How does it convert to a twin bed? Do you just buy a generic twin frame and somehow attach the crib parts to it?

From what comes in the box I would assume yes. There are no side rails with it to help with the transformation to a twin bed.

You need a regular bed frame. My daughter says her bed is fabulous. Her roommate bought a bed for 800$ and it is so uncomfortable. She really LOVES this one. Looks like a regular bed when it is assembled. She was also able to put it all together herself.

I called the company and they said you can convert this to a twin bed by purchasing any adjustable metal frame.

There's a separate conversion kit (rails, etc.), that you need to purchase in order to convert it from a crib to a bed. If you can, either search by the title for the crib listing itself, or go through your orders and pull up the crib listing; it should show a section of items people bought with the crib, and it may show that kit. Good luck!

I bought the crib for my daughter who is expecting twins. This matches the crib I bought for her first child and she would like the two to match. Is there anyway to exchange the crib spring? Have no idea why a black spring was enclosed with a white crib. We would prefer the exchange, please let me know if possible.

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.

You have to buy your own mattress. any standard crub matress works. after conversion to bed then u must buy bed rails and matress even though it says that rails are provided in the description.

The crib comes with a converter rail so you don't need to buy any additional pieces! We love it because it hardly looks like a crib when you convert it to the toddler bed. It's not a full size twin or full bed though.

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 would have to purchase separately. But don't waste your money the crib is crap. It came damaged twice, ultimately we returned for a full refund.

The headboard and footboard for the toddler bed conversion are already part of he dream on me crib; they are the front and back of the crib. The only item you need to purchase when converting the crib is a twin mattress with box spring and the standard metal twin bed frame. The head and footboards are bolted onto either end of the standard frame to complete the toddler bed. I hope this answers your question.

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.

You could raise the crib mattress up one notch, and then you should gain the necessary room in insert the bulky bed rail frame that way. If you look at a picture of the Kidco Convertible Bed Rail on another site (just google the name), you'll that is what they've done. Hope this helps!

The headboard and footboard are the two wider sides of the crib when you are converting to a full size bed. You will need a mattress to use this as a bed.

It does convert into a twin but it doesn't come with the part needed to convert it. You have to but it separately from the manufacturer

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.

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.
