ABSTRACT:
An article of furniture which is convertible to form a crib, a youth bed, or an adult bed. The crib is produced through the interconnection of a rear panel, a right side panel, a left side panel, a front panel and a mattress support frame. This interconnection of parts provides a substantially rectangular configuration having the mattress support frame horizontally disposed therein. The front panel is comprised of at least a lower section and an upper gate section. The upper access gate section permits a greater access to the confines of the crib. The crib is converted to a youth bed through the removal of the upper gate section and the downward vertical displacement of the mattress support frame. The lower section functions as a "roll bar" purposed to prevent a toddler from rolling off of the edge of a mattress. The roll bar may be eliminated by inverting the lower section. The youth bed is convertible to an adult bed by replacing the mattress support frame and the right and left side panels with independent right and left front upright members, which are respectively attachable to right and left edges of the lower section, and right and left bed rails. The rear panel defines a headboard and the lower section defines a footboard of the adult bed. An optional extension is attachable to the headboard to provide a headboard which is more aesthetically appealing to its user.
