When choosing a bunk bed for your children It is important to consider the overall dimensions of your space, says Katie Siegel, lead designer at Rumor Designs. You must make sure that the dimensions of the bed match the dimensions of your room, otherwise they could appear too heavy and unbalanced. You'll also want to check if your ceilings are tall enough to accommodate an elevated mattress.

Also, think about the way your children will go up and down their bunks. Some models have a standard ladder while others have an alternative staircase that is built with large steps that allow children to safely climb up and down. This is especially important when you plan to let your older children use the top bunk on their own.
