STORKCRAFT Remi 4-In-1 Convertible Crib & Changer

With Covid and issues with items being restocked, my #1 choice became unavailable between me adding it to the cart and attempting to show it to the hubby before ordering a few days later. So glad it ended up that way because we love love love this crib.

We thought we would be smart and build it in our living room where there’s plenty of room to lay the pieces out. We were too tired to move it after we completed it so we went to sleep. I woke up panicked when I remembered – we have narrower than standard doors. Yup, you guessed it, we had to partially deconstruct it and put it back together in its proper room. As we were rebuilding my hubby seemed super happy while I was pretty dang anxious. Taking apart cheaper furniture and then rebuilding it is usually a no-no. But they reinforced the screw holes with metal. Yay! Our goof did not affect the crib or its stablity at all. This was when my hubby admitted to me then that he had been anxious about using it as a toddler bed later but after having to take it partially apart and rebuilding those pieces? He now feels very comfortable and wants to look for more furniture by this company.

Also we don’t have a lot of furniture, so having the changing table being built in and the three smaller drawers + the two cube spaces + the big drawer under the crib = A+ for the storage.

If you need storage + a changing table, this is the way to go.

We found only one itty bitty teeny paint chip presumably caused in transit. We had to look for it though and once put together it was not at all noticeable. No complaints.

When UPS delivered the crib, the box looked like it been through a military airplane drop. One corner was crushed and spilling out styrofoam, both ends were re-taped by someone other than the shipper, the straps had dug in deep into the box. When I opened the box there was a hodgepodge of items everywhere. To my great surprise, every single item was intact, and only one item showed some minor scratches.

The number of parts is overwhelming, and having some markings on each part would be helpful, but if you take your time it all goes together quite well. There are a few places where an extra set of hands would have been helpful, but I was able to put the crib together within 3 hours without help. I did use a rechargeable drill (careful not to be too aggressive and over tighten any bolts or screws) which I’m sure saved a ton of time. You need an Allen head and a Phillips head.

Overall I was pleasantly surprised how well the entire project went considering the condition of the box. Hardware was well organized and complete. A very well engineered product. I wouldn’t recommend this project for someone that lacks general experience in these types of endeavors, the instructions are much more engineering schematic style rather than step by step instructions with explanations.

 Todo viene al 100 buen material

Crib arrived on time, box was 8n good condition and the pieces were not damge. As for the assembly, just like any job, if you rush it, you will miss a step or a piece. Took me around 1h to put it together. The direction is self explanatory. Wood quality is ok, so don’t squeeze or handle the pieces to hard, they migh crack. Remember, its is baby crib so treat it as such. Other than that, I am a satisfied customer, love the color and can’t wait for my little boy to be in it.
