Children’s Bunk Beds – Space Savers

There are very many different types of bunk beds for children. These vary in price depending on various factors such as quality, the design, durability and so on. The economy models are the least expensive that one will come across. Some designs will even have other built in additions like cupboards, shelves, wardrobes and other flashy things that children like. So what do you go for as a parent in selecting the best bed for your child?

Always cut your coat according to your size and with bunk beds, your size here is your budget. Don’t be overtaken by the additional frills that are put on some bank beds if your budget cannot live up to the same. And by budgeting we are not only talking about the price of the bunk bed, but its size as well in relation to the available space. Bigger bunk beds are a bit expensive and will require houses with large children’s rooms. However, this does not necessarily mean that you go for the poor quality options simply because you want to cut down on your budget heavily. Simply opt for functional and non flashy designs.

Closely related to price is safety. In fact with children’s beds, one cannot easily separate the two. For children, pay particular attention to the top bunk in that there should be safety rails, preferably on all the four sides for safety measures. This prevents them from falling when they roll on the beds. The ladder should also be easy to climb. The whole bed should be sturdy enough and not sway with the children’s weight.

The other factor to consider is the room space. This consideration matters a lot especially when buying the flashy beds. These types normally tend to take a lot of space and as such, one should be careful when buying them, especially when there are other furniture in the room. Children need space and when these bunk beds clog up their rooms, it becomes unbearable for them. However, if there are no other furniture in the children’s bedroom such as wardrobes and shelves, and the room is small, then buying beds that have these features built in will be a wise decision as far as space is concerned. Go for the ones that have these additions in advantageous places like under the bed and not besides it. If you have more than one child, opt for the bunk beds with two or more beds. This is particularly the case if your limitation is floor space.
