Tell me about your cribs

I posted about this on the nurseries board, too, but I figure you guys might have had a lot of my same requirements while shopping for cribs. What did you decide on? Do you love it?

Here's what I'm looking for:

* Small scale. I'll need to put both cribs and at least a dresser in a medium-sized room, so I can't do anything too grand.* Solid wood--all of it. (Not solid wood frame with some veneers.)* Convertible. Definitely to a toddler bed, and preferably also to a twin bed. I don't need them to also convert to bassinets, as I expect to use cosleepers.* Pretty simple. Think craftsman styling. I'm also interested in modern design, but I wouldn't go so far as to say I want mod cribs. I just need something that makes sense in my craftsman house--so nothing terribly ornate. Ornate isn't really my style anyway.

Ideas?

    You might want to look into the Graco cribs. I think they meet all your requirements and they're excellent value for the money. (We have a Storkcraft crib and a Graco Ashleigh crib.)

    we have the Gulliver cribs from IKEA - they are very streamlined. you might also like their levsik cribs.

    we have the leksivk cribs and love them. They convert to a toddler bed which is really nice- esp for the price.  They look great and are very sturdy.

    We got these cribs and just set one of them up.  I LOVE it!  I especially like the shelf on the bottom for storage. They do not convert to a twin bed, we plan to transition our boys to bunkbeds eventually.

    We got them at albee baby, but I believe amazon, target, and a bunch of other places sell them.

    We just purchased one crib (ILs will buy the 2nd). We got a Graco Ashleigh in Cherry. I believe it comes in a couple different colors but don't quote me on it. Very modern style and reasonably priced, IMO. Good luck with your search!
