Is it worth buying a convertible crib that can later be used as a toddler bed? Did anyone actually use converted the crib into a todleer bed later on?
Also, i heard that the best cribs are the kind where you can lift and lower the front board easily with one hand. is that true or it doesn't matter ?
I need help, please!

Re: Crib questions
We have the Emily Crib it converts and we plan on atleast using it as a toddler bed also. I'm not sure about a full because I don't think a young child needs more then a twin. I was 16 before I got a full.
The side doesn't lift but it has different height setings for the mattress
Because I liked the look of the entire set, the brand was well reviewed, and it was on sale for 30% off.
Mine can convert to a toddler bed, but I didn't pick it for that reason. Toddler beds aren't very expensive, and I'm planning to have a second child who will need to use the crib...
Baby hasn't come yet, so I can't speak too much about use, but being short it was important to me to have a quiet drop side that I could operate with one hand. Mine actually uses one hand and one knee.

Re: Crib questions
We ordered the Isabella crib by Bellini in the natural color. This crib converts to a toddler bed and daybed. We were going to get one that converts to full size but I don't know if a full-size bed will fit in the bedroom so I didn't spend the extra money on it. The Isabella has wheels, which I love, a drop side and adjustable height mattress. Baby isn't here yet so I can't tell you how much we like it, but we looked everywhere and this was very well made and fit our needs.
