Safety is among the most important aspects of a quality crib. When you are buying your first crib or replacing one that is old, make sure the mattress and bedding items meet the standards set by the government.

These seals signify that the crib has been inspected by a third-party and is in compliance with the highest safety requirements. Additionally, the mattress should be firm, as mattresses with soft surfaces increase the risk of SIDS. The crib slats need to be at least two and three-quarter inches apart to avoid the baby's head getting caught between them. Also, ensure that the corner posts are no higher than 1/16 inch to stop a baby's clothing from getting caught on them.

If you are contemplating buying a used crib make sure it hasn't been involved in any recalls or accidents. It is also crucial to buy a new crib that uses lead-free paint. This is because infants who are teething can chew on the rails, causing lead poisoning.
