Pros: kids like it, sturdy
Cons: bolts work loose when the kids jump on the bed. <Grin>

| Thrifty_Mom's Full Review: Graco Glow-in-the Dark Toddler Bed |
Perhaps toddler beds should come with safety straps? Or just a lifetime supply of velcro with matching PJ'S? Duct tape? :::::sigh:::: guess not...
However what I have learned about toddlers and beds I have learned since purchasing two of these glow in the dark toddler beds...
The bed itself needs to be checked occasionally since three toddlers jumping on the bed tends to wiggle the screws loose. Can't complain about construction, since they have withstood three toddlers jumping on them at one time.
When the bed needs tightening, the sides tend to come loose from the bed and your toddler will probably use it as an excuse to get out of bed (along with the endless whines for drinks of water, potty breaks, 'just one more kiss and hug', and the "My blankets are off the bed" excuses.
The bed does glow in the dark for about 15 minutes or there about. It is also easy to clean. Crayon comes off like a dream with a little 409.
If I had it to do all over again, I would buy them again. The price was good, putting them together was a sinch, and they have withstood the test of three toddlers. If your toddler is a jumpy active toddler like mine though, keep the tool that comes with the bed handy, and do not throw it away... you will need it.
