Good Luck

Check very carefully for bed bugs. They look like an apple seed that walks.

We just went thru a scare here thanks to an idiot neighbor in the same building.

Thankfully we were bug free - but my landlord fumigated the place anyway at his expense.

I would save your money and just go for a single bed and buy a railing for $25 that folds under the mattress.

We did a toddler bed with our first and she outgrew it in less than a year.

I'm with Janelle and would also reccomend passing on the toddler bed.

What we did is get a single mattress with boxspring once they were too big for the crib. It is a little high up, so after taking apart the crib we put the crib mattress on the floor next to the bed at bedtime in case they fell out of the bed. After a few weeks we figured it was safe to stop putting the extra mattress down, and haven't looked back!

But if you are set on buying a toddler bed, I wouldn't worry about bed bugs if you are just buying the frame - let them keep the mattress. I'm not sure if mattresses are included with toddler beds when you buy them. I think you are just supposed to use the crib mattress. I could be wrong though.

You're right. A crib mattress is built to fit into toddler beds so you wouldn't have to buy a mattress (unless you have a baby on the way that needs to use the crib/mattress).

Check out that link - that is the bedrail I'm talking about - and after you use it, you'll be able to sell it for $20 (ish).

I will third the single bed! I had a toddler bed for my Grandson when he would spend the night and it was a pain for me when I wanted to put him to bed and read to him. I would have to sit on the floor. Even to kiss him good night was extremely awkward because they are so low to the floor.

I agree. The railings are great. I used ours for our children, then used if for my dad prior to him going to pallative care and then used it for our granddaughter.
We certainly got our moneys worth out of it.
