Anyone else planning to use a mini crib?

Claire
My husband and I live in a 1-br apartment and are converting our little walk-in closet into a tiny nursery. We are planning on getting a bloom alma mini crib, which is about 37" long and 19" wide. For comparison, a standard crib is about 53" long and 42" wide. The mini crib also has optional locking wheels, so it can be moved into our room and used as a bassinet as well. 
I've read many reviews that say mini cribs are suitable for up to the first 18 months (or longer depending on how big your child is), and that this is actually the standard crib size in the rest of the world, so I'm not too worried about it, but just wondering if anyone else is going this route?
