by Denise and Alan Fields
The excellent baby-gear book "Baby Bargains" includes a detailed section on cribs, including comparative reviews and ratings of most popular brands. The authors don't conduct independent testing, but they… do give their top brand recommendations based on product evaluation, user feedback and manufacturer history. The authors do offer specific model recommendations, although they seem to be an afterthought after the detailed brand discussions. In-depth analysis of each model isn't offered, only a brief listing of a few recommendations in three price categories. In the highest price category, only brands are listed, not specific models.

Heather Corley, About.com's guide to baby products, lists her top 10 choices for cribs under $250. Although the ranking format is useful, cribs aren't really compared to each other and there's not much… justification given for the choices. Ultimately we can't tell if these cribs were tested or even examined in person. (Note: ConsumerSearch is owned by About.com, but the two don't share an editorial affiliation.)

Similar to the report on cribs under $250, this report lists baby-products guide Heather Corley's top 10 round crib choices. The ordered ratings are a useful starting point for parents considering a round… crib, but models aren't compared to each other and there's no discussion of models that don't perform well. We can't tell whether or not Corley tested these cribs. (Note: ConsumerSearch is owned by About.com, but the two don't share an editorial affiliation.)

This informal review identifies important features to look for when selecting a baby crib, and offers shopping suggestions for finding the best deals. The DaVinci Emily Convertible Crib is named the… best-selling convertible crib, and the Delta Children's Products Hampton 3-in-1 Convertible Crib is named a great value in convertible cribs. Other types of cribs are discussed, but no recommendations are made. It's unclear on what methodology the recommendations are based or how many other cribs they are compared against.

Target sells a large selection of cribs, and the most popular models have dozens of owner reviews. While user reviews don't involve formal testing or detailed comparison between cribs, they do allow… consumers to gain an overall idea of the strengths and weaknesses of individual models.

RateItAll.com is a site that allows users to list a product and provide a rating. Although not an online retailer, the site does provide a link for users wishing to purchase each model through Amazon.com.… Only 13 cribs are reviewed here currently, and only a few reviews are available for each. The review information provided is very general in nature, and most reviewers don't provide a lot of detail about specific likes and dislikes.
