Thread: "Nontoxic Crib? Babyletto?"
I would worry less about the crib and more about the mattress, sheets, sleepwear but that's just me. I have 2 babylettos for my 2 kids (mini crib and regular crib) and they both are in great shape. Edit: removed negative comment about chewing on the crib
Thread: "Babyletto Cribs"
We got a convertible crib for our first and regretted it. Babies chew the rungs like a beaver, so the finish was really janky. By the time she was old enough for a "big girl bed", all I wanted was to get a nice, fresh bed that didn't have her chew marks and random bolt holes from the different configurations. We do love Babyletto! We got the mini crib for our second and loved it. We aren't fans of basinettes (they can really only be used for a couple of months) and it wasn't something we prioritized. The mini crib helped us keep baby in our room like a basinette, but lasted until she was ready to transition to a regular bed. We skipped toddler bed stages. Grandma had a toddler bed for sleepovers, but we never got one.
Thread: "Crib vs mini crib"
Yes, we have the Babyletto mini crib and really love it.
Thread: "Deinfluence me: pottery barn nursing chair, babyletto crib, and UppaBaby vista "
Ok, the point about the nursing chair is very helpful. i was beginning to feel like I \*\*must\*\* get it one in order to breastfeed comfortably. The babyletto has a larger bassinet (the mini crib...it's the size between the bassinet and the full size crib), which the Nestig doesn't offer. With that in mind, would it be worth getting in your opinion?
