Cot "Gandylyan Monika" is quite popular with young families. The model itself is made in Russia. It is quite reliable and safe for the baby. But what else is its popularity? Does this product meet the criterion of "price-quality" or is it worth finding a better option? It's time to talk about everything in order.
"Gandylyan Monika": the price that can hit the wallet
Now the price of this product starts at 14 thousand rubles, and ends at around 20 thousand. To say that the "Gandylyan Monika" bed is budgetary is unlikely to succeed. After all, besides her, you need to purchase bed linen, a mattress and a pillow, and this costs a lot of money. Of course, you can try to buy it by hand, but the price may then drop by a maximum of two, or even one thousand.
In a word, such a purchase will seriously hit the wallet of a young family. And again, the question arises: "Does the price match the quality of this crib?". But more about that later, but for now you should get to know the characteristics of the crib, find out what the goods manufactured by the manufacturer "Gandylyan" are in general.
Safety comes first
After talking about the price and moving on to get to know the crib itself, safety first of all. "Gandylyan Monika" has silicone pads that play a big role. Firstly, if the baby accidentally falls, the pads will soften the blow. And secondly, the pads protect the tree from the teeth of the child.
The next safety factor is the high sidewalls that the Gandylyan crib has. Thanks to them, the baby will not be able to climb outside. In addition, the sidewalls have struts located close to each other, which eliminates the likelihood that the child will crawl between them.
Another point that is also pleasing in terms of safety is the lack of sharp corners on the bed. All corners are rounded, which gives even more protection against damage in case the baby accidentally hits the body.
Crib "Gandylyan": sizes
The crib is small in size, which allows you to place it even in a small room. In more detail, we can say the following:
- The width of the crib "Gandylyan Monika" is 67 centimeters with a berth width of 60 centimeters.
- The length of the crib is one meter 29 centimeters, and the length of the berth is one meter 20 centimeters.
- "Gandylyan Monika" has a height of 101 centimeters.
From the dimensions of the crib, you can understand that the child in it will feel quite comfortable. There is more than enough space not only for the baby, but also for his favorite toys. And the bed itself will not take up much space in the room.
Design features
As mentioned above, the bed has high sidewalls and silicone lining. About the sidewalls, it is also necessary to say that, if necessary, they can be easily lowered and then raised.
At the bottom of the bed there is a spacious drawer where you can put a blanket with a pillow or extra bedding. In the box there is a partition that divides it into two parts. What else pleases the drawer design, in addition to its size, is the absence of noise when opening and closing.
Another plus is the weight that the Gandylyan Monika bed has. The pendulum mounted on it can be fixed, which makes the cradle motionless. This crib is on wheels. They are quite strong, they will last a long time. Thanks to them, moving the crib to another place is not difficult. The wheels rotate all 360 degrees, which is their second plus.
Crib material
The material the bed is made of is natural. The case is made of beech. The tree itself is quite strong and durable. Due to this, the crib can serve more than one generation.
As for the box, here the manufacturers decided to limit themselves to particleboard. And the wheels are made of plastic, so you need to carefully roll the bed from place to place, otherwise the wheel may crack.
Crib color palette
"Gandylyan Monika" has a large color palette. In total, the bed has six colors, namely:
- Cherry.
- The natural color of the tree.
- Mahogany.
- White color.
- Ivory.
- Nut.
What is most interesting, basically the color does not affect the price of the crib, but after looking at some sites of stores, you can see that the price of a model with the color "Ivory" is two or three hundred rubles more expensive than others. What this is connected with is not entirely clear, but the fact remains. You just need to remember that there are stores in which color does not affect the price absolutely. To order a personal color, unfortunately, is not possible. But thanks to such a palette, it is unlikely that buyers will have problems with choosing the color of the bed. Polishing is applied over the paintwork. She is absolutely anti-allergenic. This coating not only gives shine, but also prevents the occurrence of various scratches on the surface of the crib.
Technical capabilities
The manufacturers of the crib tried to make it as convenient and versatile as possible. It has wheels with which it can be moved, it is also possible to lower the side racks, and their height is adjustable in two positions using a convenient lock. But there is another possibility that you need to know about - adjusting the position of the bed. A thing really necessary. And it requires special attention.
Thanks to this function, when the child is still very small, the bed can be lifted up. Due to this, it will be easier for the baby to take from the crib. But it is worth remembering that this position is suitable only until the child begins to stand on his feet. in this case, he will be able to climb over the fence.
The second position of the crib - the bed is down. This situation is just right for a child of an older age.
Customer reviews
The crib is produced in Russia, which is one of the factors of popularity of Gandylyan Monika products. Reviews are very diverse, ranging from positive to negative. Moreover, it is worth noting that, unfortunately, there are still more negative ones.
As for the positive reviews, they are mainly associated with the appearance of the crib. Beautiful paintwork, pleasant to the touch surface. The safety of the crib also did not go without positive reviews. Here in general, and all the positive aspects that buyers of this crib could see.
And now it's time for negative reviews. There will be more of them. In order not to get confused, first things first.
Almost all customers complain about a drawer at the bottom of the bed. The main inconvenience is that when the bed is in the upper position, the box is absolutely open from above. Because of this, bedding is quite dusty. According to people, one could come up with some kind of lid on top of the drawer. In addition, during the assembly process it turned out that the holes for the guides are often marked inaccurately.
The next point is the process of assembling the crib. Most people complain about the lack of information of the instructions that are attached to the bed itself. Because of this, it is difficult to understand what this or that part relates to, and which screw must be used to connect it. In addition, there are cases when the paint just flew off when the screws were screwed in.
The negative side of the users attributed the mechanism of lowering the sidewall. Often this mechanism is jammed.
As you can see, there were some flaws. Moreover, these flaws are not in any trifles or in things that you can close your eyes to and simply do not pay any attention to them, but in those places where errors are simply unacceptable. And here it is worth considering, but does the crib meet the criterion of price-quality? Or is it worth it to lower the price? Indeed, frankly speaking, the quality here is far from ideal. Yes, the bed is beautiful, comfortable and multi-functional, but it is still necessary to modify it.
Parents will decide whether to buy this bed for their child or not. The most important thing is not to make a mistake in your choice, so as not to regret the money and time spent in the future.
