How to Choose the best rated cribs Infant Cribs

The crib is an extremely important piece for the nursery of your baby. It isn't easy to pick the right crib, with so many styles and safety concerns.

Look for a crib that meets the highest safety standards and has no chewable or dangling components. We also recommend a crib that has a broad selection of mattress heights and a modern design that complements your style.

Safety

When assembling and arranging your baby's crib, be sure to follow safe sleep guidelines set by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Avoid placing any items that could cause injury or harm to the nursery of your baby. This includes blankets, pillows, and sheepskins. Also avoid bumper pads, stuffed toys and blankets. Your baby should not sleep with any teddy bears dolls or stuffed animals bigger than 15 inches. These items can easily slide between the crib bars or be trapped in them. They may also be taken up by the mattress.

The best cribs for infants are made of materials that are free of VOCs, toxic chemicals and other harmful substances. They also comply with strict federal laws, local and state requirements for structural safety. Furthermore, they're tested by a third-party for quality and safety (think GREENGAURD gold or ASTM, JMPA, or CPSIA certifications!). They're designed to last and are convertible so they can expand with your child.

It's important that you choose a crib that meets current safety standards, regardless of whether you're purchasing a brand-new or used crib. Used cribs may have their structural integrity weakened due to age, humidity and prolonged use, which can pose serious dangers to your baby.

The slats on your crib should be spaced no more than 2-3/8 inches (6 centimeters) apart to keep babies from getting trapped between them and the hardware on the crib should be secure. Examine the slats, mattress support rims, and hardware for any broken or loose components.

It's also wise to stay clear of cribs that were used by other children or pets, as their safety could be at risk. Don't buy or accept the crib that has drop-side rails. This feature was banned in 2012 by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission to protect the public.

Style

Although all cribs must comply with strict safety standards, there are a lot of design differences. Some are purely aesthetic, such as if the slats are the same length or placed closer apart and others have a real impact on how easy the crib is to maintain and use. Certain features, such as drop sides and finials, aren't safe and should not be used as well. Other features, such as adjustable mattress heights and wheels/casters are popular with parents.

A crib is not meant to be used as a place for toys or clothes. It's intended to be an area where babies can sleep. You can also include a crib in your registry to get assistance from family and friends in the event you need help.

Cribs are available in many different styles However, we prefer those that combine style with functionality. The Storkcraft Equinox is a minimalist crib that looks great. It's also GREENGUARD gold certified which we believe is essential for any toxic-free product. It can be converted into a toddler and daybed by converting it with a separate kit.

Other cribs have more traditional designs like the DaVinci Jayden 4-in-1. It's a stately choice that fits well into large nurseries, but it occupies more space than smaller minimalist options and has exposed hardware that some might find distracting. Additionally, it has only three mattress height levels which is less than half the alternatives and it's not as sturdy as our other options.

The Babyletto Hudson is another option with a modern design. The Babyletto Hudson's all-round mesh and hidden hardware enhance airflow and Dr. Casares believes that this is a feature that many new parents will find important. It can also be raised to a higher position to ease colic and reflux, making it suitable for babies aged from birth to 6 months. It's also GREENGUARD certified GOLD and comes with a complimentary mattress that is also a match. It's worth noting, though it's more costly than our other top selections and requires a toddler bed conversion kit.

Adjustable Mattress Height

It is important that the mattress on your baby's crib is of the correct height. This will stop your child from escaping the crib, which can be fatal or dangerous. A mattress that is higher can also help to keep your child safe from overheating or becoming suffocated.

A good crib should have adjustable rails or slats that allow you to raise the mattress or lower it as your baby grows. Most good cribs will also come with a conversion kit, so you can transform the crib into a toddler bed or daybed once your little one outgrows it. In the end, it's recommended to select a crib that has been tested and certified by a third party organisation for safety. This includes the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association (JPMA) seal and GREENGUARD Gold certification which means that it has been tested to ensure that there are minimal chemicals or finishes in the crib where your baby sleeps.

The Graco Sweet2Sleep Crib is one of the Best cot for newborn-rated cribs on the market, and it's simple to put together and features a simple layout that doesn't contain any jarring pieces or parts.

However, one tester said that her baby cots on sale slept well and that the crib was in good shape when she gave it to a relative for her second baby.

Another option that is worth considering is the Stokke Sleepi Crib, which features a unique oval shape that gives it a modern look.

The only drawback to this crib is it doesn't have mattress, which you'll need to purchase separately. It's a safe and comfortable crib that can grow with your child as they transition from infant to toddler.

No dangling or chewable components.

The most secure cribs are free of chewable or dangling components. If something is hung over or below the crib, this could cause the rails to be pulled or cause strangulation. Babies are very grabby. If a parent decides to decorate their crib with ornaments or toys, they need to be sure that the items are securely secured and are not within Baby's reach.
