Buying Bunk Beds Kids

Bunk beds for children are a great option to let siblings share one room without compromising personal space. They are also a great option when hosting sleepovers. They can be equipped with ladders or stairs to access the top bunk and are constructed of wood and metal.

Size

Check the dimensions of your room with the dimensions of a bunk bed before you buy it. You'll want to ensure there's enough room for your children to climb up and down the ladder (or stairs if the bunk has stairs) and to move around the loft without running into furniture or walls. It's also important to take into consideration the height of the bunk bed and headroom in relation to your kids bunk bed standing and sitting height. It is possible to purchase a shorter bunk bed to accommodate children younger than them while older kids bunk beds may prefer a higher setup.

Bunk beds for kids usually come in two different configurations including twin-overtwin and full-overfull. Both are excellent options to accommodate multiple children in one room. Some bunks also include the option of a trundle bed for more guests during sleepovers. If your children are young, consider a low bunk to ensure that the bunk at the bottom is not more than 50 inches from the ground. This will stop children from falling out of bed, which can be a risk to their safety.

Another aspect to consider is the amount of clearance between the top bunk and the guardrails. The CPSC recommends that the height of the top bunk mattress to be no more than 5 inches higher than the guardrail. This will stop your children from slipping out of bed in the middle night and crashing into the guardrails. This could lead to entrapment, or even a fall.

The best bunk beds for kids are built with sturdy materials and meet CPSC safety standards, according to Ganjian. You should also look at the structure of each bed to make sure it's constructed from high-quality wood and isn't flimsy or unstable.

Safety

A bunk bed can be an exciting and fun addition to a child's room however, it can be dangerous if it isn't properly constructed or used. Bunk bed-related injuries can occur at any age however they're most likely to happen to kids under six. It is crucial to adhere to the safety and assembly instructions and use the correct mattress size, and set up the bunk beds in a way they aren't in conflict with windows, heaters or hanging lights. It is also an excellent idea to check the bunk bed for any signs of wear and tear and make repairs as required.

The height of the top bunk should be kept to a maximum of four feet. There should be a guardrail on both sides of the bed. The space between the guardrails should be no wider than 3 1/2 inches to prevent the risk of suffocation, and to make sure that your child isn't able to roll under the guardrail while sleeping. The mattress at the bottom should be supported by wires or slats that are directly beneath the bunk and secured securely at both ends to prevent a gap where your child could fall through.

The ladders and stairs must be securely attached to bunk beds and provide a safe way to get to the top level. Make sure the ladder is not near any hazards and that your children know to use it solely to climb into bed, not to be used as a play area. Avoid rough play on the bunks, as this can compromise their stability.

There is no specific age at that children are considered to be too old for bunk beds, however many experts suggest that kids shouldn't 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 about your child's capacity to climb on the top bunk, think about an adult-sized or twin bunk.

Style

Bunk beds are a great way for kids to share space with their siblings and maximize their space. They're also a great method to foster teamwork among young children and make sleepovers more enjoyable for everyone involved. Bunks with desks are ideal for teenagers and older kids because they combine the study and sleeping furniture into one. Bunks with stairs or ladders allow climbing up to the top bed more secure and easy for kids of all age groups. You can customize your bed by choosing the size, style and other features that you want.

The type of mattress you choose will determine the level of comfort your bunk bed will feel. At Slumberland, we offer an array of premium mattresses for all kinds of bunk beds. We offer innerspring, hybrid memory foam, and various other types of mattresses in all sizes.

Other design features to think about include stairs and ladders, safety rails, and extra storage options. Some bunk beds have ladders that connect along the side, while others have stairs built into the frame. Staircases are a good option for teens and older children because they are more secure than standard ladders and have a sleek, modern look.

You can also customize your bunk beds by choosing the color scheme that best matches the character of your children or the style of your bathroom. Some bunk beds are finished in white, while others are made in dark cherry wood or natural wood. If you're buying a wooden bunk bed you can paint it to match your kids room or opt for stain to maintain the natural appearance.

You can add a personal accent to your bunk beds by investing in decorative lighting that complements the theme or style. You can mount recessed lights in the ceiling, for instance, to provide ample illumination without taking up the floor space. If you're using a metal or wood bunk bed you can also include swag lighting hanging from the ceiling and offers a softer light.

Stores

The most distinctive feature of bunk beds is their ability to increase the space in your child's bedroom by stacking two beds over the other. These beds can be stacked for the duration of time your children are young or until they reach tweenhood, or they can be divided to create separate bed frames. This is ideal for families that move frequently or have a small house.

These beds are available 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 configured with different heights with some featuring an incline ladder that is set at an angle for easy climbing or a staircase with built-in drawers to allow for storage out of sight.

Another thing to take into consideration when choosing a bunk bed is its structure, with certain models combining medium-density fiberboard and kiln-dried hardwood. The former is more affordable and has modern appearance, but the latter can be more durable and strong.

Bunks with trundle beds can be an excellent option for sleepovers. Some have the capacity to add an additional trundle bed in another configuration. These beds can comfortably accommodate three children or adults and are ideal for a shared room that fosters friendships and family bonds while making the best utilization of space.

The last element to consider when deciding on the right bunk bed is design and color, with crisp whites, neutral grays, and muted clay finishes providing an array of design options that can play nicely with any decor for bedrooms. A clean white bunk is a great choice for colorful, cottage or coastal bedrooms. A neutral gray or a clay finish can work with any color scheme as your child gets older.

While the price of a bunk bed will differ, the majority of models have 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 durable enough to last through childhood and beyond.
