So, I bought a USED crib at a garage sale. The label on the side of the crib says "Bambolina, made in Italy." My problem......I can't find jack about it....anywhere. I 'googled' it and the closest thing I found was the Bambolina Collection by Veronica. There is a website but I couldn't tell if it was where my crib came from since there are just pics and no prices or information on distributors.

The point....CAN ANYONE HELP ME??????

I did just find a post from this site from 2002 that infers that Bambolina is Bonavita?????

Thanks in advance for your help

What info are you looking for exactly? Did you try asking the sellers? They might be a good place to start.

I guess I should have put the sellers are on an extended vacation at this time....and I have not been able to start by contacting them

What are you trying to determine? We bought DS1's crib at a baby store but it was a generic company (and cheap too). I think it also claimed to have been made in Italy and was called something boring like Luna. No amount of googling would have given any more info on that crib - I just had to trust the baby store and trust my gut. That crib was awesome! It looked brand new after 2 kids each slept 3 years in it. It was totally rock solid and I gave it away to a teenage mom and I know she appreciated such a nice crib too!

ETA: I just googled Bambolina Italy and also came up with the Veronica collection http://www.bambolinacollection.it/lettini_eng.html It seems like that is the best bet. What do you need to find out though? Recalls? Age of crib? Assembly? I googled Lettina Bambolina and got a LOT of stores selling the crib in Europe. You can use Google to translate the page, but they seem to be a common brand: http://www.newbabyland.com/la-cameretta_mobilio_lettino-bambolina-lorenzo-ciliegio_product-1-18-5734.aspx?utm_campaign=KELKOOIT&utm_content=feed-Lettini&utm_source=datafeed-&utm_medium=comparatore-prezzi&id_link=4b840aa7136f3790276acd0042b67847

I'd be hesitant to use it until you get the manual just to verify you have all the tiny pieces of hardware and such. I'm sorry that I can't help you find the vendor. I wonder if there is a way to contact the Fields on this? I think they check that sort of email. I'll see if I can scrounge up contact info.

Thanks for the work PIGLET I did that too....and even emailed them but was told they do not or have not sold any cribs in the United States so my crib can't be theirs.

I am looking for how old the crib is, recalls....etc

Thanks for the help. ;)
