This document describes a bunk bed, detailing its assembly, usage, safety warnings, and maintenance. The bunk bed is designed for children ranging from 6 years of age to young teenagers, offering a space-saving solution for sleeping arrangements.

Function Description

The primary function of this device is to provide a two-tiered sleeping solution, commonly known as a bunk bed. It consists of an upper bunk and a lower bunk, allowing two individuals to sleep in the footprint of a single bed. The design includes headboards, footboards, side rails, guardrails for the upper bunk, and a ladder for access to the top. The bunk bed can also be converted into two separate single beds, offering flexibility as needs change. When converted, the headboards with taller posts and footboards with shorter posts can be switched to make the two single beds identical in appearance.

Usage Features

Dual Sleeping Capacity: Accommodates two sleepers, one on the upper bunk and one on the lower bunk, maximizing space efficiency in a room.
Convertible Design: The bunk bed can be disassembled and reassembled into two individual single beds. This feature allows for adaptability as children grow or if the room layout changes, providing long-term utility.
Ladder Access: A dedicated ladder is provided for safe and easy access to the upper bunk. Users are instructed to always use the ladder for entering and leaving the upper bunk.
Guardrails for Safety: The upper bunk is equipped with guardrails on both long sides to prevent falls. If the bunk bed is placed next to a wall, the guardrail running the full length of the bed should be positioned against the wall to prevent entrapment between the bed and the wall.
Mattress Support System: The mattress platform is designed to support a mattress without the need for a posture board or box spring. It is crucial to use only coil spring mattresses on both the upper and lower bunks.
Recommended Mattress Size: Specific mattress dimensions are recommended: 74"-75" long and 37 1/2" - 38 1/2" wide for both bunks. The mattress thickness should not exceed 6 inches, ensuring that the mattress surface remains at least 5 inches (127mm) below the upper edge of the guardrails.
Age and Weight Guidelines: The upper bunk is not suitable for children under 6 years of age. The bed is designed for children ranging from 6 years of age to young teenagers. Each level has a maximum weight capacity of 165 lbs (75 kgs).
Night Light Recommendation: The use of a night light is suggested as an added safety precaution for a child using the upper bunk.

Maintenance Features

Regular Cleaning: The furniture should be dusted regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Chemical cleaners or wax are not recommended for lacquered furniture as they may damage the finish. Solvents, alcohol, nail polish, and polish removers should be kept away from hardwood furniture surfaces.
Periodic Fastener Check: Bolts and screws should be checked periodically and tightened if necessary to ensure the structural integrity and safety of the bed.
Component Inspection: Guardrails, the ladder, and other components should be periodically checked to ensure they are in their proper position, free from damage, and that all connectors are tight.
Replacement Parts: In case of missing or damaged parts, users are advised to contact the customer service department for free replacements, rather than returning the product to the store. Substitute parts should not be used.
Warranty: The product comes with a 1-year limited warranty covering defects in material and workmanship from the date of original purchase. This warranty is valid upon presentation of proof of purchase and is limited to the repair or replacement of defective furniture components, excluding assembly labor. The warranty does not cover products that have been improperly assembled, subjected to misuse or abuse, or altered/repaired in any way.
Warning for Damaged Components: A critical warning states that if the product becomes damaged, and/or components are broken or missing, it should NOT be used. This emphasizes safety and the importance of addressing any structural issues immediately.
