Great quality solid wood furniture!, November 6, 2007
Reviewer: alirebco from Annapolis, MD

Overall Grade   10.00/10  (10)


Pros: Solid wood construction, modern design, quick to arrive
Cons: Crib slats are thick so bumpers are hard to fit, cost

We purchased the Pali Carrigan series and we got the crib and the 6 drawer long dresser. It arrived in about 7 weeks, even though the store quoted us 10-14 weeks. I was also able to call 1 week after I ordered it to get a timeframe of when it would come in.

The quality is beautiful and incredibly solid. I love how the crib can convert to a fullsize bed when we need it to and that this furniture will last our child through high school. It doesn't look babyish and the quality will last.

The only issue is that the corner posts are hard to tie bumpers on, so if you are interested in using a bumper, you might want to check before you buy. It is expensive, but considering how long we are planning on using it, we are ok with the cost.

Other than that, we love it and are very happy with our purchase!

WOW ! What Quality. PALI is worth every penney., June 21, 2007

Pros: The Construction, The Finish, The Style, The Delivery
Cons: Nothing

We shopped all over and finally decided on Pali. We choose the Rosalia crib in cherry and the 4000 combo, hutch and armoire in cherry. We bought from BUY BUY Baby in Paramus, NJ and had a wonderful experience. At first I was overwhelmed by all the choices and all the different prices.

I was tempted to go for some of the stuff from China and Indonesia because of the price, but if you check, the quality is not so good and the finish is always rough or dinged up to cover up poor workmanship.

In the end our decision to buy high quality furniture is going to really pay off. I am sure we will use our Pali furniture for our next child as well.

Just touch and compare the feel of Pali with anything else in the store and you can tell how carefully the product is made.

The construction has dovetailed drawers, solid tops and drawers. The crib and furniture has a silky smooth finish.

The Rosalia crib is beautiful and solid. WOW ! Made in Italy. I love it !

We purchased Pali in late April and it was delivered the 1st week of June. about 6 weeks. No problems.

I love showing off T's nursery.

Beautiful crib, but expensive, October 1, 2005
Reviewer: magge from Philadelphia, PA

Overall Grade   9.00/10  (9)


Pros: Beautiful, well-made, excellent quality
Cons: price

We have two of the Pali Rosalia cribs in Hazelnut. They are simply beautiful! They are outstanding quality and beautiful design. We received ours as gifts (we were able to pick out the design), but these are quite expensive cribs. We probably would not have been able to get them on our own.

Excellent Crib if you can find a deal, August 21, 2005

Pros: Superior quality, materials, and style
Cons: Poor customer service, high price

I was able to purchase my Pali Paula sleigh crib (in natural) second-hand from a friend (<$100) in excellent condition. Although a 1998 model, it is still gorgeous. It was put through the ringer with 3 girls, but the dried spit up and mushed cheerios wiped off effortlessly. I love the curved lines of the crib, its rounded/sanded-smoot h edges and JPMA compliance (no gaps, sharp edges). I also like the safety of the concealed plastic hardware. The knee-push rail glides smoothly after hundreds of ups and downs (although it clicks louder than expected). If its condition after being used for so long doesn't speak to the quality, I don't know what does.

I love the beechwood--so hard it resists teethmarks (in fact, most Palis don't come with plastic teething guards). Pali finishes go great with their other case pieces, although I hear Rumble Tuff has a stain to match so you can save money on the dresser/changing table.

I am very well aware of the shoddy customer service. I was given a toddler bed conversion rail that was broken and God forbid anyone answer the phone for their parts line so I can get a replacement . Anyways, b/c I lost both of my pregnancies before I had a chance to use the crib long-term , I don't have any other comments than what I noticed when I set them up & played around with them.

Ebay has great deals for local pickups of gently used Palis. You can't beat the quality and beauty for the price. If I were buying new, I might be tempted to go elsewhere b/c most vendors don't keep Palis in stock and the price can be steep at $400-700 (depending on the model).
