What is a high sleeper with desk?
A high sleeper with desk is a type of bed that is elevated off the ground, typically at chest height or higher, and comes equipped with a built-in desk underneath. This type of bed is popular for children and teenagers as it maximises bedroom space. High sleeper beds with desks are beds that elevate the mattress high off the floor, with a ladder that lets you climb up to sleep. The desk is usually positioned underneath the bed and can be used for studying, working, gaming, crafting or other activities.
What types of desk are there?
The desk under the high sleeper may be a full length desk that runs the length of the bed, often with built in shelving. Or the desk may be a corner desk under the high bed that still allows for plenty of space under the bed for a wardrobe or sofa chair bed or drawers and shelves for storage. It is important to consider the needs of your child and what the desk will predominantly be used for. If your child just needs a space to house a laptop then a corner desk is more than sufficient. If the desk is for gaming then a long, full desk may be more beneficial to allow for multiple screens to fit comfortably on the desk.
Which type of mattress do I need for a high sleeper bed with desk?
High sleeper beds with desks can be made from a variety of materials such as metal or wood, and can come in a range of sizes to fit your specific needs. The high bed may be a standard UK size single bed that takes a UK single mattress 90x190cm or a European size single bed that is slightly longer and perfect for taller children and teens as the mattress size is 90x200cm. As high sleepers are becoming more popular they are now available for tweens and teens in a small double size, with a mattress size 120x190cm or double size at 135x190cm to give extra space and make even more use of the underbed space. Some high sleeper beds also come with additional features such as shelves, wardrobes or drawers for storage.
How do I know if the high sleeper bed will fit in the bedroom?
When choosing a high sleeper with desk, it's important to consider the size of the room and ensure that the bed will fit comfortably without taking up too much space. Before purchasing the bed, a good way to determine how much space the bed will take up in the room is to mark out the footprint of the bed using masking tape on the floor, this was you can check whether the bedroom door can open easily, that the window is not covered by the bed, and determine how much space is available for other pieces of furniture / items in the room. Overall, a high sleeper with desk is a practical and space-saving solution for those looking to maximize the functionality of their bedroom.
What age is a high sleeper with desk suitable for?
Another consideration for a high sleeper with desk is the age of your child. High sleeper beds are recommended for children aged 6 and above, up to teenagers and young adults. It's important to consider the safety of the child when choosing a high sleeper bed. The bed should be sturdy and made from durable materials to ensure that it can support the weight of the child. Additionally, the bed should have adequate safety features such as guardrails to prevent the child from falling out in the night. It’s also important to consider the child's maturity level and whether they are responsible enough to use the bed safely. Children who are younger or less mature may not be able to handle the height of the bed and the responsibility of climbing up and down the ladder or stairs, especially during the night time if nature calls.
Ultimately, it is up to the parent or guardian to determine whether a high sleeper bed with desk is appropriate for their child. If in doubt, it's always best to err on the side of caution and choose a lower bed or wait until the child is older before considering a high sleeper bed. A mid sleeper with desk may be more suitable as it is lower to the ground but due to the lower height of the bed the desk typically pulls out from under the bed rather than utilising the floor space under the high bed and so takes up more space in the bedroom.
Should I choose a high sleeper with desk or a mid sleeper with desk?
The space saving benefits of a high bed with desk are great for children or teenagers who need a place to sleep and study in the same room. Some of the benefits that a high sleeper with desk may offer over lower mid sleeper beds with desk are:
- More headroom: A high sleeper bed is usually elevated higher than a mid sleeper bed, which means that there is more headroom underneath the bed. This can make it more comfortable for taller people to sit and work at the desk.
- More floor space:Since a high sleeper bed is usually elevated higher than a mid sleeper bed, there is more floor space available underneath the bed. This can make it easier to store additional furniture or to create a comfortable study or play area.
- More storage options: Some high sleeper beds come with additional storage options, such as shelves or drawers, which can be useful for keeping books, toys, or other items organised and out of the way.
- Increased privacy: A high sleeper bed is usually more elevated than a mid sleeper bed, which can provide more privacy for the person using the desk. This can be especially important for older children or teenagers who need a quiet place to study or work.
Of course, there are also benefits to choosing a mid sleeper bed with desk, such as easier access to the bed and desk, and the fact that they are often more affordable than high sleeper beds. Ultimately, the best option will depend on specific needs and preferences of your child.
