There are no guidelines for bunkbeds beyond the test but in general a good recommendation would be 200 pounds maximum.

Do not allow a child younger than 6 years to sleep in the top bunk. A child younger than 6 years does not have the coordination to climb safely or to keep from falling out. Place bunk beds in a corner, with walls on 2 sides.

Total Dimensions are approx 61 1/2 high x 102 1/2 wide x 42 1/2 inches deep. Bottom bunk is approx 11 inches off the floor - space between bottom bunk slats and top bunk slats (excluding the mattress) is approx 31 1/2 inches.

Many families use bunk beds because they are an easy way to save space. However, an average of 36,000 bunk bed-related injuries occur every year to children in the United States. Injuries can happen when kids are playing around the bunk bed or when they are sleeping.
