Bunk Bed with Sofa
A bunk bed with a sofa is the best choice for small rooms. Such a piece of furniture is especially relevant in children's rooms where two children live. However, adult options are also in demand. So, we consider in more detail all the characteristics and nuances of using a bunk bed with a sofa.
Design
This design has a strong metal base, and also includes bent strong wood species, can withstand weight up to 150 kg. The lifting mechanism is arranged on gas shock absorbers, the upper part is reliably and easily fixed on the frame. The staircase provides not only a climb up, but at the same time serves as a limiter in case of improper folding of the structure.
Features
Such furniture in appearance does not differ from an ordinary sofa, and therefore perfectly fits into any interior. It is multifunctional, mobile, easy to manage.
The package may include additional folding tables, storage boxes or elements due to which the design can take the form of a cabinet.
The sofa can be in three positions:
- fully folded;
- completely disassembled;
- with the back tilted.
For children, this design is a real hobby, because it can be used as a hut, cave and even a small castle.
Materials
Of course, the best option is a natural tree. But such a bed will cost an order of magnitude more expensive. Models from MDF, chipboard can become an excellent alternative - they are also environmentally friendly, because they are made of pressed sawdust. It is important that the design is strong and safe, and this is achieved through reliable fasteners in the frame.
Nevertheless, pine will be a great substitute for expensive species (beech or birch), which will fill the space with a pleasant coniferous aroma.
If you have a teenager or you pick up a bed for yourself, a metal option is an excellent option. For kids, it will be traumatic, and for you - just right. In addition, such a bed with a sofa is an ideal solution for a modern interior style, hi-tech, minimalism.

Disadvantages
The only negative is the conditional danger of a small child being on the second tier. But this nuance can hardly be attributed to drawbacks today, as modern manufacturers produce such models with reliable sides.
Varieties
Children's bunk bed with sofa
There are a large number of varieties of children's models. As they say, manufacturers have shown their imagination to the maximum.
The most popular option is a completely wooden structure or a combination of MDF with metal and a sofa below. For small fidgets, parents try to purchase a multi-functional bunk bed with a sofa with a lot of additional elements and a mini-wall.

For adults
There are not as many bunk beds with a sofa for adults as children's versions. Most often these are metal structures. The basic components are similar, but there are more interesting options - today manufacturers have begun to produce double bunk beds. Domestic manufacturers have more classic models - soft upholstery and wooden elements on the sofa, foreign adhere to spectacular chrome surfaces.
Convertible sofa
In addition to bunk beds with a sofa, there are transformer sofas that can be converted into bunk beds. Most models are designed for children, as they support less weight than regular beds. However, there are adult versions that are distinguished by a reinforced mounting system and a powerful frame.
Important about the stairs
Stairs in this design require special attention, because many of them are made of beautiful chromed metal, which, although it looks spectacular, is not easy and unsafe to climb such a ladder, especially for children. Therefore, it is better to give preference to structures with sturdy wooden stairs or to provide a safe climb. For example, there are models for sale in which bedside tables or drawers serve not only for their intended purpose, but also serve as a ladder, which is much more reliable than a metal analog.
The choice of “price - quality”
