Getting a 3 in 1 crib can be a very good decision for a parent or future parent. Whether you are expecting or not, it can be good to start considering your choice now. Plainly speaking, the 3-in-1 convertible crib is just that: convertible. This means you can change the function of the crib quite easily (actually, it’s a bit difficult sometimes; read the reviews before buying!) and you can expect the three in one to sport these possible baby crib configurations: the actual crib (standard stuff, obviously), toddler bed (good after about 18-22 months), and full-size bed (well, full-size meaning a regular kid’s bed, probably good for up to 6-7 years).
Some of the things to look out for when looking to purchase a 3 in 1 convertible crib for your newborn or nursery station are: a quality manufacturer, great reviews, and easy changing and re-configuring. So let’s look at a few of these.
The manufacturer needs to be well-known and should be respected and available and oft-seen in nursery department stores and places like Toys’R'Us and so on. For instance, Da Vinci, Baby Bjorn, Graco and Simmons are all great manufacturers that you can be sure have tested their own cribs to be as safe to babies as possible (with such processes as chemical interference detection so your baby is not breathing in harmful toxins and so on), and a lower recall rate. See, if you do decide to get a cheaper no-brand 3 in 1 convertible crib, you will probably be left a bit worried as many of these makers do not have a streamlined notification plan in case of necessary and important crib recalls. So if you do decide to get a 3-in-1 crib that is convertible, get one you know you can trust and have that peace of mind for you and baby.
