Product Information

The instructions are clear but very basic and tells you two different things about where the support bars go, we found them really hard to put together, maybe it’s because they new me the fabric is still firm and new? I don’t know. Super heavy! This makes it very stable but you don’t want to be carrying it far. 28kg. You can always look at a camping trolley to help. You will allow yourself more storage space, plus you can use your bunk beds for other purposes such as single benches or single beds.

Consumers Score: Campers seriously love these bunk beds! 85% of buyers gave them a perfect 5 stars.

Unfortunately, I had got them all put together, only to find that one of the holes on the top bunk that the safety side panels fit into, isn't actually there! I've examined the pole and there's definitely no hole, so I can only insert one side of the piece, making it useless. If you’ve ever slept on a canvas camping tent bed, you’ll know how comfy they are. In terms of sleeping bags for bunk beds, our young kids slept in these padded Vango Starlight sleeping bags and were more excited by the prospect of who was going on the top bunk, than the softness of the bed, so were very happy with their lot. Once they’re up and in the tent though, as they only take up the same amount of room as one camp bed, there is plenty of space left for the sprawl of kiddo paraphernalia. If you were really worried about kiddy-sleeping comfort though, you could always buy a portable mattress topper for the camping bunk beds, however I found the little ‘lip’ of the edges was great at preventing our wriggly three year old from falling out of the bottom bunk. The side panels on the top bunk naturally stop that from happening. This collapsible duo bunk bed can be separated to make two single beds; the ideal bed for camping or travelling.

But once we finally got them built the kids loved them!! They are full size and I could fit on them too but I wasn’t allowed! :) Take your kids camping bunk to the Peak District with this handy camping guide to the area from Peak District Kids. The Hi Gear Duo Bunk Bed camp beds also seemed like they would be super handy for future trips where we might need to put them to bed in a smaller space than usual. The camping bunk beds for kids were one of the new-equipment successes of our holiday, let me tell you why… Delivered Monday to Saturday 8am-8pm, excluding bank holidays. Once despatched you will receive updates from the courier.While these Go Outdoor bunk beds are great for young kids, you’ll need a different kids of portable camping bed for babies.

Yes I highly recommend the Hi Gear Duo bunk! The bunk beds are portable, practical, convenient, durable and strong. Our kids loved them and took it in turns each night to sleep on the top bunk. They slept really well in the bunk beds, better than they have slept anywhere EVER before – sometimes even until 10am (!) in the morning (although this was also to do with the busy, outdoor, late-night camping lifestyle). Here on this blog, I share my expert knowledge of Bristol with guides, ideas for family-friendly days out and seasonal events to help you make the most of the city. Not sure which person said it takes a long time to assemble, took us 10mins first time we did it, really is super simple. Due to their heavy-duty steel construction most camping bunk beds are extremely strong. Carrying Weight Pros: Easy to assemble, does require a tool, which is supplied. One of the cheaper options on here.

My daughters were 5 and 3 years old when we first bought these foldable bunk beds and as mentioned above, they were absolutely fine on them. I think if you have a child who is used to sleeping in a bed, they’d manage very well, especially with the side panel and lipped edges. If you were at all concerned, you could also separate the bunk beds and just use them as single camping beds, or keep younger children on the bottom bunk. How much do they cost? Bought for the kids to save space when we go camping, we have 4 children but bought one set to see the quality and super happy with them so will be purchasing another set. You can also use them for at home if your kids have a sleepover or you want some portable storage space. Final Thoughts They feel really sturdy – my husband even ended up sleeping on one for a night, during a bed-hopping evening with the kids – you know the kind. I’m 5’8″, so you can get an idea for the length of the bunk bed in the photo above. There’s an awful lot of construction that goes into a setting up camp, even with an inflatable Berghaus tent. I have to say rolling things up – mattresses, sleeping bags, you name it, is my LEAST favourite part of the camping experience. I think this is partly why the Hi Gear camp bunk beds appealed to me! I like the fact there’s no faffing around with pumps, and no issues with having to deflate beds like you get with blow-up mattresses.
