FAQs on Childrens Beds

What size childrens bed do I need for my child?

Single beds (90cm) suit ages 4–8, small doubles (120cm) work for ages 8–12, and standard doubles (135cm) fit teenagers and taller children. Measure your room length and width, leaving 60cm clearance on either side. Check product dimensions before ordering to ensure the frame fits your space comfortably.

Do childrens beds come with a mattress included?

Most childrens beds are sold as frame only. You can add a compatible mattress at checkout or shop our mattress range separately. Some bundle deals include a mattress—look for includes mattress in the product title. Check individual product descriptions for whats included.

Which childrens bed is best for a small bedroom?

Single beds with built-in under-bed storage maximise space without taking up extra floor room. Cabin beds with desks underneath combine sleeping and study areas. Wall-mounted shelving above the bed adds storage without clutter. Measure your room first and choose a bed at least 30cm shorter than your room length.

Are childrens beds with storage worth buying?

Storage beds eliminate the need for separate drawers or wardrobes, freeing up valuable floor space. Under-bed drawers typically hold 2–3 storage boxes. Ottoman bases provide hidden storage for bedding and seasonal items. If your childs bedroom lacks built-in storage, a storage bed is a practical, space-saving investment.

How do I measure my child for a bed size?

Your child should fit comfortably with 30cm extra length for growth. Measure from head to toe, then add 30cm. For width, ensure at least 15cm either side when lying down. A single bed (90cm wide) suits one child; a small double (120cm) suits two young children or a growing teenager.

Whats the difference between a cabin bed and a standard childrens bed?

Cabin beds feature a raised sleeping area with built-in desk, wardrobe or storage underneath, maximising small spaces. Standard beds sit directly on the frame with optional under-bed drawers. Cabin beds suit ages 6+, cost more, and need higher ceilings (at least 2.2m). Choose standard beds for younger children or compact rooms.

How long does childrens bed delivery take?

Standard delivery takes 3–7 working days from order. Next day delivery is available on selected in-stock models—check for the Next Day Delivery badge. Large or heavy beds may require 2-person delivery, confirmed at checkout. Check your postcode for availability before completing your order.

Can childrens beds be assembled easily?

Most childrens beds assemble in 45–90 minutes with basic tools and two people. Full instructions are included in the box. Ready-assembled options are available if you prefer—look for ready assembled in the product listing. Assembly difficulty varies; check individual product descriptions for estimated time.

What should I look for when buying a childrens bed?

Check weight limit (typically 75–90kg), safety certifications, and rail height if buying a high sleeper. Measure your room and doorways—beds must fit through. Consider storage needs, mattress compatibility, and whether your child prefers fun colours or neutral tones. Read reviews from other parents about durability and assembly.

Are wooden or metal childrens beds more durable?

Solid wood beds are hardwearing and last longer if well-maintained, but cost more. Metal frames are lightweight, affordable and resistant to damage. Hardwoods like oak outlast softwoods like pine. Choose metal for active, younger children; wood for durability and aesthetics. Check product reviews for real-world longevity feedback.
