Buying Bunk Beds Kids Bunk beds for kids are a great way to allow siblings to share a space without compromising their personal space. They can also be an ideal option for hosting sleepovers. These beds can include ladders or stairs that can be used to reach the top bunk, and are made from metal and wood. Size Compare the dimensions of your room to the dimensions of a bunk bed prior to you purchase it. You'll need to ensure that there's enough space for kids to climb up and down the ladder (or stairs if the bunk has stairs) and to maneuver around the loft without bumping into walls or furniture. It's also important to consider the bunk bed height and headroom in relation to your children's standing and sitting height. You may have to purchase a bunk bed that is shorter to accommodate smaller children while older kids may prefer a higher-setup. Bunk beds for children are available in two different configurations – twin-overtwin or full-overfull. Both are excellent options to accommodate multiple kids in one room. Some bunks include the option of a trundle bed for more guests for sleepovers. If your children are still young, you should choose a lower-level bunk bed so that the bottom bunk does not exceed 50 inches above the floor. This will prevent your children from falling out of their beds, which can be risky for safety. Another aspect to consider is the amount of space between the top bunk and the guardrails. The CPSC recommends that the height of the top mattress not be more than 5 inches higher than the guardrail. This will help keep your kids from rolling out of their bed in the middle of the night and crashing into the guardrails, which could cause entrapment or falls. Ganjian says that the top bunk beds are made with solid materials, and they comply with CPSC safety requirements. Examine the construction of every bunk bed to ensure it's constructed with high-quality wood, and isn't too fragile or unstable. Some of the best bunk beds for kids also have mortise-and-tenon joinery, and are Greenguard Gold Certified for meeting strict standards for chemical emissions.

It's easy to assemble with the included tools and can be converted into three beds that stand on their own in the event that your children outgrow the arrangement. It is available in a neutral finish that can be combined with muted or vibrant shades, such as weathered blue or brushed gray. Safety Bunk beds can be a fun 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 however, they are most common to children under the age of six. It is crucial to adhere to the manufacturer's safety and assembly instructions as well as use the appropriate mattress size, and set up the bunk beds so that they don't interfere with heaters, windows, or hanging lights. It's also an excellent idea to regularly inspect the bunk bed for any signs of wear and tear and make repairs as required. The top bunk's height should be kept to a maximum of four feet, and there should be guardrails on both sides of the bed. The space between guardrails shouldn't be more than 3 ½ inch to avoid suffocation. This will also ensure that your child cannot slide under the guardrail while sleeping. The bottom mattress should be held up with wires or slats extending directly beneath the bunk. They should also be secured at both ends. This will stop your child from falling through the gap. The ladders or stairs must be affixed to the bunk bed. They should be secured and provide a safe method of climbing to the upper level. Be sure that the ladder isn't near any dangers, and that your children are aware that they should only use it to climb into the bed. Avoid rough play on the bunks because it could affect their stability. There isn't an age at that children are considered to be too old for bunk beds, however many experts advise that children should not sleep in the top bunk until they are at minimum six years old and are able to sit still while sleeping. If you are unsure of your child's capacity to climb up the top bunk, consider a full-size or twin bunk instead. Style Bunk beds allow kids to share a space and remain close to their siblings while maximizing space. They're also a great way to inspire teamwork in younger children and can make sleepovers more fun for everyone involved. Bunks with desks are great for teens and older children because they can combine sleep and study furniture in one. Bunks with ladders or stairs can make climbing up to the top of the bed more secure and easy for kids of all different ages.

Stairs and ladders are another style features that you should think about, along with safety rails and extra storage. kids bunk beds come with standard ladders that attach to the side of the frame, while others feature a set stairs that are built into the frame. Staircases offer a more modern and sleek design and are safer than traditional ladders. You can also personalize your bunk beds by selecting a color scheme to match the personal style of your children, or the style of your bathroom. Some bunk beds are finished in white, while others are finished in natural or dark cherry wood. If you're buying an wooden bed you can paint it to match the color scheme of your children's rooms or stain it for an authentic look. To add a custom touch to your bunks, you can buy decorative lighting that matches the theme or style of the room. You can mount recessed lights in the ceiling, for instance, to provide ample illumination without taking up floor space. If you have a metal or wooden bunk bed, you might be able to add swag lights that hang from the ceiling. They offer more gentle lighting. Stores The defining feature of most bunk beds is their ability to increase the space in your kids' bedroom by stacking two beds one on top of the other. These beds can be stacked for as long as your children are young or until they reach the age of tweenhood, or they can be separated to create individual bed frames. This is ideal for families that move often or have a small house. These versatile bunk beds also come in a variety of configurations, with traditional twin over twin and twin over full and queen over queen options available (like the Crate and Barrel Babyletto TipToe White & Washed Natural Wood Bunk Bed). They can be set up with different heights, and some even have a step-ladder angled for easier climbing. When selecting a bunk bed, you should take into account the construction. Some models are made from a mix of medium-density fibreboard and kiln dried hardwood. While the former is less expensive and has more modern appearance, the latter can be sturdier and more durable. Bunks that have trundle beds are the ideal option for sleepovers. Some have the capacity to add an additional trundle bed in another configuration. These models can sleep up to three adults or children. This is ideal for bedrooms that share space, which creates family bonds and friendships. A bunk bed's color and design are the two most important things to consider. Crisp whites, neutral greys and subtle finishes in clay can all be paired with any decor for bedrooms. A crisp white bunk bed is an excellent option for coastal, cottage or bright bedrooms, while a neutral gray or clay option will seamlessly blend with a range of palettes as your child matures and evolves as a person. While the cost of a bunk bed may differ, the majority of models have a relatively reasonable price tag that's comparable to other similar types of bedroom furniture. Some of the lower-priced models are made from cheaper materials, whereas many of our top-rated bunk beds are built to last enough to last throughout the years of your child and beyond.
