How difficult is it to convert from a crib to toddler bed with the railing? How long does it take?

I'm not sure because my daughter is still a baby. I'm hoping its not too difficult.

It was easy to do. It took about 20-30 minutes. We had our toddler help so that added time. Make sure you have the little tool you used to put the bed together.

you will use the crib mattress for the toddler bed and day bed... then later it will convert to a headboard and foot board for a full size bed.

The bed is a standard size because standard sheets fit it. When conversion of a toddler bed is needed, you remove one side of rails. It sits very low to the ground. If you need extra rails, they make rails that go 1/3 to 1/2 way down the mattress. These rails fit under the mattress and may be removed, if needed.

I've got two of these cribs for my week-old twins, so I have both set on the highest setting. If I did the math right, from the lowest setting on the crib, you have 20" to the lowest point of the railing.

You can't! I have been looking for 18 months for the conversion guard rail that goes with this crib. All I have found is that everyone has had the same issue. I guess most people just buy the mesh guard rail for a toddler bed, which is what I will end up doing. Seems like false advertising to me.

Nope to change to a toddler bed, the front comes off so it looks like a daybed but the change table is still there attached. You can't separate them as the change table acts as one side of the crib. It's a very solid crib, we love it!

The changing table and crib share a side, so no it can't be used seperately. As far as the after the conversion, I am not sure but I would guess it does not stay attached

No...when you convert the crib to a toddler bed you are only removing the front bar and front panel. The rest of the crib stays put together, so the mattress still fits

Toddler bed with the 3/4 rail conversion attachment? No. Toddler bed i.e. twin bed with head and foot board? Yes. This mini crib goes from a crib with four adjustable heights, to a twin sized big girl or boy bed. There are no conversion sets for the 3/4 rail length that would go on one of the two longer sides. Only the full sized crib goes from crib to toddler bed to full size big girl or boy bed with head and foot board. It is still a great bed. My large almost 2 year old daughter still fits, barley, but won't be able to use this until she has graduated to a bed.

I purchased this crib for my daughter's new baby that is only a 9 days old. They are moving in the near future and it hasn't even been put together yet..he is sleeping in a bassinet for now. We have not purchased the crib conversion rail yet.

Yes, you would need to invest in some rails if you want to convert it to a toddler bed. The existing sides are too tall.

This bed does not come with the additional material to turn it into a full size bed. There is only a toddler rail included.

It does not take long to convert the crib to a toddler bed, maybe 30 min?It takes even less time to change the mattress height of the crib mattress, but removing the mattress is the easiest way to do so.

Honestly, we have this item attached to our crib that has been converted to a toddler day bed, but it's definitely a safety hazard if your are the overly cautious sort. It isn't installed properly (we had to use zip ties!) and It's almost but not quite as long as the crib itself- which means there's the slightest possibility their head/neck could get stuck. We have it on our 2.5 y/o's convertible crib but it's definitely not a great fit.

It took about 30 minutes. Not complicate,but there are lots of screws and bolts.Good luck!

you take the front side off, put the mattress in the lowest setting, and use this product KidCo Convertible Crib Bed Rail to make a short side to keep the toddler from rolling out. graco does not make or sell a conversion kit to make it a "toddler bed" that most people assume.
