I have added to my post that your cribs are beautiful and that you no longer manufacture cribs with the drops sides. I also added your information for customers who have a drop side crib.

I really did fall in love with your cribs in 2006 when I had my first child and reccomended them to many of my friends, who have them now. The piece that broke was the plastic insert that is located inside the drop crib rail. It snapped where you are supposed to “slide” the crib rail in and then flip it down to lock into to place. I have now made the rail stationery since I did not really use the drop side anyway.

I certainly would have emailed you if my plan was to get another crib like the “Dick”, but I have decided to go a different direction. I am very short and these tall cribs are a problem for me. I loathe changing the crib sheet, do not use bumpers for dafety reasons and like I said in my post, both of my kids have been scratched many a time going underneath a crib. So, the cribs out there today are not for me, especially since I am saving our pennies for a renovation!

I would have no issue purchasing anther Bratt Decor crib for baby Violet if they were low to the ground and I was allowed to spend the money again! Your Soho and Blu cribs are absolutely gorgeous!

I am posting this as a comment so that any readers who may stumble upon this post can see how much I appreciate your note and how lovely I think your cribs are.
