What Is The Best Convertible Crib?
Like most other manufacturers Bassett now makes convertible cribs. The company’s latest collection owes much of its design inspiration from older American country styles. For, those who love simple, Cottage, New England or Shaker styles, Bassett Convertible cribs will pull at the heart strings.
If you want real quality and something that will stand the test of time then you should seriously consider Sorelle. There are very few other manufacturers who can match its cribs in terms of build quality and elegant design; Pali, Munire and Basset cribs being just a handful that can offer cribs that are as good.
This company has a fine pedigree in the manufacture of nursery furniture. Pali is an Italian company with a wide distribution network in the US. It was the first company to produce the “one-hand” drop side feature with no exposed hardware. Pali calls its collections of convertible cribs, ‘Forever cribs’.
The Rosalia Forever collection is a particularly beautiful crib. It has very traditional curvy legs and a straight-backed headboard with an elegant curve along the top. The side rails curve slightly outwards. There are plain slats on all four sides, with the side slats also curving outwards. What is very appealing about its overall design is the rounded rails found on all four sides; the rounded rails on the curvaceous side panels are extremely elegant. It comes in a variety of finishes including antique walnut, cherry, cinnamon, distressed white, matte white and natural.
The Hamptons is another restrained and elegant convertible crib by Sorelle. It is reminiscent of American colonial styling - straight, simple spindles, with straight foot and head rails. Although available in Autumn and Candle Light finishes, to my mind, this crib looks its best in a Cherry finish. The Mara 3-in-1 is a very beautiful sleigh crib and it comes with an underneath storage drawer though perhaps its most distinct feature is that it is on castors, which makes moving it about easy - I often wonder why most convertible cribs don’t come with castors; these are heavy pieces of furniture and moving them about isn’t always easy.
