This is a great looking crib. Sturdy and easy to assemble. I read some complaints about a smell of fumes from this crib. I have not noticed anything of the kind and I have a very sensitive nose. Baby will be here shortly so have not used yet. Cannot comment on durability. Looks great, good price (since comparable styles are twice to 3x as much) and easy to assemble, as mentioned earlier. And shipping was extremely fast!!
