This wood bunk bed is available in a variety of finishes. Select white for a coastal or cottage look, or clay and gray to create a versatile contemporary space. The ladders are also angled that take up less space than straight ones.

Bunk beds can make bedrooms fun, exciting and cool. They are great for kids who share rooms with siblings or for one child who invites friends to a sleepover. The most significant benefit is that they free up space. A standard bunk bed doubles (or triples) the amount of sleeping space a room can accommodate while maintaining the same footprint on the floor as a single twin or full-sized mattress.
While some bunk beds are set up in a conventional twin-over-twin layout, others are arranged in more imaginative ways. For example, some feature stairs that lead to the bed above, while others are designed as an L-shaped unit with two beds close to one another. This lets kids sleep in pairs, yet provides plenty of open space for toys, books and other items which is ideal for smaller rooms.
Contrary to the traditional metal bunk bed, this version made of wood is strong and stylish, a combination that stands the time. The clean lines, curved edges and contrasting natural wood finish give it a contemporary appeal while also making the room feel more spacious. The ladder can be positioned on either side of the bed to meet your needs.
Another advantage of this bunk bed is that it's GREENGUARD GOLD Certified1 for low chemical emissions into the atmosphere which creates an environment that is more healthy to sleep and play. Parents will also appreciate the fact that this bunk bed utilizes only spruce, plywood, and medium-density fiberboard, which are all made of Greenguard Gold-certified, compliant TSCA materials.
Katie Siegel, the lead designer at Rumor Designs, says that when you are choosing a bunk bed for your child take into consideration the size of your room. It is important to ensure that the dimensions of the bunk bed meet the dimensions of your room, or they may look too bulky and out of balance. It is also important to determine if your ceilings are tall enough to accommodate an elevated mattress.
Consider the way your children will go up and down from their bunks. Certain models come with an ordinary ladder, while others come with an additional stairs that have deep steps that allow children to safely climb up and down. This is especially important if you plan to let older children use the top bunk on their own.
In addition to traditional twin-over-twin bunk beds, there are also a few models that sleep three people, which is ideal for families with larger numbers or who love hosting frequent sleepovers. This three-person Harriet Bee bunk bed is a great option for smaller rooms. It's also reasonably priced. The bed can be divided into two beds if your children don't require the extra space for sleeping.
