Firstly although a simple looking item and I am fairly handy in DIY it proved impossible within an hour for me to fathom out how to assemble, the instructions are poor and inaccurate but knowing what piece goes where maybe requires an engineer, never did assemble Secondly readers should be aware if like me they purchased for bunk beds that this item is totally unsuitable and can't be used although it neither states this in the on-line description or instructions, in a small line of text on the box it tells you it can't be used with bunk beds What it is like assembled I cannot say but I did buy 2 inflatable guards which are superb for the purpose and can be used on all beds

Simple to set up, no tools required. I was a little worried about that, there were a couple of reviews that said it was difficult to assemble, but not so. Seems very sturdy. It is not made to keep the child in bed, so if that is what you are looking for, this isn't it. It keeps the child from rolling out as they sleep, and that it does well. Easy to fold up and stow under the mattress.

It really does hold up against a child pushing or rolling against it. Very sturdy and can probably withstand a lot of weight/pressure. Only thing that really bothers me is that the bars that slide between the the mattress and box spring, separate the two about 2-3 inches from each other. So there is this giant gap in between the box spring and mattress. I am also using two of these, one for each side of the bed. Our mattress is so light I feel like it sort of slides around because it is not sitting down against the box spring. These serve the purpose they are intended for, and are easy to fold up and down. Pretty quiet too, I can sneak out of the bed and put this up without waking up my toddler.

We needed a bed rail for one side of our daughter's bed and, as I found out, not all bed rails are created equal. We found this one and opted for the site-to-store delivery to save on the delivery charge. That process was very smooth and the product meets our expectations. It is durable enough for an adventurous, creative 3 1/2 year old, and does fold nicely under the mattress (just might get caught in the bedding a little). It definitely is more durable than others we looked at and we are glad we purchased this one.

We purchased this bed rail for our 2 year old who is a bit big for his age. Haven't had it long, but so far it's held up great. Took a while for my husband to put it together, but now that it's up it seems very sturdy. The fold down feature is quite nice when changing the sheets, you just have to be smart about how you do it. The extra long length is nice too - he can be a wild sleeper and this nearly covers the entire side of his twin bed.

This product was easy to assemble and is super sturdy. My daughter (24 lbs) rolls against it when she sleeps without it budging! The rail is even high enough to work with her European Pillowtop mattress. When the rail is under the mattress it does cause a little rise in the mattress, but what do you expect, not a big deal in my opinion. I would highly recommend to all parents.

This is a very cheaply made product. I was really looking forward to using this on my bed for my son. After I got it put together, my husband noticed that the pull part where the fabric is tearing and coming apart, so you can't secure it to the bed. Definitely taking this back to Walmart and will not be buying another!!!!!

My elderly mother was practically bedridden. The hospice care nurses kept suggesting I bring in a hospital bed but there was no place to put one. I was thrilled to be able to find an extra-long bed railing (i.e. not necessarily for a child) that would neatly slide away under the mattress when I needed to get her up and that would also lock into place so she couldn't roll off the bed and hurt herself during the night. (I only got to use it for a few days before she passed away, hence the used it once per year rating.) I highly recommend this product.

We have this on our daughter's twin bed. She is 1 1/2 years old. We have one side of the bed against the wall and the rail on the other side. Its long enough so she doesn't fall out. I'm just disappointed that it is so hard to hide it away under the mattress during the day. The directions to assemble it were confusing also. I would however recommend this product, b/c it serves its purpose. I was willing to pay more for the hide away option, but knowing its so hard to do that, I probably would of got the regular bed rail.

This is a good bed rail once it is put together. It was confusing, and I normally like the challenge of putting things together. At the end, the cover was put on backward, so it works- just has the warning on the outside which is annoying to look at, and I have no time to take it all appart. You are able to put the rail down and slide it under the bed, which is a nice feature. However you can feel the bars under the mattress. My two year old can't feel it- but I would not be able to sleep on it. When the rail is up it is very sturdy and I feel safe with the generous length of the rail. So I have mixed feelings, I like the length of the rail, but would not pay the extra money for the "slide under the bed" feature.
