1. Twin over full may not have the same ring to it as aces over eights, but it could be a great poker hand when it comes to resolving your kids' "top or bottom" bunk disputes. With twin over full bunk beds, the top may be more fun, but the bottom is bigger. Everybody wins.
2. Even bunk beds don't always use 100% of the space that they take up.

8. In case you're wondering about mattress sizes, the difference between twin over twin bunk beds and full over full bunk beds is 15 inches. The first takes a 39W by 75L mattress and the second a 54W by 75L mattress.
