My son is 3 and in the 4th percentile. How long do you think he'll be able to use this bed?

The bed takes a toddler mattress. My grandson is 4 and still sleeps comfortably in it

Interesting coincidence... my grandson, who this was purchased for, is a little guy too. Jeremiah turned 3 this past June and this bed was his birthday present. He is only in the 3rd percentile and we expect him to be able to use this bed, comfortably, for at least 2 more years, if not 3. My best friend's little girl sleeps in it on occassion and she will be 5 in December. She's a tiny one too & she has plenty of room. I hope this helps!

I'm not sure what the 4th percentile means (my apologies)but if it means he is small for his age, he'll be using this bed for several years unless he grows out of the "pirate" phase. My son often lays with my grandson in this bed. Hope this helps.

My grandson was three in August. He is in the 96th percentile for height (Dad is tall!). We feel that he has another year until he grows out of the bed even though it takes a crib mattress.

My granddaughter will be 4 in September and weighs about 36 pounds. She is still using the Shrunk bed and I expect will be able to do so for several more years before she would be too tall for it. The specs that came with mine indicate that it is good up to 150 pounds.

Hi. My son is 5'9, 180lb and hes only 14 (15 in Nov). Not fat just growing like a root the last year. I researched for several months and found this bed. He can sit up in the bed without popping his head on the top bunk. This is not a toddler bed or kiddie bed (which I did not want). My son has several more years to sprout. When he sleeps like all humans he pulls his legs up slightly and snuggles under his blanket and there's nothing but room at the end of the bed. This is the best purchase so far for my boys. I put it together by myself stress free,the bed doesnt even move when used. The only thing that irked me is that if you do purchase this bed there are like 60 little gray squares you pop in to secured the bars. After a nearly broken my thumbs and 30 minutes later I gave up, there not needed. The bars "snap" in and the mattress is snug and secures everything in place. No worries whatsoever about this bed! Good luck.. Oh Yeah, top bunk is just as sturdy as the bottom.. I never thought I would by a metal bed. I sometimes sleep on the top bunk with my youngest during storms just because. Hes 70lbs Im 140lbs. We also play card games up there. So you do the math about the top bunk holding a full sized person. Great product!

It's been so long since we put it together, I can't recall the specifics. However, in my opinion this bed is safe. When we got it I had a 2.5 year old, who was able to easily go up and down the stairs. My biggest concern with any bunk bed is the potential to roll off. So, we bought a thin mattress for the top bunk to make sure that the guard rail was tall enough. We've never had a problem!

I still have my 2 year old in it at the tightest setting. He is 70th percentile in weight. My 4 year old can still fit too. I tested him out to make sure the chair would work long term

It perfect for an 18 month through almost five year old-depending on how big you child is. My daughter started in hers at 2 and will be 3 soon and is still very comfy in it! I used the mattress from her crib. That's the only size that fits. Only bummer to it is it won't hold adult weight and we constantly have to catch ourselves from sitting on the edge of it :)

I think it would really depend on how well he is sitting up and holding himself up my other daughter is almost 5 months and 17lbs and I wouldn't put her in one we plan on getting her a different type of Recaro seat she would not be very comfortable in it at all for how much they still sleep at this age.

I would say 4, maybe 3. My son was 5 when I bought it. It isn't nearly as tall as other bunk beds though. It's about chest height for me. The mattress sits down in the top of it so your child would definitely not roll out of it. No box spring needed.

It depends on him.... a good rule of thumb is to measure him from nose to the base of his tail. If it's less than the length of the bed, he has room to lay flat. If he is longer you may want to buy him a twin size mattress and call it a day.

Our baby is 15lbs and approximately 25 inch tall at 4.5 month and there is still room in the bassinet. I would say that we would probably able to use it until our boy is 6 months old. I am not sure about the weight restrictions but the bassinet feels very well-built and sturdy. It appears that the length capacity will be exceeded before weight capacity.

My son started using it under a year and he will be 2 next month and will still use it until he cant fit in it anymore. :-)

My baby boy is 3 1/2 months old & still sleeping in his LulyBoo Baby Lounge. He's a large boy, too, at almost 16 pounds! I'm assuming I will get another month or two of use, but due to his size, probably not much more than that.

Based on the product information, it says, "Manufacturer recommended age: 16 months - 5 years".Based on the review notes, if a standard crib mattress can fit perfectly in this bed, then the size of the sleeping area is the crib mattress size. Since your son is only 18 months old, he can use it at least for another 3 years (assuming he is in the normal or 50 percentile for his height).

I bought this last year for my 4 month old for when we went to the beach on vacation. I don't see why you couldn't use it for any age that physically fits into the bed.

This can grow with her to some extent. My son is very average in length but still had plenty of room when we stopped swaddling at 3.5 months. So depending on how long you want to swaddle, she'll probably have enough room!

My son is 4, get got it at 3 and looks like he can continue to grown into it for at least a year or two.

Perfect age...my son is also 4 1/2 and he can ride it now with room to grow
