Gertie Crib Advantage

Safety and Functionality

The Gertie Crib stands out in both safety and functionality compared to standard full-size cribs, which, while compliant with CPSC safety standards, often lack user convenience. Traditional cribs are essentially designed as stationary boxes with non-adjustable side rails, necessitating the mattress to be lowered as the child grows, becomes heavier, and taller. This adjustment is meant to prevent the child from climbing out or falling, but it overlooks the significant inconvenience posed to caregivers. Lowering the mattress as the child grows means caregivers — particularly those with back conditions or who are taller or shorter than average — have to bend further, increasing strain and discomfort. In some cases, caregivers may even resort to standing on stools to reach their child at the crib's lowest level, introducing the risk of an accident. The Gertie Crib addresses these issues innovatively with its unique folding door design, maintaining the crib at a constant ergonomic height. This solution foregoes the need to adjust the mattress height, alleviates back strain, and facilitates easier access for cleaning and changing sheets, enhancing overall safety and functionality.

Gertie Crib Prevents Incorrect Lifting

Common causes of back strain include leaning forward and lifting incorrectly. To minimize this, it's advised to hold the baby close to your chest without bending over. The Gertie Crib's exclusive design significantly reduces the risk of unnecessary back strain by enabling you to lift the baby as recommended. Our patented Gertie Crib eliminates the need to bend your back when picking up the baby. Thanks to Gertie Crib's innovative door system and the ergonomic height of the mattress, you can maintain a correct posture while lifting your infant. Unlike traditional cribs that require you to continually lower the mattress as the baby grows, necessitating increasingly deeper bends to pick up your growing and heavier child, Gertie Crib keeps these demands minimal.

Adaptability for Physically Challenged

A Truly ALL-IN-ONE Crib

The Gertie Crib stands out as a truly all-in-one solution. Designed as a standard full-size crib, it occupies no more space in your nursery than other cribs, while eliminating the need for additional pieces of furniture like changing tables or drawers. The unique feature of the Gerie Crib is its fully openable side, providing complete and ergonomic access to the crib for changing the baby comfortably — all without the need for a separate changing table. Additionally, it offers overs over 20 cubic feet of storage space beneath the crib, perfect for stowing away baby essentials and toys in bins, further minimizing the need for extra furniture in the nursery. Gertie can be converted into a toddler bed in just minutes by simply removing the legs and four doors which are held in place with a total of eight screws. No additional hardware is needed for conversion.

A Statement of Elegance and Function

Beyond its innovative features, the Gertie Crib epitomizes elegance and serves as a statement furniture piece, enhancing any nursery aesthetic. It melds the beauty of clean lines and structural integrity, delivering a blend of sophistication, practicality, and contemporary design. Crafted from premium solid beech wood and available in four hand-painted hues, each Gertie Crib is an heirloom quality piece that complements a variety of nursery decors with its stunning appearance.

Gertie - A Cost-Effective High-End Crib

In the crowded market of baby cribs, the Gertie Crib distinguishes itself as a symbol of luxury and longevity without the steep price tag of comparable premium cribs. While similar high-end options can cost up to $4,000 after adding essential accessories and conversion kits, the Gertie Crib is priced at a more accessible $2,495. This price includes everything for a stylish, practical nursery, making it a smarter investment. By choosing the Gertie Crib, parents ensure a blend of quality, functionality, and value, securing a timeless piece that will be appreciated for generations.
