Can I use one full time with an appropriate matress? If not, why not?

Yes it's totally fine

Yes it’s fine
Just get a mattress that fits properly and check the structure of it regularly just in case.

Yep I did. Brought the mattress from asda. I had to put one when my lo was under 6 months as she's a tall kid, size 2 to 3 year old vests already as need the length and only 11 months on 1st 🤦

They utterly trash, the mattress is shit, why on earth would you not buy a cheap bed from ikea?

@LittleAndMellow 🤣🤣 I never suggested it was a money issue?

My DS was born with talipes and wears boots with a connected bar overnight. His boots are getting caught between the bars when he moves and he wakes up screaming because he's stuck.

@ChittyBang1987 I feel we have similar sized kids. Currently sporting 18-24 months at 8. I feel for clothing bills 🤣.

We had one, we didn't have space for a full sized cot at that time.
