One thing that you can never have enough of in your kids bedroom is space and futon bunk beds can help get you more space with a cool new look.
These beds come in a cool style which has a bed on the top and a bottom piece that converts into a couch. This allows for a sitting room type of atmosphere in the bedroom but also extra room for another child to sleep over. Some of them even come with drawers on the bottom which gives you even more added storage.

These bunk beds come in a large variety of styles and materials and are the perfect way to add more space in your kids bedroom as well as offer them a bit more of a sophisticated look.
When you're shopping for futon bunk beds, the first thing you want to think about is safety. While these beds are perfect for maximizing your space, like any other type of bunk bed, they do come with a certain amount of risk and although a lot of them have built-in safety features you probably want to be aware of the few safety issues when picking out and putting together your bunk bed.
One thing you want to be sure to do is buy your bed from someone who sells quality furniture so that you know it'll be a good sturdy piece that will last a long time and not fall apart. Look for guard rails on the top bunk in a ladder that is attached permanently to the frame of the bed. When you get your bed home, it's important to assemble it specifically to the instructions to be sure that it is set up properly and no accidents will happen.
Another thing to consider with your futon bed is the aesthetics. Your kids bedroom may be decorated in a certain theme or, if it isn't you can use the bunk bed as an inspirational piece for the entire room. Either way you want to be sure to choose the right combination of fabric, pattern, and frame material. Bunk beds come in wood and metal frames in different styles so you want to pick one out that is suitable for your kids room. You can also get the mattresses and mattress covers in different designs so you should be able to find something that will match in most any room.
While many people consider a wooden futon bunk bed to be more sturdy this is not necessarily the case and a wooden bed will be more clunky and may take up more space in an already small room. The metal beds can be just as sturdy and will give the room more of a spacious feel. Of course, your first priority should be to make sure that the bed has all of the features needed for safe use.
