My mom bought us a Combi Coccoro for our daughter. As soon as I opened the box and got a huge whiff of the fire retarding chemicals they douse the polyurethane seat cover in I knew it was going right back in the box and back to the store it came from (and hopefully into some unknown dimension where it couldn't do anyone any harm ever again). So gross and harmful to baby's health. I actually developed a sore throat and congested sinuses from contact with this car seat. I would never put an infant in something this toxic. It looks super cute and it is great that it can fit in smaller cars but the risk to baby's well-being just isn't worth it.

I actually purchased one of the Mint In Box Vintage Solid Wood Cribs mentioned above. I set it up exactly as pictured above and in accordance with the assembly instructions, and it collapsed. The mattress support and (gasp!) my two week old daughter fell to the ground. I was mortified! I contacted the seller who responded with the following:

Hi,
We apologize that you had a problem with the crib. We will contact Fedex and get a call tag for pick up.
Thank you,

When a FedEx driver arrived at my house I was told that the crib was going back to FedEx's facility to be inspected for damage... Seemed like the seller was trying to blame FedEx for the defective crib (boo).

It has been thirteen days since the seller first contacted me and still no refund.
