So DF and I have decided to make DS a Fire Engine bed to go into straight from his cot. We have taken the side off his cot to get him used to not being trapped in as he was climbing the rails and getting his legs stuck sleeping sideways in the cot.

I'm just wanting to know if anyone has had one of these novelty beds and if you thought it was worth it. Obviously we are going to have to spend around $200 for the materials, but I have looked on the net and they seem to be up around the $300-$600 mark so it's definitely cheaper.

I don't know I'm just feeling unsure about it so advice would be appreciated.
