Since there seems to be some confusion over this:

American Academy of Pediatrics say bumper pads have no place in crib



Researchers found reports from medical examiners and coroners of 27 accidental deaths of children ages 1 month to 2 years, that were attributed to suffocation when they became wedged against a padded bumper or strangulation by a bumper tie around the neck.

A pretty crib is so not worth it.

(Crashing)

Besides the risk of suffocating, bumpers are known to reduce proper air flow around the baby. They trap CO2 therefore the baby is rebreathing it without proper levels of oxygen.
