Wooden Loft Beds

Many people really enjoy the look of wood furniture in their homes, and when considering a loft bed, are attracted to these beds made with wood.

I too think wood is an attractive material, as I find the look of wood, warming and welcoming, and has a look that can't be substituted with anything else.  This is one of the benefits of having the bed made of wood – it simply looks nicer than a metal bed, but only if you have a conservative nature.  For those who prefer their home in a contemporary style, they might still prefer a metal bed to fit in with the rest of their décor.

Although metal beds can be sturdy, they possibly wouldn't compare with the sturdiness of a wooden bed.  This is especially so, with beds that have steps leading up to the bed on top.  Some of these have steps that are quite large and wide.  This offers a secure method of reaching the bed, especially for smaller children.  Metal beds often just have rungs to reach the bed, therefore making it easier to have an accident due to a foot slipping on the way up or down.

One thing to keep in mind though if you are considering a wooden bed, and that is if you have a creative child, it is easier for them to put their own mark on a wooden bed, than it is for them to do the same with a metal bed.  One lady was telling me, that their son enjoyed carving, and therefore used his wooden bed for his artistic efforts.  Needless to say, she thought afterward that a metal bed would have been a better choice in her instance.

There are some very attractive wooden loft beds around, and it shouldn't be too difficult to find one that you will find attractive both for their looks and their price.
