Size

Size is a key factor to consider when shopping for a double bunk bed. Many children grow rapidly, and you may need to purchase a brand new bunk bed prior to them outgrowing the one you have. When you are choosing a bunk bed, you should also consider the kind of mattress.

Twin over twin bunk beds are the most popular bunk bed configurations. They feature two twin-sized beds stacked on top of each other and are great for siblings sharing a room. Twin over twin bunks can accommodate standard twin mattresses measuring 39 inches wide and 75 inches long. You can consider twin XL mattresses if you desire a more luxurious bed. These mattresses are five inches taller than the normal twins. They're great for teens college students, as well as adults.

Full-size mattresses are placed on the bottom bunks of full-over-full double bunk bed with desk bunk beds. This is perfect for adults and children who are taller. The full double bunk bed with desk-size mattress measures 54 inches wide and 75 inches long. A lot of these beds feature a trundle that can be pulled out from underneath the bed, providing an additional sleeping space for guests.

Some bunk bed sets include lofts with twin-sized beds that can be split into separate standalone beds. This is a great option for those who want to secure the bunk bed by separating the beds into lower and upper or if your children decide to switch rooms in the near future.

You can also find bunk beds that don't require foundation or box springs because the frame of these bunks raises the mattress. This is a great choice for families on a tight budget, as it removes the necessity for foundations or box springs.

The number of people you must sleep with on your bunk bed will also determine the frame and mattress. Larger rooms can accommodate triple bunk beds or L-shaped bunk beds. Smaller rooms are more for twin over full or full over twin layout.

Style

A bunk bed with two mattresses can accommodate adults or children, based on the layout you select. The standard bunk beds are stacked on one another, with the top bed accessed by a ladder. This arrangement is great for rooms with limited space, and makes the room more practical. Another alternative is a futon bunk that is designed to look like a standard bunk but with an asymmetrical futon couch that converts to a bed. The bunk bed can accommodate up to four people simultaneously and is a great option for families with teenagers or college students.

If you're looking for extra storage for your bunk bed, look for a set with drawers for clothes and other things. Some sets include desks that are built-in and a wooden panel on the side of the staircase which can be used as a unique space to hang artwork or other decor. Bunk beds that have desks are great for children's bedrooms, but they can be used in a guest room or as a principal bedroom for older kids and teens.

The color of the bunk bed can influence the overall style of your space. A white bunk bed, for instance can give the impression of lightness and airiness, while a bunk bed constructed from dark wood will give an authentic or traditional vibe. If you are planning to put a bunk bed in a bedroom shared by children choose an appropriate paint finish to match your furniture pieces. Bunk beds are a great way to enhance the nautical theme.

A bunk bed with twin beds that have an unassuming stone finish can be easily upgraded by adding a few throw pillows of different hues.
