Fact #1. Bunk beds as we know them have a history that's hard to pin down. We know that to bunk, as in to sleep, was a term in common use since the middle of the 19th century. It was likely a term derived from the establishment of military bunkers.
Fact #2. Methods of tiered sleeping show up in history all the way back to the 1400s. Servants often slept on the floor beneath their masters' beds. While these couldn't technically be considered bunk beds, it's an early example of the sleeping design.
Fact #3. Suppose you have two people intending to share the bunk bed you buy. You're all but guaranteed to buck up against an impasse over the top bunk. On these beds, the top bunk is prime real estate, the domain of the child with the superior status. Often, parents will determine bunk assignments by age. They allow the oldest child to choose which bed he or she wants.
Fact #4. You may have a set of twins on your hand. Enforcing anything based on that difference of a few minutes between their arrivals is bound to leave psychological scars. When there isn't a clear path to resolution of the bunk levels, create a monthly schedule. The kids can switch on the first of every month.
Fact #5. If there's a big age gap between your kids, take a good long look at bunks that offer a double bed size. Some are full over full, meaning the beds on the top and the bottom fit full-size mattresses. Others only have the full on the bottom. In the latter case, the older kid would likely grab the bigger bottom bunk. If he or she is adamant about having a full bed and a top bunk, the former is your best option.
