Both mid and high sleepers are suitable for children aged six years and above However, we suggest that your child be established in their sleeping habits before using this kind of bed.
Size
They are smaller than bunk beds with high sleepers and are a great option for bedrooms with smaller rooms and kids who are young. They have plenty of storage space underneath which can be used as a desk or play space. They also have plenty of headroom, which allows children to climb up and down easily. Many of our models can be equipped with a trundle bed or chair bed, allowing you to transform your child's loft into an additional sleeping area when visiting friends.
A key appeal of both mid and high sleeper beds is their multi-functional furniture solutions that give your children a place to study, work and unwind at home. This helps them get an excellent night's sleep and promotes a healthy lifestyle by giving them everything they need all in one place.
You can pick from a variety of choices, including sofas and chairs that can be pulled out to suit the room and preferences of your child. Our models come with a bookcase or shelving to help keep their books and belongings in order. Some models have desks. This is an ideal option for those looking to establish their own study habits, and work at their own pace in a space that is exclusively theirs.
The selection of a mattress is a vital consideration in order to make sure it's the ideal size for your child's. For this reason, we suggest investing in a top quality foam mattress specifically made for the bed of your child. You can also use 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 situated at a middle height with the sleeping space accessed via a ladder or a staircase. It's a great option for children who are older than 6 years, as it permits the top bunk to function as a study or play area.
The space below is perfect to accommodate a variety of features like a bookcase, desk or sofa, making it the ideal choice for children who want to create an inviting den or playroom. It's also a great choice for small bedrooms as it maximises the floor space without compromising the height of the room's ceiling.
With the help of clever extension kits, certain bunk beds for children can be converted to smaller formats like one bed. This is a great choice for older children who want more space or privacy from younger brothers and sisters. There are other options, such as a high sleeper which is elevated higher with the mattress accessible by a ladder or a stairwell and is typically preferred by teenagers and preteens as it's more mature and can be integrated into a loft or attic space.
High and mid sleeper bunk beds are perfect for kids who love to play games and think about. They can create their own gaming area, secret den, or even a cosy retreat with curtains and fairy lights. Many mid sleeper bunk beds also feature a trundle drawer that can be pulled out and instantly transforms the bed into a cool sleepover bed - ideal for parties or friends visiting at weekends!
If you choose a mid or high sleeper bunk bed, or even a cabin bed your child is guaranteed to get a fantastic night's sleep in a spacious and comfortable setting. Children love the adventure of climbing and down ladders or stairs to get into a cozy and relaxing space. This is the ultimate bed for children!
Safety
Mid sleepers or cabin beds can be an ideal space-saving solution, but safety precautions are essential. This means making sure the ladders are safe and sturdy to use, and teaching youngsters on how to climb them up and down properly, and ensuring that the top bunk is not for playing. Install a clip-on light on the ladder to ensure that it is visible at night.
Some beds have a safety rail integrated into the frame, which can add an extra layer of protection for children. This is especially useful for bedrooms with small spaces, as a bunk bed can be difficult to navigate without risking falling over furniture or other objects in the room.
It's also important not to put the bed too close to blinds (especially cords) windows, blinds, heaters or ceiling fans. If the bed is placed too close to the wall, it could cause entrapment and severe injuries. A mid sleeper or a cabin bed should be at minimum 3.5" away from the wall to minimize the risk.
Another vital safety point is to keep everything from the guard rails on the top bunk. Belts, scarves and similar items could strangle a child if they get caught in them. This can happen very quickly and especially during the time when children are sleeping.
Look for a mid-sleeper or cabin bed with rails that are full length on each side to provide an additional barrier for your children. Don't just rely on the wall as an obstacle to safety. Children can get trapped between the mattress and wall, which can be fatal.
Also, be sure to follow the assembly instructions thoroughly and inspect all connects and screws regularly to ensure that the bed is solid and doesn't move. If you're unsure, ask an expert for help. A solidly constructed bunk bed will last for a long time but it's important to stay on the safe side and never to cut corners when it comes to safety.
Stores
