A Bachelors Dream, Futon Bunk Bed

By Dave Johnson

Futon beds were originally Japanese and were used as a traditional bedding style. They have since had many re-designs and versions including the futon bunk bed. This style of futon incorporates a bed on top with a futon underneath.

Almost all of us have faced the problems of finding enough bedding for a sudden group of guests. A bunk bed with futon is a brilliant way to utilize space and make enough sleeping room for your guests. They are also very good for sibling and sleep over.

You can say good bye to overcrowded bedrooms and guests sleeping on the floor. Besides, they offer a very nice sitting area during the day and of course, extra sleeping place at the night.

These beds are available in many styles and finishing that are found in traditional beds. Mission and contemporary style beds are two of the styles available.

These beds are adaptable so they fit into any room. You can choose a feminine design for your daughters bedroom or you can choose a masculine design for your little boys room.

A typical futon mattress is about 2 inches thick. They are made from a fabric exterior with a foam and batting filling. The western alternative to futons are usually made from wood or metal and have thicker mattresses.

Typically, the frame folds in the middle allowing the futon to be used as a couch and flattens to be used as a bed. They are usually filled with foam as well as batting, often in several layers and they are often much thicker and larger than Japanese futons, resembling a traditional mattress in size. Western style futons are a cheap alternative to bed or other furniture.

Things to keep in mind when buying a futon bunk bed:

* Top mattress should be no more than 9 inches thick.

* A matching ladder and guard rail is essential.

* Some futon bunk bed can easily convert into two separate beds.

* Don't forget that the bottom bunk will fold up so get a mattress to accommodate that.

* Lower futon frame of a futon bunk bed folds down quickly to turn into a comfy full size bed.

* Never attach or hang any item that is not designed for use with twin over futon bunk beds.

* Steel frames are covered with a powder finish that comes in a variety of colors.

* A futon bunk bed can be put together with your normal household tools.
