It's a decent crib. It came with a little knick on one side, and is constructed of MDF. The bolts are visible on the sides once assembled, and it comes in many parts and takes a little while to assemble. The mechanism holding the mattress tray to the crib bolts on in such a position that the mattress cannot lay completely flat onto the surface. Additionally, it is difficult for one person to move the mattress tray from one position to another on their own. We have a Pottery Barn crib for our oldest daughter and the quality is so much better; it came with four total pieces (four sides) plus the mattress tray and the mattress sits flush on the tray and the tray is easy for one person to move up and down when necessary. Of course, it was much more expensive than this crib. For the price, this is what I would expect. It looks nice and is sturdy and will certainly do the job. And it did not come with any off-odors, it smells completely neutral .
