So, what's the concensus on Bedrails?

Hi Alexa! My DD has been in her bed for about a year and a half and we used a rail for almost a year. We used the Regalo SmartGuard rail that is available at OSA. However some kind soul here mentioned that Walmart also carried it for much, much cheaper (like half the price). So we bought it there.

We never had any problems with it and she never fell out of bed, not once. She sleeps in a double (full-size) bed also that is kind of high off the ground. She never gets off the bed unless we come to get her. She will call our name and as soon as we are in the room, down she goes.

The other 2 sides of the bed are against the wall, so with the rail, only the foot of the bed was exposed. We took the rail away when it was obvious that she was used to sleeping in it.

Overall, I was very happy with it and will use it again for my other DD. HTH!

I thought that was a weird reply. I can't see how any bedrail could cause a mattress to buckle when it's only sitting on the edge.
