Mid-sleeper bed FAQ's

If you’re a parent concerned about making the most of the limited ceiling and floor space, a kids mid sleeper bed could be the ideal choice, giving young children a durable base for rest, play, and tidying things away. They’re excellent buys if you want to bring a sense of fun to sleep time, whilst ticking the box for safety and practical considerations.

Our children's bed guide should point you in the right direction if you’re on the hunt for a sleeper that’s suitable for your youngster. However, we recognise that some questions just need a quick answer, so below are some FAQs we encounter regarding these innovative and beautifully practical items:

1. What exactly is a mid sleeper bed?

We don’t blame you for asking! Basically, they’re extremely close cousins to cabin beds, which are renowned for their imaginative, enclosed designs. Mid sleepers (like cabins) still occupy the height bracket between a normal single bed and a bunk, require a standard UK or European mattress but they have a more open look and feel with a bit more space below the elevated sleeping area. too!

• Are mid-sleeper beds easy to build?

Like any piece of furniture you need to construct, the answer relies on planning ahead for how big the room is. So our tip here is always look at the midsleeper measurements vs room dimensions. Once you're satisfied the bed will fit, our flat pack designs come with handy (easy to follow) instructions, whilst some have the option of professional assembly- simply click on the 2 man assembly option on the product page and we'll handle it all.

• Mid sleepers vs bunk beds?

Bunk beds are great, don’t get us wrong, but not everyone has the need or space for two beds all year round. A mid sleeper unit is perfect for young kids and low ceilings, raised from the ground to give you flexible storage below, yet not too high for little legs to climb.
