A good solution to beaver babies
By P. Carboni
We have a crib with a pretty wide rail that prevents most rail guards from fitting. After reading the horrible reviews about the ones that use adhesive or buckles to stay on the rail I went with this much simpler design.
I ordered it on Sunday, July 11, and received it on Tuesday, July 13. I did pay for 2nd day shipping, but I figured since I ordered on a non-business day that it would be today (Wednesday, July 14) before I received it...so I was pretty happy about the quick delivery.
The outer layer is the softer fleece. The layer that rests on the rail is a thin, plastic-like material that I suppose is to prevent saliva from soaking through to the wood. Between the two layers is some padding to add a little thickness to the covers.
THE GOOD:
1. Very easy to install (not sure if "install" is the right word, but it sounds professional).
2. The extra padding also doubles as a guard against head bumps.
3. Can fit a wide range of crib rail sizes.
THE BAD:
1. The ties are made of the same fleece material that the rest of the cover is made from. This makes them pretty stretchy which makes tying them tightly somewhat more difficult.
2. Because of the material of the ties, I could hear threads snapping everytime I stretched and tightened one. I was afraid that I was about to tear the tie from the cover.
3. There probably need to be four ties per cover instead of three. Our crib has a very wide vertical bar in the very middle of the front. Because of this it was very difficult to tie the middle tie. We had to really pull and stretch it to one side of that wide bar to tie the middle down.
WORD TO THE SEAMSTRESSES OUT THERE:
My mother-in-law is an incredible seamstress. She has made numerous outfits and blankets for our daughter, and had I thought about it I would have simply had her design and make a rail cover for us. It's a VERY simple design that wouldn't take an experienced seamstress much more than 30 minutes to duplicate for only a fraction of the cost. Just remember to sew in that waterproof layer on the back and add some padding between the front and back layers.

Wish I Had Bought it Sooner
By E. Conn
I love these rail guards. They look good and prevent my 10-month-old from chewing up the rails of his crib. :)
I read another review that said they slip out of place, but I have not experienced that. Also, my son can still pull himself up just the same as he could before I put the guards on.

needs to be thicker
By Jaxonsmommy
This item covers the crib well and does the trick, unless you have a little monster like me that likes to chew everything. He chews on it and the pressure goes through and still scratches the crib. I wanted to get the plastic covers for underneath, but my railing is too wide. So this works.
