Twin Cribs

There are actually some truly unique twin cribs available. We will go over this diverse group so you can get a good idea of what each one features as well as what you can expect to spend (they are much more costly than a single crib). Having a special crib for twins might make all the difference to some parents, and knowing what’s out there may help with planning a double nursery ahead of time. We will also provide a bit of information on twin bassinets.

1) The first type of crib for twins we’ll talk about is made by a company called Baby Trilogy Inc. They have designed the distinctive Corner Crib. When you put two corner cribs together they form a cool semi-circle layout. The unique pie wedge shape also allows for many more space saving arrangements. Be sure to take a look at their "Corner Cribs Arrangements" page for some great examples of just how versatile this crib is.
You can expect to pay around $600 for a single corner crib. Additionally, you will need the specially made bedding and mattress. Here is their extensive price list.


2) The next twin crib we will explain is the popular, Duetta Round Crib Mate Twin Round Crib. Two round cribs are designed to connect for an adorable twin crib that truly makes a statement. It features four different canopy configurations, and the two mattresses are included as well. You will likely need a bit more space for this set up given that it’s really meant to be in the center of the room (or at least away from the wall). So far, I have found the best price to be around $2,200 (click picture below to visit site). Keep in mind you will have to buy bedding, as well.

3) There are two different configurations of a great twin crib (called a twin cot) at twins things.com from the UK. They offer the award winning Corner Cot for twins which will accommodate your babies from infancy to about 5 years of age. This cool design also converts to a sweet little corner sofa with the additional kit.
The other design is their practical Twin Cot which is essentially like having two cribs put together end-to-end. It may also be converted into two twin size beds with an additional kit.
You can count on paying around 650 GPB (United Kingdom Pounds), or $1,329 USD for the corner cot (not including conversion kit). And you’ll pay around 599 GPB, or $1,224 for the twin cot (not including conversion kit). They will ship overseas if you don’t live in the UK, but you will need to contact them.


4) When it comes to innovative twin cribs, take a look at the one offered at netkidswear.com. It has a fabulous, space-saving, twin bunk design. When you have limited space for your twins, this may well be a good choice. You can acquire this clever twin crib for about $700 plus $150 in shipping.

5)The The Alana Twin Dropside Cot/Crib was designed with twins in mind. Not only does it have a smart configuration, it also has coordinating nursery furniture. The toy box, changing table, and wardrobe complete this darling set that's perfect for any combination of twins. In essence, this crib is like putting two standard cribs together side by side, but with a fixed center rail. It includes two space saving drawers underneath, as well. You can expect to pay approximately $511 USD (260 UK Pounds - GBP), but you will need to purchase the mattresses separately...Still, a bargain. They currently only ship to the UK Mainland, but state that they are working towards extended service. You can contact TuttiBambini.com for further information.
6)Yet another bright idea is to just get two Mini Cribs. They come with standard features of regular cribs, but they are smaller and lighter, making them great space-savers. A good value, they can also be converted to twin beds (conversion kit sold separately) to accommodate your growing twins. At around $230 a piece, they may well be the best bang for your buck.

Twin Bassinets
Lastly, if you are looking for a twin bassinet, twinsthings.com offers an absolutely charming wicker set. However, you will need to contact them for pricing and available colors.
Another consideration is the Graco Pack N Play - Scout which converts from a twin bassinet to their trendy Pack N Play (pictured below). Graco Pack N Play - Scout


Co-Sleep Alternative
While your twins are very young you could have them co-sleep in one standard crib. This is possible with a crib spacer or divider (pictured below). It may be an affordable alternative, but can generally only be done for the first few months.
