Babyletto Swell Changing Table - Cove Blue

This changing table is perfect for storing diapers and small newborn clothes. It will also work well for when baby gets bigger. The green color we ordered is gorgeous. Very study product and happy with our purchase.

I've had my eye on the Swell line since I found out I was pregnant, and I really wanted to love this! I'll start by saying that it is cute, but didn't meet expectations. First and biggest issue - this is NOT solid wood. I see they've removed the bit about "sustainably sourced solid New Zealand pine wood" from the description - but this is how it was advertised when I bought it. The shelves are a very, very thin MDF board - including the top shelf your baby will lay on! I feel this isn't very safe, and I will not be using this changing table for long. I don't love that Babyletto doesn't specify if the 30lb weight limit is per shelf, or for the entire unit? Aesthetically - the color is off from the advertised photos. They show a very warm, honey-toned stain. In person, there is a very gray undertone that makes this piece look washed out on my honey oak flooring. Also, instead of the front and back being the same construction-wise, they made it so the screw holes are on the outside of the boards on one side - meaning if one side gets dented/scratched (as soft pine does), you cannot just flip the piece around unless you want to see the screw holes. Also, the changing pad that comes with this is not the nicer contoured pad - it's a cheap, thin piece of foam wrapped in poly. Overall this piece just isn't any higher quality than Million Dollar Baby's other, cheaper brands. It's cute, it works, but for $300 I expected better.

Shelves are particle board with painted wood-look. The finish started peeling off in 3 months of minimal use. I thought for the price I was getting a furniture quality piece made of wood. It’s very expensive junk.

You kidding me? Def no
