Changing Table Converter Tops

One of the essential pieces of baby furniture is a changing table, but not everyone has room for one in the nursery. A changing table converter top is a space-saving solution, allowing parents to utilize the top of a dresser or other solid surface as a space to change the baby. Converters are also a great way to save money, costing between $15 and $35 instead of the upwards of $100 for a stand-alone changing table.
