Once it is assembled, customers generally feel that the Soom Soom Toddler Bed is an excellent product at an excellent price – sturdy and good value. It’s nice and low to the ground, easy to get in and out of without falling. The guard rails don’t get in the way of this, but they do keep the occupant safely in the bed at night. Children love it – and it looks good: wood, not plastic, so adults tend to be happy too!
The only downside, for some people, seems to be putting the pieces together. As with most flat-pack items, the instructions aren’t as clear as they could be. On the plus side, the screws go metal into metal, so there’s no risk of the holes in the wood getting too big if you need to dismantle and reassemble the bed a few times.
To avoid an afternoon of undue stress and raised blood pressure (!) it makes sense, before diving in, to read the instructions carefully and check that you have all the necessary parts. Apparently, fitting the slats into the bed rails can be a bit tricky, so be prepared for that. But it’s really not that difficult if you just take your time!
Others have mentioned being put off by a chemical smell. If you find the smell of the finish is lingering, one suggestion is to wipe down the parts with a couple of drops of tea tree oil on a damp cloth or paper towel before assembling and a few times afterwards. It will soon disappear. It’s quite a good idea anyway to give the bed a good wipe, so it’s all nice and clean for your toddler.
Here’s what one owner said about the StorkCraft Soom Soom Toddler Bed:
My husband and I bought this bed after spending many hours researching different brands and styles. This is the one we chose and we are so glad we did. It went together so easily! It’s very sturdy and looks great! Our daughter is so excited with her new “big girl bed”! I would recommend it to anyone.
