just what i was looking for.
this is just what i was looking for! it was a perfect fit for our toddler's convertible crib. we just transitioned her from her crib to her toddler day bed (front rail comes off) and it fits great. it was easy to install. only one piece to assemble. it looks nice, fits great and made our daughter very happy. there is justn enough room for her to get in and out of bed very safely and keep her safely in her bed as well. this is a better alternative than the super expensive wooden convertible crib rails. this item is perfect for convertible cribs and affordable.
Works Great
My son sleeps on the edge of crib so I knew I would need a rail once I converted the crib into a toddler bed. This rail is sturdy and very easy to assemble!! It took me less then 5 minutes to assemble and install, although the directions are not great it is pretty self explanatory. Good product for what it is, I originally bought the convertible crib thinking I would save some money not buying a toddler bed and day bed once he grew out of it so I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg for a rail that would only be used for a year or two. This was a great purchase for me.
Perfect, but make sure you raise the mattress up 1 level
Our son is 2 1/2 and it was time to convert his crib into a toddler bed. However, the crib manufacturer, Baby Cache is temporarily not selling the toddler bed rails for our crib. Babies r us sold a wooden one, but it was $80 - YIKES!!! The wood didn't even match our crib either!!! I came to Amazon and found this. When we received the toddler bed rail, it was very easy to set up. My son can now get in an out of his "big boy bed" all by himself, and we don't have to worry about him falling out.

One thing is important - you must raise the bed up 1 notch or this will not work! As long as you raise the bed up 1 level, it works perfect. I read a previous comment about that and was thankful I did!
Perfect for any convertible crib!
I bought this not sure if it would work on MY daughters convertible crib. It fit perfectly and she loves it! Easy to install!
love it!
I love this rail. We couldn't find any other rail that would fit on our converted toddler bed, but this fits perfectly. It's very easy to set up and safe.

Reviews

Very Sturdy and Strong
This bed was purchased for our soon-to-be 3 year old boy who is rough as they come! Though not allowed to jump, I saw him jumping on and off and the bed seems to hold up great. This car bed is durable and strong. I was also surprised how BIG it was! One thing, it says you can put the crip mattress inside it or the twin. We have the crib mattress and it is very small small compared to the bed. There is a lot of plastic around the side which would normaly be covered up with a twin size mattress. But, I had extra blankets to put around his crib size mattress and now he doesn't lay on any plastic. When we get the TWIN size mattress we will be all set. I see this bed lasting for years to come. We are happy we purchased it! Also the delivery people were great with it also.
HORRIBLE!!!
So after researching over a month for the right car bed for my son, I decided to trust the reviews here and get Step 2 convertable car bed. The bed came in huge box without anything to protect the (cheap) plastic parts. Needless to say, the pieces had scratches all over them. Next, I see that the bag of the decals is ripped open and the all the stickers are wrinkled!!! I mean, are you kidding me? you ship me a bed that obviously someone probably opened and returned to the warehouse?!!! I can't believe that for this price I just payed, this is what I got. We were so looking forward to have my son sleep on it tonight and now I have to wait till Monday to call them up. Oh, and not to mention that the company does not deliver it all the way to your door, so if you are like me, and lives in an apartment building, they only bring it to the front of the building and you need to figure out how to carry it in. I am beyond pissed at the condition of the bed and will contact them first thing on Monday to demand an explanation. I will give an update soon...
Good bed... our son LOVES it
We got a great deal on this at that major toy chain after Christmas (gift cards, coupons, sale, etc)... We finally set it up recently as our 2 year old son was getting out of his crib at will anyway.

Bed assembled very quickly and easily, and he loves it... he actually asks to go lay down in his "race car bed"!

I think it is overpriced for what is basically 5 pieces of molded plastic and some fiberboard. What made it worthwhile for us (besides the deal we got), was that it is convertible from a toddler bed to a twin bed.
Fun, sturdy, colorful bed
I just wanted to write a quick review. This bed is pretty nice. It is the typical step2 product that we all know and love. The plastic is very durable. It is vibrant and fun. The thing I wanted to note is that I feel like it looks so much better in person than it does in the pictures. I was sort of apprehensive about getting this bed for my son for the twin version and now that we have it in his room, I'm glad we have it. I was thinking of getting the Little Tikes blue race car bed, but I am now very glad I got this one.
shipping to a 2nd floor apt?
If you live on the 2nd floor of an apartment building, be prepared to have some extra help getting this bed up the stairs. The shipper refuses to deliver to a 2nd floor apartment, yet you will not find this out until after you purchase the bed and the shipper calls to schedule your delivery. In my opinion this is an important fact that should be stated in the description of this product. I am a single mother, I don't exactly have extra help standing around and I was completely unaware of the fact that there were delivery restrictions. I wondered how I was going to get this bed upstairs, in the middle of the day, while all of my friends are at work leaving me with no one to call. I just opened the box and carried it up piece by piece. I really don't see why the shipper can't help just take a few steps further with the bed, it's not terribly heavy. The box is bulky, but it would have been extremely easy for 2 people to get this bed up a single flight of stairs. Heck, he could have even helped me carry it up and it would have been easy, and I'm not exactly a large person. That's how easy it could have been, but you won't find out until it's too late. Overall, it's a great bed and my 2 yr old son absolutely loves it. Very sturdy, nice and colorful, cool decals, etc. so you can customize to your liking. Perfect size for a twin mattress, perfect size bed for a toddler to grow into and learn to sleep in a big boy bed.

Reviews

crib is good, amazon distribution center not so good.
The crib came and moderately easy to install. The most inconvenient part of the installation was that this crib must have been returned by another customer who didn't know what he/she was doing because one of the screws was stripped. I couldn't easily return the product since it was 90% finished by the time we found the stripped screw. Amazon needs to do a better job with checking its inventory and not sending used crap to ppl.
So far OK, but not perfect, high safety rating
We selected this crib due to its high safety rating with Consumer Reports, a middle of the road price, and a look we liked. We got the cherry finish. It was on sale here, and we got free shipping. The next level of crib with excellent safety ratings was more like $400, and this is not an item we would get used, although I think recycled and used baby-gear is great when that's not a safety issue.

It was not the easiest to assemble, and once assembled I noticed a large dent, a good 3"x2" in the wood on the main part of the crib, that is fully visible. I had no idea whether that dent was actually there from the shipping or if it got dented during assembly. Either way, much as earlier reviewers wrote, dents much too easily. I did see that one reviewer suggested adding your own additional coats of clear varnish to harden it, but given I was very pregnant and we were very busy, this did not strike me as very practical, but it may work great. I would be willing to pay an extra $20 to have them apply enough varnish to help prevent dents. I knew this was an issue and felt affordable safety outweighed aesthetic concerns, so I'm not really angry about it.

So far our baby is only 7 weeks and still sleeps in a portable travel crib in our bedroom. He lies in the crib if we're in the nursery and have to put him down to get something. Our standard Colgate mattress fits great and, other than the dent, it looks great. He'll be moved into crib at 3 months or so. Once baby is able to bang his toys or fists against it, I'm sure it will have more dents and nicks. And I'm sure he won't care a bit, so I won't lose sleep over it.

My other complaint is the toddler bed converter set is ridiculously overpriced, because they know they've got you. We got that as well, and obviously have no idea how that will work out yet.
Great crib
I purchased this crib after a lot of research. I found that it was on the top 10 cribs to buy and it has been great. My husband and brother in law put it together in about 25 minutes (they barely looked at the instructions)and the bedding that I had purchased looked great with the honey oak color. It came with the daybed conversion kit. No complaints here!
Beautiful Crib
Though our baby hasn't arrived yet, we set up our crib as soon as it arrived and it is beautiful! It is also very sturdy. My husband assembled it in less than an hour and hardly needed my help. All of the pieces were in good condition--no scratches. We are excited to put it to use in just 2 months!
great crib
I bought this crib in cherry for 245$, after reading every review about this and many other cribs and safety reports.
My babygril is now 4 months old. she sleeps well in it. She slept in it sinds day one.
It's beautiful, very sturdy, came in perfect state..but now it has a few scrates(mostely form a belt).
It's easy to setup if you just follow the instructions, my boyfriend did it on his own in about 1 hour, I sat and watched...was 37 weeks pregnant. the cherry collor is just as you see it in the picture.
I still have it on the highest mattress level, because my girl cannot situp on her own yet... but sometimes I wished it had a dropside because it gets harder lifting her out of her crib all the time, she's 7 kg now.. but then a dropside is dangerous. it weigh alot, but still is very easy to move arround when you need to clean.
so if you like the looks... buy it..it's worth it. good furniture.

More than 2M cribs recalled amid safety concerns

Posted by admin Jun 24, 2010COMMENTS

The Consumer Product Safety Commission says most of the cribs are drop-sides, which have a side rail that moves up and down so parents can lift children from them more easily. That movable side can malfunction or detach from the crib and create a dangerous gap where babies’ heads can become trapped.

The companies involved in the recall are Evenflo, Delta Enterprises Corp., Child Craft, Jardine Enterprises, LaJobi, Million Dollar Baby and Simmons Juvenile Products Inc.

There are reports of at least 16 infants becoming trapped in the cribs.

About 50,000 Manufacturer: Simmons Juvenile Products, of New London, Wis. Hazard: The cribs’ drop sides can malfunction, detach or otherwise fail, causing part of the drop side to fall out of position, creating

What People ask about Convertible Crib Bed

which is the convertible crib for baby with a price range of 100 to 250?Can you please suggest a best mattress?


binku aksed: Hi, I am looking for the best affordable crib ( convertible ) and mattress to buy at store. Also can you please let me know where i can buy affordable bedding set. Thank you.

answered: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Lauren-4-in-1- Convertible-Crib-Sweet-Dreams-Mattress-B undle-Espresso/14245026

This is what we bought. The mattress is very firm, which is ideal for infants in case they roll over. You don't want a mattress where they sink down and can't breathe!

http://babyproducts.about.com/od/sleepbe dding/ht/HTcribmattress.htm

I suggest going to Target for bedding sets. You can buy things separately. Which is good because bumpers are very unsafe!

http://babyproducts.about.com/od/recalls andsafety/a/bumpersafety.htm

i got th graco lauren crib in walnut (they have them at walmart) for $120 on sale, its usually around $170 taxes and all. its a beautiful expensive looking, great quality crib for a low price! and its convertable...here is a picture of it. (wow and looking at that picture made me realize how crooked her letters are, lol)

idk about the mattress, ours was given to us. but look at walmart, target, or babys r us. i do a lot of online shopping and its really easy to compare prices and find the best deals!!

and babysupermall.com has a lot of good bedding...again, i googled for weeks before i found a bedding set i liked in the price range we set!

Are "drop cribs" and convertible cribs (cribs that convert to toddler beds) the same?


Jen L aksed: My husband and I are having our first child. We've selected a crib on our registry which is a converter crib (converts to a toddler bed). It is also adjustable. I wanted to know if anyone knows if this type of crib is the same as the "drop cribs" which have recently been recalled by manufacturers because of infant deaths. I want to make sure that we don't order the convertible crib if it's the same thing!

Carolyn D answered: A drop-crib is a crib that has one side which drops or lowers down to make it easier to reach the child in the crib. This is good for people who are on the shorter side, those who expect to be pregnant again while they still have a child in a crib (trust me, reaching a toddler in a crib while pregnant is a feat!), or those who have trouble reaching/lifting.

A convertible crib, on the other hand, is one that can be converted into something other than a crib. Often a convertible crib can be made into a daybed with the same crib mattress and then a full-size bed with the addition of a full-size mattress and bedrails (essentially the crib becomes the head and footboard.)

I don't think that drop-side cribs are convertible, but there may be models out there that are both.

The recent recall did not involve all drop-side cribs, just certain ones. And I believe they were made by a company that no longer exists, if I remember right, so you wouldn't be able to register for a crib from that comany anyhow. There have been recalls on convertible cribs as well, for a number of different reasons. Unfortunately it seems that cribs are recalled quite often. But any that are recalled should be immediately removed from stores, so you wouldn't be able to register for one that's been recalled.
