Cheap Baby Cribs
You don't have to scour the classifieds looking for used cheap baby cribs. Instead, you can buy a brand new cheap one from manufacturers like Angel Line, Storkcraft and DaVinci baby cribs furniture. Both these brands, as well as other cribs for baby, come in many beautiful styles with many safety features as standard.
Buying a used baby crib for your baby can be risky, especially when buying from someone you don't know. You won't know the history of the baby crib, whether it was damaged or even if it was a model that was recalled sometime in the past - there have been many recalls; Simplicity, Graco and Basset to name just three. All of those baby cribs suffered serious design flaws that resulted in the injury and sometimes the death of a child. Thankfully, these companies all acted swiftly and mounted large publicity campaigns to inform anyone who had bought their products about the recall of their baby cribs.
You are definitely better off buying new cheap baby cribs rather than second hand ones. All baby cribs sold in the US have to meet certain safety requirements, such as lead free, non-toxic paint; spacing regulations between slats and spindles; and solid end panels without cutouts.
If you do buy cheap baby cribs, make sure it has a Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association (JPMA) certification. Both Storkcraft and Davinci baby cribs have JPMA certification so you can rest assured that their cheap baby cribs are as safe as the most expensive on the market.
And you don't have to sacrifice style either when you buy cheap baby cribs. Take a look at the Jenny Lind crib from DaVinci - you can buy one for as little as $200. It's a timeless classic with a very simple design of turned, or 'knobbly', spindles. Many manufacturers make a Jenny Lind model but some will charge a premium for what is a baby crib of very simple design. Why pay the extra?
If the Jenny Lind is too expensive, take a look at the DaVinci Sytems Alpha crib. This is a simple but lovely cheap baby crib that has hand-and-knee release to lower the drop side, castor wheels and can be converted to a toddler bed so you'll get many years service out of it; all for around $160.
The Storkcraft Baby Rochester Crib is of very elegant design - something you would associate with a more expensive brand. And, your child can use it for many years as it can be converted into a day bed or a double bed. You also get a storage drawer underneath, castor wheels and there are three mattress positions. You can buy it for as little as $230.
The above is just a small sampling of the cheap baby cribs you can find online. Incidentally, many large retailers now sell discount baby cribs online so you should definitely get on the web and start searching for them.
There's no need to buy used baby cribs. There are so many baby crib retailers selling so many brands that there is a large choice of cheap baby cribs; just do a little research before you buy.
