If you’re expecting a baby soon, it’s important that you have everything ready for its arrival. The crib is essential, but also having a comfortable and functional changing station is important too. Now you can have the best of both worlds by getting a crib with changing table attached on the side. This is very convenient for parents, because the sleeping area and changing station are close by. Plus the changing table has several shelves and/or drawers, where you can keep all the essentials your baby needs, such as: diapers, lotions, towels, etc. In addition to this, in most cases getting a crib changing table combo, is less expensive when compared to buying these two items separately.
How to choose a crib with changing table combo?
There are several things you should keep in mind when choosing a crib with changing table. Here are some tips that will make your shopping easier:
- These types of cribs are longer and measure around 70-72 inches long, since the changing table is attached on the side.
- The changing table is not detachable, it’s meant to be used the whole time you’re using the crib, the daybed and toddler bed. Only when you convert it into a full size bed (with the additional full bed conversion rails), you can remove the changing table. This means that once your child uses the toddler bed, you can use the shelves or drawers for toys and other belongings.
- The changing table can vary by the number of drawers and shelves it has. You’ll be able to find some with only shelves, while others may have two or three drawers, and even an under bed drawer. The features and storage depends on your personal preference and how much kids storage you have in your nursery.
- If you buy a 4-in-1 convertible crib it can be used as a baby crib, a daybed, toddler bed and even a full size bed. However in most cases you’ll need to buy a toddler bed guard in order to use the toddler bed safely, and if you want to convert it into a full size bed you’ll need the additional bed conversion rails (they usually cost around $99). This is a good option to consider, since you can later use the full size bed for a guest room or when your child gets older.
