Crib NOT made in china?
For some reason, I have decided that it is important that our crib is NOT made in china.n I can not completely explain why I feel this way. Can any of you recommend a crib brand made in the US or Canada (or some other decently reputable country that is not China) I do have Baby Bargains, and have investigated some of the suggestions given in this book, but they aren't always 100% accurate. Thanks!
Baby Boy Born 3.15.11. 8lb 9oz, 21.75in.
6 month stats: 20lb 11oz (92%tile), 30.12in.(100%tile - who knew it went over 99th? Which means 100% of other 6 month olds are shorter than mine!)

Thank you for all of the suggestions! I sent some emails to various companies that you've suggested.
Here's what I've found out:
Newport Cottage cribs are gorgeous, but out of our price range.
Munire cribs are made in Indonesia (specifically asked about Safeside Urban)
Land of Nod cribs are made in the US by El Greco (asked about the White Straight Up)
Young America states obviously on the website that they are Made in America. They also mention the location of their facilities (VA and NC).
I am still waiting for an email from Ikea re: Gulliver.
I purchased the same brand.
Our Ikea Gulliver (white) is made in Ukraine, which is decent enough.
At our store, the Gulliver is on Last Chance and on sale for $79 instead of $99 (we paid the $99 when we bought it last year).
A little late I know, but this is the crib I want.
