The essentials about trundle beds with storage

Trundle beds with storage are an ideal solution for rooms where space is limited. These beds are designed with an ingenious system allowing a second bed to be stored under the first when not in use. Generally, the guest bed is equipped with casters for easy movement. In addition to the space-saving offered, these beds also have additional storage, perfect for storing clothes, toys, books, or bedding. Often used for a child's room, this type of bed is also very suitable for a guest room.

The price range of trundle beds with storage

The price of a trundle bed with storage depends on several factors, such as the quality of the material, the brand, the features offered, or the size of the bed. You can find entry-level models starting from €300. They are generally made of particleboard and with inexpensive materials that are less resistant than solid wood or PEFC certified eco-friendly wood. However, they can still be a good choice if your budget is limited.

If you want higher-end trundle beds with storage, you should expect to pay between €500 and €1000. They are often made of solid wood, whether pine, beech, or oak, or from veneered eco-friendly wood panels. Prefer wood from certified eco-managed forests. This category offers beds of better quality and durability than entry-level models. Moreover, they generally have additional features, such as more spacious drawers or wardrobes.

How to choose your trundle bed with storage?

While price is obviously an important criterion to consider when buying a trundle bed with storage, other criteria are just as crucial.

The size of the room

Before buying a trundle bed with storage, it's important to measure the size of the bedroom to ensure that the bed fits perfectly in the available space. This criterion is valid for any type of bed but even more so for a bed with built-in storage. They are often bulkier than a classic trundle bed.

Number of users

If the trundle bed with storage is intended to be used by two people, it's important to choose a double-sized model for more comfort or trundle beds at the same height. If it's for occasionally accommodating friends or guests, the choice will be easier.

Materials and colors

The materials used for manufacturing the trundle bed with storage are important for durability and aesthetics. It is recommended to choose quality materials such as solid wood, plywood, or metal. In terms of colors, it's primarily a matter of taste! Many colors are available: white, blue, moss green, anthracite, natural wood...

Type of mattress and bed base

The type of mattress is also important for comfort and sleep quality. It is recommended to choose a quality mattress that suits your needs. The same goes for the bed base that comes with the trundle bed. Make sure of its quality and composition. A solid pine bed base is an excellent choice.
