So you've decided that you want to get your kid(s) a bunk bed or a loft bed. If there was one thing that every child wants, it would be a bunk bed or a loft bed. But you realize you know nothing about
bunk beds nor
loft beds much less how to pick a good one. Follow these recommendations when choosing a safe & secure, and playful bunk bed:
• First of all sit on the bottom bunk of the bunk bed to make sure it can hold your weight and also make sure your head can clear the top bunk.
• Shake the bunk bed vigorously to ensure it maintains stability.
• Ask the dealer if the bunk bed or loft bed meet the American Society of Testing Standards safety standards.
• Check the bunk bed guard rails, usually on the top bunk, to see if they run all the way around the bed and make sure they are not loose.
• Look at the bottom bunk to make sure there are support slats under the bottom bunk mattress to provide support. Also, make sure the mattress fits snugly into the bunks frame, there should be very little gap between all the sides of the mattress and the bunks frame.
• Make sure all the corners and the edges are smooth and clean.
• Ensure the ladder is sturdy and easy for your children to climb safely.
Overall, just make sure you use good common sense when selecting a bunk bed or loft bed for you children. Remember kids love to jump on beds and climb on beds so safety should be the first thing on your mind. After you are convinced that the bunk bed or loft bed is safe you can then proceed to selecting the other details such as wood type, stain color and sizes.
