great

Im sure this rail is more sturdy when used on a wooden frame or slats, but when you use the straps designed for the box spring, its just not sturdy enough. The straps themselves rely on the mattress on top of them to keep them in place and to keep the rail from coming loose. Will it keep my toddler from rolling onto the floor? Probably. But I can see him easily getting squished between the bed and the rail, the rail becoming extremely loose, or even eventually pulling off completely. This definitely needs some redesigning for box spring use.

We needed something for our granddaughter, who is transitioning out of her crib. She stayed the night and we have a bunk bed that naturally has a guard rail on the top (not the bottom). The bottom bunk bed has a wooden frame about 3-4 inches high, that holds the mattress in place but offers the sleeper no protection. We needed a bed rail that would fit between the mattress and the wooden bed frame and this one fit perfectly.

did its job

cannot rate as it was returned

I thought by your description that it extended to a king which I could of really used as I have a dog thats 15yrs old and sleeps in bed. His back legs dont work very well but he tries to crawl off end of bed. My bed is very high. I like that its durable but I wish it was a king

Very sturdy and helps me sleep better knowing my son is safer and not going to roll off the bed!

Not easy to put on the bed. The straps are a little confusing and the instructions were not easy for me to follow for installation. Installation was the main problem for me which also made the rail not sturdy or very safe.

The instructions, except the pictures are useless. Just use common sense and put it together. It was only hard for my to install becUse I could barely lift the heavy twin mattress on and off the bed to get this under it. It works well

It takes a few minutes to screw in all the screws and if you need to rebox it until you need it again, then it doesnt fold flat to stick in a closet. Its a big L shape with the straps flying around. You have to get out the screw driver and take it all apart again. But once youve got everything put together, it works well, gets out of your way easily, and looks good. It wont just fall out of the side of the bed. You must instruct friends who havent used one on how to fold it down. The locking mechanism is so well designed it isnt obvious to find, and its small. This makes it attractive, but unintuitive. You want that. You dont want your toddler (or your elder dementia patient) to figure it out!
