Does anyone know what the weight limit is for the bed when these are used to convert a crib into a full size bed?

Well I campout sometimes with my kids at night. I weigh around 200 lbs. and my son is around 55 lbs. All four of us have laid in there together so add another 190 lbs. and my daughter is around 40 lbs. You should be good to go!

Our daughter is a jumper and jumps all the time on the bed so I actually installed four 2X4s in between the rails and plywood on top of it. I had Home Depot cut the 2X4s and plywood to size. Now me and my daughter both can sleep on it if needed.

I don't know the weight limit - but having converted my daughter's Simplicity crib to a full-size with these Delta rails, it's as sturdy as the full-size we have from Ethan Allen. If you're wondering whether adults could use this as a bed, absolutely!

This was almost impossible to find, but I did find that a SIMILAR bed's reviewer said this: "The manufacture does not have weight restriction written on the product, but when I called they confirmed the weight limit was 180 pounds." I will tell you that I have had kids with a combined weight of 330 pounds on the bunk, and it was fine. (I did not know until later that they were all up there!) The slide has had an individual of 280 pounds scoot down it, if that helps. The regular user is a very slight, under 60 pound child. She LOVES it, and we could not get her to sleep in her own room until this purchase. Worth every penny!

Information from the manual that came with the crib states in the section regarding "Converting crib to a toddler bed- "The minimum age of the intended user shall not be less than 15 months and the maximum weight shall not be greater than 50 lbs (22.7kg).

I still use it as a crib, but it is supposed to be able to convert to a twin size bed when you purchase the conversion rails. They cost about 85.00 I believe. This I am sure of.

By zip tieing them to my sons bed frame they are not movable. I've had them up for two years and when secured to the bed frame they are very stong and absolutely hold him in bed. (Agreed adult weight unsecured to the bed frame would not work)

According to the manual that came in the box, the weight limit on each of the beds is 200 pounds. However, I think the bottom bunk can handle quite a bit more. My 13yo daughter & I lie in the bottom bed together and we are collectively 250 pounds, and I don't feel at all like we are pushing the limits of the bed. If you construct it exactly according to the manual, which takes a couple of hours, the result will be a sturdy, safe bunk bed. We are very happy with this bed. Good luck!

No, you would need to get bed rails for the full size bed (and, of course, a mattress and/or box spring). The back of the crib becomes the headboard and the front of the crib would be the footboard. You can get bedrails, etc., at any retailer that sells beds (i.e. Sears, JC Penney, Better Bedding, etc.). If you go to this Amazon link, there are really good pictures of the crib/bed: Dream On Me Ashton Convertible 5 in 1 Crib, Pecan Hope this helps.

Side rails are not necessary to convert the crib into a toddler bed. All you do is remove the side(s) of the crib.

Hi. Sorry that would be hard for me to answer because I put queen size on my sons beds that are fills. So already a bit bigger for a full.

I don't know if they have a weight limit but they are very sturdy. they're also easy to install and look nice.

Not sure about full size...I used them for a twin and they are ok for that size.

When in crib-configuration, the underlying support is metal. When in bed-configuration, the sideboards are wood. It is not indicated which the weight limit applies to, but presumably a heavier child will be in the bed when in bed mode, plus you will likely need to reinforce anyway. To me then the 50lbs would seem to apply to the crib. That said, a 50lb baby would be pretty big in a small crib.

I don't see markings on the bed itself and I probably threw out the documentation that came with it. I did a bit of searching online and came up with 250lbs capacity for the bunks (twin over twin size). The full over full version states 300lbs top, 400lbs bottom. I've been in the bottom bunk quite a few times and at 215lbs, so far no issues. I can feel it sag / flex a little, but more importantly to welds seem to be holding up. My 30lbs son likes to jump around in the top bunk. Structurally, I haven't seen anything to make me worry yet at his weight.

Hello Darleen, I am sure what is the exactly weight limit. I didn't build it up as bunk bed. But I weight ~ 130 lb & older son weigh about ~60lb. I sleep once awhile with him without any problem. The bed seems holding it fine . Hope this help. Have a good day!

I don't have them anymore so don't know but honestly, I don't think these would work well for that. I think IF they even fit, they would slip off. Our crib rails are only 1 1/4" wide and these were too little to even go on.

I believe the weight limit is 300 lbs. I have not had any problems with two beds I have bought. I first bought a twin and then a queen and not had one moment's issue with either of them. I love the beds and sleep very comfortably on them. The only reason I got a queen is because I wanted a little more room. I still have the twin and it worked just fine. I used it for over a year before I got the queen.
