Re: storkcraft nursery set??

  • I went with Storkcraft nursery furniture.  Storkcraft is a VERY popular brand in Canada.  I chose a different model crib, but the same dresser/changer combo, although we chose not to get the hutch.  The crib is super easy to put together and the wood finishes are quite nice.  The dresser/changer is not solid wood.  The top of the dresser and tower, the drawer fronts and the cabinet door are all solid wood.  Most of the remaining pieces are MFD with wood veneer on the exterior (and sometimes interior) facing sides.  I put both the crib and the dresser together myself without too much trouble (my hubby is assembly challenged).  I will warn you there are TONS of pieces (screws, nuts, bolts, washers, etc) for the dresser/changer and the instructions have no written description, but the pictures are easy to follow.  If you want to see your model in person, goto the storkcraft site and look for a dealer near you.

  • thanks! It seems like such a great set and it comes with the conversion rails which im findiing isnt happening too much anymore. DS has a beautiful childcraft set and DD has Jardine set. I really wish I picked a different set for DD. it knicks very easily and almost all of thier cribs have been recalled Ours so far has not.

    Im going to check out the storkcraft site. Thanks again :)

  • I got the Storkcraft Aspen set in Cherry and am VERY happy with it!  There were a couple damaged peices in the one box and we had to request new ones and that could take a couple of weeks.... so I'm glad I got an early start!!

  • I have the Storkcraft Aspen crib and the Storkcraft Beatrice combo dresser/hutch. I got them for my first DS and have not had any issues whatsoever. I love them and would buy them again if I needed to.

  • I actually just sent my friend a review for Stork Craft so here it is....

    Stork Craft

    Stork Craft is probably best known as an entry-level brand that's sold in chain stores like Wal-Mart and Target, as well as Babies R Us, Costco, JCPenney, and Baby Depot.

    As furniture comes ready to assemble; readers report assembly ranges from difficult to frusterating, thanks to minimal directions and lack of labeling for screws and parts. A siginificant amount of patience is needed.

    So let's talk quality. Parents generally give Stork Craft low remarks, based on reviews posted on our web site. fans like the affordable pricing and the fact that you can order most of this furniture online. But detractors say items often arrived damaged, with missing parts and worse. Stork Craft customer service also came in for criticism, with delays in fixing defective merchandise and parts amount the top gripes.

    Finally, Stork Craft has downgraded the quality of its cribs in recent years, in our opinion. Example: gone are the spring mattress supports. Now Stork Craft used a MDF board to support the mattress, which is not our preferred choice.

    Stork Craft competes against Million Dollar Baby (Da Vinci), Graco (made by Bonavita) and Butterfly Living in this price range. We'd recommend any of these companies over Stork Craft.

    Bottom line: If you have your heart set on this brand, stick with the low-price items (the $150 cribs at Wal-Mart are a good bet). Skip the dressers, glider rockers and anything else expensive (those $250+ cribs). And be sure to set your expectations accordingly. Rating: C
