New Davinci crib rating?

karelaorange

I have a favor to ask... I don't intend to buy the new Baby Bargains, but I'm curious what the Davinci cribs were rated in the new edition.  They weren't rated very highly in the last one, but online user ratings seem to be quite good.  Could some kind soul tell me if the new Baby Bargains rating is any different?  TIA.

B- for shoddy quality.

It got a B- in the new edition, they dont like that they use Asian pine which is softer and more susceptible to damage. They have never had a safety recall which is good.

No idea what the new rating is, but we have 2 DaVinci Cribs (both the Anastasia model) and have benn nothing but happy with them. We bought ours in 2005 and 2007 though.

Hmmm... thanks for looking this up.  All the user reviews seem to be so positive and they're some of the few modern cribs I can find in a reasonable price range.  Now I'm torn.

i have the da vinci emily crib - got it about 10 weeks ago. consumer reports had that as their best bargain and since they liked it, i figured that was worth something. the directions are awful, but after you put it together, it looks beautiful!

i have the davinci kalani crib in DS room and love it!  super sturdy and gorgous.  the wood does scratch kinda easily, but that's the least of my worries.  the fact that they have never had a recall is really important to me. 

now simplicity brand?  wouldn't touch those with a ten foot pole.
