Some cribs in this review offer the option to convert into a toddler bed or daybed like the Babyletto Hudson 4-in-1 and Delta Children Tribeca. most recommended cribs require an extra purchase to complete the conversion. This is a major disadvantage if you're not planning on using the conversion kit, but still want a crib that lasts through several children and beyond.
The Storkcraft Equinox is one of the mattress heights with the lowest sitting we've looked at, which could be an advantage if you are short or have a parent who is small. However, the low height could be a problem particularly when your child begins pulling herself up and climbing out of her crib. It also has a higher profile than other minimal cribs in the review, which could make it more difficult to reach your child at the night.
