Other security features to look out for include an upholstered sheet that fits the mattress securely and a stable and sturdy construction. You should also select a crib that has fixed sides, rather than one with drop sides, which can be dangerous for your baby. It is also advisable to sleep in the same room as your baby for six months or so, and then move them to their own bedroom when they are old enough to be monitored when they sleep on their own.

In the end, you must make sure that the crib is positioned away from windows and radiators and that any hanging objects such as curtains or blind cords are kept out of reach. You should also remove items that could be danger to your child's health like pillows or blankets. You should also be wary of buying second-hand cribs, because they may not meet the current safety standards or been recalled due to other reasons.

Design

It is important to keep in mind that cribs may look identical, but they must comply with strict safety standards. The majority of cribs we examined are constructed in a similar fashion to ensure the structural stability. The majority of cribs have circular bars that do not have gaps or rough surfaces that could catch the baby or squeeze them. We also evaluated each crib and rated it for its ease of use and assembly.

Look over the label of the mattress to make sure it meets Consumer Product Safety Commission standards.

For example the Newton Wovenaire is incredibly light at just 8 pounds, while the Naturepedic Organic Breathable Crib Mattress - Dual Firmness is 20 pounds, making it the heaviest in this review. It is also constructed of foam instead of woven-core inners, which makes it much easier to move around when compared to a heavier traditional coil mattress.

Assembly

A crib that's easy to put together is ideal for parents with young children.
