I am leaning towards the Jenny Lind crib but i really want to see it in person. My husband wants to make sure its sturdy and i want to make sure i like the look of it. Ive found it online at a million places but i havent seen it is person yet. Do you know of any stores we can go to that has it?
Thanks!

    I could never find one in store either, so I just ordered online and I'm super happy with it.
    Sturdy & a bit of a vintage look to it! Maybe order from somewhere with free returns or a local store where you can return it if you end up not liking it!

    I had a jenny lind crib and changing table for my son.  I loved it.  I really like the spindles.  It was VERY sturdy.  I used it for my son and daughter and never had any issues.  We got ours AT babies r us.  I don't think it's a popular style for them to keep in the stores.  All the ones I see at the stores have the thick slats.  Do you have any friends that are pregnant or have kids that are a bit older?  Put it out there to friends and family and see if anyone has one...someone might have it sitting in an attic for you to see it.  As far as it being sturdy, if I still had it, I'd use it for this pregnancy.  I son was 'rough' on it and it made it through two kiddos.


    Good luck.

    I bought a black one from Amazon for under $200. Extremely sturdy and very happy with it. I vote go for it! You won't be disappointed. Worst case you send it back. Just be sure to be careful when you unpackage it.

    If you are close to a Nebraska Furniture Mart, they keep them in the stores. I really liked that particular crib but my husband wasn't crazy about it so we went with a different style. They sell them online too at nfm.com

    I believe that some Targets have them in store. I didn't get a Jenny Lind but I got a similar crib from Franklin & Ben. It's a little more expensive but it's a great crib.

    I have heard great things about the Jenny Lind and I believe the wheels are removable. Order it and check the online ordering policy to make sure you can return if you don't like it!

    My DD1 has been sleeping in her Jenny lind since she was 10 weeks old. It is sturdy and very cute.  We moved and it is still as sturdy as ever! I actually just ordered a second one for DD2!! origonially I was hesitant to buy it without seeing it first but was pleasantly surprised!
