Cabin Beds and Mid Sleepers
Kids enjoy cabin beds and mid sleepers because they add an element of fun to nighttime. They can be turned into play areas, a den and even crafting rooms!
Mid sleepers are less slender and have a shorter ladder or staircase than high sleepers. They are therefore ideal for children who are younger. Some are equipped with storage solutions like shelves, drawers and cube bookcases.
Space-Saving
Most children's bedrooms are tiny and maximising storage space is essential. Cabin beds and mid sleepers are a great solution for that as they provide ample storage space while being a stunning design element in the room. They usually include built-in storage underneath, such as shelves or drawers which can be used in many different ways. Some of our kids cabin beds have the option of a sofa underneath, perfect for relaxing and reading a book or having a sleepover with friends.
If your child has many games or toys they would like to put away, we offer a wide range of cabin beds that have handy pull-out wardrobes that give them access to a comprehensive set of drawers. This means that all of their books, toys and clothes can be tucked efficiently and they'll have more room to play. We offer a variety of stylish open and closed wardrobes, so they can create their own style for their space.
A mid-sleeper for kids is different from a cabin bed as it is a bit higher and can be purchased with or without a step or ladder. This is perfect for children who are ready to move up from a single bed. It will help them feel more independent while being secure enough to take the stairs. If you're looking for something a little bit bigger than a mid sleeper, take an look at our high sleeper options.
We recommend that children are at minimum six years old before they can use the top bunk in a high-sleeper or mid-sleeper. However, it is important to check the specific product information pages since manufacturers may have their own safety guidelines. A fall from the top bunk of a bunk bed could also cause damage to the structure, and possibly injure your child.
Mid sleeper and cabin beds are a fantastic way to free up space in your child's bedroom and are able to be adapted as their requirements change. They can be easily converted into a seating area, desk or a fun crafting station and will help them to keep their bedrooms clean and tidy which is a great benefit when it comes to studying or playing.
Fun for All Ages
A cabin bed takes the fun of a child's bedroom to a new level, providing both play and storage in a single space. These beds are designed to maximise the amount of floor space, but without making your children feel like they're in a treehouse, which is why it can be a real lifesaver for families that have limited room.
Mid-sleeper and cabin beds come in a variety of designs that come with shelves, drawers or cabinets to help your children organize their belongings. This keeps their bedroom tidy and free from clutter, eliminating the temptation for them to throw their toys out of their reach - or worse still, under their bed!
We have a variety of options for kids who are looking to be more imaginative. They can turn their raised bed into a second space or a secret retreat. Some of our mid-sleeper beds have a slide that can be used for a fun entrance and exit.
You might also look into a bed with an integrated desk or other storage options according to your child's particular requirements. Our mid sleeper range features desks that can be pulled out, ideal for children who want to do homework or need an area that is quiet to study or relax.
Both cabin and mid sleeper beds are suitable for children of all ages, but they're particularly suitable for 10-14 year olds. At this age, your kids have more responsibility, so they might want the space underneath their mid sleeper bed for the study area or as an area to store notebooks and pens ready for school.
It's important to check the product details for any safety recommendations. Manufacturers generally recommend a minimum of 6 years for an adult who sleeps in the middle or high position. Many kids are ready to get a cabin bed earlier, especially if it is designed with safety and challenge in mind. Some of our cabin beds for children come with mattress protectors that help protect your investment.
Can be Converted Into an Individual Bed
The beauty of many of the cabin bed and mid sleeper options that we have is that they can easily be transformed into single beds. This is a great option for children who have outgrown their bunk beds or require an upgrade to their bedroom layout. Simply taking down the ladder and replacing it with a solid single bed frame, they can enjoy a new look to their bedroom and get an excellent night's sleep.
A lot of mid-sleeper beds provide plenty of storage options, which can help to keep your child's bedroom clean and organised. This can include a pull-out desk and cubby storage which is perfect for an office space, or open shelves for books and toys. Certain models feature fun play tents that can be used to relax in a playroom or pretend.
They could also include a shelf with a hook to replace a bedside. This can be useful for a lamp, book or toy and is great for kids who enjoy reading before turning out the lights and going to sleep. With some imagination and creativity your children can transform the bed into a comfy nook that they can use all night long.
However, it is important to keep in mind that children should never jump off a bunk or high sleeper bed because it could cause damage to the structure. A cabin bed or a mid-sleeper is the best option since it was constructed with safety in mind. They usually have strong guardrails to avoid accidents that happen during the night.
We all are aware of the limited space in a child's room and this can result in toys and clothes quickly becoming too big.
