I absolutely love this crib. The color is exactly what I was wanting. It's light yet sturdy. I cannot wait for my little munchkin to get here so it can be used! As far as putting it together goes, it could have been easier. My mom was helping me assemble it and was having a little bit of difficulty reading the instructions. After convincing her to also look at the diagrams it went much smoother. If I had done it myself or if my dad had helped it wouldn't have taken nearly as long.
