Ikea Somnat Crib

Does anyone have this crib? I love the idea of a colored crib, especially pink for a girl, with other white furniture or something. For $99 I worry about quality though, but I obviously wouldn't be worried if it got chewed up/messed up over the course of the 1st year or so, I'd just want it to last until it was time for a toddler bed.

Thoughts?

All Ikea cribs are very highly rated.

I have a Gulliver from Ikea and I love it! It is perfect for my height (I'm 5'3"). However, I am not sure about that line. It was mentioned in Consumer Reports.

I also have the Gulliver and in white, it, too was only $99. It is very highly rated for safety. I'm not sure how the Somnat compares, but in general, I feel the Ikea cribs are fine for what I want - safe and reliable for use until I want a real toddler bed.

I had not heard of the Somnat crib before so I pulled it up on the Ikea website.  As far as I can tell, it looks identical to the Gulliver.  I have the Gulliver in the solid wood color and I like it a lot (not that I've used it yet, though!).  It was super easy to assemble and feels very sturdy, and has good reviews from Baby Bargains and Consumer Reports.  I think the Somnat should be fine, too.
