An Amazon's Choice, the Union 3-in-1 Convertible Crib is a favourite amongst those who'd like a little colour to their nursery.
You see, apart from the usual white and dark wood colours, this one here offers a light blue and light wood finishes as well.
Aside from the wide selection of colours, perhaps the biggest selling point of the Union convertible crib is its price.
Despite the colour price difference, most of the cribs are actually slightly over $100 only. Yes, even when you buy the Crib+Mattress package, the total price is only that of what most other single cribs are priced at, or even cheaper if we dare to say so ourselves.
Don't worry, the affordable price point does not mean quality is compromised in the process.
The Union 3-in-1 Convertible Crib is made of New Zealand pine wood, which is the same material that goes into highly rated cribs like this and this.
It also uses non-toxic, lead and phthalate safe finish, and meets ASTM international and US CPSC safety standards.
So in terms of safety and sturdiness, there is nothing to worry about the Union crib. It is very durable and will last you a long time.
Of course, you will have to accept that it may not have too much of a design i.e. no sleigh-style headboard or curved legs. Rather, it goes for a more minimalist and modern look that may even be more appealing to some.
Also, we do have to remind you that this is a 3-in-1 crib so unlike the 4-in-1, it can only be converted into a daybed and toddler bed, NOT a full-sized bed. And you will have to buy the conversion kit separately.
No doubt this will be quite the deterrence to some but again, its price more than make up for it. With the money saved, you can easily buy an adult, full-sized bed later when time needs be.
Aside from this 'shortcoming', the Union actually does a good job in other areas.
For instance, it offers four adjustable mattress levels so that you can adjust the mattress height accordingly as your baby increases mobility i.e. learns to sit up and stand.
Also, it is a GreenGuard Gold Certified baby crib. This means it has been tested for over 10,000 chemicals, ensuring it helps improve indoor air quality and thus creating a healthier environment for your baby to sleep, play and more.
As mentioned, not many baby cribs in the market receives such certification so this definitely comes as a surprise given the affordable price point of the Union.
