Scooped Sides shorten the entry point for children to climb off and on. Some parents find this helps for children who are attached to the support that their crib provides. The Scoop Right Side has a high section on the left side and a scooped entrance on the right side. The child will sleep with their head by the high side with their feet by the scooped entrance. |

The Scoop Left Side has a high section on the right side and a scooped entrance on the left side. The child will sleep with their head by the high side with their feet by the scooped entrance. |

Safe & Effective Use
It is important for small children to have space to right themselves after rolling off the bed. For children under 18 months, do not place Low Side or Scoop Side closer than 12" away from the wall.
The High Side should be less than 1.5" or greater than 12" away from the wall. This will either prevent children from getting stuck or give them space to right themselves.

FAQ
At what age should I transition my child to a floor/toddler bed?
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) advises beds “intended to provide free access and egress to a child not less than 15 months of age.” These regulations prevent companies from selling beds that are not entirely enclosed as products for children under 15 months. Many families choose to switch their child earlier than 15 months while others choose to wait. We believe that you'll know what's best for your child. You know how your child sleeps, how their room is set up, what they'll need to grow and what you're comfortable with. Every child is different. We encourage you to observe and adapt your child’s space based off of their unique abilities and needs.
How can I help my child make the transition to a floor bed?
Read community feedback about their experiences transitioning to a floor bed as well as a sleep expert's advice below.
When is the best time to adjust the bed from the low to the high orientation?
The high orientation raises the mattress an additional 5 inches off the floor. The best time to adjust the bed is when your child feels comfortable getting into the bed independently with the additional height.
What mattress fits the best with this bed frame?
We suggest a mattress thickness of 4-8 inches to ensure that the mattress does not sit above the high or scoop side of the frame. We recommend the following mattress dimensions for a safe and comfortable fit in our bed frames:
Crib / Toddler Frame
Mattress: 52"L x 28"W
Twin Frame
Mattress: 75"L x 38"W
Full-size Frame
Mattress: 75"L x 54"W
We suggest a mattress thickness of 4-8 inches to ensure that the mattress does not sit above the high or scoop side of the frame.

Customer Reviews
Beautifully crafted, simple assembly, and our toddler loves it. We were hesitant to order online but the quality of this product is extraordinary! I’d buy all our furniture from them if we could.
Our daughter absolutely loves her new bed. It arrived earlier than expected and it’s such a great quality. 100% recommended.
We got this for transitioning my daughter to her own bed when she was 2. After 3 years of cuddles, jumping, piles of dogs and cats, and both adults and toddlers putting it to the test, it is still in excellent condition. It was even amazingly easy to switch to the taller version when we needed a bit more storage space moving to a smaller house. We LOVE this frame, and are giving it up to another family at this point only because there isn't a way to convert this one to a bunkbed. I highly recommend it.
Love the twin size bed for our son! Very well made. Perfect!
