Author's Review
3 years ago, i bought this crib along with the matching changer/dresser. i found it at burlington coat factory. i was able to look at it on display before purchase. it was hard to follow the directions, but even though this was my first child, my husband and i were able to figure it out anyway. there are lots of extra parts to convert the crib, and honestly, i still don't know that i've set the toddler part up, and i doubt i'll ever get to set up the full size bed because i can't figure that out either. my daughter slept in it as a toddler bed for only about 3 months because the mattress level was still a bit high even on the lowest setting. it was easier to get a twin mattress and lay it on the floor until she was old enough to not fall out in the middle of the night. if it had come with a rail of some kind, it would be perfect. another thing i was disappointed about was the drawer underneith does not stay in the track. one of the tracks is defective. so it constantly falls down. but i think this is just a freak insident with my bed, and not all beds will have this problem. it will stay in if the bed is'nt moved at all, but poses a risk for crawling or curious infants. but it is a great idea for cribs to have the extra storage for blankets and linens. this crib is now being used for our son who is 3 months old. it was gorgeous in a strawberry shortcake themed room, and now it's adorable in a sailor themed room. it works for both genders, and it is still as strong as ever! very hard to damage this bed. it withstood a cross-country move, and then 3 other cross-town moves, stayed in a storage unit for about a year (not climitized), and looks as good as new! something this well constructed is truly a steal at the price i got it. i paid $179 at burlington coat factory! best investment ever!
