IKEA SNIGLAR Crib review

The IKEA SNIGLAR is the cheapest crib on this list at $129.99, and its main parts, spindles and bed base frame are solid beech. The design is basic. The bed base sets at two heights rather than the three or four on other cribs, and one side comes off when your child can climb in and out safely, which IKEA uses for its conversion. IKEA notes the conversion kit is included and the ventilated base helps air circulation. Published specs include a 50 lb max load, 6 3/4 inches of free height under the crib and outer dimensions of 53 7/8 by 29 1/8 by 33 1/8 inches. IKEA tells buyers to use a 27 1/2 by 52 inch crib mattress and recommends its own, such as the $75 PELLEPLUTT foam mattress, which keeps a full setup near $205. The ikea.com page showed 4.4 out of 5 stars from 690 reviews. It has no daybed or full-size bed stage.
