Can someone tell me the measurement from the top of the bottom bunk mattress to the bottom of the top bunk? i.e. - how much headroom to sit up?

I have these at a vacation house but I can tell you that my 2 yr old easily stands up in the bottom. They are large enough that we can sit and read stories too. The odd thing is the ladder for my older child - there is a half step at the bottom she misses or trips on. No biggie after the first day or two.

What size mattress do you have? We have a 9" but you can fit between 6"-10"?

The top bunk is 72.5" from floor to the top of the rail. Rail height is 12". See dimensions here: http://www.dhpfurniture.com/eng/Products/Bedroom/Bunk-Beds/Details/2595-3137096-Twin-Over-Futon-Bunk-Bed-Black

According to the manual that came in the box, the weight limit on each of the beds is 200 pounds. However, I think the bottom bunk can handle quite a bit more. My 13yo daughter & I lie in the bottom bed together and we are collectively 250 pounds, and I don't feel at all like we are pushing the limits of the bed. If you construct it exactly according to the manual, which takes a couple of hours, the result will be a sturdy, safe bunk bed. We are very happy with this bed. Good luck!

I have a similar question... how high is the bottom of the mattress from the floor? Is it the approx 7.5" clearance from the bottom of side rails or the 13 3/4" clearance from the top of the rails, or somewhere between? thanks!

I am totally guessing here based on my memory. The bottom is as flush with the mattress as possible. The top is likely two inches.

I have a twin and full. The full has a solid base (bunk frame) and the twin has around 8 slats across the bottom. You will need some sort of support. Even plywood with supports would probably suffice.

I did not measure the lower bunk, but it is approximately the same size as a full bed. I can't measure it because I gave it to my son and it isn't here at my house any longer.

Well I also bought a foam mattress and did not buy the bunks and everything is just fine. It has planks about 2 or 3 inches apart so it not like the mattress comes out in between.

I actually got 7 inch mattresses. But I think 6 or 8 would be fine as the top bunk railing would accommodate 6,7,or 8 inches.

I purchased a 8 inch memory foam mattress for bottom and a 6 inch memory for the top,the top mattress do not want any higher because then the child will be with the height of the guard rails almost anyway,they recommend a 6 inch mattress,and they were right,so glad I made that decision,ITS PERFECT,MY 4RS OLD LOVES IT AND SO DOES MY 12 YRS WHO SLEEPS ON THE BOTTOME WHO IS A BIG 12 YRS OLD HE IS 150 POUNDS AND 5"6 WITH SIZE 11 SHOE HAD HAS PLENTY OF ROOM.i JUST MEASURE IT FOR YOU ITS 3 FEET 2 INCHES WHEN HE SITS UP FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE BED ON A 8INCH MATTRESS,HOPE THAT HELPED YOU,REMOEMBER IF YOU PURCHASE A THICKER MATTRESS THAN 8INCH OF COURSE YOU WILL HAVE LESS HEIGHT ROOM

Adults could sleep on the bottom with no issues. I have on numerous occasions. My 120 pound 12 yo sleeps on the top bunk regularly.

I'm sorry, I'm not sure of the dimensions. It was bought for a shore home which I don't currently live in. I think you could get a trundle wonder the bottom full size bunk bed with a small frame or just put the mattrice on the floor. Enjoy it's a nice looking bed.

You'll have to assemble the top and bottom beds all the way to the last set of instructions, which is when you mate the top bed to the bottom bed with the provided dowels in the 4 bed posts. Now, the top and bottom beds are not completely identical; for example, the legs of the top bed appear to be longer than the bottom bed due to the headspace needs in the bunk bed configuration - plus note how the the bedposts extend to different lengths past the headboards.

I currently have the mattress at the highest setting, and there is 15" from the top of the mattress to the top of the crib. The lowest setting is six inches lower than the highest setting, so it appears there would be about 21" from the top of the mattress to the top of the crib when placed at the lowest setting. (My crib mattress is about 4.5" thick.)

I'm 5'4 and when I sit up very straight on the mattress my head just barely touches the top. If the child would be comfortable sleeping in a regular bunk bed with a twin size mattress on the bottom, then they will be fine! I would sleep there with no complaints and my 4 year old is happy there.

I have a queen on the bottom bunk (60 W x 80 L). I have a twin XL on the top, which is 80 inches long, too. This particular bed also comes in a regular twin size over full, but there is a twin XL over queen option. Maybe some of the reviewers had the full/regular twin size? I had a queen mattress prior to purchasing the bunk bed and it fit perfectly on the frame. The ladder is removable. It is just attached by 2 hooks that sit over the top bunk frame.

It's 27 inches from her mattress up to the wood slats that support the upper bunk mattress. My 7 y.o. daughter sits up easily in that space.
