Laura Fenton, the author of The Bunk Bed Book : The 115 Designs for Twins, Triplets and More, says that it is essential to look at your options prior to making the purchase. She suggests to look for a sturdy construction, which ensures the bunk will last through many years of use and abuse. She also recommends considering the material, which should be made of durable and environmentally friendly wood or a durable composite. The majority of the bunks we've reviewed are made from either kind of material. Many are Greenguard Gold certified meaning they comply with the standards for air quality set forth by the Environmental Protection Agency. The ladder is the final consideration. It can be straight or angled and should be put on the left or the right side of the bed depending on the size and layout of the room. The ladders that are angled require more space to climb, but they are also safer than straight ladders that can be more easy to fall off of, Fenton says. Some of the bunks that we examined have stairs that are easy to use but take up more space. This is an ideal option if you have a young child who needs extra support to get in bed. The majority of our picks can be converted into two beds and the bunk will continue to work for your child even as they develop. For example, the Oeuf Perch bunk, a favorite of Fenton and writer (and mom of two) Alex Morris, can be separated into a loft bed and an ordinary twin bed, so that it doesn't feel “baby” as your child enters the teen years.
