Is there any way to baby proof the sharp edges of the toy? Some of the foam edge bumpers I've seen are too thick.

Probably not easily. I took one of my foam edge bumpers and checked to see for you. It could be trimmed down to fit better. I don't think the smaller clear ones intended for sharp corners would be bit enough. It would be possible to use the foam edge bumpers and trim them all down. But they don't stick that well to begin with, so you would almost certainly have to hot glue or wood glue them to the cube which might damage it when you removed them. Otherwise they wouldn't stick well. They are not sharp edges, just protruding edges. I bought mine for my daughter for her 2nd birthday, but we have had smaller children (1 yr) playing with it too. Noone has had any trouble with it. I am a "babyproofing" maniac, so I understand your concern. But I personally have felt comfortable with this toy as being safe. Hope that helps.

I bought this for my 2 yrs old grandson and he or my great grandson that is 15 months old have never gotten hurt. The edges are not sharp but you may try this web site and see if you get any ideas http://www.plioz.com/rhoost-baby-proofing-products-keep-children-safe-in-the-house/

Honestly I have not had any issues with my child being cut or hurt at all. She has had it since 9 months old when she was cruzing and holding on to stuff to walk. I however have stubbed my toe on it several times. I guess if you wanted to be safe (I get it I was there too, baby proofing) maybe a thick tape from Home Depot, I know craft stores actually have foam tape. I guess it really depends on your comfort level, yeah I thought the edges were sharp but it really has not been an issue, very much like the toys you see in libraries and doctor offices.

I double knotted mine to start with & she just noticed the ties recently but can't undo them (yet anyway). I guess they could pose the same type of problem if you're worried about bumpers. The underside of the CribWrap is plastic (so not a breathable material). My daughter has slept on her stomach from the time she learned to roll over and she flops around so much that I was glad I had also put bumpers in her bed (which I had to weave through the slats since she could pull the bumper down). I have bumpers and CribWraps on the front & both sides of her crib and have never had a problem.

I just had the same problem! I had to slide a twist tie through the zipper to get it off but when I opened it the foam basically crumbled. Not sure why it's so pricey either...we bought the same one at Target for $20...

I had the same problems as Patrick Calahan and Kristin1724. I emailed back and forth with the manufacturer all day today, and was informed "there will still be a gap on the toddler rail." I've since reported this crib to the CPSC (http://www.saferproducts.gov/Default.aspx) because I believe that the design of the converted toddler bed with the rail gap is unsafe. If I had know about this gap before choosing the crib, I would never have chosen the Babyletto Mercer. I now need to purchase a toddler bed for my 22-month-old.

sorry cant help much, just opened it a week ago. But I would imagine like any other resin toy. Keep it out of the elements and rinse it down after each use. My thoughts are the tube in the center might start to catch some mildew, but the child could never reach to that part since it is screwed together and a cap is on top preventing it.

We have had the same problem. Ruined a coffee table and hardwood floors... Writing Hasbro and maybe returning a favorite toy....UPDATE: Contacted Hasbro via live chat on their website. Gave them the numbers from inside the legs and told them the issue. Also said others mentioned it on Amazon. They are replacing for free. They sent a prepaid envelope to send him back in so they can see the issue. I also had an issue with Bumblebee not closing all the way in vehicle mode. They are sending me a new one of that one as well without me having to return it.

Use Painters Tape - it will reinforce the Snuza if you have a super active little one.My twin girls are both tummy sleepers, and it has never bothered them. The sensor is pretty soft. One of my girls is very active and her Snuza's grip wasn't a match for her backscooting and practicing crawling every night. So now when we clip it on the girls we use a little piece of thin painters tape to help give it staying power. No more false alarms.

They are all particle board with sharp edges, I had to apply soft baby corner protections. .....but my son loves the bed ....

I have a crib with solid ends as well. I attached the bumper to the slatted sides only. Our baby is just a few days old and hasn't used his crib yet, but I think it's going to work well. I also had mine monogrammed and it looks great!

Sorry my baby girl hasn't had that issue as of yet, she's 9 months. Has 7 teeth now! My older 5 just did their thing. I believe they make a plastic rail cover that is flexible and just pops on pretty cheap. Easy to put on. One of those should work. Sometimes a few teeth imprints might make a good memory.

I have the same question. I can't believe no one has answered this in 6 months. Additionally, on my toy, there are twist ties and tape stuck thru the wing area that cannot seem to be removed.

That was the problem I had too. My son tried putting duck tape around the outside to make them thicker, but we ended up just buying a different kind. That's why I gave them such a poor review. Sound contact the company to complain.

I put a bumper on mine. It was good. I loved it. My son was 23 months when we moved him to a full sized crib. It worked exactly as planned.

Our 6 year old uses this bed and we've had no worries at all that he will fall out. The raised side where the shelf is, is more than adequate. We've also had no problem with the edges. I don't find them any "sharper" than the edges were on our son's crib, or on any piece of furniture we have in the house. If you are concerned you can always get the adhesive corner guards (the kind you use on the corner of a wall) for extra protection.

Get regular playmobil, she will grow out of too fast. If you are worried about the littler pieces, take them aside until she is ready and there is still a lot to play with.

Yes - we have a standard size Bumper on ours. It fits fine, you just tie the corner ties since there are no holes on the ends. All that being said, I think Pediatricians are recommending no bumpers at all anymore in cribs....

Unfortunately the corners are sharp. This is a kitchen for an older kid. Mine just turned 5 and we bought it for him last Christmas and before that he had two other kitchens that were plastic with all rounded edges. Hope that helps.
