Kinds

Loft bed

This bed is perfect for both boys and girls under 3 years old. Its advantage is that on the “ground floor” you can create a mini-living room or a creative area for a child.

This sleeping place is perfect for those apartments where space is limited.

Chair-bed

Suitable not only for children, but also for adults. The undoubted advantage is that when assembled it takes up little space and serves as an additional place to sit.

Wide variety of styles and colors.

Pull-out bed for two children

This model is suitable for a family with two small children. It has two sleeping places and is low, which allows kids to climb on it without any problems.

The lower berth can be completely pulled out and used as a separate bed.

Growing beds

Such models are made in such a way that they are able to “grow” in length along with the child. Because of this ability, they can be called durable.

As long as the bed has time to change after the child, there is no need to buy a new one.

Children's beds with drawers

The drawer can be located anywhere: as a rule, in wooden beds there is always space under the mattress for storing things; manufacturers often make drawers. Loft beds are sometimes equipped with a wardrobe or bedside table, which also allows you to store a lot of things there.

Teenage beds

The length of such a sleeping place is more than 160 cm. Models can be wooden or metal, double or single, colored or plain, with a specific design - as the teenager wishes.

Beds for children from three years old

Typically, for this age, furniture with a side or partition is used to prevent the baby from falling. These beds can be low so that children can climb onto them themselves.

And, of course, you can select beds for girls and beds for boys.

Differences will be in colors, decorations and design. Typically, girls use pink with various princesses and dolls, and boys use blue with cars and superheroes.

Model range of beds for children - what they are

Since choosing a bed for a child is not an easy task, you must first decide on the type of bedroom furniture. Manufacturers today offer many options for stock design, construction, materials and sizes. It is also important that the furniture matches the design of the children's room and meets the child's preferences.

Bed for a newborn baby

As a rule, the first baby bed lasts for 3-4 years, and its quality determines how comfortable it will be for a newborn to spend most of his very young life. The baby spends most of his life in a lying position for the first 3 years and it is extremely important to provide him with a proper and comfortable sleeping place. There are several types of beds for little ones.

• Cradle. Just 10 years ago, such a bed was considered the best solution for a baby, but in comparison with modern models, its practicality has noticeably decreased. The fact is that such a bed is only suitable for newborns who are not yet able to sit and stand on their own.
• Wooden furniture with high adjustable sides. An undoubted advantage of such furniture is environmental friendliness. It is also practical, because as the baby grows, the sides can be installed higher so that the baby cannot tip over them. This bed is often equipped with additional drawers for storing baby supplies and linen, as well as removable runners that make it easy to rock the baby to sleep.
• Manege. A practical option for those who want to combine a play area for a baby with a sleeping area. Fabric sides and a low base are the main difference between such models.
• Transformable furniture. A small crib, changing table and side chest of drawers can easily be transformed into a full-fledged teenage bed with additional storage space for bed linen. Such models allow you to save on purchasing a new bed as your child grows older.

Children's beds of classic design

A classic bed is installed in a children's room for both boys and girls. It is ideal for almost any interior. As a rule, such sleeping places are equipped with an orthopedic base - lamellas. If desired, you can choose a child’s bed with sides, headboard and footboard, although they are not considered mandatory design details.

Models can be equipped with a retractable or lifting mechanism that provides access to the interior of the bed. Spacious drawers help save space for storing bed linen and other things.

Curly beds for children

Unusual models of beds in the form of various buildings, vehicles and other things allow the child to find himself in his own “world” while resting. Preschool children love to fantasize, and an unusual bed will only contribute to the development of their creative thinking.

The frame of figured beds is made of metal, wood or chipboard. The external decorative part is often made of colored plastic, instead of which solid wood with carved patterns and elements is sometimes used.

Among the variety of models, you can choose a children's bed for a girl in the form of:

• carriages;
• cars;
• house;
• castle and so on.

For boys, models in the following shapes are suitable:

• racing car;
• ship;
• airplane;
• helicopter;
• trains and other things.

Extendable children's bed for growth

Thanks to the retractable system on the base, the growing bed can be made longer as the child grows. A promising option allows you to save not only space in the nursery, but also money in the future. Sliding models come in 2 types, which are selected for a certain age category of children.

• From birth to 10 years: the initial size of the sleeping place is 120x60 cm, and after complete transformation - 160x70 cm.
• From 3 to 15 years: only the end side extends, which initially has a length of 0.8-0.9 m, and after unfolding the length of the bed doubles.

Models are equipped with built-in drawers and chests of drawers. The retractable mechanism is easily adjusted and fixed to the required length.

Pull-out bunk bed matryoshka for several children

The matryoshka bed does not differ in appearance from the single model. However, its lower part, which visually looks like a built-in chest of drawers, can be pulled out to form an additional sleeping area. Some models are even designed for three children.

Such furniture allows you to save space for installing two or three classic beds. The roller retractable mechanism makes it easy to remove the extra bed, so even a child can cope with the task. Just pull the handle of the lower tier and the additional bed is ready for use.

Children's bed podium - types

The podium bed is also designed to save space in the room. It can be performed in two variations.

• On the podium. The sleeping place is equipped on a stationary, non-displaceable elevation, and the space under it is used as an additional drawer for linen and other things.
• Under the podium. The sleeping place for the day is removed under a constructed platform, which acts as an elevated extension of the room. At night, the bed can be easily pulled back using a roller mechanism. The advantage of this design is the ability to place other pieces of furniture on the podium, which saves space in the room.

Loft bed for children

When thinking about which bed to choose for a child, you should definitely pay attention to the loft bed. The design of such products is ergonomic and practical. A sleeping place is installed in the room at a height of 1.2-1.5 m, to which a ladder is attached. The bed is equipped with additional sides for the safety of the child. The remaining space under the bed can be used to maximum benefit by equipping there:

• work or play area;
• sports section;
• wardrobe.

The main thing when choosing such furniture is to pay special attention to the quality of materials and the design of the frame itself, because the safety of the child depends on this.

Transformable wardrobe beds

The multifunctional design of the wardrobe bed allows you to maximize the space in the room. A pull-out or folding bed can be easily removed using a special spring mechanism and can also be easily folded back.

Today, the range includes transforming wardrobes, which, in addition to the bed, are equipped with desks, built-in sofas and even another additional place for sleeping. This is a great opportunity to save space, leaving your child more free space for games and entertainment.

Material

The material from which Ikea now makes children's furniture varies. These include solids of various trees and iron; beds are often made from chipboard and MDF, and there are even forged models.

Furniture made from MDF and chipboard always lasts a fairly short period of time: after a while such a bed will cease to be beautiful or even break down.

It is generally accepted that furniture made from these materials is durable and can withstand considerable weight. Unfortunately, this is not always what happens. The use of low-quality materials for the manufacture of MDF and chipboards leads to an unreliable sleeping place.

Such beds and any other furniture have a beautiful look. Furniture made from MDF can be covered in different colors, similar to wood, metal or any other materials.

There is an erroneous assumption that structures made of chipboard and MDF can have a negative impact on human internal organs. This is absolutely not true; all products are carefully tested for environmental friendliness.

Wooden furniture is a true classic. She looks solemn.

This bed looks great in any interior, it becomes its basis, all other furniture is matched to the bed. Such beds are suitable for both girls and boys, both small children and adults.

The color of a solid wood bed can only be wood.

Wooden beds are the most comfortable and durable to use. They simply have no equal in this. The only trouble may be a wood beetle, which can “eat” the furniture in two years.

To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to constantly monitor the condition of the sleeping place.

Iron and wrought iron beds are very rare. They look cool, they are very reliable in operation and can serve for a long time.

Manufacturing materials

Made from the following materials:

• Wood (solid).
• Beam.
• Metal.
• Chipboard.

Furniture made from natural wood has an attractive appearance and varied designs. Wooden models are suitable for any interior. Wooden products also have their own peculiarity; they bring warmth and comfort to the interior. In addition, the material is completely environmentally friendly. Among them are: individual pattern, aroma and shade.

Wood furniture is durable and, depending on the type of wood used, has its own characteristics

Made of metal - this is a beautiful, stylish and comfortable solution. Has a high level of hygiene. And due to the fact that they are made from hollow pipes, their weight is relatively small.

Compared to wood, metal is more wear-resistant

Made from chipboard it is inexpensive. Veneer creates the illusion of natural wood. But such designs are very different from wooden options. The corners are straight, there are no patterns or roundings.

When choosing furniture made from chipboard, you need to make sure that safe glue is used.

How to choose a bed from the variety of IKEA catalog?

The best option is to give preference to white when purchasing. Such furniture does not clutter up the space, fits well into any interior and is a unisex option. Another advantage in favor of white is its relevance at any age.

Advice! If frequent cleaning is required, it is better to choose metal products - they are easier to care for.

When you decide to buy a bed for a long time and use it during adolescence, it is better to choose wooden or metal materials.

This bed can be with a sliding frame or in the form of a couch.

An excellent option for creating a design in the room of two children of different ages is a pull-out bed. You can choose models with the same design solution, but different lengths.

If you have a small room, choose compact beds. They can be with roll-out drawers or shelves at the head; sliding and attic types of furniture are also available. The latter save space and create an area for relaxation, games or study in the free space under the bed.

You can buy a couch for a teenage child, because he often has guests and they need somewhere to sit.

If a two-story option is used, the child must be explained that it is impossible to play on top, and he must get down carefully and in the light. In addition, you should equip the second floor with additional lighting, which the child will turn on independently.

When purchasing a mattress, you need to follow the recommendations given by the furniture manufacturer. You should not buy a mattress that is too high. If it hides the sides of the second tier, it can be dangerous.

An important feature of IKEA furniture is the ability to change the design.

For example, you can repaint the furniture in any color you want, change the headboards, turn the bed into a house or castle. For this, it is better to choose wooden products.

A convenient “trick” is a pocket for storing things, which can be attached to the side, because it will fit a book, a tablet or a phone. You can decorate the bed with a canopy or canopy.

If the model you choose does not have drawers, you can add them yourself. Roll-out boxes or baskets of the required height and width are suitable for this.

All of the listed nuances will help diversify the interior of the children's room and choose the ideal bed for the child.

Pros and cons of IKEA bunk beds

Ikea bunk beds come in different sizes. They make both single, 1.5 and 2 bedroom designs. All beds have their disadvantages and advantages.

Among the main disadvantages is that the berth is at a height

How to choose an Ikea mattress

Although when purchasing an Ikea extendable bed, a mattress is not included, it is still better to purchase one too. The most suitable option is a product from the same company.

Sellers know what sizes are required for a particular model of furniture for a child over 3 years of age.

Having a centimeter at your disposal, it is easy to choose a mattress yourself. Just keep in mind that the length and width of the orthopedic product should be 2 - 3 cm less than at the base.

Ikea mattresses are made in such a way and from such materials that are not harmful to the posture and health of the child.

When purchasing a mattress for a crib in a nursery, you must choose it according to the following parameters :

• Product rigidity. Until the age of 12, it is better to opt for hard and semi-rigid mattresses, since until this time the spine is just forming and its fixation is necessary.
• Internal filler. It is advisable to choose flax, wool, coconut fiber. The cotton wool quickly rolls up and the mattress becomes lumpy; It's uncomfortable to sleep on.

The foam filler quickly fills with dust. And it doesn’t last long; begins to crumble and crumble.

• Quality mattress cover. It is better to choose calico or linen products. Covers made of synthetic fabrics are completely unsuitable.

For one child in a small room, it is appropriate to purchase a metal bed. Its width is somewhat narrower than that of wooden sleeping furniture. The length is adjustable and set at the required level.

Transformation capabilities allow you to change objects in the room according to the needs that grow with the child.

If the children's room is spacious, both length and width do not matter, parents and child choose the bed according to its height. It is easier for babies to sleep on a low bed; For older children, a design where the distance from the base to the floor level is the maximum is suitable.

An important point is the absence of toxic substances in the purchased product.

Any bed is a folding bed. It is designed for the fact that a child, starting from the age of 3, will constantly sleep on it over the next decade or more. Although the bed has a complex sliding mechanism, it is distinguished by its simple sliding design.

Assembly instructions

The operating principle of the Swedish company IKEA is to assemble purchased goods and furniture yourself. This allows us to reduce prices and simplify transportation to different countries. Each product comes with a step-by-step description of the assembly process itself, with black and white illustrations and a minimum of explanations.

IKEA delivers products in cardboard boxes sealed with tape. After opening, it is better to lay out everything and label it in accordance with the recommendations.

Once you are sure that there is nothing left in the box, you can begin assembly in a well-lit room. The kit includes tools, but it doesn't hurt to bring your own screwdrivers. If you follow the instructions and carefully carry out all operations, then there will be no obstacles in the assembly.
