Stompa Bunk Beds

Stompa bunk beds are an amazing way of maximizing the room you have in your house to accommodating two people in a bedroom that without the bunk bed would only have housed one. 

This type of arrangement is aimed more towards younger children, with the bunk beds generally being dismantled once puberty is reached.  Usually stompa bunk beds are aimed more towards starting families that have two children but are still living in a three bedroom first house.  Seeing as children don’t need the privacy that adults and teenagers do, it’s a great way not only to safe space but to hold out looking to buy a new property until you’re in a better position to do so.  Not only this, but it’s great at allowing your children to bond and talk, and gives them a greater sense of openness as well as giving skills at co-habitation.

Stompa bunk beds can cost anywhere from four hundred to a thousand pounds, and come in a vast array of different arrangements and styles.  For a start, some stompa bunk beds don’t actually have the traditional lower bunk.  This is in fact replaced with a desk or table for working, perhaps with a computer on.  On the other hand, it may in fact just be an area under the bed where storage can take place.  These types of storage bunk beds can be only an extra foot of the ground - or up to two meters, so the variety is massive.  This means a big deal to a lot of parents because children tend to acquire a lot of toys and random clutter.  The problem of where to store this is overcome when you consider that you can simply shove it all under the bed (out of sight, out of mind!).

However, stompa bunk beds aren’t just for those who are running out of living space in their home!  There’s a myriad of reasons why you’d want one, one being that it makes sleepovers for your children a lot easier when you don’t have to whip out an old dirty mattress and you can just let them sleep in the free bunk bed.  Not only this, but if you have close family relatives, for example your children’s cousins which visit regularly it’s another bonus.  But saving the other bunk for someone else isn’t the only reason, many people say that they actually feel safer and more at home sleeping on the top of a bunk bed.  There definitely is a certain feeling of safety and warmth as you’re raised several meters of the ground from all the monsters below!  One thing that may make a difference is that it certainly is easier on a parent’s back then a regular bed.  An average height adult can stand comfortably and communicate with their son or daughter without having to constantly bend down and lower their back.

	There are lots of different bunk beds available, in all different types and designs. One of the most popular is to infact have a low raised bunk bed with a 'den' for playing below. It comes with an outer slide (for fast escape of course), as well as a standard ladder. It doesn't feature a proper lower bunk bed, but the space is available for storage or playing - they're what you'd consider kid bunk beds.
	Toy Bunk Beds are those which are specifically shaped to mimic something in the real world. This means that they can be anything from racing cars, to space shuttles (pictured left). These can sometimes be bought from a usual retail outlet, or can be custom bunk beds. This definitely adds a sense of wonder to the bedroom, and few could say they've seen a bunk bed that was quite like this one!
	This is of the painted maple bunk beds variety, which is a sturdy, hardwood bunk bed made from maple and then painted with a non-toxic paint. This may come in the form of a varnish, or may be a substance which is meant to tint the natural colour of the wood without completely disguising it. These types of bed are more expensive and are designed for a more old fashioned feel.
