Deciding on the right crib for your baby can be an overwhelming process. With so many choices available, how do you decide which one is right for your family? More and more people are turning to convertible cribs, as they are a cost effective choice that offers flexibility and adapts to your child as they grow.
DaVinci Kalani 4-in-1 Convertible Crib
So, if you are looking for a crib that your child won’t outgrow within a few months, the DaVinci Kalani offers one of the most versatile cribs on the market. Its tasteful, stylish design features gentle curves and solid wood. You’ll be spoilt for choice as the crib is available in 7 different colors, ranging from deep Cherry to warming Honey Oak.
The crib easily converts into a toddler bed, and the essential rail to stop your little one from rolling out of bed is also included (making it a money saving option, like most toddler rails for convertible cribs, are sold separately). It also converts to a daybed and full size bed with the additional purchase of full size bed rails.
Unlike most of its competitors, the DaVinci Kalani has 4 adjustable mattress levels instead of 3, which means you can sleep easy knowing your child is at a safe height (even if their new favorite pass time is using the crib as a climbing frame). The extra level also means your toddler will find it easy to climb in and out when using it as a daybed or toddler bed.
The mattress support is made out of metal and spring, which means extra support if your child is partial to bouncing up and down. It is designed to fit a regular crib mattress, which you will need to purchase separately, but will be able to use for several years as the crib is designed to fit babies and children of all ages.
The Kalani is the perfect portrayal of the DaVinci family values of environmental sustainability, safety, and reliability; it is made out of New Zealand pine wood obtained from sustainable forests. Every parent wants to make sure their child is sleeping safely, and the fact that the Kalani has been fitted with an extra strong slat means you won’t have to worry about durability issues, no matter how eager your child is to test his strength and athleticism on the crib.
As well as being safe and reliable, all finishes are non-toxic and exceed industry safety standards.
The crib is also “Greenguard Certified”, which means it has passed rigorous tests to ensure there is no risk of chemical exposure and helps provide a healthier indoor environment for your precious cargo. This is an important feature, as nowadays one of the main dangers babies face in cots is the possibility of toxins present in the paint or finish.
This is only one of the reasons the Kalani was a finalist in the “Best Cribs” category in the Baby Center Mom’s Picks 2014, and earned 1st place in the “She Knows Parenting Awards 2012”.
As is usually the case with convertible cribs, the Kalani is quite large once assembled (54.375 x 35 x 41.875”), and also has space underneath for a storage drawer if you need some extra space. Unless you feel like putting your building skills to the test, remember to assemble the crib in the room where you will be using it, as once assembled it won’t fit through a standard doorway. Some parents found this out the hard way!
If you have an eye for detail and are trying to find a versatile crib with choices to match your existing furniture, look no further. This stylish convertible crib will easily adapt to the needs of your growing child and will complement your nursery beautifully. You can also be safe in the knowledge your child is sleeping in an eco-friendly crib with safety as its number 1 priority.
