Cribs- Not made in China?

We are trying really hard to find a crib that was not made in China.  So far the only brands that we have come across are Mother Hubbard (sold at Buy Buy Baby) and Pottery Barn.  Does anyone have experience with cribs from either of these two companies?

    Why, if I may ask?

  • I'm just really concerned about safety.  I don't trust Chinese manufacturers to actually follow the guidelines that were set for them.  Also, I'd rather support companies who don't outsource their products to China.

    Hmm Just China specifically, or all outsourcing?

  • If you pick up the book Baby Bargains it has all the brands for cribs (and everything else baby) listed and tells you where most are made.  This may help.  There are a lot of Canadian companies in the book.

    No, but we got our crib & matching furniture through USA baby and it is not made in China. The product line is Baby's Dream. https://www.babysdream.com/ProductBrochures/Legendary%20Brochure%20final.pdf

  • I thought Pottery Barn was made in China. 

    The only American-made cribs I've found are made by El Greco.  These cribs are sold at Land of Nod and Room and Board and get top ratings from Baby Bargains.

     

  • Thank you all for you suggestions.  I will definitely look into them.
