My husband and I wanted a modern crib with clean lines and this one fit the bill perfectly.  We really love the look of the white/espresso.  We saw many cribs like this priced much higher and were happy to find this one.  Albeit, it is made from pine and is a softer wood than the more expensive crib options - so we do expect it to dent easier.  Overall we love it and can't wait till our baby is born and can use it!
