Full Size Conversion Kit Bed Rails for Baby Cache Cribs | Multiple Finishes Available (Espresso)

I was very skeptical on buying this but I’m glad I took the chance because it’s exactly what we were looking for to convert my daughters crib into a full bed. Assembly was pretty easy, there are no pre drilled holes in the bed rails themselves but it wasn’t hard if you have a drill, the sturdiness is great, no extra boards needed at this time (I’m sure the older she gets we will add a few more), the wood is a perfect match to the headboard and footboard, I feel the price is a tad high but this is the only place to get the conversion kit for the expresso heritage crib so I didn’t have a choice. But all in all it is a great product .

The cherrywood was a little bit darker than the headboard but perfectly acceptable. And once I had the frame put together, it’s a beautiful, sturdy piece. My only complaint were the cross slats that were exactly 1 inch too short. Because I put it together last night and the mattress was being delivered today, I had no choice but to run and buy four new slats and put out an extra $25. I threw out the ones that came in the box so I wasn’t too thrilled with that and that’s why only three out of five stars.UPDATE: I was recently contacted by the seller and they told me that they would reimburse me the $25 for the slats I had to buy plus $10 for the trouble. Talk about great customer service!

Four slats were not enough for us to feel the mattress was being fully supported so we got two more slats from a hardware store. The directions also say to use one type of screw that's included but we used another screw that was in package because the first ones weren't long enough. There were no predrilled holes for the slats either so we had to use a power drill to attach them. Once bed is together it is a nice, sturdy bed.

The cherry is a perfect match and all pieces were accounted for. The 4 slats it comes with are NOT enough for even a toddler, forget as an occasional guest bed for adults. I don’t understand why the manufacturers would sell it like this and force you to go through the major hassle of ordering or procuring extra slats. For within $30 of the current price they need to include maybe 4 more slats and call it a day.Instead, I was forced to copy/paste the link in the description that they provide to get even more additional slats than I truly need for a whopping $80 more. Now it’s no longer a steal, plus it’s inconvenient to sell something separately which you clearly will need to make this original kit work as intended.Fast forward to the additional slats arriving from above link. Remove the mattress again, prepare to install only to find....the new extra slats are 1/4-1/2” TOO SHORT and fall right through. Ridiculous. Why wouldn’t they be identical to the 4 slats included in the kit?!?! That’s all people need is 4 more. Instead I have 8 that are too short and a giant heavy box that I somehow have to return.This is a DIY project, not a conversion kit. Expect to have to re-engineer, get creative, add parts, etc. If I Knew I was going to have to build this myself and make a trip to a hardware store I could have just done the whole thing for less $.

Very easy to install. Bed looks great.

I purchased a 4-in-1 Storkcraft Carrara crib for my daughter in 2017 not thinking twice that I would have to purchase anything further as she grew and would eventually need a bigger bed. I recently discovered during the full size bed assembly that the bed rails were not included in the original purchase. No where was this mentioned except for tiny print on the last page of instructions of the Storkcraft manual and now in 2022 this was obviously a problem. I searched everywhere only to find this model was no longer in production. I reached out to this company to see if they could help, and not only did they help but they went above and beyond to help me find bed rails that matched my daughter’s bed. Assembly was quick and easy and I could not be happier with this experience!

The frame did not come with wooden slats for mattess support

My daughter bed is discontinued so I can on it buy online. Everywhere else was expensive. Box came torn but items were fine. Nothing major. Easy to install. Sturdiness seems to be okay not great but I think it will hold just fine.
