Why choose a solid wood bed at Chambrekids?

A solid wood bed is more than just a piece of furniture: it's a commitment.
At Chambrekids, each solid wood bed is made in France from PEFC certified wood or from sustainably managed forests. For example, the 140×200 BREHAT bed is made of French solid beech, without glue or harmful varnish.

In the 160×200 version as well, the mid-range model remains made of solid beech with water-based varnish, without solvents. 

Solid wood guarantees:

  • mechanical stability (less sagging than particleboard),
  • a warm natural touch,
  • excellent longevity if well maintained.

Thus, in this category, you will find models designed to last, with a healthy finish, without volatile organic compounds.

Solid wood bed: how to choose wisely?

Which wood to choose?

Beds in beech, oak or solid pine are the most common. At Chambrekids, solid beech stands out strongly in our BREHAT collection, while for children's beds, solid pine is often featured (e.g. Landes mid-height bed)
Always check for PEFC certification to guarantee sustainable forest management: our beds meet this requirement.

Finishes & safety

Water-based paint or varnish without solvents is essential to limit VOC emissions. At Chambrekids, solid wood beds are often made without glue or with very little, for a healthy bedroom.

Also make sure that the bed frame accepts a slatted bed base (some are delivered without a bed base) — the BREHAT 160×200 model for example requires a bed base with rounded corners.

Size & configuration

Remember to adapt the bed size to the age of the child or adult:

  • For a child's room: 90×190
  • For teens/couples: 140×200 or 160×200

What's next? Frequently asked questions

Is solid wood really more durable?

Yes. Solid wood withstands time, humidity variations better, and can be sanded or renovated. Unlike panels, which can deteriorate faster, solid wood offers true longevity potential.

Is it safe for a child (floor, height, impact management)?

Absolutely. For children, choose a low bed, with safety rails if needed. Our Landes mid-height bed, for example, is usually recommended from age 6 for safety reasons.
 

How to maintain a solid wood bed?

A simple soft, slightly damp cloth is sufficient. Avoid aggressive or abrasive products. Check screws and fixings over time to avoid any play.

Our pro tip

When you choose a solid wood bed, also order shade samples — at Chambrekids, we often offer sample shipping to help you harmonize the decor.
Additionally, always prefer a fine slatted bed base (e.g. 38 mm) to let the wood breathe and avoid stagnant moisture.
