Kids love bunk beds. If you had a sibling (or a live-in cousin or something like that), you either had bunk beds as a kid and loved them or you didn’t have bunk beds and everyday you wish you did. Simply, bunk beds are an excellent solution for families looking to maximize limited space. And they make great forts. So whether you're shopping for a simple twin-over-twin design or you want a more elaborate configuration with some built-in storage options, we got you covered!
Bunk beds are tremendously space-efficient. They can free up more than half of a bedroom for floor space that can then be used for anything from playing with toys to a great spot to try the new VR games. Or maybe that’s where the study desk goes? Or the drum set? The choices are up to you, but there are many and they can’t exist without getting that extra space in the bedroom first.
Safety is a huge concern for parents shopping for bunk beds. Thankfully, modern bunk beds are designed with key safety features such as sturdy guardrails on the top bunk, non-slip ladders, and some pretty darn durable construction to prevent accidents. It’s none-the-less recommended that the top bunk is reserved for children over the age of six (check the manual) to minimize the risk of falls.
Bunk beds come in various styles to suit different needs and preferences. The classic twin-over-twin is perfect for younger siblings sharing a room, while twin-over-full bunk beds provide extra space for an older child (or accommodate guests during sleepovers). These are also found commonly in vacation rentals, allowing for a smaller adult to sleep below and an older child above. Many bunk beds also include additional features such as built-in desks, drawers, and shelves, which further enhances their functionality and/or storage abilities.
Convertible bunk beds are another option to consider. This type of bunk bed can be separated into individual twin beds when the time comes, making them adaptable as your children grow and their needs (or rooms) change.
You’ll want to consider the age and size of your children, as well as the needs, the space in the bedroom, and even the clearance from the ceiling to the top bunk. Can the bed grow with your children or will it be outdated in the short years ahead? Also, remember that while your daughter loves unicorns this year, she may not want anything to do with them next year.
