We had someone give us a toddler bed and someone else give us a twin size bed. For now, he's in the toddler bed. We just thought it would be cozier for him to go to a space that was a similar size as his crib. He has slept in a twin bed on vacation and at my parents' and been fine so I know he'll be ok when we move him.

Mine used a crib until he was 3.5. Now he has a toddler bed (just removed a crib rail).

We use a twin size bed and she loves it. No bed rail, we just taped together some pool noodles and put them under the fitted sheet.

DD will be 25 months when DD2 arrives. We're currently setting up her big girl room and decided to get rid of my current Ikea twin bed that's in there and just laying the twin mattress on the floor.

We just transitioned recently and just converted her crib to the toddler bed by switching out the rail. I think it made the transition much easier (since it was still "her" bed). I know you want to re-use the crib, so that's probably no help though. We plan to buy a new crib for LO2 and not rock the boat too much with LO1.

We always had a queen size bed in her room, since it used to be a guest room. She had started insisting on sleeping in that bed well before we were ready to transition her, so when she started climbing out of the crib we let her sleep in that. We never did rails. So now our little 3 year old sleeps in a queen bed.

We switched to a floor bed and later put it on a frame. He has no memory of the packnplay being 'his' and was really excited about a bed

we just transitioned lo (2.5) last week to her "big girl bed," which is just the crib with a toddler rail. we actually are probably going to switch her again before lo2 arrives in Feb--but to a different toddler bed, so same size and similar shape of bed frame. the toddler bed is about half the cost of a second crib! our los will be sharing a room so we don't have space for a bigger sized bed

Twin bunk bed at 22 months. He is on the bottom and doesn't know how to climb a straight ladder. I figure when number 2 needs to move out of the crib, he will go into the top bunk.

We transitioned LO at 24 months , 4 months before LO2 arrived. We put her in a twin floor bed even though we have a twin frame. She wasn't a climber and we wanted her to be able to get in and out on her own. I'm sure she'd be fine in a frame bed now but LO2 is mobile now and I like that LO1's room is still a climb & fall-proof spot to stick them both for a few minutes.
