We've had a really good experience with Ikea furniture in the nursery. I think the common fear with Ikea is that it's going to be poor quality or unsafe somehow, since it's so inexpensive. That's not the case in my opinion. Ikea comes highly rated by Consumer Reports and Baby Bargains. And it really is a bargain!
We have the Hemnes dresser and bookshelf for Miss A. Her crib is the Sundvik. It's a very safe and sturdy crib. Trust me, she rolls around like crazy, and stands up in her crib. That thing is solid.
Good morning, Mama!
One advantage of Ikea is that you can get it right away. No waiting 6 weeks for it to be ordered. Of course the drawback is that you have to put it together yourself. This wasn't a huge issue for us. We got it done in an afternoon, but it's something to consider if you're not handy at all. The other con would be just going to Ikea, which can be an overwhelming experience. Hey, you can always console yourself with the best meatballs you can have in a furniture store.
