Ivy League 2.0 Walnut Full/Full Bunk Bed

No, a traditional box spring is not recommended for this bed. Instead, a bunkie board is required. Based on our expertise in bunk bed safety, a bunkie board provides the necessary flat, firm support for the mattress without the added height of a box spring. This ensures the mattress sits at the correct level to keep the guardrails effective.

Safety standards recommend that the top bunk be reserved for children aged 6 and older. This bunk bed is designed with dual built-in ladders and quality-constructed guardrails to provide secure access and peace of mind. For optimal safety, always ensure the mattress used is low enough that the top of the mattress is at least 5 inches below the upper edge of the guardrails.

Yes, the space-saving design is ideal for maximizing floor area in more compact living situations. By stacking two full-sized sleeping surfaces vertically within a 78.5"l x 56.5"w footprint, you free up significant square footage for play, desks, or storage. This makes it a perfect solution for urban apartment living or smaller suburban bedrooms where you need to accommodate two children without sacrificing floor space.

For this 70-inch tall bunk bed, we recommend a room with at least 8-foot (96-inch) ceilings. This clearance provides roughly 26 inches of space between the bed and the ceiling, allowing a child to sit up comfortably. For rooms with lower ceilings, our research suggests measuring carefully to ensure the sleeper on the top bunk has enough head clearance to move safely.

This bunk bed is quality-constructed to withstand the rigors of an active children's bedroom. The wood-based frame offers a stable, heavy-duty foundation that minimizes the wobbling often found in lighter metal frames. Additionally, the rich walnut finish is a practical choice for high-traffic areas, as the dark wood tones are excellent at masking the minor scuffs and wear that naturally occur over years of use.

A full-over-full configuration is an excellent long-term investment for shared bedrooms. Unlike twin-sized bunks, the 56.5-inch width of these full beds provides ample room for children as they grow into their teenage years. This "Ivy League" design is specifically crafted to transition with your children, offering a timeless walnut finish that remains stylish from early childhood through young adulthood.
