Mid Sleeper Bunk Bed
A mid-sleeper can be a great choice for those who have rooms with lower ceilings or are smaller. They can provide younger children with an enjoyable and practical alternative to a traditional single bed, whilst older children can utilize the space underneath for study and storage.
Mid and high sleepers are suitable for children up to six. However, we suggest that they establish their sleeping habits prior to that.
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 have plenty of storage space underneath that can be used as an office or play area. They have enough headroom to allow children to climb up and down effortlessly. Many of our models can be equipped with a trundle bed or a chair bed, which allows you to transform your child's loft into an extra sleeping area when visiting friends.
A key appeal of both mid and high sleeper beds is their multi-functional furniture solutions, providing your children a place to work, study and relax at home. This helps them get an adequate night's rest and promotes an active life by providing them with everything they need all in one place.
You can choose from a range of options, including couches and pull-out chairs to fit your child's room and personal tastes. A majority of our models come with a bookcase or shelving, making it easy for them to keep their books and other items organised. Some models come with desks. This is a great choice for those who wish to develop their own study habits, and also to work at their own pace in a space that is exclusively theirs.
It is important to choose the best mattress for your child. For this reason, we recommend purchasing a high-quality foam mattress that is specifically designed for your child's bed. Alternatively, you can use an existing mattress provided it's not more than 15cm thick. We have a wide selection of mattresses for both high and mid sleeper bunk beds.
Style
As its name suggests, the mid-sleeper bunk bed is situated at a middle height with the sleeping area being accessible via a ladder or staircase. It's a fantastic option for children who are over 6 years old old as it takes storage and sleeping to new levels allowing the top bunk to be used for play or study.
The space beneath is perfect for a variety of fun features like a bookcase, desk or sofa, so it's the ideal choice for children who are looking to build an inviting den or playroom. It's also a great option for bedrooms with small spaces as it maximises the floor space, without sacrificing the height of the room's ceiling.
With the assistance of clever extension kits, some children's mid-sleeper bunk beds can be converted to smaller formats as a single bed. This is a great choice for older children that may need more space or privacy from their younger brothers and sisters. Another option is the high sleeper, which is elevated higher, with the mattress being reached via a ladder or a staircase and is typically preferred by teenagers and preteens because it's more mature and can be put into an attic or loft space.
High and mid sleeper bunk beds are great for kids who love to play games and create. They can make their own gaming area, secret den or even a cozy retreat with curtains and fairy lights. Many mid sleeper beds feature the trundle which can be pulled out to transform the bed into an awesome sleepover bed. This is great for parties and friends visiting on weekends!
You can pick the high or mid-sleeper bunk bed, or even a cabin-style bed. Your child will love an inviting and spacious space to sleep in. There's something thrilling about the feeling of adventure that comes with climbing up and down a staircase or ladder into a comfortable and relaxing space that children love and this is definitely the best bed for children!
Safety
Mid sleepers or cabin beds can be a great option for reducing space however safety precautions are essential. This means that you must ensure that the ladders are strong and safe to use, as well as teaching children how to climb up and down them correctly, and stressing that the top bunk isn't for playing. You may also want to put a light clip on the ladder to make it more visible in the dark.
Some beds come with a guardrail built into the frame. This can be an additional safety feature for children. This is especially useful in small bedrooms, where a bunk bed is difficult to maneuver without risking falling over furniture or other objects in the room.
It is essential to avoid placing the bed too close to blinds (especially cords) heaters, blinds, or ceiling fans. If the bed is too close to the wall, it could result in entrapment or serious injuries. To reduce the risk, a mid-sleeper bed must be at minimum 3.5 inches from the wall.
Another vital safety point is to avoid hanging anything from the guard rails on the top bunk. If a child gets caught in scarves, belts or similar items, they could strangle them. This can happen very quickly particularly when children are sleeping.
Choose a mid-sleeper cabin bed with rails that are full length on both sides to provide an extra barrier for your children. Don't rely solely on the wall as a safety barrier. Children could be trapped between the mattress and wall, which can be fatal.
Also, be sure to follow the assembly instructions thoroughly and check every connect and screw regularly to ensure that the bed is solid and doesn't move. Consult a professional should you be unsure. If you want to ensure that your bunk bed lasts for a long time, it is best to always be on the safe side.
