Now to convince FI!</p> <p>@LazyLightning: I was thinking about the height of the actual crib mattress, but I guess they're all pretty low these days aren't they? We had a small nursery so I think something lower profile will be a better choice. I really like your crib, but you're right, it is tall! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-528833 Sat, 26 Jan 2013 09:18:51 +0000 LazyLightning 528833@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you talking about the height of it? It's about 1.5 inches lower than the Modena... I wouldn't think that's a big deal. ;) </p> <p>We bought the storkcraft libby and it is OVERLY tall - 43.5" - it looks massive! (Alas, the cat can still jump into it... haha) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-528621 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 23:44:20 +0000 runsyellowlites 528621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Revel: I so covet the grey! I went with the safe dark wood since P is still in our room. lol</p> <p>I believe the dresser in the room picture on the website is white so I would say yep! =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-527806 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:30:26 +0000 Revel 527806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: It sounds like a great crib! I like the grey one - do you think that and a white dresser would work together?</p> <p>I really like the Parklane and also the Olivia from Baby Mod, but I'm trying to stay closer to $200. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-527704 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 13:45:29 +0000 runsyellowlites 527704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Revel: I forgot to add that it was really easy to put together and feels really sturdy too! They have a grey option too (the one Mrs. Pen got &amp; I so wanted) and then a similar model Parklane that has white/brown combo AND a drawer like that first link you posted. Don't know if you had seen it.<br /> <a href="http://www.walmart.com/ip/Baby-Mod-ParkLane-3-in-1-Baby-Convertible-Crib-Amber-and-White/5983290?findingMethod=rr" rel="nofollow">http://www.walmart.com/ip/Baby-Mod-ParkLane-3-in-1-Baby-Convertible-Crib-Amber-and-White/5983290?findingMethod=rr</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-527664 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 13:29:31 +0000 Revel 527664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: @runsyellowlites: Thanks for inquiring! I didn't yet decide.</p> <p>I do still really like the Modena - I'm mulling over going with white furniture instead of the darker finish. I usually dislike white furniture but I think it might look nice with the yellow walls we are planning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-527328 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 11:16:21 +0000 runsyellowlites 527328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Idk if you've made a decision yet but @Mrs.Pen has the modena and so do we. I REALLY love it! I love that it's low &amp; I love that all the sides are equal in height. It seems that the mattress will easily go down far enough to continue to be safe as P grows and starts standing more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-527310 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 11:12:46 +0000 Bao 527310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Revel: Did you figure anything more out about this crib? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-anyone-have-any-experience-with-this-crib#post-517959 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 15:14:20 +0000 Revel 517959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm looking for a modern crib in a dark finish - black or something darker than espresso.</p> <p>Does anyone have any experience with this crib:</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Oggi-Kosa-Convertible-Crib/dp/B005H3I83G/?qid=1358652329&#038;s=baby-products&#038;sr=1-14&#038;keywords=crib&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;ref=sr_1_14" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Oggi-Kosa-Convertible-Crib/dp/B005H3I83G/?qid=1358652329&#038;s=baby-products&#038;sr=1-14&#038;keywords=crib&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;ref=sr_1_14</a></p> <p>The few reviews I've found seem decent.
