Buying Bunk Beds Kids Bunk beds kids let siblings share a space without compromising their individual space and can be ideal for sleepovers. Based on the model you choose, these beds may have stairs or ladders to access the top bunk, and they can be made using a variety of materials including metal and wood. Size Take a look at the dimensions of your room to the measurements of a bunk bed before you purchase it. You'll need to make sure there's enough space for your kids to climb the ladder or stairs (if they're included) and move around the loft without bumping into furniture or walls. It's also important to take into consideration the bed's height and headroom in relation to your children's standing and sitting height. You might need to purchase a shorter bunk to accommodate children who are younger, while older children may prefer a taller setup. Bunk beds for kids are available in two configurations twin-overtwin and full-overfull. Both are excellent choices for accommodating multiple kids in one room. Some bunks include an trundle that can accommodate additional guests for sleepovers. If your kids are still young, you should look for an extremely low bunk, with a bottom bunk that is not more than 50 inches away from the ground. This will stop your children from falling out of their beds, which is an accident hazard. The distance between the top bunk and guardrails is another crucial factor to consider. The CPSC recommends that the top bunk's mattress to be no higher than 5 inches above guardrail. This will stop your child from slipping out of bed in the middle night and crashing into the guardrails. This can cause an entrapment or even a fall. The most suitable bunk beds for children are constructed with durable materials and meet CPSC safety standards, according to Ganjian. Make sure to inspect the construction of each bunk bed to make sure it's constructed using high-quality wood and isn't fragile or unstable. Some of the more expensive bunk beds for kids have mortise and tenon joinery and are Greenguard Gold Certified. This triple bunk bed from Pottery Barn will work well for a guest room, a vacation home, or even to sleep your kids. It's easy to assemble with the included tools and can be converted into three separate beds when your children grow out of the arrangement. It comes in a soothing neutral finish that blends into both vibrant and muted color schemes, including the weathered navy and brushed gray. Safety Bunk beds are a great and exciting addition to any child's bedroom, but they can be dangerous when not properly built or used. Bunk bed-related injuries may occur at any age, but most often happen to children under the age of six. It is crucial to adhere to the safety and assembly instructions and use the correct mattress size, and position the bunk beds so they aren't in conflict with windows, heaters, or hanging lights. It's also a good idea to regularly inspect the bunk bed for signs of wear and tear and then make repairs as required. The top bunk's height should be limited to four feet. There are guardrails on both sides of the bed. The space between the guardrails should be no larger than 3 ½ inches to prevent death and ensure that your child can't fall under the guardrail when sleeping. The mattress at the bottom should be supported by wires or slats that run directly underneath the bunk and secured with a secure nut at both ends to prevent a gap where your child might fall through. The ladders or stairs must be affixed to the bunk bed and secure and should offer a safe way of climbing to the upper level. Make sure the ladder is not near any hazards and that your children understand that they should use it only for climbing into bed, not to be used as an area for play. Also, avoid rough play on the bunks because this can compromise the stability of the structure. There isn't an age at which children are too old for bunk beds, however many experts advise that children should not sleep on the top bunk until they're at minimum six years old and are able to sit still when sleeping. If you are unsure of your child's readiness to climb on the top bunk, think about a full-size or twin bunk instead. Style Bunk beds are a great way for kids to share space with their siblings and to maximize their room. They are also an enjoyable way to organize sleepovers for everyone involved. Bunks with desks are ideal for older children and teenagers because they combine sleeping and studying furniture into one. Bunks with stairs or ladders can make climbing up to the top bed safer and easier for children of all ages. You can customize your bed by selecting the size, style and other features you would like to have. The kind of mattress you select will determine the level of comfort your bunk bed will be. Slumberland offers a wide range of mattresses of the highest quality for all types of bunk beds. We offer innerspring, memory foam, and hybrid-type mattresses in all sizes, allowing you to find the perfect mattress for your children's or teens' bunks. Other design features to think about include ladders and stairs, safety rails, and additional storage options. Some bunk beds feature ladders that attach to the sides, while others incorporate stairs into the frame. Staircases offer a more contemporary and sleek appearance and are more secure than standard ladders. You can also personalize the bunks with a color scheme that matches your child's personality or the decor of the other rooms. Some bunk beds come with a white finish, while others are available in dark cherry or natural wood finishes. If you are buying an wooden bed you can paint it to be in line with the color scheme of the room your children are in or stain it to keep a natural look. To add a custom design to your bunks, you can purchase decorative lighting that matches the theme or style of the room. It is possible to install recessed lighting in the ceiling, for instance, to provide ample illumination without taking up the floor space. If you have a wooden or metal bunk bed, you might also want to add swag lights, which hang from the ceiling. They can provide soft lighting. Storage Most bunk beds are characterized by their capacity to increase the space in your child's bedroom. This is achieved by putting two mattresses on top of each other. The design of these beds often allows for the beds to remain stacked as your children grow into teens and tweens or be separated into separate free-standing bed frames. This is perfect for families who might move frequently or have smaller homes. The bunk beds are available in various configurations. They include the classic twin over twin, full over twin and queen over queen (like Crate & Barrrel Babyletto TipToe White and Waxed Natural Wood Bunk Bed). They can be set up with different heights too with some featuring a step ladder that sits at an angle for easier climbing, or a staircase that has built-in drawers that permit storage out of sight. When you are choosing a bunk bed, you should also consider its construction. Certain models are constructed from a mix of medium-density fibreboard and kiln dried hardwood. The former is cheaper and has modern appearance however the latter may be more durable and sturdy. Bunks that have trundle beds are an excellent option for sleepovers, and some include the ability to add an additional trundle bed in a second configuration. These beds can accommodate up to three adults or children. This is perfect for bedrooms that share space, which encourages family bonds and fosters friendships. The last element to consider when choosing the right bunk bed is design and color, with crisp whites, neutral grays and muted clay finishes offering a range of aesthetic choices that will complement any bedroom decor. A white, crisp bunk bed is a great pick for cottage, coastal or bright bedrooms, while a neutral gray or clay choice can be seamlessly incorporated into the various palettes as your child matures and evolves as a person. While the price of a bunk bed may vary, most models feature an affordable price that is comparable to other types of bedroom furniture. A few bunk beds that are priced lower are constructed with less durable materials, however many of our top-rated models are built to last enough to last through childhood and beyond.
