So perfect for our 2.5 yr old! We were trying to keep him in his crib as long as possible but he just kept climbing out  we were worried he would hurt himself one day. He adores his new “big boy bed”  since it’s platform style,  we don’t have to worry about him hurting himself when getting out. Having the bookshelf is so handy  convenient too! He has his toyscars on display in the headboard  books along the side shelves. Highly recommend, especially for a toddler. It was also really easy to put together!
