How to Choose the best infant cribs (read this blog post from www.metooo.es)

A crib is among the most essential items for your Baby Crib's nursery. It can be difficult to choose the best crib, given so many styles and safety concerns.

Look for cribs that meet the highest safety standards and has no dangling or chewable components. We also recommend a sleek crib that has a variety of mattress sizes and a sleek, modern design.

Safety

When assembling and positioning your baby's crib, be sure to adhere to the safe sleeping guidelines set by the American Academy of Pediatrics. It is crucial to avoid putting any items in the crib of your baby that could potentially cause harm or injury, including pillows, blankets, sheepskins, stuffed toys, and bumper pads (see our complete guide to safe sleep for more details). Teddy bears, dolls, and stuffed animals bigger than 15 inches shouldn't be allowed to sleep in your baby's crib. These items could easily get caught between the crib bars or get stuck within them. They could also be taken in by the mattress.

The best infant cribs are made from safe materials that are free of VOCs and other harmful chemicals. They also adhere to strict federal, state and local requirements for structural safety. Additionally, they're third-party tested for safety and quality (think GREENGAURD gold or ASTM, JMPA, or CPSIA certs!). They're also designed to last and Baby Cot Bed are flexible, allowing them to adapt to your child's needs.

If you're buying a new crib or used, it's important to choose cribs that meet today's rigorous safety standards. Secondhand cribs could become less sturdy over time due to humidity, age and heavy use. This can cause serious dangers to your baby.

The slats on your crib should be no more than 2-3/8 inches (6 centimeters) apart to prevent babies from getting trapped between them and the hardware on the crib should be secured. Examine the slats, mattress support rims and hardware for any damaged or loose components.

It's also wise to stay clear of cribs that were used by children or pets, as their security could have been compromised. Don't buy or accept the crib that has drop-side rails. This feature was banned in 2012 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for safety reasons.

Style

While all cribs have to adhere to strict safety standards, you'll find a lot of design differences. Some are purely aesthetic, such as whether the slats are the same length or spaced closer together, while others have an impact on how easy the crib is to maintain and use. Some features like drop sides and finials are not safe and should not be used. Other features, like adjustable mattress height and wheels, are sought-after by a lot of parents.

One thing to be aware of is that a crib is meant exclusively for sleeping infants, so it's not an ideal place to store toys or clothes. You can also put a crib on your registry to get assistance from family and friends in the event you need help.

Cribs come in many different styles, but we prefer ones that blend style with functionality. For instance the Storkcraft Equinox 3-in-1 crib is simple and stylish. It's also GREENGUARD Gold certified, which we consider essential for any toxic-free baby product, and it can convert into a toddler bed and daybed (toddler conversion kit available separately).

Some cribs feature an older-style look like the DaVinci Jayden 4-in-1. It's a classy crib that can be incorporated into large nursery spaces, however it takes up more space than smaller minimalist options and has exposed hardware that some find distracting. It has only three levels of mattress which is less than the competition's number. It's also not as durable as our other picks.

Another option that has contemporary design is the Babyletto Hudson. Its hidden hardware and all-round mesh increase airflow and allow you to see baby, which Dr. Casares says is an important aspect for new parents. It can also be elevated to a higher position to help reduce colic and reflux and colic, making it suitable for babies ranging from birth to 6 months. It's also GREENGUARD certified gold and comes with a matching mattress. It's important to remember that this bed is more expensive than the other top options and requires an additional conversion kit for toddler cot beds.

Adjustable Mattress Height

If your baby is sleeping in their crib, it is important that the mattress is the correct level. This will prevent your child from escaping the crib, which can be risky or even fatal. A mattress that is higher also helps keep your child from overheating or suffocating.

A quality crib will have slats or railings that are adjustable that allow you to raise or lower the mattress as your baby grows. Most good cribs will also come with a conversion kit, so you can convert the crib into a toddler bed or daybed once your little one outgrows it. In the end, it's best to choose a crib that has been tested and inspected by a third-party organization for safety. This includes the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) seal and GREENGUARD Gold certification that means it has been tested to make sure there are no harmful chemical or other finishes in your baby's sleep space.

The Graco Sweet2Sleep Crib is one of the best cot bed-rated cribs on the market, and it's easy to assemble, with a straightforward design that doesn't have any jarring pieces or parts. The sides of the crib are shorter than most cribs however one tester said that her child did well sleeping in it and remained in good shape when she gave it to a friend following the birth of her second child was born.

Stokke Sleepi Crib is another great option. It features an oval shape which gives it a modern look. It's a little more expensive than other cribs but its durability and features are worth it. It can easily be converted into a toddler bed or bassinet, and it has wheels that make it easy to move around. It comes with a canopy that can be used to create a space more akin to a womb your baby. It adds a fashionable touch in any nursery.

The only issue with this crib is it doesn't have a mattress, which you'll need to purchase separately. It's a safe and comfortable crib that will be adapted to your child's needs from a newborn to a toddler.

No Dangling or Chewable Components

The safest cribs are those that have no dangling or chewable components. Babies love to grasp things, and if something is hanging from their crib or above them, it could tug on the rails or become a strangulation hazard. If parents decide to decorate their crib with decorative items or toys, they need to make sure that the items are securely attached and are not within Baby's reach.

In addition to the security features of our top cribs for infants, we also consider how simple it is to assemble. The crib should be easy enough to assemble by yourself, without the need for special tools or spending a long amount of time. Many parents report that it takes less than an hour to assemble the modern crib, and the directions are generally simple to follow.

It is crucial to choose a crib that lasts for many years. To ensure longevity, you should choose an adjustable crib that will work from infancy all the way up to the toddler bed, and then a full-size bed.

The Ikea Nestig Cloud crib is our top pick for convertible cribs that can be used as a bassinet during the early years and later converted into an infant bed, a daybed or a large bed. It is designed to last and is available in many colors so you can match it with the theme of your nursery cots's decor.
