Most bunk bed-related injuries occur to children under this age and more than half of them occur due to falls. It's a good idea too, to establish clear rules for the use of the bunk bed, and to make it clear that the top bunk should not be used for jumping, playing or anything else.

Trundles can also be found for bunk beds as pull-out mattresses. These mattresses can be accessed with a single step and are located beneath the bunk bed's bottom. This allows for an additional sleeping space for guests who visit and eliminates the need for an air mattress.

Safety features are a must for anyone thinking of buying a bunk bed. Make sure there are side rails on the upper and lower bunks to stop a child from falling off the top bunk.
