Cannon 4-in-1 Convertible Crib review

This is a document-based assessment of the Delta Children Cannon 4-in-1 Convertible Crib, not a hands-on review. The currently captured Cribs-collection configuration is Chestnut W115630-836. Delta also has a separate official detail record for Natural Sandstone W115630-1544; that record preserves a second real configuration, but its product-data type was marked “Discontinued” when checked. The records use the same W115630 style and link the same instructions. I found no documented functional difference between those finishes, so this is one model-family assessment with both SKUs retained—not a claim that both are currently offered by every retailer.

Four arrangements, not four simultaneous uses

Delta describes a full-size crib that can be reconfigured as a toddler bed, daybed or sofa. Those are successive arrangements of one frame, not extra sleeping surfaces available at the same time. The maker’s page does not document a bassinet, mini-crib, midi-crib or adult full-size-bed arrangement for this Cannon. In particular, do not assume that the “4-in-1” count means a twin or adult-bed conversion: the fourth maker-named setup is the sofa.

The frame’s main visual feature is a pair of arched ends with rounded spindles; Delta also describes hidden side-panel hardware. Aesthetic preference is personal, but these details make the Cannon a more shaped, less plain-sided choice than a simple straight-rail crib. Its appeal depends on liking that outline and accepting the accompanying full-size footprint rather than on a feature that changes how it matches a mattress.

Measure both dimensions, then add working room

Delta labels the assembled Cannon at 31 inches wide by 50 inches high by 55.25 inches deep and lists a 49.4-pound product weight. The long dimension matters as much as the narrower listed width: this is not a 31-inch-square frame. Use the maker’s label convention consistently when answering the finder’s width ceiling, then measure the nursery’s actual floor area, doorway route, nearby furniture and space for assembly or later reconfiguration separately. The product dimension is not a clearance recommendation.

Within the finder’s half-inch width steps, the 31-inch stated width is first admitted at a 31-inch limit; a 30.5-inch ceiling is too small on the maker-listed width. The Cannon’s 55.25-inch long dimension still has to fit your room even when the finder returns it. If those two axes are awkward in the room, compare exact drawings rather than treating a “full-size” label as a room plan.

Mattress fit is a separate purchase check

Delta says the standard-size crib mattress is sold separately. The U.S. instructions linked from the product page specify a full-size mattress at least 27 1/4 by 51 5/8 inches and no thicker than 6 inches. Those are the manual’s minimum and maximum fit limits, not a bundled-mattress claim or a complete mattress recommendation. Confirm the exact frame instructions and a snug, flat fit; do not infer the required mattress from a staged photograph.

The same instructions describe three mattress-support positions. They direct the caregiver to lower the support when a child can pull to standing and say that, at the highest setting, the top of the front side must remain at least three inches above the mattress surface. The manual says to stop using the crib when the child begins to climb out or reaches 35 inches, whichever happens first. Use the labels and full warnings supplied with the actual crib; a web review is not a substitute.

Check both conversion pieces and the revision sheet

The package details deserve more attention than the four-stage name. Delta’s product text says the daybed/sofa rail is included and names toddler guardrail W100725 as sold separately. The linked booklet identifies its conversion rail as Part C, style 46005, and says that rail is required for toddler-bed, daybed and sofa arrangements. It separately says the crib uses style W100725 for the toddler guardrail. I treat these as distinct parts because the page and manual give them separate names and functions; before buying or assembling a used or open-box unit, confirm every piece against the frame label and instructions instead of assuming the carton contains both.

There is also a manual-version bridge to check. Delta’s Cannon page links a 40-page 46234-W115630 booklet. Its cover identifies R1, dated March 17, 2025, while a later inserted sheet in that same file identifies R0, dated November 25, 2024. The cover itself tells the reader to match the information to the label on the crib end. Ask for a legible frame label and the supplied booklet on an existing-unit purchase; do not use a neighboring W115630 finish’s instructions as proof for a different unit without that match.

The same source set gives a 15-month minimum for toddler-bed use and a 50-pound maximum. Read all warnings and age/stage limits in the exact booklet. The accessory listing offers multiple W100725 finishes, including Chestnut and Natural Sandstone, but a matching color code alone is not a substitute for checking the exact crib version, rail model and manual.

What the evidence does—and does not—say

Delta describes the Cannon as crafted from solid wood and made with woods including New Zealand pine and TSCA-compliant engineered wood; the page does not identify which material belongs to every component. Delta also calls the product Baby Safety Alliance Verified. Those are manufacturer statements, not independent material testing, comparative safety scoring or a guarantee about a particular used crib. A narrow W115630 query of SaferProducts.gov returned an empty result; that limited keyword query is not an individual-unit, serial-number, date, repair or general safety clearance.

Assembly is adult-required in the manual, and the mattress-support step notes that it may take two people. The manual advises against a power screwdriver. This is practical context for a home setup, not evidence that assembly is easy for every household or that the hardware has been inspected. Check for missing, loose or damaged parts before use and follow the instructions supplied for the unit.

Who should keep the Cannon on the shortlist?

The Cannon is a reasonable research candidate for someone seeking a full-size crib first and wanting the manufacturer-documented toddler-bed, daybed and sofa path on one reconfigurable frame. Its 31-by-55.25-inch listed footprint, separate mattress, separate W100725 toddler guardrail and exact 46005 conversion-rail question are meaningful planning constraints. It is a poor match for a required rolling crib, an included-mattress purchase, a compact mini-crib footprint, a bassinet start or a later adult-bed conversion. Those are not minor preferences: they are functions the reviewed Cannon sources do not establish.

For a current exact-model search, start from Chestnut W115630-836; the Natural Sandstone W115630-1544 record is retained for identification, not represented as a current stock offer. Check SKU, carton contents, label, revision, mattress limits and seller terms before treating any offer as the same configuration.
