PSA: Wayfair for crib/furniture

I complained a few weeks ago about having to wait 8-12 weeks for a crib to be delivered from a furniture store.  In the long run, it's not a big deal.  But, DH is a teacher and goes back to school soon.  I won't have him home to do projects, build stuff, etc.  I wanted the furniture in before that, so that I would have time to decorate as I wish.  Yes, yes, I'm insane. It's really the only room I'm "allowed" to buy new stuff for, since we're planning on moving in the next 1-2 years.  So, I'm going crazy!

Anyway, I couldn't be bothered to wait that long, so I did my window shopping at the best furniture stores - really everything from BRU, BBB, Crib & Teen City, private small shops and PBK.  I decided I loved the PBK line, but wasn't going to spend the money for something a child will chew on.  I settled on Munire brand in a convertible crib.  I went home and did my online research and found out that Wayfair sells one of the Munire designs that I loved.  I ordered a crib and dresser on 7/14.  I got a shipping notification on 7/22, an and a call from the delivery guy on 7/25.  Friday night, we put everything together, and it was wonderful!  I paid a great deal less than I would have at a furniture store, and shipping was free.

Cons:  They deliver to the first private area of the house - in my case, in front of the garage.  They do not put it together for you.  The boxes were heavy (or so I was told).  The dresser was fully assembled - so it couldn't be taken up in pieces.  The crib was in several pieces in one box.

All in all, if you are looking for a less expensive version of the brands/designs you love, I think Wayfair is worth a try.  I had never ordered from them before, but I'd certainly consider them for additional purchases.   Especially since I'm too impatient to wait months.

    My friend who just had a baby this past July got her crib from there. She raves about the site so I'm going to check it out.

    @NikkiMN143 - I think the chairs have to be assembled.  That's my only hesitency with that.  If you get one, let me know!
