Trundle Beds for Adults
I’m glad that you found my site. When I first started to do research on buying a trundle for our family cabin up at the lake, I was disappointed in what I found. Mainly, because there just wasn’t very much information on buying and what types were available to buy. This was a while ago, but I thought I would put all the benefits we have found having trundle beds for adults at our family cabin of only 1200 sq. ft.
We have two large rooms on the first floor. They consist of the kitchen with a bar area, and leading to a very large living area with a fireplace. We usually have at least eight adults up on the weekends, along with four children. The cousins love to get together on long weekends, just hanging out and having fun. We go boating and waterskiing during the days. Sometimes someone catches some fish for us to eat at night. It was all a lot of fun, until nighttime and every one wanted to get a good night’s sleep. I’ll explain what we used to do at night when everyone was there. We would be sleeping on blow-up camping mattresses downstairs and sleeping bags upstairs in the two bedrooms, while the two queen beds in the bedrooms were occupied by my elderly parents and my husband’s parents. In other words, we needed to rectify the sleeping situation.
Since we didn’t have much room for more beds, what we decided to do was to buy four sets of trundle beds. Most trundle beds roll right under another bed, making them lower to the ground than a standard bed, but still as comfortable as a traditional bed. We bought two that just slide under the upper bed/couch. These are the ones that we put in the bedrooms upstairs and left the queen beds for sleeping, too. The other two that we chose are the kind that pop up to standard height of the other bed, making it a king size width. They actually can be secured together so they won’t be sliding apart. Anything would have been better than what we were doing! We bought them online, had them delivered to the cabin, set them up and have had great sleep ever since.
Our parents sleep in the queen beds upstairs still. We put one set of the trundle beds in each of the bedrooms also. So four people can sleep comfortably in each bedroom and four people sleep downstairs in each of the trundle beds.
When I first needed to get better sleeping conditions up at the cabin, my first thought was that they don’t make trundle beds for adults. Gosh, was I wrong! I had always just seen trundle beds in kids’ rooms. I have to say that they are really comfortable, even for my cousin’s husband who is quite large. He sleeps great at night.
We have fixed our dilemma about sleeping up at the cabin with our trundle beds for adults. I forgot to mention, that even our teens sleep comfortably. Yes, they can still sleep until noon even in a trundle bed!
So if you need more sleeping room for your family, whether it is just at your home or a vacation home, don’t forget that trundle beds for adults are comfortable, practical and a sleeping blessing for large family gatherings. Plus, you have great seating during the day, since they are large sofas for sitting on. Perfect way to solve your sleeping problems.
