The Price Factor Revisited

If you have visited various online retail shops, you will have noticed the wide range of prices as well as various models to pick from. If you are like the majority of people, you may be wondering, what could possibly be causing the prices to vary so drastically? One bunk bed will cost $300 while a vaguely similar looking one will cost $1000! While there is no definite reason for the price variance, there are various factors that you can consider when purchasing a bunk bed, so you can get the best bunk bed for the best price.

To begin, let’s start with the most obvious and top priority factor that will alter the price of your bunk bed. Quality is probably the first thing you thought about when considering a bunk bed. After all, safety is first priority to you and your children! Often times, but not always, as the price goes down, the quality may also fall with it. You can definitely tell in many cases as the materials used to build the bunk bed may look a bit more fragile. The wood used to build the bunk bed, while sturdy and heavy, may not be as long lasting as more expensive bunk beds. The reason being is that while each bunk bed is built with quality, not all are built to last. Your best bet is to find a good balance between quality and price in order to maximize longevity while saving some money.

Secondly, we all have to come realize at some point that children just won’t settle for something dull and boring looking. Bunk beds can often rise in price as more aesthetic attention and design goes into play. Bunk beds that typically look very simple will cost less while bunk beds that many decorative details will cost a little more.

Lastly, size and bunk beds with add-ons will add a hefty bit to your price. For example, you will see various bunk beds with attached desks, dressers, and other additional furniture will tend to drive up your cost. Size is another factor. You will find a price difference between twin over twin beds and twin over full beds.

Often times, you will find that price varies without much reason. There are many small factors that come into play such as brand name, mattresses, and other small factors but for the main part, the three common factors that you will mostly consider is quality, design, and size. The best bunk beds usually come from a balance between all factors considered. Good luck with your search for the perfect bunk bed!
