Have one granddaughter, another one coming soon and wanted to replace my pack n play with a crib.  Chose this based on others reviews. Put it together with just a little help from daughter (to stabilize while screwing pieces together). Very sturdy, pretty lines. I chose black because it matches other furniture I already have. Though it is more of a glossy black. There was one gouge in the top back rail (covered with the finish paint though, so not too noticeable). And as mentioned in other reviews, very large safety stickers in unhidden places (you can see one on the photo) which is still on there, because did not come off easily. I'm assuming some furniture oil will loosen it up - but haven't tried yet. Bought a mid-priced crib mattress and she slept - well, like a baby!

Pros: Great value! Looks very nice especially for the price
Cons: Safety Stickers could be made easier to remove (though that me be the point).
