Can this crib be converted to a full-size bed without using the foot board? Would that require a different type of conversion kit?

With what it comes with no. I think the side rails can be purchased separately to turn it into a twin size. I do believe the foot board would have to be used also. Delta Children Canton Full Size Wood Bed Rails, Espresso Cherry

You can just use the head board with a regular metal bed frame. In fact to use both headboard and footboard with a regular full-size bed frame, you need additional hardware. I contacted Delta and they sent it to me for free.

I wondered the same thing so, I called Dream on Me , so I could before purchasing and they said that the "conversion kit" would just be any standard bed frame, which you could get from any store, but what I did find interesting was that you would need to buy the seperate leg post if you want to detach the changing table and use it seperate.... and you can buy that on the bottom of the webpage where they say "to complete the set".

Yes, my experience was: I called Delta to request the free conversion kit that it claims comes with this. I could not get through to anyone on the phone. I emailed their customer service. I received a response that said: "if you are converting into a twin size bed please go to any mattress retailer store and purchase a twin size bolt-on metal bed frame."

We haven't converted it yet, but it comes with the parts to do so. It looks like the only thing you would need to buy is the mattress for the bed.

I think all you need is to buy two bed rails from the company that makes them. I bought two of these cribs for my twins and really like them. But my babies are 3 months old so I haven't got to that point yet.

It has everything for a toddler bed conversion but not for use as a full size bed.

I guess it would depend on the crib you are attaching it to--We bought a full size mattress/boxspring and it fit perfect--the crib was made for a full size conversion--although there is a kit for "adapting" offered so maybe that is for a twin

I think all you need is the toddler rail and screws, and it came with that. It may not come with the pieces needed to make it a full sided bed, though. I used it until my son was two, and then bought him a new bed and am using the crib for my baby girl now. Their customer service is really great, though! I realized we were missing some pieces a year later, so I contacted the manufacturer, and they shipped the pieces out free of charge. Maybe contact them to be sure?? Any standard sized baby mattress would work. I went to babies r us and bought the one that was most comfortable in my opinion. An organic mattress would be the only thing I would suggest to buy since it would be free of so many more toxins. They can be pricey, though.

It does not convert to a regular bed unless you purchase the side rails separately.

The complete conversion kit for toddler bed came with the crib. The first package was damaged and required exchange which was simple. We love the crib.

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 use this as a full size bed, all you need is the large headboard piece that is curved at the top. You will need to buy a metal bed frame which will attach to the headboard. No other pieces from the crib are used. hope this is helpful.

It doesn't come with a kit. We've had it almost three years and never converted it, just reused it as a crib for our second. It's pretty beat up now so we'll probably just get rid of it.

I asked the same question and someone responded, you just take off the front rail to convert to toddler bed.

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.

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.

I'm not sure. I think the twin converts to full size but not sure. I'm only using it for twin beds. I'd suggest you check if it'd expandable. Then, you will just need the right screws.
