Beds for two children

Two children in the family - not so rare, but to grow them by modern standards is not so easy, especially if the age is the same. Significant expenditures are needed to support two babies at once, and any savings would be very helpful. In addition, in many apartments there is no possibility to allocate to each child a separate room, and one room is rarely large enough to accommodate two beds at once, a play area and everything else that children need. You can try to solve all these problems (at least partially) with the help of a bed for two children.

Every year, bedroom furniture for two children is becoming increasingly popular, which is caused not only and not so much by an increase in the birth rate, as the fact that many parents appreciate the advantages of such a decision.

That is why it is worth buying a bed for two children:

• Most of these beds fold. Not all types of designs allow this, but still they can usually be folded one way or another. This means that a bulky and time-consuming bed during the day turns into a small cozy sofa, leaving plenty of space for active play of children.
• Inside the bedroom furniture, you can usually store some things. Above - a sleeping place, and inside - drawers and shelves. This is how modern large beds are usually created, which saves space on the closet, which now does not even have to be installed at all. If the bed is designed for two people at once, even if they are small, then the places inside it, naturally, are quite a few - bed linen, children's toys, and books will fit there.
• Manufacturers make special double beds for children. They often take into account the specifics of the fact that the kids will sleep here, so the minimum benefit when buying is a bright and beautiful design that allows you to at least just improve the mood of the children.

• Such furniture fits well with any design. Most often, the design of a double crib is neutral, so that it does not look like an alien element anywhere, but on the contrary - becomes the highlight of the interior.
• Two in one will cost less than two separately. Much less materials, time and effort are spent on the production of such furniture than on the production of two separate beds. This, of course, affects the prices. It is possible that in terms of delivery and loading, this solution will also be more profitable. If you are faced with the need to save finances and space, a bed for two children will be the best choice.

The fact that the beds for two children is a very stretchable concept allows us to even more meet the specific requirements of the buyer. The fact is that the manufacturers have invented at least eight varieties of the design, which allow the simultaneous rest of two kids at once, which allows to achieve exactly those goals that in this case are the most important. Here's how the various housing options affect the convenience:

• Double bed It may seem that such a bed saves perhaps money, but not a place at all - it doesn’t add up, it is just a double bed, only a little smaller. However, its large case is always used to its fullest - it is a spacious wardrobe literally for everything that you can think of.

• Folding, lifting. Here, a pronounced savings in space can be traced to the fact that during the day a seemingly ordinary bed is brought to an upright position. Thanks to the system of springs and fixation, it is completely safe, but such furniture should not just be brought, but also correctly entered into the room.

• Corner. Corner beds do not save space at all, but they look very interesting and in the daytime even by themselves can serve as a good play area. This is usually a two-tier structure, in which the tiers connected in the intended corner of the room are located at right angles to each other. Very beloved children two-storey "house»Can also be equipped with drawers. It resembles the usual double model, but somewhat inferior to her in capacity.

• Bed-dresser. As a rule, this is a rather bulky-looking bed. By itself, it is a single bed, but from it you can pull out as if another one of the same bed, only with a sleeping place just below. Two berths are at different heights due to the fact that one of them is on top of the general building, and the second is inside, as it were, but both are necessarily quite high. This is due to the fact that there are still very spacious drawers inside the part to be pulled out, in no way inferior to a complete cabinet.

• Retractable. In its own way, it resembles the previous version, but there are usually not many boxes, which is why the whole structure is much easier. In addition, some models allow for a complete separation of the lower tier. Disassembled, this is not just a double bed of complex construction, but two completely separate single beds, one of which is slightly lower.

• Bed podium. If the ceilings in the room are high enough, you can win a seat by hiding the bed under ... the floor. Yes, that's right - it just needs to be raised in one of the places, creating a podium - an elevation with steps to it.

• Bunk. Beds with the second tier are well known to everyone - someone slept on these in a children's camp, someone had to see this in hospitals, and men may have come across such in the army.

• Bed-case. Most often, this type is still separate single beds, built into one large wardrobe, which still implies the presence of one large case.

First, keeping two masters at once, albeit small ones, is not that easy. Secondly, young children tend to actively frolic and jump. Third, with any built-in shelves, the load on the chassis increases even more.

All three factors strongly influence the choice of material for production.

It can be said that the choice is limited to only two materials - either metal or solid wood.

Of great importance and assembly. Pay attention to the brand: if it is known, it means that it has a lot of good reviews, something deserved. In addition, the company will do everything possible in order not to spoil its good reputation. This does not mean that only world-famous manufacturers should be chosen. If the manufacturing company is little known, at least personally make sure that the design is strong enough.

The choice in favor of reliable furniture will save you immediately from two troubles. You can be sure that really durable materials will not succumb to the destructive activity of even the most restless children, and the broken furniture will not have to be urgently changed. I do not even want to imagine what could happen to children in a situation when the bed breaks down due to their actions, so carefully monitor the quality of materials.

Since special beds for two children are often chosen precisely for the sake of space, one should again pay attention to how much space they occupy. Here is a small rating for this indicator:

• The smallest - those that save space. Of course, this statement is very conditional, because each bed still takes a place, it just can fully share it with some other furniture. Vivid examples are built-in wardrobe beds, canisters and beds-podiums hidden under a special canopy-floor.
• Little ones - occupying a space smaller than a single bed. There is only one option - folding beds, also known as lift beds. In the raised form, they occupy a place approximately equal to the area of ​​their back. This is not more than one third of the single bed for each bed.
• Average - at the level of a single bed. They, taking a single bed, allow two kids to sleep at once. This is the most numerous category of furniture, when folded, this includes a bed-dresser, and a bunk bed, and a pull-out bed. The considerable occupied space is compensated by additional functions of a case or a sports projectile.
• Large - larger than a single bed. These include corner and double beds, the compensation of which for large sizes is the same as for medium products.

Finally - some useful tips to help you find the perfect option:

• For children of different age (and different sex) it is better to choose beds with completely separate sleeping places. Separate folding, bed-cases, sliding with separable parts - this is what you need. Double - something that just can not.

• In a small room, purchase only the most compact beds. - in any case, in the folded state.Large beds have their own advantages, but sometimes you can store things in the parents' room or the storage room, and the home horizontal bar due to lack of space is inferior in practicality to the street.
• When choosing a bed with a collapsible design, pay special attention to the sliding mechanisms. They must be reliable and durable enough to serve for many years, but not very tight, so that children can fold and fold the furniture without help. The same applies to the total weight of the case - if it is too heavy, children will not cope with sleeping places.
