FTM here. Torn between the munire urban and the bonavita metro crib. They look fairly similar but I want to know if anyone has any experience with either crib. Any likes or dislikes with either brand? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I have the bonavita metro crib. I absolutely love it. The color is gorgeous licorice and it is a very solid piece of furniture.

    Just a FYI I was able to buy the furniture from buy buy baby using 20 off coupons. Saved me a bundle!

    All the furniture in my son's nursery is Bonavita. I have the Peyton crib and it's great except the drawer underneath is constantly coming off the track. At the store the display one was broken and the salesguy said it was that way because you have to pull it open just from the middle and if you do it from the side it will break. Well I only did it from the middle and it still came off the track and keeps coming off. I'm not sure if the metro has that drawer underneath but in case it does it is something to keep in mind. Also the Bonavita dresser and changing table both had problems when they delivered them. Luckily someone gave me the advice to make the delivery guys open the boxes and for me to inspect the furniture in their presence so they couldn't say it happened afterwards. One thing had a noticeable scratch and the other the the drawer wasn't opening and closing easily. The delivery guys fixed the scratch with some kind of crayon type thing. I called BBB and they offered me a $100 gift card to keep it that way instead of sending it back (that was after I already got 20% off the purchase price). Since I couldn't see the scratch after the crayon thingy I kept it. However I refused the changing table since the drawer was messed up and they sent me a new one. So I'm not sure if I just was really unlucky or if Bonavita isn't the best brand. Whichever you go with, make sure you inspect the wood in front of the delivery guys for scratches!

    For these particular cribs head to head I would go with the metro.
