Which mattress fits on a loft bed?

For a loft bed you should always pay attention to the right height of the mattress, it shouldn't be too high, otherwise there's the risk that your child might fall out of the bed.

Since mattresses on loft beds must not be too high, we recommend mattresses between 10-20 cm. You can find precise information on the maximum mattress thickness for each product under “Measurements and packaging”. Please only use medium-firm mattresses, because children who are still growing should only sleep on medium-firm mattresses.
Some of our loft beds have markings that indicate how high the mattress can be. These markings can be found at the foot of the bed or on the side, at the top of the ladder.
