The Reasons You Should Experience Mid Sleepers At Least Once In Your Lifetime
Cabin Beds and Mid Sleepers
Cabin beds and mid-sleepers are great for children because they add a bit of excitement to time to sleep. They can be transformed into play areas, dens, and even craft rooms!
Mid sleepers are a bit lower and have a smaller ladder or staircase than high sleepers. They are therefore perfect for younger kids. Some come with storage solutions like shelves, drawers and cube bookcases.
Space-Saving
The majority of children's bedrooms are small, so maximising storage space is essential. Cabin beds or mid-sleepers are a great choice since they can provide plenty of storage and can also be a striking piece for the room. They usually have built-in storage underneath, such as drawers or shelves which can be used in many different ways. Some of our kids cabin beds have an area for a sofa which is perfect to relax and read a book or having a sleepover with friends.
If your kids have a lot of games or toys they wish to keep We have a large choice of cabin beds with useful pull-out wardrobes that allow them access to a comprehensive set of drawers. This means that all of their toys, books and clothes can be stored neatly away and they will have more floor space to play. We also have a wide range of open and closed wardrobes to choose from, so they can create the look they want for their space.
A children's mid-sleeper is slightly different to a cabin bed, as they are slightly higher off the ground and can come with or without stairs or a ladder. This is perfect for children who want to move from a single bed to a mid sleeper. It gives them an independence and security while still allowing them to safely take the stairs. If you're looking to buy something larger than a mid-sleeper, then check out our top sleeper options.
We suggest that children are at minimum 6 years old before using the top bunk of a high sleeper and mid sleeper. However, it is important to review the specific product information pages because manufacturers might have their own safety guidelines. Jumping from the top of the cabin bed is not recommended, as it may cause damage to the structure and injuries to your child.
Both mid sleeper and cabin beds are a great option to make space in the room of your child and are adaptable as their needs change. They can easily be converted into a desk or seating space, or even a fun crafting station. This will allow your child to keep their bedroom neat and tidy when they're studying or playing.
Fun for All Ages
Cabin beds are a great option to bring more enjoyment to a child's space. They offer play and storage all in one location. These raised beds are designed to maximise floor space without making your kids feel like they're in a treehouse, which is why it's a great lifesaver for families that have limited room.
Our range of mid and cabin beds includes models that come with various shelves, drawers, or cupboards to help your children keep their items neatly stored away.

We have options for children who are looking to be a little more imaginative. They can convert their raised bed into an extra bedroom or even a secret place to hide. Some of our beds for mid-sleepers feature a slide to make it a fun entry and exit.
Based on your child's requirements it is also possible to think about a bed that has an inbuilt desk or other storage solutions. Our mid sleeper range includes desks with pull-outs ideal for children who need to complete their work or require a quiet space to study or relax.
Mid and cabin beds are great for kids of all ages, but they're particularly ideal for 10-14 year olds. Your children will have more responsibilities at this age and may prefer to use the space underneath their beds that are mid-sleeper to study in, or a place where they can keep notebooks and pens for school.
Although most manufacturers recommend a maximum age of 6 years for a high or a mid sleeper, it's worth checking the specifics of each product to determine safety guidelines. Many kids are ready for the cabin bed earlier particularly if it's made with safety and fun in mind. Some of our kids' cabin beds are even equipped with a mattress protector to protect their new investment.
Can be Converted Into an Individual Bed
A lot of the cabin beds and mid sleepers we sell can be easily converted into a single. This is great for children who have outgrown their bunk bed or wants to change the arrangement of their bedroom. By removing the ladder and replacing it with a solid single bed frame, they can get a new look for their bedroom and enjoy a good night's rest.
Many mid-sleeper beds have a variety of storage options to help keep your child's room neat and organized. This can include a desk that can be pulled out and cubby storage, which is ideal for an office space or open shelves for books and toys. Some models come with fun play tents that can be used to unwind in a room or play.
They can also have a shelf with a hook to substitute a bedside. It is a great place to keep a lamp, a book or if your child is a reader in bed. With a little imagination, they can transform the space under their beds into a cozy place to read through the night!
It is crucial to remember, however, that children should never leap from a bunk bed or high sleeper as this could damage the structure. Therefore, a cabin bed or a mid-sleeper is the most secure option since it has been designed with safety in mind. They are usually equipped with solid guardrails to stop accidents that happen during the night.
We all know that space is a problem in a child's room which can result in clothes and toys rapidly getting out of hand.
