Are you looking for a way to add space and functionality to a small room? A loft bed may be the answer to your dilemma. They come in wood or metal, with one, two, or even three beds, depending on what your requirements are. Loft beds come in extra long with either a twin size third bed or a full size third bed. So you can sleep three or more kids in one room with this bed.

A more common loft bed that you may have seen is one with the bed on top and a work station (commonly known as a desk) underneath. This is a smart way to use your space efficiently and at the same time it also becomes a fun way for your child to do their homework.

A Loft bed can be accessorized with a drawer chest, pedestal desk, desk hutch, or even a bed shelf.

There are many options to choose from such as the color (black, cherry, chocolate, natural, oak, silver, or white), style of desk (curvy or straight), if you want a matching chair, the facing of your loft bed (left-facing or right-facing) depending on how you plan on laying out the beds in the room, there is a 3 drawer unit, and a triple lindy loft - you need to select if you want a twin size or a full size third bed.

Like with all bunk beds, when purchasing a mattress for the top bunk, be sure to follow the manufacturer's recommendation regarding the maximum thickness/height to ensure that the safety rail works properly.
