How we tested
The process of testing the X Rocker Battalion Kids Gaming Bunk Bed with Drawer was a thorough one, taking into account practicality, quality, design and comfort. The bed was assembled by two adults in a bedroom setting, following the provided assembly instructions. The bed's performance, how it stood up to nightly use by two energetic young game lovers, and the ease of using the under-bed drawer were also scrutinised over a three-week testing period.
Design and features
The X Rocker Battalion Kids Gaming Bunk Bed with Drawer is a far cry from the ordinary, blending on-trend aesthetics with ergonomic features, designed to meet the needs of growing children. Aesthetically, this bed is a young gamer’s dream, complete with a gaming-inspired design that lends a large dose of 'cool' factor. Available in a selection of vibrant colours including red, khaki green and sleek grey, it provides an exciting centerpiece for a child's bedroom.
One of the standout features of this bed is the spacious under-bed storage drawer. Riding smoothly on castors, this deep drawer is ideal for storing games, clothes, extra bedding or those toys that always seem to be underfoot.
Construction
The X Rocker Battalion Kids Gaming Bunk Bed with Drawer doesn't sacrifice durability for style. Built with a sturdy solid wood and MDF supporting frame, this bed is designed to withstand the demands of daily use by energetic children. The ladder attaches securely to the right-hand side of the bed for fuss-free access to the top bunk. The top bunk has a weight limit of 80kg (including mattress weight), enough to accommodate most kids, while the solid wooden slats support the mattress for optimal comfort.
Suitability
The bed meets the needs of a broad range of ages, comfortably accommodating two junior to teen gamers. Thanks to the versatile design and sturdy construction, this bed is recommended for children aged 6 and above. It should be noted that the top bunk requires a mattress with a maximum depth of 15cm for safety reasons.
