Buy Bunk Beds
There’s no denying it – kids love bunk beds. However, bunk beds aren’t just appealing to kids; from students to loft dwellers like them too because they’re great space-savers; they’re economical since they are essentially two beds in one that don’t require box springs; and they’re very practical.
Before You Buy Bunk Beds
How much space do you have to work with do you need a twin bunk bed or full bunk beds? What shape is the room? How high is the ceiling? Knowing the answers to these questions will help you determine what size, shape, and configuration of bunk bed you will have room for.
Decide what types of features your bunk bed will require. If you would like a metal bunk bed, pine wood bunk bed. You may already have a frame but need a bunk bed mattress.
In addition to space considerations, choosing a bunk bed with the right specifications is very important. You might really love the L-shaped bunk bed complete with matching built-in desks, but if the shape of the room is long and narrow, the loft bunk bed might not fit. To select a bunk bed that will fit the space, not just physically but esthetically as well, the bunk bed should proportionately fill the space vertically and horizontally.
Bunk Bed Sets
Particularly if you’re decorating your room from scratch, buying a bunk bed set is an easy and economical solution. It’s also an ideal way to address specific issues, such as clutter, no space in the room for a much needed desk or someplace for a friend to sleepover, since if you need to purchase under-bed storage or a trundle bed, it is better to do so as part of a package deal.
Some popular types of bunk beds and bunk bed configurations are:
- Twin over twin bunk beds is the bunk bed configuration you are probably most familiar with, two twin bunk beds placed one above the other. Twin over twin bunk bed is also known as standard. Many manufacturers design their units so that they can be used as a standard bunk bed or separated into two freestanding beds. This give you a number of options should your children outgrow the bunk bed phase or they get rooms of their own.
- Twin over full bunk bed - has a twin bed on the top with a full or double size bottom bunk. It is a great sleeping solution if one child is three to five years older than the other child or if one sibling needs more room.
- The full over full bunk beds configuration maximizes the room’s sleeping capacity with two full size beds, one above the other. Great for teen sleepovers.
- Loft bunk beds are basically a top bunk with space beneath, allowing you and you child to add another bed, a desk, a dresser or any combination that will transform the room into a comfortable, functional and relaxing space. Some types of t-shaped loft beds are lower than standard loft bunk beds, which makes them ideal for rooms that are awkwardly shaped or have low ceilings. However, depending on its size and shape, a loft bunk bed can also take up the most space of the other kinds of bunk beds available.
- Futon bunk beds typically have a twin top bunk and a futon sofa on the bottom. A futon bunk bed is a great option for a child not sharing the room with a sibling but would like a bunk bed. It makes room for sleepovers as well as being an ideal gathering place to spend with friends.
- A triple bunk bed has two top bunks, usually in an L-shaped configuration and a bottom bunk. The space beneath the second top bunk is free space – a great place for a computer desk, a dresser, bookcase or beanbag chair.
Bunk Bed Feature
Some popular features that make decorating with bunk beds sets even more functional and versatile are:
- Under-bed storage drawers are a convenient way to store clothes, extra bedding, and kid stuff. Some types of bunk beds include a captain’s bed box, which is essentially a twin bed on top of a set of drawers.
- Especially when buying loft bunk bed sets, many manufacturers offer freestanding dressers, chests of drawers, one or two nightstands and mirrors. This is a convenient and easy way to decorate a child’s room, particularly when children are sharing.
