What do I need to know about mattresses?
Thick
luxury mattresses should be reserved for the
bottom bunk.
Once you get the bunk bed
home you will realize that making up the top
bunk is the hardest part of maintaining it. One
tip is to place a fitted sheet on the mattress
for the top bunk prior to putting on the bed
frame. Thick luxury mattresses should be
reserved for the bottom bunk. Most children and
adults will be quite comfortable on a standard
312 coil insulated mattress. This type of
mattress is ideal because it is not too heavy to
lift onto the top bunk, and it is usually seven
to eight inches thick which works well with most
guardrail systems.
A Bunkie board will provide better support to a
top bunk mattress than slats. A Bunkie board is
usually about 1 ½ inches thick, which gives a
nice flat, covered surface on which to support
the mattress. They are constructed with a wooden
frame that has been covered with cloth and a
thin board. They get their strength from the
manner in which they are constructed. With a
Bunkie board in place you should not hesitate to
jump up onto the top bunk with your child for
bedtime stories and kisses.
