well, I got that far as well, but how do you actually fully collapse it? I just can't get those long sides to fold so that I can wrap it up with the mattress. So frustrating!

[tapmad]

@knuddelnine If you managed to get that far, then the long sides fold exactly the same as the short sides. With the base centre plate up high then gather it up. The sides simply have buttons at the mid point where they fold. On some models they are big plastic buttons that can be seen. On others they are concealed and you need to feel for them. Just remember that each side is actually made up of 3 pieces, there is a short centre piece so you have to do 2 folds per side.
