This model is created from durable pine and covered with transparent varnish. You can change the appearance of such a crib thanks to the multi-colored panels. IKEA makes it possible to modify the design of the bed with an arched canopy made of fabric. Such models are extremely convenient. At the age when the child is still small, the bed is at the bottom: the child himself is safe, and the mother can quite simply change his bed. When the baby grows up, the structure is positioned in a standard way, and a large playground appears on the first tier.

• Tromso. Robust and reliable design of the IKEA Tromso model for the room of a young or middle-aged child. Such a model of steel is being developed. It is quite difficult to damage the bed: the cover is very resistant to moisture. From floor to bottom, the height of the structure is 164 centimeters. With such parameters, a full-fledged workplace can be organized for a child. The total height of the product is 216 centimeters. IKEA advises taking such a model with high ceiling parameters - 2.6-2.7 meters. In size, the model is considered one and a half sleeping (140x200 centimeters). In this model, the sides are high, which protects the child from falls.

The end of one end of the bed is a kind of compartment with shelves or even a combination of shelves and a compartment for children's wardrobe.

• Swart. Metal based construction in its "traditional" steel finish.

Such a coating protects against spontaneous destruction of the metal and is quite comfortable to touch, not at all cold, like ordinary metal. The sleeping dimensions of such a model are suitable for the template characteristics - 90x200 centimeters.

Among the endless abundance of material choice, the following is in great demand among buyers: wood, metal and plastic:

• Oak beds have an almost unlimited lifespan, they are quite sturdy and reliable, blend perfectly with home decor, and are completely silent. High quality and luxurious models are made from birch base. Beech, alder or ash wood has an unrivaled color and will transform any room with its presence. Solid pine is the most commonly used component in the design of a loft bed.

• Metal base of the berth - this is a durable support, which, with all this, adds a kind of plasticity to the bed and retains undeniable reliability. An iron bed always looks more reliable than counterparts made from other materials.

• Plastic is often used to create bunk beds, designed for the little ones. These cots are presented in a rich color palette and a variety of models. The appearance of such creations, as a rule, is based on fairy-tale themes.

When choosing a two-tier structure, its size is an important factor. When a bed is bought for a teenager or adult, then its parameters must be at least 90x200 centimeters. It is important to remember that for a child who is still growing up, the bed should be purchased with an allowance for additional space.

Provided that the height of the ceiling in the living space is quite limited, and we all know that children love to have fun on the bed, a sleeping area located under the ceiling can cause physical injuries. Therefore, when buying a crib for a child, the choice should be given to a product with a height of 160 to 180 centimeters.

Reliability is fundamental to any IKEA baby product. When creating furniture, extremely reliable elements are used to ensure good fixation of the bed and its immobility. The presence of raised sides with a rigid transom filling is a separate plus. IKEA experts advise kids over 6 years old to buy a loft bed.

Such beds allow you to create space for entertainment or a workplace on the first tier, which means that the distance from the bottom of the bed to the floor is more than sufficient for the child to be able to move freely under the second tier. Consequently, the height of such a model will be impressive - up to 206 centimeters. Width - Measured by the size of the upper sleeping area.

Beds of the Stuva variety, for example, are 99 centimeters wide, while Tromso has an upper double bed. If there is free space on the lower level, the base of the bed can cover a fairly large part of the area. It is also necessary to take into account the interesting fact that the bed, without reducing the space of the room, superficially reduces the ceiling area and prevents full lighting. This point should be taken into account when buying such a bed, you may need additional room lighting.

A variety of design solutions makes it possible to fit the structure into almost any interior. Sleeping on a loft bed is always much more interesting than on a regular model. Beds of this type provide the opportunity to use the space twice. In the case when the bed is used on the first tier only as a guest bed, adding just a few decorative pillows will turn the bed into a comfortable sofa. At the same time, there is a lot of space under the loft bed and can be used for any purpose.

In general, reviews of beds from IKEA are more than positive. Many buyers note a truly high level of reliability of all models, children's satisfaction with such lock beds, as well as the quietness of wooden options. A separate plus is the democratic cost of the company's products. Buyers especially note that almost every young family with a child or children can afford loft beds.
