Boori Kids Neat Single Bunk Bed

The Boori Neat Single Bunk Bed is a playful, low-line single bunk designed for kids who share a room, host sleepovers, or need two sleep surfaces in the same footprint. At just 140cm high, it's noticeably lower than a standard bunk - making it easier for parents to make the top bed and less intimidating for younger climbers.

In short: the Neat Single Bunk Bed is a 140cm-high, 197.2cm-long kids bunk taking two standard Australian single mattresses. The ladder can be assembled on either the left or right side, both bunks can later split into two separate single beds (one with guarded sides for younger children), and it's backed by Boori's 3-year manufacturer warranty (extendable to 5 years on registration). Best in Beds carries all three of the newly redesigned Natural-pine colourways with free delivery across NSW.

What's new in the 2026 redesign

Boori has refreshed the Neat Bunk with a new Natural pine two-tone palette - replacing the older Almond finish across all three colours. The construction, dimensions and safety spec are unchanged, but the timber tones are now warmer and more Scandinavian, and the accent colours have been re-tuned to work with modern kids-bedroom palettes.

• Cherry and Natural - playful warm pink paired with natural pine, softer and warmer than the old Cherry and Almond.
• White and Natural - crisp white with natural pine, a fresh, gender-neutral choice for a shared room or guest bunk.
• Blueberry and Natural - muted dusty blue with natural pine, works equally well in a boys' or shared bedroom.

Why parents choose the Neat Bunk from Best in Beds

• Low-line 140cm height - noticeably shorter than a typical 160–170cm bunk, which makes it easier for parents to reach the top bunk and less scary for younger kids.
• Flexible ladder placement - the ladder can be assembled on either the left or right side, so it works around doors, windows and existing furniture.
• Converts to two single beds - when siblings move rooms or a bunk no longer suits the space, the frame separates into two independent single beds. One can retain guarded sides for younger children (see the Boori assembly guide).
• Strong weight ratings - 150kg upper bunk, 200kg lower bunk (including mattress). Suitable for use through the primary school years and into pre-teen use.
• Australian and New Zealand pine - sustainably sourced timber, LVL structural slats, no metal fasteners visible in the finish.
• Local showroom advice - see the bunk in person at our Campbelltown, Prospect or Warrawong showrooms, and match it to the right single mattresses before buying.

Mattress fit - critical for bunks

The Neat Bunk takes two standard Australian single mattresses (188cm × 90cm), sold separately. Because the top bunk uses guard rails, mattress thickness matters:

• Top bunk mattress - must not exceed 18cm thick so the safety rails sit at the correct height above the mattress surface.
• Bottom bunk mattress - can be up to 20cm thick.
• Recommended pairings - the Eco Kids Bunk Mattress (12cm, purpose-built for bunk beds) for the top bunk, or the Boori Kids Pocket Spring Mattress (18cm, matches the Boori brand) for either position. See our Neat Bunk buying guide for a full mattress comparison.

Assembled dimensions and clearances

• Overall height: 140cm
• Overall width: 137.1cm (with ladder) - 105cm without the ladder
• Overall length: 197.2cm
• Bottom slats to underside of top bunk slats: 91cm (bottom bunk sitting/head clearance)
• Ground to top of top-bunk slats: 100cm (guard rail height above)
• Ladder base to bed: 36cm (ladder footprint clearance)

Safety and age recommendations

• Maximum weight (upper bunk): 150kg including mattress
• Maximum weight (lower bunk): 200kg including mattress
• Age recommendation (European EN 747-1,2:2012+A1:2015): not for children under 6 years old on the upper bunk
• Age recommendation (Australian AS/NZS 4220:2010): not for children under 9 years old on the upper bunk
• Guard rails: four-sided on the top bunk with the ladder cutout on the parent-chosen side

Best in Beds recommends using a Boori-appropriate mattress under 18cm on the top bunk to keep the guard rail height compliant with Australian bunk bed safety standards.

Materials and construction

• Frame: sustainably sourced Australian and New Zealand pine timber for the visible components
• Structural parts: plywood and engineered timber (MDF) for stability and long-life joinery
• Base slats: LVL (laminated veneer lumber) - significantly stronger than solid pine slats of the same size
• Finish: Boori's Greenguard GOLD certified paint - low VOC, safe for children's bedrooms (Boori was the first nursery furniture brand to achieve Greenguard GOLD)
