Children's sofa beds with sides

Modern parents always strive to give their baby only the best. For this reason, choosing a bed for him, they want the purchased model to be beautiful and comfortable, because on this bed the child will sleep every night. A huge range of different designs and the most creative solutions will help you choose the most interesting furniture for your children, remembering the needs of the children themselves. Not the last place will be occupied by stylish sofas with bumpers for the nursery.

The sides are the partitions that are needed in beds for both very active and calm children, because during dreams they often roll off and fall from their beds.

The safety of these products will be guaranteed by the presence of such sides, which are upholstered with fabric, and inside them there is a soft material. They are fixed on all sides of the crib to protect the baby from falling. In a number of models there are drawers that are pushed. They can be adapted for storing various things or toys.

The design of the sofa bed is very creative, because the product can be easily changed into a good place for active games. Also, it can easily and quickly be folded and unfolded, while freeing up a certain place. The sides may not be placed on all sides of the sofa - part of the product may remain open. This is necessary so that an already grown-up baby can climb onto his improvised bed without help from outside.

The main advantages of children's sofas and couches with sides:

• they guarantee the safety of babies: thanks to their sturdy sides, they will not be able to fall out of bed during sleep and will be safely covered from possible drafts;

• when choosing, you will appreciate the possibility of acquiring sofas with sides for both girls and boys;
• durable frame construction can be operated for a long time, and the child will be able to assemble and disassemble the product;
• such products do not belong to the category of inexpensive, because most models have a frame and upholstery of the best materials;
• The sides will block the space necessary for the child to have a good sleep from the rest of the room, thereby helping to create a cozy and child-friendly atmosphere.

There are, however, in such a product and its disadvantages:

• for comfort this type of furniture is significantly inferior to the usual bed;
• the sofa will have to be laid out, then folded from time to time, and even every day, which is not very convenient and labor-intensive;
• if the model costs little, then it will quickly become worthless.

Today in furniture markets or in a specialized market you can find quite interesting and colorfully designed furniture for the nursery. There are many types of sofas that fold into a bed.

Consider the most popular of them.

• Model transformer very popular due to its compactness. Its design allows you to get enough space to sleep, children will enjoy not only from a year to 5 years, but also adolescents.
• Bunk bed with sofa - excellent option for a family with 2 children. This model has 2 comfortable places for sleeping (one on each tier): at the top there is a comfortable bed, at the bottom there is a sofa with well-placed sides. Many models have compact parameters, sometimes there are variations with built-in boxes.
• With roll-out mechanism. This type is suitable for everyday use, it is very easy to use, compact and durable. Sliding models will perfectly fit into small rooms. In the assembled position they will not occupy a lot of space, and in the unfolded - they will organize a spacious place to sleep. On the sides there are small sides.
• Sofa bed with sides around the perimeter. This model will not be displayed, it has the same size. This option is purchased for children up to 4–5 years old, especially for those babies who can toss and turn in their sleep. On all sides of the sofa there are high fences that can protect the child from falling.Buying this type of furniture, you allow your child to get his corner in the house where he can spend his free time. Such models often have special boxes installed below.
• Sofa book. This model can be quickly laid out at least daily, as it has special characteristics. Part of the product from below, which is close to the floor, does not move during disassembly, for this reason the floor will not be damaged. Such a product is considered the most durable and reliable.
• Folding. This option will last a long time. In the unfolded state, the sofa will be 2 meters in length. There are in such a sofa as the boards, and storage boxes.

In the girly room you can buy a round bed with sides of muted soft tones. You can add to this bed an elegant canopy. This idea is usually very popular with modern girls, because many babies call their bed as a bed for a real princess, and for this reason canopy and lacy bedding will come in handy.

In addition to the beautiful appearance, such a canopy will be able to protect the girl during her sleep from bright sunlight.

Boys from an early age are beginning to be passionately involved in cars, and for this reason they will be very happy with the beds in this design. There is where to show designer creativity, and then a wooden sports car can become a comfortable bed, whose sides will be part of a typewriter. The little man will feel comfortable on this bed.

Children's sofas are:

• direct - the most popular sofas, having the usual forms;
• products in the form of transformers or more convenient pull-out products;
• corner products - they are rarely bought in the nursery: they are quite large and will look great only in a large room;
• square sofas, they are often released with sides that have smooth lines;
• the most popular models of sleeping sofas in the form of sports cars or favorite animals.

The safest for a child can be considered a product with a frame of 100% wood. Outwardly, a tree always looks more beautiful, and if you take care of it according to the rules, it will be able to last such a wooden product for a long time. A frame made of oak or birch wood will not be cheap, and not everybody can buy such a product.

In the cool seasons of the year, the soft sides will additionally protect the child from the cold breath of air in the form of a draft. High and soft sides will prevent your baby from many other negative effects. So, they will not allow him to wake up from too bright light or loud noise. Soft foam beads are usually warm when compared to iron and wood rim, so it is much more comfortable to sleep on such a product. The child’s sleep will not be disturbed if he accidentally touches the cold side, as often happens when parents buy cots for their babies without soft sides.

The shape and parameters of the product are chosen in direct proportion to the place of the room it will be placed.

The sides can be of different types.

• They can be placed only on one part of the sofa, and this means that the sleeping space will be fenced in only partially. This is extremely convenient for the growing up baby, who will be so much easier to get out of his bed.
• Boards from all possible sides, that is, the entire place to sleep will be completely enclosed, which is just perfect for the child in terms of safety. However, the baby will have to accept the fact that every time he gets out of bed after sleeping, he will have to overcome the obstacle.
• Borders in a standard arrangement that will not change the original location. There may be 2, like a traditional sofa, or 2 more to provide much more security. These are types of furniture with parts that do not change.
• Removable side. With their help, it is extremely beneficial to organize free space on the couch: during the day it is space for active games, and at night it is a place for dreams.
