Buying Bunk Beds Kids Bunk beds for children are a great option to allow siblings to share a space without compromising their personal space. They are also an ideal option for hosting sleepovers. They can also have stairs or ladders to reach the top bunk, and are made from metal and wood. Size Take a look at the dimensions of your room with the measurements of a bunk bed prior to you buy it. You'll need to ensure there is enough space for your children to climb the stairs or ladder (if they're part of the set) and move around the loft without crashing into furniture or walls. It's also important to consider the bunk bed height and headroom in relation to your children's standing and sitting height. It is possible to purchase a shorter bunk bed to accommodate younger kids while older kids may prefer a higher-setup. Bunk beds kids typically come in two styles: twin-over-twin and full-over-full. Both are great for accommodating multiple kids in a single room. Some bunks come with the option of a trundle to allow for guests who aren't sleeping. If your kids are still young, consider an extremely low bunk, to ensure that the bunk at the bottom is not more than 50 inches from the ground. This will keep children from falling out of bed, which can be a danger to safety. The distance between the top bunk and guardrails is another crucial aspect to take into consideration. The CPSC recommends that the height of the top mattress be no more than 5 inches above the guardrail. This will stop your children from rolling out of their mattress in the middle of the night and falling into guardrails, which could cause entrapment or falls. Ganjian says that the top bunk beds are made with solid materials and are in compliance with CPSC safety standards. Make sure to inspect the construction of each bunk bed to be sure it's made with quality woods, and isn't too fragile or unstable. Some of the more premium bunk beds for kids also have mortise-and-tenon joinery and are Greenguard Gold Certified for meeting strict standards for chemical emissions.

It's available in a soothing neutral finish that blends seamlessly into both vibrant and muted shades, including brushed gray and weathered navy. Safety Bunk beds are a great and exciting addition to any child's bedroom however, they can be dangerous if they are not correctly constructed or used. Bunk bed injuries can occur to children of all ages but they are more common among children younger than six years old. It is important to follow the manufacturer's assembly instructions and safety instructions, make sure you use the correct mattress size and position the bunk bed in a way that it does not block windows, heaters or hanging light fixtures. It is also an excellent idea to check the bunk bed for any signs of wear and tear and then make repairs as needed. The height of the top bunk should be kept to a maximum of four feet, and there should be a guardrail on both sides of the bed. The space between guardrails should not be greater than 3 ½ inches to avoid death by suffocation. This will also ensure that your child isn't able to fall under the guardrail when sleeping. The mattress at the bottom should be supported by wires or slats that are directly beneath the bunk and are fastened with a secure nut at both ends to prevent a gap where your child might fall through. Ladders or stairs should be affixed to the bunk bed. bunk bed with slide should be secure, and provide a safe method of climbing to the higher level. Make sure the ladder isn't near any dangers and that your children understand that they can use it only to climb into bed, not as an area for play. Also, discourage rough playing on the bunks because it could affect the structural stability. There is no specific age at which children are too old for bunk beds, however many experts advise that children should not sleep in the top bunk until they're at least six years old and are able to sit still during sleep. If you are unsure about your child's ability to climb onto the top bunk, you could consider a full-size or twin bunk instead. Style Bunk beds allow children to share a space and remain close to their siblings while maximizing space. They are also an enjoyable way to host sleepovers for everyone involved. Bunks that have desks are ideal for teens and older children since they incorporate sleep and study furniture in one. Bunks with stairs or ladders can make climbing up to the top of the bed more secure and easy for children of all different ages. You can customize your bunk bed by choosing the size, style, and other features you'd like to have. The type of mattress you select will determine the level of comfort your bunk bed will feel. Slumberland has a wide selection of mattresses of the highest quality for all types of bunk beds. We offer innerspring, hybrid, memory foam and many other kinds of mattresses of all sizes. Other style features to consider include stairs and ladders as well as safety rails and additional storage options. Some bunk beds feature ladders that are attached along the side, while others have stairs built right into the frame. Staircases offer a more contemporary and sleek appearance and are safer than conventional ladders. You can also personalize your bunk beds by choosing a color scheme to match the personality of your children or the decor of the rest room. Some bunk beds are finished in white, while others are finished in natural or dark cherry wood. If you're purchasing a wooden bunk bed, you can paint it to match your children rooms or pick staining to maintain the natural appearance. To add a custom design to your bunks, you can get decorative lighting that matches the theme or style of the room. For instance, recessed lighting can be installed in the ceiling to give ample light without occupying floor space. If you're using a metal or wood bunk bed, you can also include swag lighting that hangs from the ceiling and gives soft light. Storage The main feature of bunk beds is their capacity to create more space in your children's bedroom by stacking two beds over the other. The design of these beds often allows for the beds to be stacked until your children grow into teens and tweens, or they can be separated into separate free-standing bed frames. This is perfect for families who are often moving or living in smaller spaces in their homes. The bunk beds are available in different 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). Some are available in various sizes, and some include a step-ladder that is tilted to allow for easier climbing. Another thing to take into consideration when choosing a bunk bed is the design, with some models featuring a combination of medium-density fiberboard and kiln dried hardwood. While the former is cheaper and can offer more modern appearance but the latter is more robust and durable. Bunks with trundle beds are ideal for sleepovers. Some come with the option of adding an additional trundle bed in an additional configuration. These beds can accommodate up to three adults or children. This is ideal for bedrooms that share space, which helps strengthen family bonds and encourages friendships. The color of a bunk bed and its design are the two most important things to consider. Crisp whites, neutral grays, and subtle finishes in clay can be combined with any decor for bedrooms. A white, crisp bunk bed is a good pick for cottage, coastal, or colorful bedrooms, while a neutral gray or clay option will seamlessly blend with the various palettes as your child matures and matures into a mature person. While the price of a bunk bed can vary, most models feature a relatively reasonable price tag that's comparable to other similar types of bedroom furniture. Some of the lower-priced models are constructed from less expensive materials, while many of our top-rated bunk beds are durable enough to last for the duration of childhood and beyond.
