Advantages: Bigger than a moses basket, good quality wood.

Disadvantages: Squeeky screws for swinging motion.

Having decided quite early on that we wanted our baby in our room for as long as possible but not having enough room for a full cot we dcided a crib was the best compromise.

It is larger than a Moses Basket, after speaking to other Mum's I found that they had outgrown a Moses Basket by about 8 weeks. The current governement guidlines are to keep your baby in your room until 6 months.

Although I doubt my daughter will still fit in her crib at 6 months she still has plenty of room now she is 11 weeks old.

We decided on this crib as it was cheap from Kiddicare - I think it was about £50, we then had to buy the mattress seperately.

When we recieved it I was very impressed, the wood and finish is of good quality with no risks of anything splintering.

Putting it together was relatively easy, although sliding the base into the frame was a 2 person job. It comes with a little spanner to put it together as well so there is no hunting around for tools.

Using the swinging motion is a bit fussy as you have to unscrew to screws at either end and ours squeek so we haven't used it swinging - although that isn't a problem as you can't leave them to sleep with it in swinging motion and my daughter didn't like the swinging motion anyway.

This will certainly be going into our loft ready for baby number 2.

Summary: Will last longer than a Moses Basket for about the same price!

It's pretty surprising how long they will fit in a crib. My own two chidren were in a hooded rocking cradle, and the dimensions are the same, taking the same size mattress as a crib. They fit comfortably until about 9 months old! I had tot ake them out only because they learned to pull themselves up.
