Baby isn’t here yet, but I think this crib will get the job done. While my partner was building it, he used wood glue and a drill to attempt to make stronger connections between the pieces. He expressed that the drawer on the bottom felt pretty cheap, but I think it will store light weight items just fine. One thing that surprised me was how short it was. I guess I was expecting it to be taller, but I didn’t measure height I was more concerned with depth and length so that’s on me I guess. All in all I think it will work for us. It meets safety standards and was affordable- that was most important for me. I splurged on the newton mattress, so this crib fit into the budget nicely.
