I bought furniture from Pottery Barn Teen so my kid could use it longer. It has held up very well.

Kids furniture is typically safe in the US, so that won't make a difference.
But there's nothing wrong with wanting "nice" furniture for your kids (especially your first, ha).
Not true. Many baby items are glued together with toxic materials like formaldehyde.
+1 to this. In comparison, Ikea has to manufacture by the super high German standards for kids furniture.

We bought a convertible crib/dresser/nightstand for our 1st and handed it down to our 2nd. It’s still in amazing shape and the younger one will continue to use it for many years. The kids are not kind to the furniture (climb on it, bite it, etc.) it is in way better condition than the furniture in our room from city furniture.

OP here. I think it’s a dresser that is more than for a baby. It’s a very nice drawer that can be used for a long time. We plan to have 2-3 kids.
Just remember kids have a way of destroying things. Sometimes things don't last as long as you think they will - especially with three little kids.

I like PB dressers. Very solid and long lasting. Our 5 year old Da Vinci dresser already needed some TLC as one of the drawer bottoms became warped.

We bought the Larkin set and have converted the crib to a full bed. Works for our 4 year old and intend to keep it throughout elementary school

Can’t speak to the baby furniture, but we have a play table that converts to a desk. We put it in our family room in place of a coffee table. One our best decisions ever. Weve had it roughly 10 years. It’s taken a lickin’ and kept on tickin’. It’s been great for board games, wooden trains, and family room picnics. We keep workbooks in the drawers. I would do again in a heart beat. Hopefully the PB products today are just as durable.

I like our PBK furniture and everything has held up great but so have our cheap things from IKEA.

It’s worth it. We have the Larkin with the Kendall dresser. Both have held up over the last 5 years and two kids. It’s worth the price to know you’re getting safe furniture.

I’ve been looking at poetry barn cribs, dressers, and chairs but they are expensive. Is the price worth or should we go with something cheaper? We specifically looking at the Larkin crib, Larkin or Kendall dresser, and the comfort swivel glider. DaVinci also has some nice furniture and it’s much cheaper.
