Quality or Price? - That is the question... whether it is nobler...

Bunk Beds…...no doubt kids love them, but as parents do you buy the best mattresses available, or something cheaper, or just cheap.
There is a wide range available, indeed we offer everything from a basic budget pack, to new luxury memory foam or pocket sprung ones. Budget limitations are often the leading restriction, and I can understand that (we are of course in a recession and we all have to watch the pennies), but with mattresses, unfortunately you do get what you pay for. Cheaper mattresses do not last as well, are not as supportive, and not as comfortable. Small light children can perhaps get away with a lighter mattress, but what when Grandma comes at Christmas?
Perhaps more importantly, I am amazed when I check the opposition’s listings of bunk beds, as to how many of them sell mattresses that are nothing short of dangerous. Most bunk beds will take a mattress about 7-8” before the height of the safety rails on the top bunks are compromised, and you increase the risk of the child falling. Some unscrupulous retailers sell mattresses that I know are so deep that there will only be an inch or so of safety rail left! I know the British Standard is quite conservative, and realistically and inch or so over the recommended depth would not pose a significant problem, but some take this beyond sensible.
So where is this rant going? Funnily enough, we have recently managed to persuade a supplier to make us a special mattress with a small length spring inside. This means we can get a pocket sprung mattress with loads of fillings and quilting to make a total depth of just 7”. So, we end up with a superior quality mattress, and still a safe as can be.
The same thing applies to memory foam mattresses. Most are sold way too deep for the top bunks, and I hope the retailers can sleep at night knowing Little Johnny might fall out of his bed tonight.
So, to view the range of bunk beds with the mattress especially manufactured especially for our bunk beds, to the highest standards, and still at a sensible price, follow the links.
Sleep safe!
