I think one of the main reasons why people think convertible cribs are cool is that they can function for more than just one thing. I mean you go out and spend $800 plus on a crib and all it does is convert to a toddler bed, how much fun is that?
When we decided to make cribs we all thought, well really I thought, we wanted something that was classic and simple and could be more than a crib. Sure the simply affordable crib is just a crib, but it is cheap (not cheaply made however).
I looked around at many of the cribs that convert to fulls out there and I found them lacking. I thought they were whimpy looking as full size beds. Sure you want the crib to be cute, but you want the full size bed to be fab looking as that is what is going to be for the longest part.
The legs were skinny and not very substantial and frankly the whole line of the bed looked like it had once been something else.We wanted more than that.
Enter the Spencer collection. Spencer is bold, big and expensive (we are working on the costs,but what do you expect with solid walnut). He is a canopy crib bed that converts to a toddler bed and then to a full size canopy bed. A shaker style, he is simply and classic, sure to be bold as a crib and a full. No whimpy legs for Spencer, no sir! He has 3.5 inch legs that taper gently to the top and has a simple but classic canopy style at the top.
With his matching Armoire (wow this baby is impressive- 36 Wide, 76 tall and 24 deep) and macthing changing table that converts to dresser/ mule chest. The Spencer collection is solid walnut (not a spec of anything else).
This bed is not on the cheap, it is solid walnut, hand crafted by the Amish in ohio. Hand rubed with tung oil with 3 coats. The piece is assembled for you when it is delivered. How easy could that be? It is easy to put together as a full size bed and it looks good, not shabby.
We are currently working on a few convertible toddler beds that go to twins. Best of all we are excited about the modern cribs that convert to twin beds. YEAH, maybe you do not have the space for fulls, or just like the freedom of twin beds (goodness knows we do).
