Lindam Easy Fit Bed Guard (Blue)

Product Information

The instructions recommend the bed rail is used between the ages of 18 months to 5 years – and that it’s recommended for mattresses that have a thickness of 25cm maximum.

Many manufacturers advise not using a bed rail on a sleeping surface that is more than 60cm from the floor, so they wouldn’t be suitable for the top bed of a bunk. It also makes getting your toddler in and out of bed easy, with its convenient fold down sides – this will be handy when making the bed, too. If the bed's in the centre of the room, with both sides open, you might need 2 bed rails to secure both sides. Although moving from a cot to a toddler bed is an exciting milestone, there is no reason to rush the transition unless your child is endangering themselves by trying to climb out of their cot.The Easy Fit Bed Guard helps create piece of mind when children make their transition from a cot to a bed, by helping to make the bed secure and prevent the fear of falling out. The Easy Fit Bedguard is designed to cushion your child as they sleep and the lightweight extendable metal frame is in an attractive blue material. At 196cm it's the longest bed guard in our round up, which makes it a great choice for added safety when using with a single, double or king-size bed – however this does mean it is too long to use with a standard toddler-size bed.

Dave admitted that he originally tested it out after fitting it on the bed by using both hands to press the buttons and pulling the guard down with his chin. We decided that instead of going into a toddler bed she would go straight into a single bed and she handled the transition amazingly.It’s a great size for a single bed but may seem quite large if attached to a cot bed in bed mode or toddler bed. Whether you’re looking for a full travel system to a baby bath seat we’re certain we’ll have something to fit your taste and budget. Other toddler bed guards are made from foam or fabric such as mesh, so they are softer and less rigid if children like to sleep up against the side.

The Lindam Easy Fit Bed Guard helps children make the transition from a cot to a bed without the fear of falling out in the night. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and test its strength by pushing on the guard from inside the bed.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Keeley Black, a baby safety expert who runs SafeCircle babysitting, advises that toddler bed guards can be used by children up to around 5 years old.

As well as looking good, it's safe and easy-to-use, with a simple push button to fold down the panel and allow your child easy access to get in and out their bed.

Lindam sent us their Safe and Secure Soft Folding Bed Rail to review and I hoped it would be an improvement on the last one.Some children get used to their big bed very quickly, whereas others may benefit from the added protection of a guard or rail for a few more years. The Bed Rail can be positioned at whatever point you like on the bed and we chose to put it just below her pillow so that most of the area where her body would lay is protected from falling. Designed by 2 mums after 1 too many sleepless nights, inflatable Dream Tubes are a slightly different option for keeping your child from rolling out of bed. You can take them with you everywhere – no more rearranging the furniture to prevent kids from rolling out of bed. It's a small and non-intrusive way to help keep your toddler a little more secure in those early months after moving to a bed.
