads. Also, look for a solid-wood crib, which is considered safer than metal.

If you're looking at a crib that needs assembly, choose one that comes with easy and simple instructions. Some manufacturers offer videos for those who are not familiar with working with furniture pieces. A good manual will include a list with the necessary supplies, such as screws and washers.

Beyond design, size is another factor to consider. A crib should be big enough to accommodate your child, but not too big that it will not fit through a standard doorway. Also, be wary of using hand-me-downs, as older cribs might not meet the current safety standards.

The Storkcraft Equinox 3 in 1 is a great choice for those who are looking for a modern and sleek crib.

3. Convertible

As opposed to car seats and strollers cribs don't come with many "features." However it doesn't mean that parents shouldn't consider other factors like design, cost and the length of time the crib lasts. Consider an adjustable crib if you want a crib that lasts well into the age of toddlerhood. This will save space and money, making it easier to change the mattress as your baby grows.

While most cribs that convert into a bed of a larger size feel like an afterthought--you simply take off the side and replace it with a longer rail, the Oeuf design is a sleek, quality-made crib that transforms into a bed frame.

It's simple to put together and sturdy, even for parents who aren't skilled. It also has three different mattress heights you can adjust that allows you to start your child in a low spot that's easy for caregivers to lift and raise as they get older.

It is also easy to set up and comes with a set of toddler conversion rails. This means that you don't have to purchase them separately. The only downside is that it has some exposed hardware, which could be a problem for some.

4. Eco-Friendly

Eco-friendly cribs can be a win-win for everyone. They provide a safe sleeping environment for your child, while also promoting sustainable environmental practices. They are free of harmful chemicals and emissions that are found in other cribs, as well as toxic substances like PVC, phthalate MDF, and lead. Eco-friendly cribs are constructed from solid wood, sustainable and renewable materials and have simple designs. They are usually easy to assemble and convert, and a few come with dressers or changing tables attached that can save space in the nursery.

Certain brands offer eco-friendly cribs that are designed to grow with your child, converting to an infant bed, daybed or a full-size bed. Some cribs might have additional features, such as a built in changing tables or storage compartments. They should be sturdy and durable to withstand repeated use and clean. The best eco-friendly Baby Cot cribs are constructed of non-toxic organic materials with a low-VOC coating.

The crib also features an optional reflux leg that can be attached to the side of the crib to create a gentle slope for babies suffering from reflux.

5. Safety First

When selecting a crib, security should be the primary priority. Make sure that the crib is well-constructed and sturdy, with secure hardware and well-fitting fittings. Also, make sure it meets current CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) guidelines: Less than 2.375 inches of space between the slats (that's approximately the size of a soda can), no decorative cutout designs in the footboard or headboard and corner posts that are flush with the end panels or are very tall. Anything between can pose the risk of strangulation.

Also ensure that all toys are kept away from the crib since they can be choking or suffocation hazards. Choose a baby monitor with a clear line of sight so that it doesn't interfere with your view. Also, make sure all cords are not within reach of your child and are securely connected. Never place pillows, blankets, or positioners inside the crib. These items can pose the risk of choking or suffocation and could be thrown off by your child or pushed down by older siblings.

Also, avoid using older cribs as they may have construction elements that are outdated and could result in injuries. Even if a crib appears in great condition, the slats could be too wide, or they might be missing hardware. Also, old cribs could contain lead-based paint or have loose, dangerous screws or bolts.

The Stork Craft Evolur offers a lot of features at a low price, but it might be too much for people who want a minimal look. Other options like the Dream On Me Ashton 4 in 1 or the DaVinci Carter's 4-in 1 offer a similar design but without the bells and whistles.
