Good but not perfect..., 24 Nov. 2014

OK, so all in all this looks to be a good purchase, but just be warned of a couple of things. Firstly, the bed doesn't have a slatted base, it only has a pulled taught material base on which to put the mattress. Seems like a bit of a weakness to me and even a plastic slatted base would be better in my opinion. Secondly, I'm not sure whether someone had tried to put this bed together, returned it and then we ended up getting it, but it looked like someone had tried to put bits of its together! The bits were in the wrong place and together with the awful instructions, caused a bit of confusion for a while. Having said that, it's pretty simple to work out what needs to go where. Just be warned, some of the 'screws into bolts' are different sizes. Keep the shorter ones for nearer the end of the bed and the longer ones go through the plastic protective sides. It took way longer to put together than it should and I'm a fairly experienced DIYer, so it was rather frustrating. I also wish the...

Good toddler bed, 24 April 2015

We have this bed for our two year old daughter and she very much likes it.

Upon arrival, you need to put it all together and construct the bed. Between my husband and myself this wasn't too difficult although as with all flat-pack type furniture items did cause a mixture of hilarity and frustration! However it isn't difficult and the bed was up pretty quickly.

The height of the bed is perfect for a toddler. It isn't so high that if they fall out they will hurt themself. My little girl did fall out a couple of time when she moved into this bed and it didn't hurt her at all.

At the head end of the bed there are rails designed to stop the child falling out. In our case they make no difference as my daughter will...

Disappointing, 22 May 2015

Product was as expected but I was disappointed that Amazon had sent out what seemed to be a previous return. The box had been sellotaped up again, There were small holes in the mattress sheet, one pole was spilt and out of shape that I couldn't put the frame together, instruction stickers had been removed then stuck on again, the bubble wrap it all came in was old, flat and dirty. I returned this item and purchased it from elsewhere at a slightly higher price which I know the product is brand new and the safety sides are actually bigger.
