Find cribs that comply with the safety standards and regulations set by the American Academy of Pediatrics and Consumer Product Safety Commission, which are focused on structural integrity.

Look for solid frames, and avoid slats that are too close together as they could pose a risk of suffocation. Also, search for a crib that does not include decorative cut-outs, or drop sides, as these features can be a hazard to your child.

Avoid finishes that contain volatile compounds (VOCs) because they may impact your Baby Crib's breathing and sleeping.

5. Safety First

Safety should be the primary priority when selecting the crib. Make sure the crib is strong and well-constructed, with firmly fitted and secure hardware. Also, make sure it is in line with the current CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) guidelines: Less than 2.375 inches of space between the slats (that's approximately the size of a soda bottle) and no cutouts with decorative designs in the footboard or headboard and corner posts that are flush with the end panels or extremely tall. Anything between can pose the risk of strangulation.

Additionally, keep all toys out of the crib because they can be choking or risk of suffocation. Choose a baby monitor with a clear line of sight so it does not interfere with your view. Also, ensure that all cords are not within reach of your child and securely anchored. Don't keep any pillows, blankets, or baby cribs with positioners. These can cause dangers of choking and suffocation, and can be kicked off by your infant or dragged down by older siblings.

Beware of cribs that are older as they could be equipped with outdated features that could cause injuries. Even if the crib is in good condition, the slats could be too wide or could be missing hardware. Additionally, old cribs may have paint that contains lead or have loose, dangerous screws or bolts.

The Stork Craft Evolur is an excellent value, however it could be too much for those who prefer a minimalist look. Other options like the Dream On Me Ashton 4 in 1 or the DaVinci Carter's 4-in 1 offer a similar design but without the bells and whistles.
