Choosing a bed for a teenager can be a bit of a minefield. Sometimes, it seems impossible to make them happy, whatever you do!
Luckily, we at Cuckooland are here to help. With our handy guide to beds for teenagers, students and young adults, you can find furniture to impress even the most hard-to-please teens.
Whether it’s a gaming bed, a high sleeper or a spacious small double, we’ve got the perfect hibernation station for your awesome adolescent. Get ready not to see them until the afternoon!
1. Trasman Podbed Gaming Highsleeper with Chair Bed 120x200cm
If your teen is gaming mad – as so many of them are! – a gaming bed is a sure-fire hit.
The space under the dark grey Trasman Podbed Gaming Highsleeper is a cosy cave that’s perfect for teens who like to lurk in their lair and only come out to search for loot boxes! It also has built-in LED strip lighting around the desk to illuminate their quests.
Friends are so important to teens, and the chair bed offers a place for their mates to stay over after a long day of battling enemies together. Parents will be pleased to know there’s plenty of built-in storage to keep the cave tidy too!
2. Lars Low Cabin Bed
The Lars Low Cabin Bed by Cuckooland is a more compact choice for teenagers who need storage and a bed for friends on sleepovers.
The three storage drawers offer space for teens to keep their all-important gadgets close by – including their phone, iPad, AirPods… the list is endless, right?!
Meanwhile, when a friend stays over so they can ‘revise’ together (aka. discuss all the important gossip from school!), they’ll be able to slide out the included trundle drawer and be instantly ready to host!
3. Vox Stige Single Bed with Trundle Drawer
The Vox Stige Single Bed is a teenage dream worthy of Katy Perry!
The bed can be customised to suit your strong-willed adolescent’s tastes. Add the optional ladder frames on one or both ends of the bed to give them a place to hang lights or décor. Some trailing plants will help them create an on-trend boho aesthetic. Then, choose whether to add on the optional storage boxes, organisers or corkboard – there’s even a dartboard!
Underneath the bed is a trundle drawer that’s ideal for storing clothes, shoes or gadgets. There are multiple options here too, as you could opt to upgrade the trundle to a pop-up bed, for sleepovers.
4. Harper High Sleeper Bed with Desk, Wardrobe & Storage
Does your youngster need somewhere to revise for their GCSEs, A-Levels or further education?
Then consider the Harper High Sleeper Bed, which comes with a built-in desk, as well as a corner wardrobe, drawers and shelving. Teens will love putting their own stamp on this bed by adding décor to the shelving behind the desk and creating their ultimate study space.
The spacious wardrobe provides room for even the most fashion-conscious teen’s clothing collection. This is the perfect allrounder for a young adult with limited bedroom space!
5. Vipack New York Small Double Bed
Is it just us, or are teenagers getting bigger?! Maybe it’s something in the water?
If you’re worried about how you’re going to stuff your gangly teen into a single bed, then perhaps you should consider a larger option. A small double bed is a great compromise that gives them more room to starfish, whilst ensuring they still have space for other furniture.
The New York Small Double Bed by Vipack boasts a modern, metallic look that teens will surely find ‘dope’ (which means good!)
6. Vox 4 You Storage Bed
Seeking a bed suitable for a student, but already have a desk? The Vox 4You Bed with Storage Shelves might be the ideal choice.
This clever bed is available in a European Small Double or King size, to give young adults plenty of space to spread out. The white finish is mature and stylish and will fit with whatever the popular interior trend of the day might be.
The real reason this is such a great bed for students, though, is the storage in the base of the bed. You can add optional storage boxes to this, creating the perfect containers for holding their books, notepads, revision guides, and anything else they need to ace their next exam!
7. Aviary Triple Bunk
Does your teen need a bigger bed, but also still needs to share a room with a younger sibling?
A bunk bed with a double bed on the bottom and a single on top could be the answer. This type of bunk bed will offer teens the extra space they crave, whilst still giving younger kids the excitement of climbing up to the top bunk each night.
Shelves running alongside the bed and storage drawers underneath give plenty of space for teens to keep their belongings private, away from prying younger eyes!
8. Vox Retro Single Bed
Sometimes, the simplest option is the best. Especially as teens approach adulthood, they’re likely to seek a more sophisticated look with their décor. No one wants to come back from Uni for the weekend to be faced with Spiderman bedding!
The Vox Retro Single Bed is perfect for creating a cool and contemporary feel in a young adult’s room. Pair with a retro record player and some colourful wall art to create a stylish mid-century look.
Add the matching furniture in the Retro range, including a wardrobe, desk and bookcase, and you’ll have a room they’ll be proud to return to!
9. Vox 4 You King Four Poster Bed with Customisable Storage
Finally, if you’ve got the space, and you really want to treat your youngster, the Vox 4 You 4 Poster King Bed has to be the ultimate bed for teenagers.
This king-size four-poster bed offers plenty of space for your teen to stretch out, and will easily accommodate them into adulthood. There’s a plethora of storage in the bed base and behind the headboard, and you can also add the raised mattress mechanism, to maximise the space under the bed. All this means your teen will have room for everything they need.
There’s even the option to add a screen, which you can combine with a projector to turn it into a cinema bed! Warning: Your teen may never leave their room again!
