One of the types of beds, which is very popular recently, is a two-tier model. It will not only allow you to economically manage the space in the nursery, but also serve as a stylish piece of furniture.

By type of design, all beds are divided into single and two-level. Of course, a bunk bed would be an excellent option if the family has two or more children. This model allows you to comfortably accommodate two kids and significantly saves space. The vacated space can be used for games or to organize a comfortable working area for children.

Of course, all children like these models of beds. After all, they are a place of games, allow fantasy to develop and increase creativity.In addition, 2-tier beds will serve as a good simulator for the development of fitness in children. If there is one child in the family, then such a bed would also be quite appropriate. The upper tier can be used for sleeping, and at the bottom you can easily organize the workspace.

In addition to the indisputable advantages of bunk beds, there are a large number of disadvantages. It is worth paying attention to the environmental and functional safety of the structure. Crib mounts must be firmly fixed, which will contribute to the protection against loosening. Sleeping room on the second tier should be protected by special bumpers that will not allow the child to fall in a dream. The standard height of such sides is thirty or thirty five centimeters. It is worth paying attention to the distance between the slats, you can not allow the child’s hands or feet to get stuck. However, too long distances can provoke a child to try to crawl through them.

Any two-level bed has an important aspect - the presence of the stairs. It must be reliable and secure. The steps of the ladder should be of such width that the main part of the child’s foot would fit on it.It is important to consider the distance between the beds from each other, and the distance of the upper tier to the ceiling.

It is quite difficult to fill the bed for a child on the second floor. Certain difficulties may arise for parents, for example, when changing clothes and wet cleaning the frame. Also, this model is slightly difficult to read and review images. The bed has a rather large weight and dimensions. Some experts in the field of psychology believe that the child sleeping below is under psychological pressure. He may experience anxiety and domination of the child who sleeps at the top.
