I have the Stokke cot and love it. We got the bassinet conversion but not the toddler bed one. DS stayed in the cot till a couple months after he turned two. The only reason we moved him to a big boy bed was because we were pregnant and I wanted to use the cot for the new baby (wasn't about to buy a second cot after having spent so much initially). Personally, I wouldn't bother spending the extra $$$ on the toddler bed conversion. You can remove a side from the cot and it is big enough for them to stay in for quite awhile.
My DD has been in the Stokke with the bassinet conversion. We absolutely love it. she is 2.5 and still in it ( removed front panel to make toddler bed). Expecting bub2 soon so she will go into her "big girl" bed now. We did debate getting the jnr bed conversion, but decided it wasn't worth it 1.) price 2.) too narrow as a bed and she probably won't be in it for too long? 3.) would need to get new mattress - they are not cheap! 4.) DD actually wants a "big girl" bed now and not the cot. Congrats on your purchase - it's a great cot. and yes, I would get the stokke mattress.
