Can you take off one of the sides and have it be a toddler bed? I know it doesn't list it as such, but I wondered if it would work or not.

Yes you can, it has instruction with the crib on how to do that as well as make it into a full sized bed. I noticed another person said no it can't but mine came with instructions to do so. I haven't yet because my son isn't ready but I will be soon. Its a great crib, we really love it.

Not really with the way its designed. It would become very unstable without all four sides unless you built something to support that side. Otherwise it would just "open up" and the mattress would fall. Just goes straight to full size bed and you have to buy the rails for that. I'm not even sure how I will like the look of it when its just a head board or foot board, but we will see. Good for just a crib though so far.

I ordered this crib for my newest grandchild. The description stated that it could be converted to a full size bed, but did not mention anything about a toddler bed. I wish I could have helped more.

No. This bed only functions as a crib with all four sides. Perhaps you could find a way to alter it on your own.

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.

To my knowledge, no. A toddler bed still uses the mattress from the original crib and the sides come off of the crib and turns into his first little bed. I believe a twin mattress is larger... But you can always google it to be sure :)

I'm pretty sure you can't. There are slightly other configurations, for instance with a twin bed under. It's a great bed, very durable, my kids love it. The full sized bed is on casters and can stand alone, so you don't have to use it if you don't want it.

No, you can not , we tried everything trying to come up with a way to put it on the other side. Due to the design of the crib, with the front and back being different, there is no way! We used it the way it was supposed to be attached and it does work great!

No the bed can only be assembled as the pictures shows. The parts were not interchangeable to the right side. Saying that it is still a solid well built bed that my two boys enjoy having.

I have it next to my bed but the sides won't come off. You will most likely have to stand up to get your baby. You might want to review safety guidelines before getting a craddle/crib that has the side coming off feature as it is not recommended.

You can use it with a convertable crib that you have changed to the toddler bed mode, but not as it is still in crib mode. The rail has hinges that stick out on the side of the mattress so the walls of the crib would get in the way of those.

No. That has proven to be unsafe and newer cribs are no longer using that design. I have 5 kiddos and I purchased this crib for baby #5. The front side is lower than an older style crib's front panel when it is up, if that makes sense. I have used this from newborn through toddler stages and it is super. You won't be disappointed! It's a bargain for the price...it is beautiful.

You should look for description. If I understand correctly it has the part to convert the crib to toddler bed, but you have to order one more part to convert to full size (sold separately). I've bought the bed about 7 months ago and that part was available at Amazon also then.

I returned this four piece bed set, because it wasn't the design my daughter wanted for her daughter's toddler bed. However, it does fit a toddler bed (which is the size of a crib bed), not a twin bed at all. It's lovely and I wish my daughter had kept it.

It would depend on the type of toddler bed (if you had somewhere to mount it to) and if he/she would leave it alone.

Never tried it, but based on the measurements, I wouldn't consider it. I got 3 growing toddlers and they barely have space to sit with a single mattress. But if you find one that is slim enough it could work.

The crib can be converted into a toddler bed with an additional piece that is provided in the box (we have constructed the crib and just stored this additional piece for now). Additional part(s) need to be purchased if you want to convert into full sized bed later on, I'm not sure what they are exactly or how much they cost, but if I recall correctly the box indicates part numbers to order and a number to call (I'm at work at the mo so can't be certain). We aren't bothering with this for now. Hope this helps a little!

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.Kidco Convertible Crib Bed Rail

Where does it say that it can only hold 50lbs? If that's the case, I am in trouble. Mine is already converted to the toddler bed and it is amazing, my little man loves it. I will caution you though, the paint is not the highest quality and, although it looks great, it is very easy for young ones to gnaw it off.However, it is easily remedied by adding proper crib padding along the rails. For my little one, I put a little lemon juice where he kept chewing and he never did it again!:)

It could, but mostly for use as a guest bed, not a bed to be used every night by an adult. It's perfect however for our toddler!
