Mid Sleeper Bunk Bed
A mid-sleeper is ideal option for those who have lower ceilings and smaller bedrooms. They offer younger children an exciting and practical alternative to a standard single bed, while older children can use the space beneath for studying and storage.
Mid and high sleepers are suitable for children up to six. We recommend that they establish their sleeping habits before they start.
Size
Mid sleeper bunk beds are lower to the ground than high sleepers, and so they're an excellent choice for younger children and those with smaller bedrooms. They're packed with storage space underneath that can be used as an office or play space. They have enough headroom to allow children to climb and fall easily. Many of our models can be equipped with a trundle bed or a chair bed, allowing you to transform your child's loft into an additional sleeping area when visiting friends.
The main benefit of mid and high sleeper beds is that they're multifunctional furniture solutions that give your children a space to study, do homework and relax at home. This will help them rest comfortably and promote a healthy lifestyle.
You can choose from many choices, including sofas and chairs that can be pulled out to match the space and preferences of your child. A majority of our models come with a bookcase or shelves, making it easier for them to keep their books and other items organized. Some models come with desks. This is a great choice for those who wish to create their own study habits, and also to work alone in their dedicated workspace.
Choosing a suitable mattress is a vital consideration, as you'll need to ensure that it's the correct height for your child. We recommend investing in a quality foam mattress that's specifically designed for your child's bed. You can also make use of an existing mattress insofar as it's not more than 15cm thick. We have a variety of mattresses for both mid and high sleeper bunk beds.
Style
As its name suggests the mid sleeper bunk bed is located at a mid-height, with the sleeping area being accessible via a ladder or staircase. It's a great solution for children older than six years old, as it can be used as a top bunk to serve as an area for studying or playing.
It's an excellent option for small bedrooms as it maximises the floor space, without sacrificing the ceiling's height. It's a great option for bedrooms with limited space, as it makes the most of the floor space, without cutting down on ceiling height.
With the assistance of clever extension kits, certain bunk beds for children can be converted into lower designs like one bed. This is a great option for older children who want more space or privacy from their younger siblings. Another option is a high-sleeper bed, which is elevated higher and the mattress can be reached by a ladder or staircase. This style is very popular among teens and preteens as it is more mature and can be easily integrated into loft spaces or an attic.
High and mid sleeper bunk beds are great for kids who love to play games and create. They can make their own gaming zone or secret room, or even a cosy retreat with curtains and fairy lights. Many mid sleeper beds feature an trundle that can be pulled out and instantly transform the bed into a great sleepover bed. This is great for guests and parties on weekends!
No matter if you opt for a high or mid sleeper bunk bed or even a cabin bed your child will be sure to have a great night's sleep in a cosy and comfortable setting. There's something about the feeling of adventure that comes with climbing up and down a ladder or stairs to create a cozy and fun space that children love and this is definitely the best bed for kids!
Safety
Mid sleepers or cabin beds are an ideal space-saving solution However, safety precautions are essential. It's important to make sure that the ladders you choose to use are sturdy and safe, teach your children to climb them safely, and make it clear that the top bunk should not be used as a play area. Install a light clip on the ladder so that it is visible at night.
Some beds have a guardrail built into the frame. This is an additional layer of security for children. This is particularly beneficial in small bedrooms, where bunk beds can be difficult to navigate without putting yourself at risk of falling over furniture or other objects in the room.
It's also important to not position the bed too close to blinds (especially cords) windows, heaters, or ceiling fans. If the bed is placed too close, it could result in entrapment or serious injury. A mid sleeper or a cabin bed should be at least 3.5" away from the wall to minimize this danger.
Another important safety tip is to avoid hanging anything from the railings that guard the top bunk. If a child gets caught in scarves, belts or similar items, they could strangle them. This is particularly a problem when kids are sleeping and can occur in the blink of an eye, which is why it's best to keep these items away from reach.
Look for a mid-sleeper or cabin bed with full-length rails on each side to provide an additional protection for your children. Don't depend on the wall as a railing for your child as a child may be trapped between the mattress and the wall, which could prove dangerous.
Lastly, be sure to follow the assembly instructions thoroughly and examine every connect and screw regularly to ensure that the bed is rock solid and will not move. If you are unsure you're not sure, consult an expert for assistance. If you want to make sure that your bunk bed lasts for a long time it is recommended to be safe.
Storage
The space underneath the mid-sleeper bunk bed could be used both for playing and studying. In fact, many children's mid sleeper beds come with an open desk that is part of the design. This provides your child with their own space to do homework and complete their projects. It helps to maintain a healthy balance between play and work.
Many of our mid sleeper cabin beds have built-in storage drawers, which will help keep your child's bedroom tidy and neater. If you'd like your child to have even more storage options, you can opt for a model that has extra shelves or an armoire. Stompa's European Single Loft Bed with Built-in Desk, and the Louis mid-sleeper cabin beds are two great examples of this type of cabin bed that can be used for practical black metal mid sleeper purposes.
Kids these days have lots of things. This is particularly true if they share a bedroom with siblings, so under-bed storage solutions are essential for any home.
