When the mattress is in the highest setting (for a newborn) how many inches is it from the top? I don't want to bend down far to get the baby

With the mattress in it at the highest setting there is 4-5 inches depending the mattress thickness that you buy

I believe it is around 14 inches? I am 5 foot 1 and I was able to easily set the baby down or pick him up. I love these cribs!

Very little bending. It has 4 height adjustments and the top setting was too high for my comfort for a newborn. But would be good for reaching from your bed to get baby out. I still love this crib!

It is about a foot from the ground to the top of the seat. I don't find it hard to get up and down, but I am only 5' 3"! I can see it being slightly difficult for someone taller who is holding a baby.

I would not recommend it for a newborn. I feel it is way too soft for that. The company does not recommend using it w the graco...we did use it with the graco but not till my daughter was around 8 months. There is a one inch gap between the mattress and the sides of the PNP. If you decide to order you can see how soft it is and decide (it's not technically soft but the casing is not tight enough around the core so it creates some billowing). The company has great customer service and we have many other products from them.

We didn't even start on the highest level. We don't use the infant insert and we dropped down right away because the thigh space was ridiculously small and the tray at her navel. If she sits unsupported I would try either dropping down a level or removing the infant insert. Hope this helps!

the bottom of the bed is about 10 inches off the floor. Depending on the width of the mattress, the top of the mattress is about 16-18 inches off of the bed.

The base (where the mattress rests) from the floor is only about 18 inches. The floor to the top of the frame may be 44"

It will be tall, our mattress was 6 inches thick and we almost had to jump up onto the bed. We are both 5'6/5'7. It was actually an uncomfortable height and we did not have a box springs.

As a newborn it should be reclined all the way. (mostly because of neck support). We never went any higher.

11.25 inches to bottom of mattress from ground. 16 inches from ground to top of mattress. It's possible you can adjust to make it higher, we have not done this.

Using the mattress frame from our crib there's only about an inch difference from the mattress to the top of the side. My son hasn't rolled out yet and he's been in this bed since December, but sometimes I'll find him with his feet or arm dangling out

That's what my husband and I have used this for all along. The mattress is the right kind for a newborn - you don't want something too cushy. I do have to agree with a previous commenter who said that you would need a lot of space next to your bed - you do need a fair amount. But so easy to set up!

The mattress is 2" and to be honest, this is a great crib for your newborn. The mattress is comfortable for newborn, but may start to get a little uncomfortable the 2 and 3rd month.

That never occurred to me before, but now that you mention it, the twin mattress we got at Ikea doesn't stretch all the way. It's probably about 5 inches short, but since my son uses the top bunk for stuffed animal storage mostly, it hasn't caused a problem.

The highest edge is about 2-2 1/2 feet. You'll have to lean to get your child out of it if it was next to your bed because it is kind of deep.

That's a tough question. If you are wondering if you can reach to the bottom level to pick up and lay your baby down, I would say it is a 'lower' crib. I have another crib from pottery barn that is definitely taller and harder to pick up and lay down my daughter. I chose this crib for my twins because it is more compact and smaller (as cribs go). I am 5'3" and can easily reach to the bottom level of the crib. Does that help?

You just have to measure from the top of the box spring to the top of your mattress, then subtract that from the height of the rail to see how much will extend above your mattress. It works with ours, extending about seven inches above the pillow-top. A baby could not roll off, but could climb over, of course.

I have a pillow top bed too, its about a 3" inch difference. However the bed is a little deep. So you will need to bend down to get baby. My son will be 4 months, I love this sleeper! I used it since day 1! He loves sleeping in it for naps & sleeps in it overnight. It is worth the $30!
