Hi everyone, I'd appreciate your advice on cot beds.
We've got the opportunity/problem of needing to buy new cots or cot beds for our 2 1/2 yo twins. (We're moving abroad and there will be a period when their cots are in storage/transit). They're still happy in cots and I wasn't planning on moving them to beds until I have no option (they wear sleeping bags and so luckily it's never occurred to them to try to climb out).
I could just buy cheapy ikea cots and give them away afterwards but as I'm forced to buy something, I was thinking about cot beds that you can take the side off of and make into a toddler bed.
My main question is, how long were you able to use them for? Is it possible to get ones that are same size as a full-sized child's bed? The full sized children's beds I've seen were 165cm but the biggest cot beds I could find (on John Lewis website) were up to 144cm Does anyone know of any bigger ones they would recommend?
