Which one did you buy? Do you like it? Hate it?
DH and I are going to look at cribs tomorrow, as we are planning our nursery. I'd love to know what you guys have and like, or have and dislike. Bonus points if you have a picture or link

Here is our crib, we LOVE it. It is so incredibly sturdy, and the price is even better.

We heavily invested in our nursery furniture and have been really happy. We went with Romina's Karisma collection. http://www.rominafurniture.com/?g=collections-karisma-romina It is solid wood, coated with beeswax, and beautiful. It has a 60 year warranty.

We have the Babi Italia Pinehurst in Tea Stain. I really wanted a natural wood finish for the room, and I wanted solid wood. We got a wicked deal on kijiji and we snapped it up as soon as we saw it.

We got this crib. Not cheap but super sturdy and beautiful. It will stay with LO for years and years.

I have the kendall low from pottery barn kids. I loveeee it because it is simple design and I am only 5' 4". I can't imagine being the size I am and having a higher crib....I would have to stand on the tips of my toes to put lo in the crib when he is already asleep.

@hilsy85: We also have the Oeuf Sparrow. Love it too! It was an investment, but we figured that DD would probably eventually be chewing on the crib rails (which she is now), so we wanted something environmentally friendly and sturdy.

Our crib is Amish made. It's really nice, but I'm almost too short to lay DS down in it easily.

@matador84: we have the Kendall low rise crib as well and love it so far. Ok, so baby has not yet slept the night in it, but we think we love it

We have the mod modena in grey from walmart and LOVE it. It's very sleek and clean looking. I love that it comes in grey.

@Mrs. Pen: love your crib! The grey is awesome.

We have this Baby Cache crib from BRU.

I didn't really know what to look for in a crib, other than it being convertible. The only tiny complaint I have is that I can't fit a storage container under it. It's pretty, sturdy, and doesn't look cheap. We got the matching dresser too.

We got the Gulliver from ikea. Basic, classic, affordable and sturdy.

We have the Gulliver crib from IKEA and love it. It is super sturdy, has clean, modern lines, and the best part - it was super affordable. DD is now 23mo and uses it as a toddler bed. We could have bought teething rails but didn't, and turned out to be a non-issue.
We were intrigued by beds that turn into full-size beds, but realized that for the price of the bed rails to do that (they never seem to be included!) we could just buy the Gulliver.

We have the DaVinci Jenny Lind crib in white. I love it! It's inexpensive, as sturdy as pricey cribs, and a touch old fashioned while still being fun and charming.
No pics of our nursery yet, but you can check out a lot of great photos of the Jenny Lind style at Houzz!

We have the Graco lauren, I wasn't crazy about any crib and this one was cheap so we got it!

We have the same crib as @Minnie_Girl: The Jenny Lind DaVinci crib! It's a great looking crib at a fantastic price! Sturdy, well-made, and pretty too! Nursery isn't done yet, but here's right after we assembled it:

@shopaholic: I love that crib! I am going to buy my LO a Jenny Lind bed!
pomelo / 5321 posts
We have the same crib as @mrsaudi, except ours is finished with a Cherry oak stain. It's convertible and it was cheap. We got the crib, changing table, and mattress for $250. I really like the crib. It's nice and really easy to assemble.
ETA: I ordered from Walmart.com and used free site-to-store shipping.

@mrsmate: glad to hear you're still rocking the Gulliver at 23 months! And DH would be the Yankees fan (but I swear LO is NOT named after Jeter, we just really liked the name!)
pomegranate / 3895 posts
We have the Natart Belmont crib in white. I would have been content with something cheaper, but DH really wanted this one. It's solid wood, made in Canada and has some sort of green certification. Can't tell you how much I like it yet because we're just planning on assembling it today!

Thanks for sharing!! I love the crib pictures, you guys have some cute nurseries :). Good to hear that nobody (so far) has any major crib regret.
@Mrs. Pen: I'm glad you like this crib, I am very strongly considering it in navy blue!

We have a Jenny Lind, too. It was my dream crib, and I got it from my brother and SIL as a hand-me-down! I love it. It did have a drop-side, but we got a kit from the company (for free) to fix it.
We'll probably paint it for the next LO so it'll be different.

I think we decided on a crib! We went out to look and we both really like the Baby Cache Kensington. It seems very sturdy. I like the lighter wood because I think it'll hide scratches and wear pretty well.

Feel free to keep sharing your cribs!

@Pepper: This was the crib I was eyeing before we found the one we bought. I we hadn't gotten the awesome deal we got, that was what was going to come home with us

@Pepper: I like the crib you chose!
We chose the Pottery Barn Madison because we liked how sturdy it was, as well as the style.

We have the same crib as @Mrs. Pen: but in white. I really love it! It was gifted to us but the price was really reasonable. It converts to toddler and day bed too.

We have a DaVinci Anastasia 4-1 crib. I chose it because of the drawer underneath. I store extra crib sheets and changing pad sheets down there.

This is our crib: http://babygoroundinc.com/nursery-gliders-cribs/nursery-baby-furniture/cribs-baby-furniture/peyton-classic-crib-by-bonavita.html#
It's a beautiful crib in person and very solid. We ended up co-sleeping and now plan to do the Montessori floor bed so we have not used the crib. But, the front/back convert to head/foot board for a regular bed so we will get use out of it.
