XP: Crib questions

SFAug07

I have narrowed down the choice of cribs to the following (all convertible): DaVinci Kalani , Sorelle Sophia or Babi Italia Espresso Pinehurst Lifetime Convertible Crib Does anybody have any insight/experience with these (good or bad)? Or know how they are rated on Consumer Reports? I read the online reviews where I could find them and they all seem to be rated fairly high, but wanted to get some additional insight from all of you helpful girls. TIA!

Hey girl! That's so funny- we have the same taste in cribs! I am just starting to research all of this myself so I couldn't tell you yet. I feel like such a dorky newbie

I read somewhere below that bumpers were bad. I had no idea. I seriously need to start researching asap.

I was in BRU a few weeks ago and saw an Espresso crib that also had a dresser to match. I loved it because the dresser was sort of like a dresser with a bookshelf on top. What made it cool was it was a changing table but it was just as easily a dresser (when baby doesn't need a changing table anymore). I looked online but couldn't find it. I am going to have to go back to BRU to find out the style name. Anyway, good luck!

I can't remember where I read this, but I did read someplace that Sorrelle products are made by the same company that manufactures Munire furniture (I have a Munire crib and saw an almost identical one at BuyBuyBaby under the Sorrelle name, for what that's worth). From what I've heard, that company makes high quality furniture.
