thanks for the suggestions! but young america is a little pricey, i found bonavita to be more economical, do you know how they compare in quality? i'm not trying to be cheap. i want a good quality crib but at the same time the most for my buck .
Both my sister and my brother had Young America cribs purchased for them as a gift by my grandparents. They love them, but it seems like when they got them a few years back it was well under $500 (mattress and delivery included). I called the same store they got it from and Young America cribs now start at $650 for the crib alone. I love their stuff, especially some of the collection pieces, but not at that price.
Keep in mind that if you have preferences as to style and wood stain/color, it might narrow your options. Also, the range on price for cribs is pretty wide. You can get something that people will swear is fantastic for $100, or something more substantial and with a more permanent furniture feel, maybe with a fancy designer name for $1000, and everything in between. Start with the features most important to you and let that narrow your focus.
