If the child has matured and grown out of his crib, it should soon be replaced with a teenage one. In the selection process, you need to be guided by such criteria as: bed quality, functionality, construction and design.
The main requirement is quality
When choosing a bed for a teenager, special attention should be paid to the quality of the material from which it is made. Plastic beds are usually attracted by the original design. But such material is synthetic and not environmentally friendly. And the practicality of plastic beds is in question.
It is better to refuse beds made of chipboard material right away. But options from MDF can already be considered. This material is made of wood and is significantly superior in quality to plastic. But still the most reliable are wooden beds. It is an environmentally friendly and hypoallergenic material. Plus, teenage wood beds look very cozy.
Teenage bed design
If the children's room is large enough, you can safely opt for an ordinary classic bed. For small children's rooms, the best option would be a loft bed or folding structure. However, folding beds are not sold separately from the wardrobes.
The loft bed looks very original and will fully correspond to a mischievous teenage mood. Here, space is saved due to the location of the bed on the second floor. It turns out that the first floor is reserved for a workplace, which is very convenient.
If you have two restless teenagers, the only solution is a bunk bed. So there will even be room in the room for some other furniture and games.
Functionality and design of beds for teens
The functionality of the bed is very important to save space. For example, a linen box can be placed under a regular bed. If this is a bunk bed, some necessary storage boxes may be located under its steps.
A teenage bed must be equipped with bumpers to ensure safety while sleeping. Much also depends on the quality of the product's fittings. Cases and drawers should slide out easily enough.
Also, in the process of choosing a teenage bed, you need to think about increasing the space in the children's room. Try to buy a bed that gives your child a good rest and does not take up much space. This issue is especially relevant for very small rooms. A bulky sleeping place should not interfere with the active life of a teenager.
