Buying a Kids Bunk Bed

If you're planning to furnish your room with two kids or simply looking to maximize your floor space, bunk beds are an excellent solution. Before you purchase a bunk bed, carefully think about your options.

Safety is a big consideration. It's crucial to establish rules for not using the top bunk for anything other than sleeping and do not hang anything on the bunks.

Size

Bunk beds and loft beds are available in a wide range of sizes. Some include two twin mattresses, whereas others can accommodate a queen or full mattress on the bottom tier. Some bunk beds have the option of a trundle which can be hidden when not being used. Bunk beds are an excellent option for rooms with limited space because of their space-saving design. Bunk beds are also less expensive than purchasing separate mattresses for children.

The majority of bunk beds come with a ladder or staircase to reach the top bed. Some bunk beds come with a railing so that children sleeping on the top bunk do not fall out. Some designs even have futons at the bottom of the tier that can be used as a couch during the day, and also as an extra bed at night.

Many parents choose to purchase bunk beds for their children as it helps them save room in their child's bedroom. Moreover the bed can easily be separated into individual beds if needed in the future. Bunk beds are particularly useful in rooms for children that are shared by several children.

The most popular size for a kids' bunk bed is one twin mattress on the top and bottom tiers. This arrangement allows children of all ages the space they require to sleep comfortably. Twin mattresses are a great choice for toddlers that have outgrown their cribs but aren't ready to move up to a full-size bed.

There are bunks that have two twins by side. This allows two children to share a bed and still have their separate space. These designs are often called twin over twin bunk beds and they are the perfect solution for families with several children who want to maximize the amount of floor space in a small bedroom.

Some bunk beds have a full-sized mattress on the lower level, which is great for teens or older children. This arrangement is perfect for sleeping overs or giving kids more space to relax and spread out. A majority of these bunk beds are also available in a variety of styles and finishes, so you can choose the perfect piece to fit your child's unique style personality.

Safety

While bunk beds are fun for kids, they can be dangerous if they're not constructed and placed in a safe manner. Ensure that your bunk bed meets the safety standards of the country and has been tested properly. It should also be firmly attached to the frame and have the appropriate weight limit for both the top and bottom mattress.

A quality bunk bed for kids is one that has guardrails in the upper sleep zone, which protect children against falling off during their sleep. These rails should extend at least five inches above the surface of the mattress. Make sure there's no gap in between the guardrails, as it could restrict a child's head or other body parts and cause injury.

In addition, it's essential to teach your children to safely use the stairs or ladder to get to the top bunk. It is best to have only one person use the top bunk at one time. It's important to discourage rough-housing or jumping on beds. These activities can lead to injuries and weakening of the foundation support system. Check the bunk bed for wear signs, and tighten loose bolts or screws immediately.

Children who are asleep on the top bunk should not be allowed to fall out of the bed, as this could result in serious injuries. If your child is planning to sleep in the higher bunk you should put an artificial light in the room to aid them in seeing the ladder.

It's also recommended to keep books, toys and other items away from the bunk bed. This reduces the risk of a child tripping or falling over them, and also keep them from getting caught in the guardrails.

If possible it's a good idea for the bunk bed to be set in a corner. This will help to brace the structure and prevent it from moving when someone climbs up the ladder. Bunk beds should be kept a safe distance from ceiling fans, light fixtures and curtain hardware to avoid your kids hitting their heads while inside or out of them.

Style

It's important to consider the style of furniture when picking a bunk bed for kids. Bunk beds are available in different styles, from classic to contemporary So you're bound to find one that matches your child's preferences. Bunk beds also give you the possibility of adding special accessories, such as curtains, that can create an atmosphere of privacy and separate sleeping spaces. Other features, like desks and built-in storage help your children stay organized.

The standard twin-over-twin bunk bed is another option. It's great for teens and kids who share bedrooms. This kind of bunk bed features sturdy guardrails that are connected to the frame to stop falling while sleeping. Other safety features to look for include an incline or stairs that are securely connected to the frame, and come with wide, non-slip stairs. These steps can also be marked with numbers to help keep track of who is occupying the top bunk.

Bunk beds with slides are also a great option for kids who prefer to play in the dark, and transform the top bunk into a fun playhouse or clubhouse.
