How to Choose the Best Kids' Bunk Beds affordable bunk beds for kids beds can be a great way to give your siblings or guests their own space. They also double as stylish decor for rooms and some of them can save you on bedroom furniture costs. Choose a clean, white finish for a kid's room with a cottage or coastal theme. You can also opt for the rich espresso stain to soften the rustic look of a farmhouse or bedroom. There's even a clay shade that is universally appealing and can be mixed with various shades of color. Size When buying bunk beds for your children, you should consider the size of the room as well as how the bunks will be used. Bunk beds are great for reducing space and allow siblings to share a room. They can also be used for sleepovers. Some models allow for the addition of an extra trundle underneath the kids bunk beds with storage that is on the bottom. You'll need to measure your space, including the height of the ceiling to make sure that the dimensions of the bunk bed will fit.
