Toy Story Toddler Bed

My husband and I bought this bed for our then 2 year old in July 2010 due to his crib being recalled. It was wonderful in the beginning. Our son loved the colorful stickers with his favorite Toy Story characters on it. We bought this out of necessity from our local Wal-Mart store. If given the choice again, I would have just continued to use just his crib mattress on the floor as his bed until we could afford a better bed for him. The "safety" rails on the sides are horrible. My son was able to pull the top (next to the headboard) of the safety rail off with no problem. This causes the screws in the frame to strip the plastic of the "support" beam in the middle of the bed. The metal of the frame is of low quality. Not strong at all. The weight limit on this bed is suppose to be 50lbs., but the frame is broken (bent in half on itself) under my son's weight 0f 31 pounds. Kids are going to jump on their bed even if told not to do it. If a bed will not support this activity, then it definitely should not be used. I thought we would be able to use this bed for him until he got too tall for it, but now we are stuck with a mattress on the floor again until we can find a decently priced twin mattress set. My advice is to spend your money on a good quality, wooden frame toddler bed or just get a twin bed,if space permits, instead of this piece of junk. I would not recommend this item at all. Save yourself the headache. You'll just end up spending more in the long run.
