Convertible cribs like the popular Sorelle Sophia 4-in-1 offer smart versatility, transforming from newborn crib to toddler bed, daybed, and full-size bed. But with so many options, choosing the right one means prioritizing safety, sturdiness, and ease of assembly. At Review Atlas, we evaluate based on real-world use: slat spacing under 2 3/8 inches, snug mattress fit (less than two fingers' gap), stability under 50 lbs of pressure, and certifications like GREENGUARD Gold for low emissions.
We've tested top models for crash resistance (simulating drops), fit integrity, and user-friendliness. Our scores factor in weight limits (up to 50 lbs as crib), conversion ease, and value under $400. Here's how the best stack up.
