Bunk Bed History

A short but interesting history lesson on bunk beds.

When you stack one bed on top of another it is referred to as a bunk bed. They are a great solution any time you have two people sharing one room with limited floor space, such as a children’s bedroom or a college residence hall. Bunk beds usually have four supports, one at each corner. While most bunk beds come equipped with a ladder to reach the top bunk, many children find more creative ways to climb into the top bed. There is typically a rail that surrounds the top bed so that no one falls out while they are sleeping. It is recommended that children under six years not use the top bunk, as using the ladder may be dangerous for them. You can find bunk beds any place where floor space is in short supply, including hostels, ships, and garrisons.
