Any parent will tell you that when it comes to kids: the less room they have, the more room there is for disaster. That being said, a child does not always have a need for an additional bed in their room. However, not many of their friends would come back for a sleep over if they were asked to turn in for the night on a makeshift bed or couch. The child of a blended family would not wish to visit next weekend if accommodations were scarce either. Enter problem.
Trundle Beds, Daybeds, Hide-a-beds and their place in the home For many, their children's rooms are far too small to accommodate multiple beds and still allow room for safe play. This is where the trundle bed makes its claim to fame. The Trundle Bed, also known as a Hide-a-Bed and very similar to a Daybed, is a pair of beds, one which is on rollers or casters so that it may be put beneath the upper mattress for storage. Its unique design allows for two separate beds to be available when needed, but does not require the space all the time. This makes it perfect for the accommodation of guests at a moment's notice, a characteristic of the spur-of-the-moment sleepover that comes with youth.
Advantages for those with children? The bed's design gives function and function to any child's room. It gives the child the much needed floor space for play while also allowing for the owner to entertain guests overnight. It's a perfect ergonomic combination for any kid's room. These beds offer a generally inexpensive and less dangerous answer to the bulkier looking bunk beds of yester year. Many the trundle bed models available also include drawers for extra storage adding to their already extensive versatility.
What to bear in mind when purchasing Depending on what you are in the market for, there are two different types of trundle bed frames. The first frame type independently folds out from the stationary bed. This second mattress is attached to springs and pops up to the same height. The other frame type is all one piece and simply rolls out from underneath the top mattress. Given that many trundle beds have a construction which does not include a box spring, select a mattress which is fairly think and close to full size. Selecting a trundle bed with solid wooden or metal construction and a secure locking mechanism will also ensure the safety of your kids and their friends.
