This crib has a nice shape, and I like that it came in natural wood vs. painted. Shipping was great and it assembled easily. It seems sturdy, and it will work just fine. However, just know that you get what you pay for. This is typical "made in China" quality. The wood has some color imperfections, and the pieces fit like kids blocks not like a glove. We will probably use it as a toddler bed also, but there's no way we will be converting it into a full bed. But, it's cute and safe, and who wants to spend a lot of money on a bed your child will use for only a few years?
