Dream On Me Ashton 4-in-1 Convertible Full-Size Baby Crib, White, GreenGuard Gold & JPMA, Sustainable Pinewood, 4 Mattress Heights, Converts to Toddler, Day & Full-Size Bed

First of all, I originally bought this off Amazon because it was cheap and it looked nice. It felt a little risky getting it, when all the other "quality" brands were at least twice the amount. But, I only got this because my middle child was still in his crib, and I was tired of putting my youngest into a pack n' play, just waiting for the middle child to be ready for a toddler bed. So, cheap was a priority. I ordered this with Prime, but even still, it arrived FAST! Only 1 day passed between purchase and delivery. That was impressive, although I understand this might just be a factor of how close I live to whatever hub it shipped from. Maybe a lucky coincidence, but it still made my day. As for setup, I just finished putting it together about 10 minutes ago, and it really wasn't too bad. I did it by myself in about 45 minutes, and if I had made my spouse help, it would have taken maybe half the time. Everything was nicely packed in the box and labeled with little stickies for easy of setup. I was a little confused at first trying to find the instructions, but they are actually in the envelop attached to the spring board. (Also, this envelop is apparently supposed to stay attached to the spring board as a safety warning, but I took mine off before I realized that.) The instructions were very easy to follow, and everything was labeled well, so it was easy to find everything and put it together. You don't need ANY tools of your own to put this together. As for parts included, this only comes with the crib and day bed configurations, but can be converted to toddler bed (half railing) and twin bed if you purchase the conversion kits separately. It also seems to have four positions for the height of the mattress, and the bolts are easy to put in and remove when you want to raise and lower the mattress. After everything was put together for the crib, I did have one board left, which I'll have to store until later when I turn this into a day bed (or buy the toddler conversion kit). Honestly, this was a great find, and I'm so happy that I no longer have to put my littlest in a pack n' play anymore (without breaking my wallet in the process). I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a simple, cheap (not cheap quality) crib. I almost wish I had found this for my other kids!

Easy to set up and shipping was super fast, came earlier than expected. Crib is nice and sturdy.

Great crib came pretty quick easy to put together very nicely looking and easy to use we overall love this budget friendly crib for our baby

When searching for a crib for our son, I wanted a crib that was good condition that would last through multiple children, nice looking, and affordable. I had never heard of this brand so I looked around for some reviews. It was hard finding many, but decided to purchase it anyways. I do not regret it at all. We've only had it for a short time so if anything bad happens after I write this review I will update it, but I was very pleased when I opened it up. It is a beautiful color, there were no scratches, all the pieces were there and it was fairly simple to put together. (About half way through I needed multiple hands). What I love most though is how sturdy it is. I thought maybe because it was on the cheaper end it would be pretty flimsy, but nope, it is rock solid. I love this crib and am excited to have it for our son. The only negative thing about this crib is that with the shape of the edges (the sides are wavy and the back is curved) it makes it hard to put a mobile up (at least the one that I have). But that isn't really a big deal. It has multiple levels which is nice because it is easier to lay our infant son down at the higher setting. Anyways, a good crib for a good price. I'd recommend it.

Update: I have converted the crib to a toddler bed and it was a fairly easy process. Make sure you hold on to the stabilizer bar when you first receive the crib because you will need that when you want to convert it later. The pieces you need to attach it are already being used to keep the side on - plus an allen wrench. I also added a Dream On Me Mesh Security Rail to keep my son from rolling out of bed at night because this crib did not come with a toddler rail. I like the fact that if I want to revert it to a crib I can throw the front back on in probably 20 minutes or less as long as I keep the parts. My only complaint is that I didn't realize how many exposed screw holes there would be on the newly bare inner sides. Not a safety issue but it is unsightly. Either way, the crib has held up to my rough toddler for over a year and is still in use so I'll stick to my 4 star review. Original Review: I purchased this crib for my 22 month old because I plan on converting it to a toddler daybed in the upcoming months, but for the time being I have it set up as a regular crib at the lowest mattress setting. I will update my review when I convert it to include my thoughts on using it as a toddler bed. Others have noted that the espresso color was not true espresso but in my opinion it is close enough. It looks like a rich dark brown and my particular crib has no hints of red in the coloring but it should be a tad darker. With low lamp lighting the crib looks darker than it looks in natural daylight. My crib also arrived with a deep scratch on one of the top rail parts, which is one reason I cannot give it 5 stars. Another reason I only give it 4 stars is because I actually purchased the Dream On Me 96 coil mattress to go along with this crib since they are the same brand and should be compatible, but the mattress is about an inch shorter in length than it should be to fit snugly. That spacing doesn't make much of a difference being that my baby is now a toddler, but if I had a newborn I might be concerned that the mattress is not snug enough in all directions. Otherwise, the crib is very nice to look at and appears to be very sturdy. It took an hour to put together and I would have been able to do it alone but for one part of the assembly I needed another person to come hold the parts up, so having somebody to help you may be necessary. Mine came with instructions but a few of the parts were missing labels and the instructions did not tell you where to put the included dowels. I ended up putting them in the inner holes that were only indented on one side of the wood, maybe this is common knowledge but it wasn't to me and I had to guess. The crib comes with an extra stabilizer bar to replace the front side at its lowest level for when you convert it to a toddler bed but does not come with a toddler bed rail. For the price (under $150) this was definitely a worthwhile purchase and works well for my needs at the moment. My son enjoys his new crib which is the most important feature for me.

Good quality and easy assembly. Love the light grey color!

Easy to assemble. Mattress can be at different levels for infants to older toddler.

One of the best features of this crib is its convertibility! It transitions from a crib to a toddler bed, daybed, and even a full-size bed, making it a long-term investment rather than just a short-term piece of furniture. Knowing that it will grow with my child makes this purchase even more worthwhile. Putting this crib together was straightforward, with clear instructions and well-labeled parts. Once assembled, it feels incredibly sturdy and secure, giving me complete peace of mind. The wood finish is smooth and high-quality, with no rough edges-perfect for a safe sleep environment.
