The available colors include cherry, coffee, oak, and white. The crib is JPMA certified and backed by a 1 year limited warranty. The dimensions are: 59 x 29.8 x 46.2 inches; weight: 51.5 pounds

Pros

The Rivington is a solid, sturdy crib that will hold up against your child jumping around. The design is very simple and traditional. The 4 level mattress support is an excellent feature. Most convertible cribs only offer 3, so the additional adjustment allows you to find the perfect level for you and you baby. The front part of the crib at the top slopes down a bit to make it easier to reach in. The assembly will take on average between 30 minutes to an hour, and is a straightforward process.

The crib is very well protected while shipped in order to prevent damage. All the pieces are wrapped and protected with styrofoam. There were very few complaints from customers about
receiving damaged or scratched parts, which is sometimes a problem with cribs being shipped. It’s JPMA certified, so safety is not an issue.

Priced at $178, this is an excellent option for those who want a convertible crib at a low price. Even though the price may be lower, this crib is made with quality.

I ordered this on a Monday afternoon and it was to my front door on Thursday (and that was the free super saver shipping). The box came in excellent condition and when I opened it I was surprised by the amount of protective styrofoam and how well the pieces were wrapped. I couldn’t find a scratch on anything!

Cons

One of the downsides is the visible hardware, which does take away some from the overall look of the crib. While sturdy, It’s not a super strong crib; but you wouldn’t expect it to be for the price. Keep in mind that pine does scratch easily, so be careful during assembly. Another word of caution about this crib: the white is a cream color, and the oak is orange-like.

Our only complaint is that it has holes on the front bottom for the expandable full size bed. It didn’t include any plugs to cover those up.

Summary

The DaVinci Rivington is a very solid crib overall. It’s sturdy, has 4 mattress levels, packaged well, and is priced under $200. The only downside really is the visible hardware.
