ds (15 next month) has a double high sleeper and a single underneath it, he chooses to sleep in the single bed.

DD3 17 has a small room so has a single high sleeper and she is fine with that.

you've convinced me... a double it is then...

Now next question... where should I get it from?

ds 13 has a single that was part of a bunk bed system that could convert to a bed and sofa when older. I've stuck to a single as we have his friends over and can fit 3 in a room (1 on sofa/futon mattress, and 1 on IKEA fold out bed/chair thingy). Couldn't do that with a double in there.

Mumbles - I've said no girlies 'til as old as me!!!!!

My DD1 (16) is convinced that she can cram a double bed into her tiny bedroom even though doing so would mean she couldn't actually open the door or get to her wardrobe...

Single high sleeper so he has room for a 3 seater sofa underneath.

<<Mumbles wobbles at thought of ds needing a double for girlies>> before the age of 35.

the boys rooms are too small for doubles anyhow. And girls.

crikey riven... hadn't thought of that! maybe I should stick to her bunk bed or maybe not.... I can't think of anything worse than her doing it in my bed!

they've got singles (15 and 14). This way they wont be bringing girlies home

Dd1 has a double and has done since she was eleven. Only because she moved into the bedroom that had one in already though.
