This bed is great it fits both a crib mattress & a twin mattress. My son loves his new bed sleeps through the night. I like the high sides so he can't roll out. He's 20 months old. This bed is easy to put together My wife & I did it in 2 hrs.

Let me start off by saying this is a great product. It's well-designed and inspires imagination and creativity for kids.
BUT the packaging (or lack there of) and transportation care really bring down the quality. Initial excitement turns into disappointment as you find scratch after scratch and scuff after scuff. Quality control would do wonders for product and the accompanying accessories that go with it. Proper packaging and care for the products, so they're delivered in brand new quality is a basic requirement.
I would gladly pay a little extra to cover additional packaging support and quality control to ensure that a better product was delivered to me. It's shame, because this bed is a one-of-a-kind.
I purchased this set for my boys after searching the web for race car beds. I was sold on the set because it was very reasonably priced and I needed two of the beds and storage containers. I am very happy with the style, color, durability, and most of all, my boys love it. My oldest son is 2 years old and had been sleeping with us until we assembled this bed. He has willingly slept in his own room ever since. I have gotten so many compliments on this set since I've finished the room.
I bought this for my 2 years old but when I received the furniture it had lot of scratches specially front and back. The dresser door is also defective the do not close
I bought this bed for my grandson and we are all impress. He is going to be 2 years old in June and he loves it. My son made an adjustment and put lights under. It looks awasome!!!
Patricia B:To tell you the truth I don't remember how long but I do remember it wasn't too long. We had a good experience with this company no problems at all and my grandson LOVES his bed!!!! I had him over one night and he was asking for his red car (bed) LOL he is just too cute!!!!Apr 22, 2013
Stephanie H:7-10 days on a semi truck that you have to be home and help unload. its not to bad i had my husband help the trucker it took them 10 min.May 30, 2013
CINDY L:The bed comes with all the support you need. You have the option to set up with a crib mattress or twin. Be sure to read the directions when you decide on the mattress as different steps are needed for the 2. I sleep on this bed with my son and have never had an issue. We have a 4-5 inch twin mattress. Anything larger I think would make the side bumpers useless. Bumpers meaning the window sides, they keep your child from rolling off the bed. Even though my son rolled off last week... He was sleeping more on his pillow than where he should have been. Hope this helps.... Enjoy the bed, we love it..Apr 15, 2013
Don Z:This bed comes with the support for baby and full size mattresses. I weigh about 250 and I lay down for naps with my 3 year old In this bed. I was completely satisfied with the build quality and would highly suggest. The only thing is when applying the stickers you need to use hairdryer to soften the sticker before application. But as for quality, second to none in my opinion. Hope this helpsApr 15, 2013
Jack D:This bed does not require extra support under the mattress. We have a crib mattress in it currently, and the bed supports the weight of my 2 year old and both my wife and I all at the same time. Although we do not all fit on the mattress, at least 2 of us do. And it is very solid. Next year we will be putting a full size mattress in, which will gain even more support from the base of the bed. This is an EXCELLENT purchase. We have not found a single thing wrong with it.Apr 15, 2013
Cari D:There is a wood board that comes with it that fits under the toddler mattress when you are using that. Once you upgrade to a twin mattress you just leave that support in and put the twin mattress on top. It is not super deep so you would not want a box spring under the twin mattress, just the mattress would be fine. My son LOVES this bed and all of the stuff we got for toy storage. I think you will enjoy this if you get it. Good luck!!Apr 15, 2013
K S:I was wondering if you think it would be worth it to buy this set for a child turning 5? I had originally bought my son the step 2 lifestyle bed when he got out of the crib at 3. He doesn't really like the bed anymore and he has chosen to sleep on the floor most nights for a while now. He seems to like sleeping lower for some reason. What do you all think about buying this for a 5 year old? Thank you.Apr 15, 2013
Andrea L:The bed actually comes with 2 boards that slide into the frame that go under the mattress (for extra support).
It's a toddler to twin, but right now we just have the toddler size mattress in. It's great! It just lays in the frame and is flush with the inside ledge.
My 4 year old got the Corvette combo for Christmas....and he LOVES it (as do we)! It's been great:-)Apr 15, 2013
Pam L:Currently we are using our boys crib mattresses. They are the avg size. Under the mattress is a wooden platform. We are planning on changing them to twin beds soon. It is pretty deep so I'm thinking you would be ok with a standard mattress or a more plush one. Hope that helps! Awesome beds too! My boys love them!!Apr 15, 2013
Kamber M:We only have a toddler/crib mattress on ours so far, and it fits great, but whenever we put a real mattress in it we will probably leave the crib mattress underneath bc there is an open space that only a toddler/crib mattress will fit.Apr 16, 2013
Susan B:We purchased this for our grandsons 2nd birthday. He loves it. The bed does not need a support. It takes either a crib mattress or a standard twin mattress. I would recommend just going with the twin right from the start.Apr 21, 2013
Gina M:I would highly recommend a thin layer of plywood if you are using a toddler mattress for support. This item is awesome and the best gift my grandson LOVES IT! Enjoy!Apr 15, 2013
Tracy S:My grandson is only 2, so we just bought a regular mattress. It's not an oversized twin and we just love it!!! We jump and play on the bed and absolutely love it!Apr 15, 2013
Justin S:The bed calls for a 8 inch thick twin mattress. The mattress that I put on it is a twin size serta winslet perfect sleeper. It is a pillow top mattress so It is about 12 inches thick. My kiddo likes it and I think it still looks good. Great twin size mattress for a kid or adult and my kiddo loves his corvette bed. He is 3 now so I figure we should go good at least the next ten years. Apr 17, 2013
Jody V:I am currently still using the crib mattress, but will be buying a twin mattress soon. I think I will be looking for one that is on the thin side as my son is a very "active" sleeper and I would like for the mattress to be below the top edge of the car. Hope this helps.Apr 17, 2013
Tameka R:I can't remember exactly but I am using the recommended size I saw on this site. Sorry. But my now 3year old son loves his bed. It replicates the real deal so much we took him to the car dealership to take a picture of him beside a real one and hung it on his wall.Apr 17, 2013
shereen H:For now I'm using crib mattress for my child is 2 .. But I already bought another one .. Twin bed mattress ..8 inch thick .. But not a heavy one .. And it fits great too .. Apr 17, 2013
Kristina T:I have a six inch twin size. The place I bought it from calls it a "bunkie board". The side rails (windows) serve as a boarder to prevent my toddler from rolling off. Apr 17, 2013
A shopper asked:Would you buy this car bed set for a 5 year old? I bought my son another bed at 3 but he doesn't sleep in it because it is high off the ground and he prefers the floor. His 5th birthday is coming up in a couple of weeks. What is your opinion? Would it be worth the money for an "older" kid? Obviously the best deal would have been to buy it when he was 3 and getting out of the crib.Apr 15, 2013
Deborah M:If the 5 year old likes cars they are gonna live this set. ..my grand son is 4 and he adores it...I was a little apprehensive about spending so much ..But this set is well worth it. And it is is built extra heavy duty. I would recommend getting a nice mattress that your child feels comfortable on..the dresser is a small for my grandsons clothes. But we found a really cute tool box dresser to match.. I give this 5 stars out of 5 for quality and cuteness. .Apr 15, 2013
CINDY L:I purchased this specifically because it takes a twin mattress. I wanted something different and fun for his room. I'm military and we moved from Hawaii to Virginia knowing I would have to wait for furniture to arrived I started researching and I saw this bed and was sold. My son is 19 months now and I'm hoping it will get another 8 - 10 years of use...Apr 15, 2013
Jack M:I think it's definitely worth it. My son is almost 2 and he's slept perfectly since the first night we put him in it about 5 months ago. Since it converts to a twin mattress I think he'll sleep in it until he's almost 10 years old. Worth the price for sure, especially when you add in the dresser, storage chest etc.Apr 15, 2013
Eric D:Hi, All I can tell you is my experience. I gave this to my 2 year old gandson and he loves it. With the option to use a twin mattress the bed will be able to grow with him. Also my son had a car bed long ago. He kept it from the time he was 2 untill around 8 or 9 when we got him a bunk bed. Hope this helpsApr 16, 2013
Corvette B:I bought this for my sons 4th birthday and he absolutely loves this set! I can see him enjoying this bed for a long time! His reaction to the bed was priceless. I would definitely recommend this for older kids because its literally an exact replica of the Corvette. You won't find a better car bed out there. :-)Apr 15, 2013
kayla b:Yes I would purchase this for a 5 year old as Lon as you think he will like cars for a little while we put a twin mistress for my two year old and my husband can sleep comfortably in it... It is the best made car bed I have seen and we did a lot of researching! Highly recommended! :) Apr 20, 2013
Romeu H:I absolutely would, I actually think the bed is better designed for kids at this age than my 3 year old son. The reason is because the bed is too big for the toddler's mattress, leaving several gaps around the mattress that you need to fill with pillows and other stuffs.Apr 15, 2013

Michelle F:I bought this bed set for my two year old son back in November 2012. He absolutely loves it. He is very proud of his bedroom set and will drag his little friends in to see everything. I highly recommend this bed set. It's low to the ground and easy to get in and out of. The doors of the car act like bumper guards so they won't roll off the bed. The set is easy to clean. The assembly is somewhat daunting, but I believe it's totally worth it. I hope this helps your decision. Apr 15, 2013
Eric D:Hi , I bought this for my 2 year old grandson and he loves it! My son had a car bed years ago and had it from the time he was 2 till he turned 9 when we got him a bunk bed as he had friends sleep over a lot. Hope this helps. EricApr 16, 2013

A shopper asked:Would a 5" thick twin mattress work with this bed? It is half foam and half spring. Lays flat like a normal mattress. If you own this bed...how thick is the mattress you r using? Thank youApr 16, 2013
