Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

I spent $20

We had an armoire already, a family friend gave us a changing table and dresser. We bought a crib at BRU and had a gift card, but we had to pay some tax, so it ended up being around $20

If you have the money, and you think the furniture will last you, then go for it.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

We're debating between a few right now, with Pali being the most $$$$. For the same two pieces (crib, dresser) w/out tax & delivery it's $1698.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

I believe my paresnts are paying but I dont want to be nuts with it...i just dont see aything i like anywhere else...figures...

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

Pali was the 2nd choice but just as much $$$...did u look in Belini?

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

thats beautiful...im just so overwhelmed and i cant make any decisions....LOL

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

We bought a crib, armoire, and dresser from Bellini. It was around $2,000. Now I am spending another $1,600 for DD's "big girl bed" and mattress.
Hopefully it was all last until she goes off to college!

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

the furniture at Belini is just amazing, i wish i never went in there...LOL Behrs was great too but i like the idea that you can mix and match sets at bellini and they will all be the same color...at behrs you really cant mix as the tones of wood are different if you get diff. brands...i dont know, i am crazy i guess...how long does bellini furniture take to come in?

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

its just so hard to compare when they are all in different places....i need them lined up in front of me...hehehe

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

We picked out a crib, dresser, and cradle from Bellini. With delivery will be $2100. The crib turns into a full size bed.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

We got the crib and mattress as a gift. Bought a bookcase and dresser (to be used as changing table) from IKEA.

Spent less than $200. We live in an apt and space is an issue - so one of those big sets wouldnt fit anywhere - and I actually just liked the IKEA stuff a lot.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

The grandparents purchased the crib and combo dresser changing table. We purchased the glider and ottoman.

Bonavita - Peyton for the crib and dresser. 1000
We went for a high end mattress - 250
Dutalier glider and ottoman - 800

We looked at Belini, Behers, BRU and BBB on LI. We also looked at a couple of NJ stores. In the end we went with BBB. I looked at it as he will use the crib and changing table for 2 years. At that point we will get him real furniture and will want something "good." We figured the glider would be used for many years in multiple locations. We got the newest version of the Dutalier glider that has a removable slipcover. It is all upholstered.

We just needed a crib. It was almost $800 from Fortunoff Baby.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

Geez.. the set I want is almost 3k

Its Natart Verona...

Its the only one I liked and I can use the crib for the next baby and buy a todler bed to go with the set....

ahhh it better last me 2 kids!

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

I think about $1,200 for 3 pieces. We just couldn't see spending a crazy amount of $$ for furniture that is going to be used 2-3 years max.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

So Far...
Crib = Free
Mattress = $200
Bassinet = Gift/Free & $120.00 Shipping
Changing Table = Free
Armoire = Free
Glider = $160.00

I grabbed a brand new, almost never used crib for a friend, from another friend 2 years ago.
She hardly used it either.

My Godmother bought my sister the bellini bassinet for her 1st, 3 years ago for all of us to use w/ our children. I had to ship it from FL for $120.00

My MIL got a brand new in the box changing table from her friend.

The armoire was mine when I was a baby. I'm refinishing it.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

nice what color is it all?

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

altogether we spent about $2800 for a crib, dresser, nightstand (all by stanley young america) and glider (dutalier). we figured that the furniture was a good investment because the baby could use it forever (crib converts to a full bed) in his room, and we could use the glider with our next child.

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

Did you look at JC Penneys. My sister(stephanief) has pics in her album

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

I spent over $2K on a Munire set (lifetime crib/dresser/combo & hutch)

Re: How much are you spending on furniture???

In total it cost $3400. We ordered the Natart Chelsea... the crib that converts to a double bed, the "unit" which is a dresser/sheving/changing table that can be used as a desk after, and a lingere chest, along with the mattress, the toddler conversion kit, and the changing table pad.
