Bunk beds are a piece of furniture found in any room shared by two children. I think everyone knows what they look like, but probably not everyone knows that different types of beds can be found on the market. I will tell you in this article what some of these categories are and I will also share some details about each of them.

The classic bunk bed that consists of two bunk beds, one on top of the other, the only difference between them (if it is the case) being the size of the mattress; there are different combinations, double mattresses on the upper bunk and one full size for the lower bunk and the other way around; Also, these combinations may vary.

The futon bunk consists of a futon at the bottom and a regular bunk at the top. During the day, the futon can be used as a sofa to watch TV, read or just hang out.

Another category is the L-shaped bunk beds. If saving space in the room is not your main concern, you can use this type of beds. The top bed is placed at a right angle to the bottom one and that can completely change the look of the room. The space below the top bunk can be used as a desk or play corner.

High bunks are specially designed so that the height between the bed and the ground is fairly even. They do not have a lower bunk, so the space under the bed can be used, like the L-shaped one, for a desk, storage area or play area. These types of children’s beds are probably the most efficient when it comes to saving space in the room.

Themed bunk beds are the perfect way to make your child’s room fun and exciting. There are many ways to modify a bed yourself and transform it into a pirate ship, racing car, spaceship, tree house, elephant and many more, but you can easily buy it at a furniture store.

The triple bunk consists, as the title says, of 3 bunks one on top of the other.

Junior lofts are suitable for younger children, because they are lower to the ground. They are also quite similar to themed ones, because they have some fun features, like tents or slides.

So, these are the main categories that you can find in the market. Also, do not forget about the safety measures that you must respect when buying and letting your children use such a piece of furniture.
