For various reasons we're thinking about getting a different crib for #2 in September. I know about the ubiquitous DaVinci Jenny Lind (LO is actually using the Jenny Lind that was mine as a baby).
Criteria:
Full-sized
Less than $300
Sturdy
Doesn't have to be convertible. We don't care about that.

We have the Babyletto Hudson (we got it on sale from Amazon for $299). Love it so much! Our second choice was the Baby Mod Modena (I think that was in under $300 even at full price).

We have the Ikea Sniglair. Can't beat the $69 price tag, and it's pretty sturdy and takes a standard mattress.

We have and love the Graco Sarah crib. It's between $160-$190, depending on the color. It's a little bit more traditional looking than I had wanted (I wanted the Ikea Gulliver but D nixed it), but I ended up loving it.

@Zbug: That's good to know! My parents just gifted us the Gulliver crib and I love the way it looks.

We bought the Stork Craft Portofino in Espresso for $306. It's convertible to toddler bed, day bed and full size and also comes with detachable changing table as seen in the pic. Available at Amazon and Target and Walmart for the same price, I believe.

We have the Graco Lauren. It came as a bundle with the mattress and matching changing table from Walmart. I want to say it all came to around $200 total.
