TipToe Bunk Bed

Two kids in one NYC bedroom is a design problem that calls for a smart solution. The TipToe Bunk Bed by Babyletto gives you two full twin-size sleep surfaces stacked in the footpri nt of one — and when circumstances change, it splits cleanly into two individual twin beds. The integrated ladder is reversible, placing on either side to adapt to the room you actually have rather than an idealized floor plan. Hidden hardware keeps the exterior clean — no visible screws, just rounded edges, contrasting colors, and the kind of considered design that makes a kid's room feel intentional. At 67.5" tall it earns its vertical footprint, and at 250 lbs capacity on the bottom bunk and 200 lbs on top, it's built to grow with whoever's sleeping in it. Pair it with the Universal Twin Storage Trundle Bed (sold separately) for a third sleep surface when friends stay over — critical when you don't have a guest room. Made from sustainably sourced New Zealand pine wood and Araucaria hardwood, GREENGUARD Gold certified, non-toxic finish throughout.

The TipToe is designed to convert into two individual standard twin beds when the bunk configuration no longer makes sense — whether that's because kids want their own rooms, the family moves to a larger space, or the room just needs to be reconfigured. No replacement hardware required. Which side does the ladder go on? Either side. The integrated ladder is reversible — position it on whichever side works with your room layout. This matters in NYC bedrooms where the door, window, and closet placement often dictate exactly how furniture can be arranged. What mattresses does it take? Is there a thickness limit? Both bunks take standard twin mattresses; box springs are not required. For the top bunk, the mattress must be no more than 6" thick — this is a safety requirement related to guardrail height. Measure your top bunk mattress before purchasing; exceeding 6" compromises the guardrail's effectiveness. What is the weight limit for each bunk? The bottom bunk holds up to 250 lbs. The top bunk holds up to 200 lbs. Both capacities are suitable well into the teen years. How much ceiling height do I need? The TipToe stands 67.5" tall. Beyond that measurement, factor in the mattress thickness on the top bunk plus comfortable sitting headroom for whoever is sleeping up there. Standard NYC apartment ceilings of 8 feet (96") work for most configurations, but measure carefully and account for the mattress height before purchasing. Does it work with the Universal Twin Storage Trundle? Yes. The Universal Twin Storage Trundle Bed (sold separately) slides underneath the bottom bunk and holds a standard twin mattress, giving you a third sleep surface for sleepovers without needing a guest room. Is it GREENGUARD Gold certified? Yes. Tested for over 10,000 chemical emissions and VOCs. For a piece of furniture kids sleep in every night, that certification matters — it means the indoor air quality in their room meets one of the most rigorous standards available. Can I see it in person at Babesta? Floor inventory changes frequently. Contact our Tribeca store at 56 Warren Street for the most current information on what's on display. Why Babesta Carries It Two kids in one NYC bedroom is one of the most common design challenges our customers face, and a bunk bed is usually the right answer. What matters is whether the bunk bed is actually well-made, looks intentional, and gives you flexibility as the family changes. The TipToe clears all three. The reversible ladder is a small detail that makes a real difference in rooms where furniture placement is constrained by doors, windows, and radiators. The ability to split into two twin beds means you're not locked into the bunk configuration permanently — the bed adapts rather than requiring replacement when circumstances change. The design holds up too. Contrasting colors, rounded edges, hidden hardware — it reads as a piece that was thought about, not just spec'd to a price point. Paired with the trundle for sleepovers and Babyletto's dressers for storage, it can anchor a full kid's bedroom that works for years. Show more
