Would it be possible to put a mattress under just right in the floor? Want a bunk bed situation, but my kids can't be trusted. :)

Yes, you certainly can. We did! A twin mattress just fits perfectly sitting on the floor. I even sew some curtains to provide a hideout place for my now 5 y/o. Also, my husband installed rope LED lights along the sides underneath the upper bed and it works perfectly. My child is very happy! :)

A regular twin mattress will be fine. We bought premium memory foam beds. One thing to note is that the height between mattress and second bunch is not that high so a thinner mattress on bottom bunk might be better. My 4 year old can easily bump her head getting out of bed.

Probably that mattress can be placed at two levels....higher for an infant and lower for toddler. We keep this crib at our house for when my grandson visits. Collapses nicely when not in use. Very happy with crib.

I probably wouldn't recommend them for a bunk bed. We got these over a year ago and kind of have a love-hate relationship with them. They're one of the best things we have found so far, but they do not stay put. We had to resort to adding velcro on the bottom to try to make it stick better to the mattress plus holding it down with packing tape. Granted, for a bunk bed, it would seem to me a little to risky to have it slide out of place if someone is sleeping on the top bunk.

Doubtfully. The bottom of the bed is made of plastic (poor conductor of heat), it's filled with air (even poorer conductor of heat) and the top part of the mattress has a felt-like material on it. Also, with a fitted sheet on top of that I think there is plenty of isolation from a tile floor and your kid should be OK. I'd still recommend a blanket if you think the ambient temperature is going to be cool.

yes, this is ideal for another mattress underneath. You could also put the mattress on a very low frame and still fit it. We put a crib mattress underneath coming out, like an "L" shape, and that fit well, it barely protruded past the frame, and allowed space for other things below. A twin size mattress fits well either directly underneath, or in an L shape.

Yes, there would be extra that you could tuck under the mattress. I did notice that what is under the mattress does not slip out easily, so will probably stay under there, if you tuck it under.

The mattress is set rather low into the crib....it could be problematic for a shorter person....unless a thick mattress is used in the crib.�

It probably won't work under mattress. It is real large, took up half of our king size bed. We covered it with a sheet and you can adjust the height by how much air you put in it.

I placed the box spring and mattress on the floor. The rails were between the box spring and mattress. Works just fine. Imagine doing the same without the box spring might work and may depend on your flooring and whether the mattress would slip, or not. These rails are awesome.

thanks for updating dancer2... i would like to get bunk beds for my almost 3 year old, and his 8m old brother for the future. but i also want to be able to sit on the bed with him and not break it. I will not purchase this bed now. Thank you!!

I would not use it for a bunk bed. Even if you anchor the bottom so that it doesn't swing, the "steps" are pretty unstable. I don't think a kid would have a problem getting up but it would be difficult to get down. Now if this is just an extra set of steps for the bunk bed that the kids would just use recreationally I think it would be fun and cute but it defintely wouldn't be safe as the only way up and down the bed. Hope that helps.

We used a bunky board at one time, and also just wood slats (make sure there are enough) and it worked just fine. Excellent mattress, but it's KEY to rotate it.

Yes! I did initially. However, if you put both the mattress & box spring there is just no room on the bottom bunk to sleep. So I took it off. I have had this bunk bed now for 3 months & I am SO HAPPY I bought it. Excellent quality, very strong & the color is just beautiful. My kids adore it too. It took awhile with shipping but it was WELL WORTH the wait! I hope this helps you!

Yes, my kids have these on their bunk beds and I frequently sleep with them. The mattress is very comfortable. Be sure to put it in a solid foundation

Yes but only 3 cross pieces so you need either a box spring or a bunky board or plywood to put under a mattress. We have a toddler in ours with a bunky board so we could put up a safety rail and it works great. We live it.

not sure I understand what That Bed is like, but I would imagine you could work out a way to attach it. It just has a fairly long fabric apron that fits under the mattress or you could fold it over into a drawer and weight it down.
