How to choose a mattress for a Nizio children's bed?
The mattress for a children's bed must be selected not only according to the child's height, but also to the structure of the bed. What matters is the length, width, thickness, hardness and whether the mattress will be placed on the main sleeping place, on a bunk bed, on a mezzanine or in a drawer. The same size does not always mean the same function.
At Nizio, choosing a mattress should start with the type of bed. You think differently about a classic single bed, differently about a mezzanine bed, and still differently about a drawer for an additional mattress. If you're looking for a ready-made reference, check it out materace Nizio and sizes available for a specific bed model.
First, choose your bed size
The size of the mattress must correspond to the bed variant. For children's beds, the most common choices are widths of 80, 90, 100 or 120 cm and lengths of 180, 190 or 200 cm. For a younger child, a smaller size may be sufficient, but if the bed will last longer, it is worth considering a larger option.
W Nizio single beds confirmed variants include mattress sizes from 80x180 to 120x200 cm. This allows you to choose a bed for both a younger child's room and an older student's or teenager's room. If the room is narrow, a width of 80 or 90 cm saves space. If you want more freedom, it is better to consider 100 or 120 cm.
What mattress thickness fits a children's bed?
The thickness of the mattress affects comfort, but also the safety and proportions of the bed. For confirmed Nizio single bed models, the recommended mattress thickness is 10-22 cm. This range allows you to choose a mattress that is comfortable but still suitable for the structure of the furniture.
In mezzanine and bunk beds, the thickness of the mattress is even more important because it affects the actual height of the railing protection. In the N01 mezzanine bed model, the railing is 47 cm high from the frame. If the mattress is too high, the child will lie closer to the upper edge of the railing. Therefore v Nizio mezzanine beds it is worth sticking to the recommended range.
Drawer mattress: a different rule applies here
The mattress for the drawer should not be selected in the same way as the main mattress. The drawer must slide in and out freely, so maximum thickness is key. In confirmed models with a drawer for an additional mattress, the maximum thickness of the mattress for the drawer is 14 cm.
The Nizio collection includes a 14 cm thick drawer mattress. Its variants are shorter than the standard main mattress sizes, including 80x172, 80x182, 80x192, 90x172, 90x182, 90x192, 100x172, 100x182, 100x192, 120x172, 120x182 and 120x192 cm. This allows the mattress to fit the drawer function and not just the nominal width of the bed.
Mattress for bunk beds and mezzanines
When it comes to higher beds, it is not worth choosing a mattress solely based on comfort. You also need to check the height of the barrier, clearance and entry method. In the N01 mezzanine bed, the standard clearance under the bed is 142 cm and the total height is 195 cm. A higher variant is also available with a ground clearance of 143-170 cm and a height of 196-223 cm.
W Nizio bunk beds the choice of mattress is of similar importance. If the bed has an additional mattress drawer, a distinction must be made between the main mattress and the lower mattress. The main sleeping place in confirmed models has a load capacity of 200 kg, and the mattress drawer has a load capacity of 160 kg. This helps you match the function to how you use it.
Hardness, cover and comfort of everyday use
The N01 highly elastic foam mattress is 14 cm thick, H2 hardness, Alpaca cover and removable cover. These are practical data, because what matters in a child's room is not only the comfort of sleep, but also easier care. The removable cover makes it easier to keep the mattress in better condition during everyday use.
Variants of the standard mattress include, but are not limited to, sizes 80x160, 80x180, 80x190, 80x200, 90x180, 90x190, 90x200, 100x180, 100x190, 100x200, 120x180, 120x190 and 120x200cm. Before choosing, it is worth comparing them with the configuration of a specific bed Nizio children's bed collection.
The most common mistakes when choosing a mattress
The first mistake is choosing a mattress that is too high for a bed with a railing. The second is to buy a standard mattress for the drawer, even though the drawer requires a lower and shorter variant. The third is to select the size only according to the child's age, without checking whether the bed will be used for several years.
It is also worth remembering that the current price depends on the model, size and configuration. Check it for the selected variant on the product page.
