How to Shop for a Bunk Bed

When researching which bed is right for you, be sure that you are comparing similar products.

Bunk beds are great for giving you extra sleeping space and extra floor space. To ensure safety your bed should be purchased from a reputable dealer, comply with the latest safety standards, be correctly installed, and have its use supervised. Look for a dealer that has a good reputation and is willing to stand behind their product with a solid lifetime warranty. Your bunk bed should have a gold sticker attached to it that outlines important safety information that should be followed. There are voluntary safety standards for bunk beds which have been published by the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM). Be sure that the bed you purchase complies with these standards.

When researching which bed is right for you, be sure that you are comparing similar products. For example, sometimes the price of the bed includes a posture or Bunkie board, sometimes it does not. You will need these to provide adequate support to your mattress, so be sure to know the price with these items included.

Find out the delivery policy of your dealer. Some good questions to ask include: Will there be an additional fee fore delivery? Will the delivery people set up the bunk bed in my home? Will any product packaging materials be removed by delivery personnel? Does the dealer sub-contract out delivery and installation, or do they have their own in house employees for such jobs? Are they able to deliver at a time that works will for my schedule? Do I need to set aside an entire day to wait for delivery or are they willing to set an appointment for a more specific time?
