Growing young children are a great part of a family, and while you might love your kids with all your heart, the idea of buying them a bed, only to have them outgrow or accidentally break it after one or two years, is frustrating.
“Beds are for sleeping, not stressing!” we hear you say as you search for a way to get your child a youth bedroom that looks nice while lasting at least through to their later teen years. Should you be thinking these things as you read this article, don’t worry.
Furniture Fair has sold youth furniture for over 55 years, and we want to help you find a bedroom set that will look good and last for the duration of your child’s pre-teen years. Read on to learn about one of our favorite collections, The Canterbury collection by Legacy Furniture, and find out if this bedroom group is suitable for your child.
The Canterbury collection comes in twin, full, and bunk bed options for the maximum amount of versatility and convenience. If you have a smaller children’s bedroom, the twin size will fit easily, while a full-size bed will fill out a larger kids’ room.
The bed frame is built using poplar solids and birch veneers for a sturdy, well-constructed youth bed.While not made from solid wood, like beds in the highest quality category, the Canterbury bed will be sturdy enough to last your child until they outgrow it.
If you can’t go out with the space in your room, you can always go up with a bunk bed design. The bunk bed frame comes in twin-over-twin or twin-over-full with a wider bottom bunk and helps save space while giving you two comfortable kid’s beds.
The collection features two under-bed storage solutions to help you stay organized, one being a trundle bed option and a drawer and cubby configuration with storage units. The box trundle can be used as storage space or as an extra bed if necessary.
The Canterbury collection also comes with a matching dresser, mirror, chest of drawers, and a nightstand available in two color options. If you are looking to revamp your child’s bedroom with a great matching set of furniture, the Canterbury collection may suit you.
The unique features and sturdy building methods used in the Canterbury set allows the collection to be in the better category of the Good, Better, Best ranking system. The bedroom group is a good balance between quality and value for the price.
The Canterbury collection does not feature a catalyzed finish, commonly found in the best wood furniture category. While not necessary for a better product, a catalyzed finish helps protect your furniture even more, when your kid uses it.
The Canterbury Youth Bed is designed to appeal to boys and girls of multiple ages and has a warm cherry finish with dark bronze hardware or a clean white finish with bright nickel hardware.
Whether your child likes dinosaurs, video games, sports, or fashion, the Canterbury collection will fit with almost any theme. The Canterbury youth collection is also designed to stay looking good regardless of your child’s ever-changing interests.
If you have a notably taller teen, they may not be suitable for this collection since they may have already outgrown a twin or full bed. For your older children with their height advantage, consider purchasing a queen bed, which will more likely fit them comfortably.
If you are ready to stop buying cheap, flimsy furniture that won’t hold up to rowdy younger kids, the Canterbury collection may be right for you. Remember that the collection comes in two colors and will complement whatever décor style your little ones are into.
Remember that while not the best in quality compared to higher-priced bedroom furniture, the Canterbury bedroom set will provide a sturdy frame that will last longer and additional storage options for even more versatility and convenience.
