The latter is generally more expensive but has an attractive finish and comes in a variety of colour choices.
Choosing the most suitable wood for your cot is vital as it determines how durable and attractive it will appear. Fortunately, the majority of dark hardwoods are naturally sturdy and dense, meaning they are less prone to damage and warping than lighter woods. Mahogany or oak, as well as walnut are all well-known selections. Mahogany has a rich, luxurious aesthetic while walnut is a stunning combination of shades and textures. Oak is an extremely robust and durable option that is often seen in high-end intricate furniture.
No matter how many changes are planned, a good crib will also be easy to clean. It can also blend into the design of your nursery.

It comes with three adjustable base levels for the most comfortable sleeping position, teething rails and a useful storage drawer. We love that the mattress is standard size, too which makes the process of buying bedding much easier.
