Need clarification with bedding...

Hi ladies!  For those of you who have some spare time, I need some help.  I was looking at Target online for bedding.  The Tiddliwinks Vintage Varsity spoke to me.  I'm wondering though why is it so cheap?  I guess I'm thinking $69 is cheap because I keep seeing bedding that is near $200.  Is this for a full size crib?  Is it crappy for something?  What do you think?  Any advice is appreciated.

Re: Need clarification with bedding...

  • for the reviews of the other styles of the Tiddliwinks products they all seem to have high ratings, and most say good quality...

  • it's cute, but it's only a 3pc so thats why its pretty cheap.. i found a 13 pc set from Geenny on Amazon for $99.00. (reg $250.00) and all the reviews raved about it.

    always read the reviews before buying anything online

  • I've seen some of the Tiddliwinks stuff in person and it doesn't appear to be cheaply made. I would look up reviews on quality before you buy, but overall I think its just not a really expensive brand and the set is only 3 pieces.

    Super cute set though!

  • I would think that it's the same difference between expensive and cheaper normal sheets: quality and thread count and name brand to some extent. I find that I have a hard time buying stuff like this online without first checking it out in person at the store. Edit: I didn't notice it's a 3 piece. That would def be a factor.
  • Ahh... I wasn't thinking about it being only 3 pieces.  I looked up a few other bedding sets after the replies and the more expensive ones definitely have more pieces.  Duh!  That's alright though.  I guess I only need the 3!  Thanks ladies.  If anyone has any other advice though or has this bedding, I'd love to hear about it.

    It seems fine to me. If you're interested, I know www.amazon.com also has that bedding, along with mobile, diaper stacker, etc.. all accessories. (just incase target doesn't have it all)

  • I would think it's so cheap because it's only a 3 piece set. Mine was $175 or something and it's a 6 piece.

  • The other thing to consider is if the sheet has all-around elastic. Baby Bargains made a big deal out of this and I wasn't sold until I put our sheets on the crib mattress. I can imagine not having full elastic would make it very easy for baby to grab and pull up the sheets.

    (you can also just buy sheets elsewhere like PBK or wherever to match this set, which is super cute!)
