Children's room is a place where the baby will spend a lot of his time. It is for this reason that it is so important that this room is comfortable at home and quite convenient for various purposes. These characteristics, in turn, will directly depend on the correctly selected pieces of furniture.

A bunk bed with a sofa for babies is one of the most original ideas. This is the best solution for families with 1 baby or large families.

    Advantages and disadvantages

    For oversized dwellings where families with children live, the best way to organize several places to sleep is to buy a special bed with 2 tiers. The first floor of the structure will be represented by a comfortable sofa, and the second floor will be the most comfortable bed for the baby.

    This kind of furniture will allow you to achieve several goals at once:

    • save meters in a small dwelling;
    • will allow you to get a creative design that can become a stylish decor for any room, bring comfort to it.

    The main advantages of a bunk bed with a sofa are:

    • availability of different design options and the ability to choose furniture from various materials;
    • a wide range of models and a variety of colors;
    • wide price range;
    • arrangement of certain zones in space;
    • universal use in different rooms.

    A bunk product with a sofa also has a number of certain disadvantages. These include a certain degree of danger for those who will sleep on the 2nd tier. The models released for babies have special protective devices against accidental falling out.

    This is a completely safe staircase to the 2nd floor, special bumpers. If they are not there, this kind of furniture can be considered unsafe.

    Parents need to understand that the right approach to the selection of this type of furniture for the nursery will reduce to zero the risk of injury to the baby during his sleep.

    Design features

    A room for children can be subdivided into a number of zones, then it will become as equipped as possible. Places for rest, play and sleep should fit here. If the room is not the largest, it will not be possible to place a real bed, a reading sofa and a play area here.

    It is in this case that a bunk bed with a neat sofa will help. In this design, the role of the 1st tier will be played by a comfortable sofa, which can turn into a bed if necessary. Among the variety of modern models, there is always an option for both 1 baby and two children.

    The sofa can exist in 3 positions:

    • folded product;
    • design with a backrest that has a slight tilt;
    • in the form of an already unfolded bed.

    During the daytime, this sofa becomes a seating place, in the evening it can accommodate guests, and at night the sofa turns into a sleeping place. A folded sofa will help save room space, a sofa with a back will allow you to equip 2 sleeping places at once.

    Models with a folding sofa are in much greater demand than sofas that cannot be transformed into a bed.

    According to the type of the provided folding mechanism, such pieces of furniture are divided into several categories.

    • The classic type of mechanism is very easy to operate. To turn the sofa into a place for comfortable dreams, you just need to throw the back and move the seat forward.But the relief line between the reclining back and this seat will be right in the center, and for this reason, it will not be possible to sleep on this product without another mattress.
    • Eurobook - can be folded out quite easily: you just need to move the seat forward, and the back will drop down into the freed up space.
    • Roll-out product: the sofa is mechanically moved forward. The main advantage of this design is the optimal parameters of the sofa when it is folded and the ideal place for dreams when it is unfolded. The sleeping area is low enough for a small child.

    Let's consider several models of such structures.

    • A sofa that does not fold out. Above is a bed, below is a regular sofa. This model will easily perform the functions of 2 zones at once, the simultaneous existence of which will not destroy the interior of the room. But if the parameters of the sofa are significantly large, it can always be used as a comfortable bed, 1 person can sleep on it.
    • A bed where the sofa can be folded out like a eurobook. The bed on the top has a regular look, the sofa is placed below, which can be used as an area for receiving guests. In the evening, the sofa can be folded out into a perfect place to sleep.

    Sizes and shapes

    When choosing a bed in 2 floors, you need to think about what parameters it should have in order to become the most comfortable place for children's sleep. A too large product in a small-sized room will look cumbersome, immediately "knocked out" of the interior of the space. The product can be called convenient if the consumer does not touch the upper tier of the product with his head during operation.

    It is extremely important that the baby does not have a feeling of relaxation in a closed box during dreams. At the same time, the space from the 1st to the 2nd tier should be spacious enough. Ideally, the item to be matched should provide for the regulation of the height of the 2nd tier. This will help to avoid the appearance of fear in the baby.

    The bed on the top floor of the set will become a full-fledged area for comfortable dreams. Modern furniture companies provide a variety of bed sizes for the consumer to choose from, for this reason you can easily choose a two-story product for a baby of any age, any build and height:

    • 90x190 or 80x190 cm are the usual parameters of a baby bed;
    • 90x200 cm - the model is suitable for older children;
    • 150x70 and 160x70 cm - models for the smallest.

    Bunk products can be of various shapes, furniture designers offer very interesting solutions: straight and angular options with lines with asymmetry, geometrically correct and smooth lines, etc.

    On sale you can find sofas in the shape of a beautiful semicircle or even in the form of funny animals.

    Manufacturing materials

    Another important point when buying a bed in 2 tiers for a baby can be considered the material from which this furniture is made.

    The main criteria here are complete safety and environmental friendliness.

    1. The best option in this regard is 100% wood (birch, beech or oak). The least expensive option is pine, which has a very pleasant pine scent. These types of wood are durable, there are no harmful components, and they will last for many decades. However, wood is too bulky, weighs a lot and is quite expensive.
    2. You can choose a structure from a much more pleasant chipboard at the price, but this material will not last very long. In addition, chipboard without special impregnation is exposed to high humidity.
    3. But from the products made of metal it is best to refuse because of the high level of danger in which they differ.

    When choosing a particular model of a 2-tier bed, ask the consultant for a certificate of hygiene and conformity.In this document, the manufacturing company will list all the characteristics of its product and indicate the most important one - the presence of formaldehyde in the composition. As a coating, choose a special varnish that does not cause allergies to any bright paint. Such compositions are the safest and have high wear resistance.

    When choosing a loft bed with a sofa below for the baby's room, you need to focus on the question of how he will rise to the 2nd tier.

    Manufacturers offer 3 types of designs:

    • metal staircase - outwardly it looks more attractive, but at the same time it is quite slippery;
    • a ladder made of wood is the safest and most beautiful option;
    • construction of low bedside tables - great for those kids who are afraid to climb stairs.

    Criterias of choice

    We suggest that you familiarize yourself with the basic parameters that are very important when choosing a two-story bed for a child.

    • Strength. It is best to purchase massive models that will not stagger and will be as stable as possible. If the model is too graceful, it will clearly be unsafe for the baby.
    • Security. The second floor of the product must have a special side of a restriction with a height of at least 30 cm. Such a structure should not have dangerous corners, protruding parts so that children cannot get injured in a dream or during a game. The staircase to the 2nd tier is equipped with strong handrails. The rungs of the steps on the stairs should be frequent so that the kids do not stumble when climbing. It is better to choose a bed option where a ladder is attached from different sides of the product. This will help you choose furniture according to the configuration and size of the room. You can also choose a model with drawers installed under the stairs itself. They can be pulled out, it is convenient to store the child's things in them.
    • Practicality. The most convenient and practical option is the one in which the product can be quickly expanded into 2 regular beds.
    • Design. The bed should be ideal for the interior of the nursery. It is worth giving up too bright colors in decoration, too pretentious elements and non-standard solutions. Such models are often impractical and rather unsafe.
    • Bunk bed models have all sorts of dimensions, for this reason, first it is better to take measurements of the room and accurately determine the installation location of the entire structure. You can also check with the seller - how much space the product will take in the state when it is unfolded.
    • If price will not be the main criterion when choosing a bed, then the quality of the materials from which the furniture body is made and its soft part is upholstered should be put in the first place.
