How to choose a crib for a newborn?
The size:
The sizes of beds are most often found standard 120 × 60 or 140 × 70, mattresses and bedding are easily selected for them. A sign of quality are strong connections of elements.
Bed material:
The best and safest baby cots are made exclusively from natural materials: most often from solid beech, since it is very strong and durable, or from pine - the environmental friendliness of coatings and materials are ensured in these cases. Also, there are metal and plastic products and particle board, however such non-natural materials should be avoided. Carefully check the surface of the product, it should be smooth.
Design:
Regardless of the chosen design of the children's bed, whether it is a pendulum, a transformer, an ordinary one, with a drawer, a chest of drawers, a changing chest of drawers, etc., it is necessary to pay attention to the quality of the rods and the distance between the slats (usually from 6-8 cm, no more). Also note the presence of wheels, as mobile beds are more practical. In case the selected bed is equipped with a pendulum mechanism, then check its noiselessness and smoothness. The bottom should not be monolithic, but slatted, since the monolithic bottom impedes air circulation, and can cause fungi to appear in the mattress.
We present the top ten beds for newborns, their detailed description, as well as advantages and disadvantages.

We were very lucky with the cot, and a beautiful and high-quality VERES crib was advised in the store.
Loved the comfortbaby and sleep and smile beds
It is unfortunate that among the very important characteristics of any model of the crib is not indicated its weight. I believe that for the most ordinary young families, of whom there are millions in our country, and therefore they live in small apartments, either in rented apartments or in the parents ’territory, the mobility of the crib and its ease of movement are very important! Forgive the Lord and the daughter-in-law, forgive me, “a bed with all the amenities” for many years to come, weighing almost a centner (((But the voice of reason prevailed. In order to appreciate all the advantages and disadvantages - and a lot of weight is definitely a disadvantage! - the weight of the structure should be indicated directly in the article, among other important characteristics laid out for all to see.
