It is not so easy to choose a sleeping place for teenagers. A bed in the shape of a toy will no longer suit them, so it is necessary to choose a more "serious" model, the main requirements for which are comfort and safety. Today, for mature family members, this sleeping piece of furniture is produced in various shapes and designs: a loft bed, a podium, a mini sofa. It remains only to choose the one that the teenager himself will like.

Many manufacturers suggest considering the option of a model with sides.

Teenage beds with sides

Many children, and far from being infants, sleep quite restlessly, tossing and turning in their sleep, and some of them may even jump on a comfortable mattress before that, so it is very important to take care of the bumpers on the bed, which will ensure the child's safety and protect him from falling.

The main difference between such a model and a baby bed is its almost adult size. It is equally comfortable for both boys and girls. But this does not mean that a teenager's place to sleep should be strict and dull. No, it can be bright colors and interesting designs. And its main advantage is that it will easily become a real adult when a teenager gets older. This is achieved thanks to the smart design of the model.

Advantages

To opt for a bed with a side, you can see a number of obvious advantages that it has.

  • The sides will protect the child from falling from the bed.
  • Bumpers will create the illusion of a personal space for a teenager, where he can be alone with himself, think over various situations, and just take a break from the moral teachings of adults. For girls, you can even consider installing a special canopy. Then young ladies can imagine themselves as heroines of an adventure novel.
  • During cold winter nights, it is the presence of side rails that can keep the warmth in a child's cozy bed.
  • Bumpers often have a functional load - for example, you can hang a towel or a bathrobe on them. Made in the form of a shelf, they can become a place where you can put your phone or tablet at night.
  • The presence of fences will be an excellent "fixer" for the mattress and blankets that are always slipping in the child.
  • If the child is not so many years old, then developing organizers or favorite toys can be attached to the side shelves.

disadvantages

In addition to the advantages, the model with side rails also has a number of minor drawbacks that attentive parents should pay attention to when buying.

  • If the sides are hard, then there is a possibility of injury to the child's hand or head: some children may wave their arms in their sleep, so it is better to take care of a special material on the sides to soften the possibility of an impact.
  • Unstable side devices can be a source of danger - they are made of low-quality material, they can break and injure a teenager.
  • It is better to abandon the sides of the rack structure so that the child's hand does not fall into the gap between them.

The disadvantages listed above can be easily eliminated with a careful purchase choice.

Types of sides

Manufacturers of the furniture industry today offer many models with sides, therefore you need to carefully consider which one is right for your child.

  • Hard sides are suitable for children from 3 years old, however, they must be upholstered with special soft material: jacquard, velor, and in some versions, even eco-leather.Models with soft sides are ideal for energetic boys and dreamy girls.
  • The height of the fences should be at least 20 cm higher than the mattress, because the higher the board, the less risk that the child will climb over them in a dream.
  • In some cases, such fences can only be located at the headboard, and in others, around the entire circumference of the bed.
  • Models with removable sides are very convenient - in the future they can be removed, and the baby bed will turn into a regular adult model.

Design options

Any teenage bed, ideally, should be equipped with various "useful" devices: lockers, drawers. There are options for models even with a chest of drawers - it is usually located on the side or at the head of the bed. It is very convenient: you can put children's clothes, bedding sets, even toys there. This bed fits perfectly into any room, saving square meters. If desired, it can even replace a children's wardrobe.

Models with drawers, the average size of which is 40x70 cm, presuppose the presence of more than one row: built-in under the child's bed, they will become a very convenient device for storing the necessary things in the same way.

Dimensions (edit)

Usually, the size of a teenage bed practically coincides with the size of an adult model: the length is almost 1m 90cm. The width can be small, up to 80 cm, but those who buy it "for growth" can look for a model with a width of 90 cm. Today it is possible to purchase a custom-made bed up to 1m 20 cm wide.

What you need to pay attention to

A teenager should love his place to sleep, be happy to be located on his "personal" territory, feeling coziness and comfort.

In order for the bed to fully meet all the necessary requirements, you need to pay attention to the following points when buying.

  • Wooden beds, especially pine ones, are environmentally friendly and will last for many years.
  • It is advisable to choose the bottom of the model with a rack and pinion, then it will "breathe" and the teenager will be much more comfortable in it.
  • The quality of the material must be confirmed by certificates that must be checked with the seller.
  • The sides should be rounded, without sharp corners, and all the details should be perfectly matched to each other.
  • The price of a quality bed cannot be "surprisingly" low, but it is better not to save on the child's health.
  • Usually, beds for a teenager are sold without a mattress, so it is better to buy an orthopedic one in it - it is perfect for the spine of a growing child.
  • You should choose from trusted manufacturers. The Italian firm Baby Italia Dolly, the Russian manufacturers Feya, Antel and Krasnaya Zvezda have proven themselves well. Furniture from these companies is durable, comfortable and visually pleasing.

When choosing a bed suitable for a child, do not forget about modern fashion trends. The model can be ordered with a combination of leather, textile, or mixed structures.
