Side by Side Comparison of: Childcraft vs Delta Children

Many people will tell you a changing table is a waste of money, change on the bed or counter. Don't listen to them. This thing is a life saver. Changing at chest height is way better than bending over and more storage is never bad. Quality of this for the price is great. Includes straps to hold your little one away from the edges. We got the whole nursery set and couldn't be happier with it

I got this to go in our living room to house our son's "stuff" It holds a lot of clothes, diapers, and has a great shelf for changing his diaper. It is sturdy, was easy for my husband to put together. I will probably keep it for something once we are done using it for our son.

The quantity of wood is okay, it's not going to last forever but even if it last for few years, it's worth the price and that's my hope. The look is good and it feels sturdy enough for a changing table. I got this for my two yr old who is very small. I should have bought it when he was a baby. I won't use it much as a changing table, but I am happy about all the storage space it has thanks to the three tiered shelving. All the diapers and creams etc fit on this and it's definitely an upgrade to a previous side table we had and all the cream bottles etc would just fall off from it in part thanks to our toddler.The Expresso cherry color matches very well with his Expresso crib which is a Davinci 4-in-1 know Kalani.

This is the second time we purchased this product. Now both boys have this great changer. It is sturdy and has great aesthetic appeal. Goes well with both of our cribs even though they are different brands.

I love this! I bought the Delta Children Eclipse Changing Table, Espresso; the Delta Children Universal 6 Drawer Dresser; and the Stork Craft Tuscany 4-in-1 Convertible Crib for my nursery. All of the furniture pieces match (even though the crib is a different brand), and I love them all. The changing table was super easy to put together, in fact I did it by myself and didn't need any help. It took me about a half an hour to put together by myself. It was packaged well, and there was no damage or chips when I opened the box. The finish looks really nice, not cheap like some other furniture I've seen. When I opened the box you could smell the finish a little bit, but after about an hour of being out there was no smell at all. It's very sturdy and even after a few months of use it has held up really well. While it does come with a changing pad for the table, I didn't know how thin it would be so I bought the Summer Infant Contoured Changing Pad. it fits on top of the one that comes with the table and is still below the rails, but actually the pad that comes with it is pretty substantial and I maybe wouldn't have needed the contoured one. I would want a cover if using the pad that comes with it, though,as it has a plastic feel and would be cold on baby all by itself. The shelves are a good size, and we aren't even using all of the space.

This is a great wooden baby changing table. It is solid and sturdy and has a strap to on the table to help assist in securing the baby. Obviously don't leave your baby unattended on the changing table. This is nice to have especially for fidgety babies. To add additional stability I added wood glue to all the wood dowels and all the groves/slats. We liked this changing table so much we bought another one for our main floor.The opening for the pad, which is sold separately, is about 33.5" by about 16.5".

I assembled this in about 30 minutes by myself, the directions weren't too complicated. I thought the shelves were a little flimsier than I expected, and they slide around a bit in the setting, but seem to hold weight pretty well. I was just expecting them to be wood instead of particle board. They also were painted rather poorly, as if they should have had one more coat to be true 'white'. But, all assembled the piece is pretty sturdy, holds baskets of baby stuff no problem, and looks nice.

Good changer for the price. Roomy shelves easily accommodate Pottery Barn's XL nursery baskets. Three minor issues: arrived with minor, but noticeable, damage in an obvious spot; a lot of off-gassing upon opening; one of the rail edges was so rough it had to be sanded. Overall, was a very good fit for my granddaughter's nursery.

It went together much easier than I expected which was great as I am not usually good at that sort of thing. Shelves are a little lighter than I expected, but seem to be strong enough for the baskets of things I have on them. Looks very nice with dark colored covered baskets on the shelves.

Great table though a little short (I'm 5'8"). Needed to get risers for it so I didn't have to bend down to change the baby.

This changing table is working out well so far. We also have the matching crib. You will want to buy stickers that cover the screw holes, that's why I give 4 stars.

The height is right for diaper changes, and it is not too large. Assembly was easy, and the piece is sturdy and attractive.We do not use the thin pad it comes with, so docking a star. We use this with the Keekaroo Peanut changing pad; it fits perfectly.Three of the ClosetMaid 879 Closet Fabric Drawers fit perfectly across the lower shelves, which makes this piece great (and inexpensive) for storing all diapering and bathtime baby stuff.For baths we take the Keekaroo changer off and put the Fisher Price Whale of a Tub on the top.

I bought this for my sister when she had her son almost 2 years ago. She used it for him and then again for his sister who is 6 months old now. It is a great changing table, love the color and quality--and despite what many of the other reviews claimed, there was no weird smell to it at all. Lots of space underneath for storage. Unfortunately, she had to throw it out after a hurricane hit her house a few weeks ago. I would recommend this to any new parents or to someone looking to buy a nice baby shower gift.

I like this changing table and it serves its purpose. However, I feel like it's a little lower than the one we purchased from Babies R Us. Additionally, the side panels are lower than I'd like and it could be a real security concern if someone left baby for even a second (which I don't recommend anyway).

Product was easy to put together and love the fact that Delta has a youtube channel where they show you how to put their products together. The quality control could be better because some of the pieces came damaged at the edges but I was able to hid the damage by having those pieces hiding underneath. Took a star off for that but would purchase again.

We really like this changing table! It arrived very quickly (thanks, Amazon Prime!) and there were no damaged or missing pieces. Assembly was super easy.I'm not very fond of the changing pad that comes with it. It's pretty thin, and has a safety strap that sticks straight up from underneath it which I don't imagine will be very comfortable for the baby. But that strap unscrews easily and we can buy another changing pad no problem. This one would be fine, I'm just picky!One recommendation with the directions: I would suggest screwing the top/backboard piece (the tall, curved piece that goes against the wall) into one side *before* screwing on the other side piece. The directions tell you to attach this piece last, but then you kind of have to shove it down between the two sides and when we did this it scratched the sides up a little bit which was disappointing. Otherwise, assembly wasn't a problem at all, and the scratching probably wouldn't have happened if we were more careful sliding the last piece in.As a whole, we love this changing table and can't wait to try it out when baby comes!!!

Great, sturdy changing table. Made of solid wood. It was a little shorter than we wanted (I'm 5'8", husband is 5'7"), but it seems hard to find any changing tables that are tall and the dimensions were clearly listed so we knew what we were getting. Our solution was to buy some risers here on amazon -- that worked great. Only complaint with this changing table is that if it gets wet (our baby has a firehose) the wood swells and paint begins to chip.Link for the risers we purchased: Home-it Adjustable Bed Risers or Furniture Riser bed lifts in Heights of 8, 5 or 3 Inches Heavy Duty Set of 4 bed riser

I read the various reviews before I made my purchase so I had a good sense of what I was getting into. I could bought a much more expensive table, but ultimately chose this table because it received high scores for safety, quality, and sturdiness. Now in hand, built, but waiting to use any day now (baby will be here any day now), I'm almost certain my own full review (including review after actual use versus review of just quality and safety) will echo the other positive reviews by others before me.The assemble is a relatively easy feat. It took me approximately 50-60 mins.Great price here in Amazon versus other sites and with Prime, it's a saving that goes back into your own pocket.

The table is solid and has great storage on the bottom two shelves! Arrived in great condition and was relatively easy to put together. Three stars because this changing table really should be made several inches longer. We use a summer infant changing pad and this leaves only 3-4 inches to store things on the top of the table next to the pad. It would be much more useful if a pampers wipes container could fit next to it!

Easy to assemble and matches our Delta crib nicely, however the changing table has a somewhat narrow base which limits stability somewhat. Will definitely need to be secured to the wall for peace of mind, but this is still a nice little changing table. Storage options are limited too.

Tedious but not awful assembly. One of the 'Middle E. Lower Rails x 4' cracked and split lengthwise upon tightening of 'Hardware and Tools' with 'M4 Allen Wrench X 1.' This after the instructions said not to chip the paint. Not shocking. Disappointing. Not the most sturdy, stable or well crafted.

Delta Children Eclipse Changing Table, Espresso CherryThis product is very nice quality, looks nice and matches the Delta crib perfectly. However the changing table is SUPER SHORT. The changing table needs to be put on risers of some sort to be able to use it like a normal changing table without having to bend over to change the baby. Delta needs to raise the height of this product drastically. I am not a tall person and it needs to be taller. I can't even imagine what it would be like for a tall person.

As my son isn't quite here yet, I haven't had the chance to use it but I am disappointed in how short it is. I am 5 foot 9 inches and have to hunch over. If I had done the smart thing and measured, I probably wouldn't have bought it, but it's here and put together so it's staying. I'm not really looking forward to changing diapers on it because of the height. Tall or semi-tall people I encourage you to check the measurements and plan accordingly. I should have. The upside is, it came in great condition and looks really nice. I'll probably change diapers on my daughter's changing table when I can, instead.

The finish on this looks nice and for furniture from a box, it's pretty good quality. Assembly was easy, I think. (I was super pregnant and watched hubby do it while I had my feet up. He didn't seem to have any trouble.) I like the shelves, too. However, it's just a little too low (I'm only 5'6"). Also, the pad it comes with is paper thin. (I bought Summer Infant Changing Pad for about $19 *highly recommend* to use with this.) I'm sure we'll have this for years.

I looked around for a sturdy, sleek changing table at BabiesRUs and BuyBuyBaby but neither of the stores had the style and height I was looking for. I ordered a sleigh style crib from Potter Barn and so when I saw this changing table I thought it would work really well. I’m 5’9 so was hoping for a slightly higher piece and based on the measurements provided – it did appear that it would be higher than the standard ones. The piece arrived yesterday and it took my husband maybe 20 mins to put it together. It is sturdy and the ‘wood’ appears heavy and ‘nice’. The side panels and curved front panels do give it a nice look. The only thing is, the height measurement includes that back ‘headboard’ looking like piece which is misleading b/c the height of the table in reality (where you put the baby) is just the standard height. SO, it did seem a little short for me, but I guess I’ll make it work. This changing table is not high end at all, and it can be seen in the finish of the wood. I noticed few blaches of paint, few cracks but luckily on the back piece that is not visible. For a little over $100 you just can’t expect more… I don’t plan on using it for longer than a year or so and will replace it with a nicer drawer piece. In the meantime, it will do for now. Most importantly is it pretty heavy/sturdy and has lots of room on the two shelves. There is a really thin pad that comes with it, but I’ve replaced it with a nice thick/contour one from Potter Barn which I guess gives that extra inch or height.

The two shelf boards underneath the changing board were not properly cut. All four corners were supposed to be squared in but only 2 actually were. We could not finish assembly. Calling customer service in the morning. Refer to images: Instructions show corners are supposed to be squared in. Second image shows the edge is full. Frustrating.

When we originally purchased this changing table, we thought it was great. Easy to assemble. Nice, classic design. I liked the open shelves so I could put a variety of baskets in it for the baby's things.I'm about 5'10" and my husband is 6'. It turned out that the table was way too low for us. After the first week of taking care of our baby, our backs were killing us. We ended up buying some risers, which made a big difference. I don't blame the table for this. We were first time parents, and I should have paid more attention to the dimensions. I'm not sure any other changing tables are taller, so if you're over 5'7" or so, I'd recommend some risers.Our kid is now 6 months old, and the paint is chipping off of the changing table part. Since I'm worried my kid will somehow ingest some chipped paint, we're going to need to get rid of this table. I wish it would have lasted a little longer in our house. We thought that after he outgrew it, we could store baskets on the top shelf and use it as storage in the nursery. Looks like that won't be happening.

I needed a simple white changing table for my twins nursery and this is pretty much exactly what I was looking for. It was easy to put together and looks really great in their room. However, after only 8 months of use, the white "paint" had rubbed off/chipped in several spots. The quality is clearly mediocre at best. I'll be contacting the manufacturer.

I bought this as a gift for my future grand-baby's shower. My son tried to put it together following the directions, but the pre-drilled holes did NOT line up. Luckily my son was able to re drill the holes to make it fit. Also the back rail was damaged, but my son told me it's fine since that is the side that will face the wall. I was embarrassed with the quality of this gift! My son didn't want to go through the trouble of returning it and ordering a new one.

Arrived 2 days after I ordered it on Amazon -- which was good, since our baby was already here, and I wanted something that would arrive quickly (and selected partially based on that).Tried setting it up the day it arrived -- but the pre-drilled holes weren't lined up and I couldn't attach the pieces. Tried to rectify by contacting Delta directly, but they quoted 5-10 days to replace the specific piece that was wrong. So now I need to disassemble the pieces that actually fit together and re-package this beast to return it to Amazon, and it's unlikely I'll have our changing table here at home and assembled until a full week after I ordered the original. These are the things that discourage me from shopping online.

I bought this changing table for my newborn twins because it was the right height and dimensions of one I wanted.At first it seemed to be the best. The mat it comes with is pretty bad. We added a separate changing pad and wrapped the safety straps around the bars of the table. That way no one was going anywhere.Unfortunately 4 months into use the back board of the table started flaking horribly. It's like the finish just gave out. At 5 month I called delta customer support to get this fixed. They were ok to deal with and sent me out a replacement back board.Well they were supposed to....I got a front board. Called customer support again, explained they sent me the wrong piece. They apologized and reshipped me the correct one. It didn't fit either. It looked right except the sockets were the wrong size.....I am at 7 month now, half of the back board has peeled away, but I keep finding pieces in my sons mouths or their clothes and that's what really gets me. Plan on calling them again to complain.The only positive thing is that they haven't charged me anything to get the replacement parts.

Poorly made. Too wobbly for safety. We returned it immediately.

Saw this in the store, and immediately did not get a good feeling about it, does not look very functional.Against my will, it was purchased.It is not very sturdy, cheap construction, and stinks of chemicals!Not something you want to put in a baby's room, no way.So we put it in the downstairs bathroom, hopefully the smell goes away...

cheap product with paper shelves, not good for a baby.

We have used this table for only five months. About one month in, I noticed a slight chipping of the white paint. By now, MOST of the paint on the sides of the table top is chipping off. It looks like the top was never primed or something, so the paint just peels right off. Given the amount of paint coming off of the table, paint chips have been getting into my baby's mouth and eyes, and sticking to his body. Please be cautioned: this table is a HAZARD. We are getting rid of it this week and buying a different option, which we really, really did NOT want to have to do. No parent should be going through two changing tables in her child's first year, let alone the first five months.

Changing table would be fine, but it was missing a part to be able to screw in one of the rails. Tried calling delta for a replacement part, but they don't have it and said it would have to be returned where it was bought. But it's already put together.

Was not happy with how this was built. It did not go together properly and none of the pieces were labeled.

I purchased to changing table to go with a crib and dresser Espresso Cherry Delta items I purchase from Walmart. The item was a bit darker in color than the other items but close enough. I found at the end of the assembly that one part had a crack. I called Delta directly and was shipped two separate replacement parts. Both are way lighter in color and do not match. (See picture) The table was supposed to be the third item for a Baby Shower gift and I cannot wait another week for a third replacement part. Wish I never ordered it at this point because I wasted my money and don't have the packing materials to ship it back in.

Buyer beware. Unless you are under 5 feet I would not recommend. The table is not tall enough. I'm only 5'3 and I have to bend over significantly to change a diaper!!! Read the August 10 review which says same thing. Unfortunately I bought it just a few days before that review was posted. The product specs measure from the back side which is 37 inches. However, from the ground to the changing pad where your baby will be is only 28 inches!!! That is just 2 feet and 4 inches so you have to bend over considerably to change a diaper!!!!!

Not the size of a normal changing table. Should not have to check dimensions on things like this. Who would want a changing table that you have to break your back to use it? If you are looking for a normal height changing table this is not for you!
