Ivy League 2.0 White Twin/Full Step Loft with Chest

This unit is engineered to serve as a complete bedroom storage solution. It features a built-in chest with five beveled drawers and a storage cabinet with adjustable shelves. Additionally, each of the steps leads to a built-in storage drawer. By utilizing vertical space for organization, this bed can often replace the need for a standalone dresser, which is a major advantage for smaller rooms.

This loft bed is an ideal choice for high-density living environments where floor space is at a premium. By consolidating two beds, a five-drawer chest, a shelving unit, and stair storage into a single 101" x 79" footprint, it frees up significant room for play or study. The clean white finish also helps the piece blend seamlessly into the room, making a smaller space feel more open and organized.

Integrated steps provide a significantly more stable and wider climbing surface compared to a traditional ladder. Each step on this loft bed features skid-resistant textured strips to provide extra traction, which is especially important for children navigating the bed during nighttime bathroom trips. This design choice offers enhanced safety and is generally preferred by parents for children who may find vertical ladders challenging.

This loft bed stands at a height of 70.5 inches. To ensure a child can sit up comfortably on the top bunk without hitting the ceiling, we recommend a minimum ceiling height of 8 to 9 feet. This provides the necessary 30 to 36 inches of clearance above the mattress, which is the standard safety benchmark for comfortable lofted living.

Yes, the full-size bottom bed is equipped with casters, allowing it to glide smoothly across the floor. This mobility is particularly helpful for practical tasks like changing the sheets on a lower bunk or vacuuming underneath the frame. Because the bottom bed is not structurally fixed to the loft, it offers the flexibility to be repositioned as your child's needs or the room's layout changes.

Yes, bunkie boards are required for both the top twin bunk and the bottom full bed to ensure proper mattress support. For lofted beds, using a slim-profile bunkie board instead of a traditional box spring is a critical safety measure; it keeps the mattress at the correct height to ensure the guardrails remain effective in preventing falls.
