If you live in a college dorm, you know that saving space is a major concern. You're going to need space for your books, a desk, and of course, room for your friends for all those 'Animal House' parties you plan to throw. Then you have the sleeping arrangements. That queen size bed takes up a lot of space, and on top of that, you have that roommate who likes to sleep in the nude. Definitely not a situation you want to be stuck with over the semesters. What are you to do? Well the answer may be simple. A Bunk Bed!
Now I know what you're thinking: "Why should I own a bunk bed? I'm not 10 years old anymore!" Well, you might be (even if only at heart). But even if you're not, do you really want to be stuck in the situation illustrated above? Above all else, they are an economical way to save space and money.
Having a roommate or even two can be great fun for any or all students. However, finding a place for everyone to sleep can be a daunting task, especially within the minimalist confines of dorm rooms these days. Thankfully, with the help of a bunk bed, you can make room for everyone who lives in your dorm. They take up very little floor space, and allow two to sleep comfortably without having to share or fight over the blanket. Have two roommates? No worries, just pick up one of the versions with a trundle unit. This way, three people can sleep comfortably at night (and still have enough room to party hard during the day).
We now know that these beds are great for saving floor space, but how about money? I mean, you undoubtedly work hard evenings and weekends to pay for tuition and on-campus housing. What would be the point of going on and on about how great bunk beds are if finding an affordable one is an impossible mission? Lucky for us, there is a point as finding an affordable bed is easy. Many furniture manufacturers and retailers offer sturdy, high quality beds at rock bottom prices. It's not hard to find one that will accommodate two or three people under 0. A bargain if your roommates (especially if the one who takes your food without asking) all chip in.
What if you don't have roommates, but still have very little floor space? Consider a loft bed. These seem like typical bunk beds, although the bottom area is open and commonly used as a workstation for writing that A+ report (on why bunk beds are awesome).
Finally, just for your benefit, I thought I'd let you in on other options available to you. First off, the futon. These ingenious contraptions are equipped with a bottom bunk that can fold from a full-sized mattress to a couch. Second, a twin-over-full bunk bed fits a full-sized mattress at the bottom bunk and a twin-sized mattress on the upper bunk. Finally, for those who actually live in a large enough dorm room but still have that roommate who likes to sleep naked, a queen sized bunk bed may be what you want.
So there you have it! Now you're equipped with all the information you need to have a good night's sleep, to have enough room to work on those all important reports, and of course, party like it's 1999 (they did party harder back then). So the next time you need a new bed for your dorm room, don't be skeptical about bunk beds. They're not bunk, they're awesome!
