A crib is among the most important investments that a new parent makes. Your baby will sleep in it each day until they are able to move to an adult bed or a large kid bed. Because of that, you want a safe crib that is of high-quality and can continue to use for a long time to come.
Cribs are available in various sizes and styles and their features may differ greatly based on the features you're seeking. The type of slats used and the height of the mattress will impact how easy to use and how long a crib lasts. Some cribs also offer a variety of options for conversions that allow you to use them as an e-crib, travel crib, or even a daybed if your little one gets older.

The design of slats, the height of the mattress, the dimensions of the overall design and more affect how easy a crib is to use and how long it can be used.
Certain cribs, such as the Babyletto Hudson 4 in 1 and Delta Children Tribeca, can be transformed into a daybed or toddler bed. However, the majority of cribs require an additional purchase to complete this conversion.

The Storkcraft Equinox is one of the mattress heights with the lowest sitting we've looked at, which could be beneficial if you are short or have a parent with a smaller size. The low height is a plus however it could be a drawback, especially when your baby begins to climb up and climb out of her crib. It is taller than the other cribs in this review, making it harder to reach your child at night.
