Toys and Games Reviews of Little Tikes Lightning McQueen Race Car Twin Bed
Customer Review: We love the Ka-Chow bed!
Summary: 5 Stars
We bought this bed for my almost 3 year old son, but we all love it! He was so excited to jump in the bed.
--We placed a 3/4 inch plywood board under the mattress to give more support. 39x75 fit perfectly.
--The bed was simple to put together, but the stickers were like handling super glue! LOL Make sure you have it where you want it before you stick it on the bed.
--Definitely put the stickers on before setting the bed up! With the exception of the tire stickers -- those go on after the bed is together because a screw goes right through the middle.
--The twin size mattress does leave a 3/4 - 1 inch gap around the bed, but the comforter filled that in nicely.
--We did not use a box spring. This made the sides of the bed plenty high enough to keep my son from rolling off...and he seems to like the coziness of it.
--It feels very sturdy. My husband layed in bed with my son tonight...and he's 6'2" and 250lbs!! This bed will last a while!
My son's reaction was all I needed to see to know that we made a great purchase.
Customer Review: As advertized

our kids are 4 and 2, the boy being older, and they both love the Cars movie. Since our son has been watching that movie the longest he gets credit for being the bigger fan.
My wife and I made the mistake of having both tykes in our bed, or in a crib in our room, since their birth and we knew getting them out will be a challenge.
then comes the Lightning McQueen bed. delivery was prompt, setting it up was simple, but the stickers were a pain. I did take the advice from one of these posts and put them on prior to assembly; GREAT ADVICE! we still took an hour to put them on. (my wife and I have a little Adrian Monk in us and we were trying to get them on perfectly).
anyway, last night was my son's second night in the bed, and so far no fuss no muss! my daughter got moved from our bed, into the crib in our room for the first time as well. they both love the lightning mcqueen bed and i wish we had bought it long ago.
I recommend it to any parent whose kids are Cars fans.
Customer Review: Very cute bed for little boys
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this bed for my 2yr old since he LOVES cars. It came in a huge box but the pieces were light enough for me to carry it upstairs without my husband's help. Thankfully I had read some of the other reviews and put the stickers on before putting the bed together. I would rather pay an extra $5 and have it come with the stickers already placed on as it was a real pain to get them perfectly straight. Once the stickers were on, I proceeded to put the bed together and it was very easy to do. Hardly took any time at all. I decided not to get the box spring and use just the mattress with a plywood board under as I was afraid the baby may fall out at night. Turned out great for him. His eyes lit up when he saw the completed bed and started jumping up and down. So cute to watch. I would totally recommend this bed for all little boys that love cars. Since we bought it when he's so young, he should get many happy years out of this bed!Customer Review: This was a wonderful option over the other
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband and I contemplated buying this bed over the wooden Disney Cars bed. After staying up late for several nights, we finally decided and ordered this one and we are so glad that we did. If you son or daughter are big Cars fans they WILL love this bed. Our son turns 3 soon and it was a wonderful transition. It's wonderful overall and he even asks us, "mom dad let's go to bed". The setup was fairly easy especially with all of your recommendations. Thanks and Thank you Little Tikes for making a wonderful product.
We ordered this for Christmas and the only real recommendation I have for everyone would be to provide a good contact phone number because we received a call from a third party delivery company while on vacation to deliver the item and we were not home to answer that call. We then received a letter by mail advising that they would be charging several dollars in storage fees and so on.
Customer Review: A dreambed for any toddler!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this bed for a month now & let me tell you it is awesome! It came in a large box that the delivery guy just threw in my living room--but it was so easy to assemble that I had it all put together the same night! I am a 23 year old single mom, and I was a bit worried about getting it put together, but it was probably the easiest product to put together that I've bought for my son or my house!!! My son absolutely LOVES it (he's 3), and pretty much I'm the coolest mom ever. His two cousins (age 3 and 7) loved the bed too, and just in the month since he's had his bed, he's had 4 sleepovers!!! So if you're having any doubts, just get it! It has two levels that you can place the mattresses on, so if you still are worried about your kid falling off, you can place them on the lowest setting and there is space left on the sides that serve as rails.
