Stokke 164001 Review by curiousmetoo "curiousmetoo" (Tampa, FL USA)

We just purchased the Stokke Care 2010 Walnut changing table from amazon's sister site diapers. Note that there are 2 versions of the Stokke Care - the new 2010 model and the old one. This fact is NOT mentioned anywhere on stokke or on the other sites. The newer 2010 model has the baskets for storage and does NOT come with wheels. The older model has lockable wheels, however does not come with the baskets. I think the older model was discontinued due to the risks involved with wheels.
Here are our observations:
The changing table itself is very sturdy and heavy! You will most likely need 2 people to assemble - the second person mainly to hold the shelves or the frame/sides. The assembly itself could not be easier - just 8 or so steps in a pictorial manual on 1 page. No written instructions needed. A little bit of common sense is helpful as the instructions are not very detailed.
It has a pretty good height overall and the changing shelf can be adjusted to two different heights. The topmost setting is almost too high for most people (unless you are over 6 feet tall). Everything is solid wood - no veneers on this one!
The curved sides and the bars have no sharp edges at all and match the Stokke crib. The screw sets are walnut brown in color (only 1 choice), so if you choose a lighter color such as cherry, natural or white, the screws will stand out!
I liked the fact that there were no harsh chemicals used for the varnish or paint and everything is non-toxic. It is true hardwood not like most tables that have a veneer or are MDF/particleboard.
pros:
- comes with a custom pad (what Stokke calls a mattress, however it is not as thick as a mattress, more like a changing pad)
- like the fact that it has no wheels so no risk of having the table run away if you don't happen to lock it before lifting the baby when changing. This must be the reason why they don't even offer the option of wheels. You will definitely need 2 people to move the table after assembly.
- has plastic protectors on the bottom for wood floors
- large storage baskets
- can change the baby while facing you (unique stokke feature)
- has restraint belts
- has towel bars and good side storage to store or hang stuff
- can convert easily to a student deks - perfect for future use and contemporary style

cons
- there aren't any screw holes for the restraints - have to use a philips or other screwdriver to drill the screw in if you want to use the restraint system. Stokke - please pre-drill holes for this the next time on the stokke changing shelf.
- had a small dent on the 2 shelves when I received it - had to call Stokke to get them replaced. It took 7 photograps for them to recognize this and send the replacement out via ground shipment. Diapers on the other hand shipped the changing table to us 2-day fedex air and was instant.
- 4 screws and washers were missing! Need these to attach the towel bars. Have called them again to send it via snail mail. Stokke - please have a quality analyst check these things - it is unacceptable to pay this amount and have missing screws! [Updated - I received the wrong replacement screws and only 3 of them! I called again and they are sending me a complete screw bag. Please check the screws and qty before you start the assembly to avoid disappointment]
- the changing pad (or mattress) does NOT come with a cover - need to get a separate Stokke terry cover, costs extra! Stokke should include this with the pad
- the wood does have a lot of grains on them, the pictures on the web do NOT show this, not sure if this is only with the walnut color or if the others also have the same pattern. I think maple wood would be a better choice, but then it would increase the cost.

overall, a very good buy inspite of the minor issues with the damage.
