Our Recommendations:
This crib is highly recommended for parents in apartments or homes with limited space, or those needing a portable sleep solution (e.g., for use in different rooms or at a caregiver's). For enhanced comfort, we strongly suggest purchasing the compatible Pure by babyletto mini crib mattress (approx. 37″ x 23.5″) as the included 1″ pad offers minimal support. Ensure wheels are locked when the crib is stationary.
Conclusion:
The Babyletto Origami Mini Crib successfully blends style, safety, and convenience, particularly for families in smaller living spaces. Its portability, folding design, and Greenguard Gold certification make it a compelling alternative to traditional bassinets or larger cribs for the first 18+ months. While an additional mattress purchase is recommended for optimal comfort, its sustainable construction and ease of use offer significant value for modern parents prioritizing flexibility and health.

In love!
It’s lovely. There was a small dent in the top part of the left side, but I was too impatient to complain and wait for a replacement. My husband will buff it out. Really easy to assemble and I like that I it’s portable when necessary. We needed a space saver since currently the baby will be in the guest room. This crib has wheels, we just didn’t put them on. It’s definitely not the cheapest mini crib option, but it’s sturdy-portable-and just about perfect for us. I also was able to use a standard crib sheet, with a mattress pad underneath and I upgraded the standard mattress, it’s snug and doesn’t allow for any sheet movement.

Perfect Mini Crib!
Pros: Quality of the mini crib is great, love that it’s on wheels, folds down flat for easy storage, range of colors, light weight.Cons: First set up is a bit of work – Two hands makes it easiest.

Very cute
It was really easy to put together, even with a bit of confusion with instructions. Be careful not to over tighten because it will crack the wood (my bad). It folds nicely with base and mattress. One thing you must do is get a different mattress than what it comes with. I read the reviews so I was prepared for that. The picture shows the thin plastic one & the thicker, plush one (it is a mini mattress by Newton).

Love this crib
I bought this crib to have at my house for my grandson. It is wonderful. I keep the mattress support in the upper level and use it as a changing table as well. I bought the Newton mini crib mattress as well and it fits perfectly. I also bought one for a summer place we have. My daughter came to stay with the baby and liked it so much we bought another one for her home since my grandson had outgrown the bassinet but they did not yet want to put him in his own room which has the full size crib. We’ll soon have to move the mattress down to the lower level since he is rolling about now. This crib is very sturdy and very easy to collapse and store when it’s no longer needed.

Compact and sturdy
My grandchildren are expecting and chose this crib. It is really pretty and fits their small apartment perfectly. It was easy to assemble and is sturdy enough for the first few years.

Love this crib.
I love this mini crib. It’s so simple and pretty. It’s also very sturdy but still easy to unlock breaks and move if needed. It came with a mattress pad but it was super thin and I prefer to use the Nook Mini mattress instead. It fits perfectly.

Looks good!
Honestly I told my husband to reserve 3 hours to assemble this bc of the negative reviews about assembly. He timed himself and was done in 40 minutes. He called it “cake” and said that whoever took 3 hours -nope, filter, I’ll keep that between us. There was a light odor unpacking the pieces but nothing of concern, and it dissipated before he was done assembling it 😉. An even lesser odor has lingered a bit but gets better each day. It seems rather sturdy. I got the natural color version so there’s no paint issues. No dings or issues with quality. My baby was nice and calm when we set her down in it (win)!
