Graco Shelby Classic 4 in 1 Convertible Crib, Cappuccino
Review by Sara : Very pleased

This is as good looking in person as I'd hoped. It was very straight-forward to put together, pretty easy. It holds a standard sized mattress, but is not much bigger than that, which I like. The wood for the slats, it's not as thick as I'd expected. Seems typical for mass produced furniture though. Out of all the cribs I looked through, this was my favorite one, and I was glad it was such a good price. Once I got it together, I wasn't disappointed at all.

Review by adbh : careful buying mattress!

I bought this crib and it is definitely a good value and looks nice. Definitely seems low, but we wanted something simple. My husband did struggle with the fact that some of the screws were slightly longer than others and needed to be used in the correct location.

However, the crib comes with a big sign that says it should only be used with mattresses at least 27 1/4" by 51 5/8", and most mattresses (including the Sealy Ultra Rest listed as commonly purchased with this crib that we bought) are only 27" by 51.5"

Review by Kathryn Metzger "Mom_of_7" : Couldn't be more pleased!

I am very happy with this crib. We purchased two for our twins who are about to turn 2. They had slept together up until a few months ago, and we decided it was time to split them up. We wanted matching convertible cribs, and finally chose these after reading lots of reviews and looking at innumerable other selections. I couldn't be more pleased. There are quite a lot of screws, and it did take about an hour per crib to put together, but as long as you lay out all the pieces ahead of time then it goes quite smoothly. It is definitely lower than most cribs, not because the bedding/sleeping section is any smaller, but because it is on very short legs as opposed to higher/taller legs on most cribs. This is actually a good thing... when the twins are old enough to convert these into toddler beds, then I will want them to be closer to the floor and not so high up. The color is quite beautiful...a warm, rich brown and not "cheap" looking at all. The outline/shape of the crib is very graceful and classy. We have both blue and pink themed bedding (for boy/girl twins), and the wood tone goes beautifully with both. As a mom of 7, I have had to purchase my fair share of baby products, and overall I can't enough good things about this crib.

Review by A. Koita : Fabulous!

The crib was just as I had pictured it. It was easy to put together. I am 5'3" and most cribs are just too tall for me which is why I chose this crib. It is a perfect height. Definitely recommend this crib for new mommies like me!

Review by S. Jordan : Love this crib.

I absolutely love this crib. It was very easy to put together. I was 7 months pregnant and put it together by myself. Has a very nice look. It is shorter than most cribs, but I dont see that as a problem, just different. I am 5'6" and my husband is 6'3", it doesnt bother either one of us. Well made and affordable!

Review by effulgent7 : beautiful crib

This is a great crib for the price. Very easy to put together, decent directions, and looks nice when completed. There is one board that goes underneath that seems to have no purpose (decorative?), that was a little confusing.

Our only issue was that it was damaged during shipping- a hole punched through the middle of the box that bent a small area of the box spring and chipped the wood on one of the slats. We did not consider this a big enough issue to send it back, but contacted the manufacturer to let them know and that they might want to consider another shipper. Turns out the manufacturer is replacing the whole side of the crib where the chip is! That is a nice effort on their part.

Review by M. Thomas "mthom" : Nice Crib, and great customer service

We really like this Shelby Classic Crib in Dark Walnut. We saw some reviews about the crib's low profile, but we don't think it is an issue. I actually like the low profile and I'm 6 feet tall. The crib was easy to put together and the dark walnut color is very nice.

On the one I was shipped, one of the wood sides had a defect (definitely not from shipping). An email to Graco customer support with a picture of the defect and they quickly responded by shipping a new part with no hassle.

As always Amazon delivered quickly and had the best price. My first place to shop, always.

Review by D. Prichard : Love this crib!

I finally ordered this crib after looking at lots (and I mean lots) of cribs and their reviews. This is an awesome crib! It is a cinch to put together, is very sturdy, and looks great! It is elegant, yet practical. I have the crib in the cappuccino color; the color is warm and rich...very nice. We were looking for a crib that would be able to fit into our bedroom and not be too large, and this one was it. It fits a standard sized 52 x 28 crib mattress; the difference is that it doesn't sit as high as other standard cribs but, for me, this was what I was wanting and looking for. After doing alot of reading and research on SIDS (since my husband had a daughter who died from SIDS), we paired this with a Naturepedic Organic mattress and CozyWedge bumpers (instead of the traditional bumpers which can pose a suffocation hazard), and our five-month old son has had no problems sleeping peacefully in this crib. I highly recommend this beautiful crib!!

Review by Marilyn in Iowa : Beautiful Crib

This was my first attempt at assembling anything and it was not difficult at all. The color is exactly as pictured and the wood is beautiful. The crib is very sturdy and I would highly recommend this crib to anyone.

Review by Sheryl Darlow "HR Guru" : Fantastic Crib!

With twin boys coming I wanted something reasonably priced that looked nice and didn't take up too much space like the Lifetime cribs we've seen at the baby stores. This crib is not only so beautiful in person but it was a breeze to put together. I did it with my stepdaughter while I was 7 months pregnant with twins. And we did two of them! The color matches the Leksvik "Antique" furniture I bought from Ikea perfectly! We have two guest rooms with furniture and full size solid wood beds so we didn't want to spend alot on furniture that we wouldn't need when they get bigger. I love that this crib converts so they can continue to share a room until they are out of the toddler stage (mainly for the ease of us parents who have to respond to the needs of two babies/toddlers at once). I can't recommend it enough and NO ONE should be disappointed with this crib. It does sit lower than alot of other cribs, but my husband is 6'2 and he has no problem with it. It only takes 2 seconds to bend over and pick up a baby or put a pacifier back in their mouth. I highly recommend this beautiful practical crib!
