Type

Classic. The simplest and most familiar design of a crib with high walls and a small functional set. Such cribs are simple and, as a result, inexpensive but reliable.

Cradle. This category includes cribs intended exclusively for newborn children. One of their key features is the small size of the mattress and the presence of a rocking mechanism.

Bedside. Cribs for babies with the constructive possibility of removing the sidewall, which are installed close to the parental bed and are usually attached to it with special holders. The baby in such a crib sleeps separately from the parents and at the same time is at arm's length from the mother, which solves the problem of co-sleeping and night feedings. For placement at the same level with the parental bed in the models of bedside type usually provides the possibility of adjusting the mattress height. The bedside cribs accustom the baby to a separate place to sleep, while parents can keep the baby close to them and not worry about the baby during the night sleep.

Round convertible crib. Cribs that can be of 2 types due to their construction: round cradle and oval classic cradle. The convenient design makes the models very attractive in appearance and usable for a long time.

Convertible. The main feature of mo...st convertible cribs is the ability to expand the sleeping space, so they can be used much longer than regular cribs (in some models up to middle school years). There is also usually an opening sidewall (see below). In addition, such cribs are often equipped with chests of drawers and changing tables.

Loft bed. Single beds for teenagers, in which the sleeping area is raised above the floor to a fairly large height. Some of these models look like a bunk bed with the bottom bed removed, others — as a low cabinet with a sleeping place on the "roof". Note that loft beds are often combined pieces of furniture, supplemented with cabinets, drawers, desk, etc.

Teen themed. Beds for older children (usually of primary and secondary school age) with original design in a particular theme. One of the most popular options is a bed in the form of a racing car, with wheel-like legs. In addition, there are other design options such as an airplane, a fairy tale castle, etc. In any case, such a bed looks unusual and is often more interesting for the child than furniture in a standard neutral design.

— Bunk bed. Beds with two sleeping places located one above the other. Such a bed can be very useful if the family has two children of approximately the same age (twins, yearlings), and there is not enough space for two separate beds.

Rocking mechanism

The type of mechanism that provides rocking of the crib (if any — many models do not provide rocking).

Skids. Such cribs are equipped with curved skids, similar to those used in rocking chairs. Standing on such skids, the crib is capable of rocking. If such a crib is equipped with wheels, they are made removable — usually the crib stands on the skids, and the wheels are installed when it needs to be moved or fixed to prevent it from rocking. Skids are the simplest and most reliable, but they also have their disadvantages: the baby turning in his sleep, will rock the crib, which can wake up himself; to fix the crib in a stable position, it is necessary to install wheels, which is very laborious and inconvenient. In addition, the skids are poorly combined with the floor, especially parquet and laminate, because they can damage it, and therefore put such cribs is best on carpeting.

Pendulum. In such models, the base is fixed on the floor, and the rest of the crib, thanks to special hinges, can rock. For a longitudinal pendulum, the rocking goes along the crib, and for a transverse pendulum — across. There are also universal pendulums, the location of which is formed during assembly. Anyway, the pendulum mechanism has a lower risk of tipping if the baby...starts to rock the bed, in addition, the pendulum, unlike the skids, does not affect the floor covering. On the other hand, the pendulum mechanism is more complicated and somewhat less reliable.

End walls

The design of the end walls of the crib.

Slatted. As the name implies, they consist of vertical slats. The advantage of such a design is that you and your baby can see each other, hang various toys; in addition, the slats can be used as supports for the baby to sit down or stand up. On the other hand, in such cribs the baby is exposed to draft, so for slatted end walls special fabric walls are produced, which can be installed as protection.

Solid. Such walls do not have openings, slats, etc., and therefore do not allow you to see the baby — on the other hand, they provide the best protection against draft.

Slatted/solid. This may refer to two options. The first is when one wall is solid and the second is slatted or with large openings. In this way, the design combines the graceful appearance of a slatted wall with additional protection against draft. The second option — when part of the wall is made solid, and part is made in the form of slats. This design is used for aesthetic reasons, but in practical terms it does not differ from a conventional slatted wall.

Mesh. End walls in the form of frames covered with a fine mesh. Compared to slatted walls, such walls provide somewhat better protection against draft and at the same time allow the parent and baby to see each other. On the other h...and, such a wall is not suitable as an additional support for a baby.

Sidewalls

The type of sidewalls of the crib.

Slatted. They consist of vertical slats, for more details on the advantages and disadvantages of this design, refer to "Endwalls".

Solid. A solid surface with no recesses or holes. For more information on the advantages and disadvantages of this design, refer to "Endwalls".

Mesh. This wall is a frame with a mesh installed in it. It provides slightly better protection against drafts than a slatted wall; on the other hand, it is poorly suited as a support for the baby. It is used rather rarely, usually when it is difficult to install slats.

— Slatted/solid. This means that one sidewall is solid and the other is slatted. Such a crib is usually placed with a solid sidewall against the wall. Thus, parents can see the baby through the front wall, the baby can use the slats as a support for standing up, and the solid back wall protects it from drafts and contact with the wall.

— Solid/mesh. Solid walls, usually made of dense fabric, supplemented with mesh inserts. These inserts are designed to improve ventilation and to allow parents to see the baby better.

Sidewall height adjustment

The ability to change the height of the side wall within certain limits. Sidewall adjustment will be useful, first of all, when the baby grows up, and it becomes inconvenient to get him/her through a high wall (see "Number of base levels"). Adjusting the height will make it easier for you to access the baby: if necessary, the wall can be lowered in a few seconds, and putting the baby back in place again. The locks of such sidewalls are made to prevent the baby from opening them on his/her own. Also, the variable sidewall height can partially replace the adjustable matress height.

Teething rail

Special rails, usually made of silicone, installed on the top of the side of the crib. During teething, the baby constantly reaches for something to gnaw, and while in bed, the upper part of the walls is often the most convenient object for this. Teething rails protect the baby's teeth and gums from damage, and the crib from sloppy marks.

Changing table

The presence in the design of the crib of a special changing table for small children, which eliminates the need to purchase a separate changing board.

Lockable wheels

The latches are designed to block the rotation of the wheels of the bed and prevent it from moving — for example, if a nearby baby tries to climb onto the bed or grab to stand up, the bed without latches can move, which is fraught with unpleasant consequences.

Chest of drawers

The presence in the design of the bed of its own chest of drawers. A chest of drawers differs from a linen box (see below) in volume and number of compartments and allows you to store clothes, toys, etc. in addition to bed linen.
