This crib is great if you want a simple look. The crib is JPMA approved which was a must on our list. My husband and I put it together quite easily, it probably took us just under an hour to assemble. The pieces felt light in weight and we were worried it might feel flimsy once put together but it does actually feel sturdy. The only thing I might change is the protruding edge along the top of the crib. It makes it difficult to attach some mobiles...so that's just something to look out for if you are using a mobile. Overall, highly recommended.
