You've heard of gaming chairs, but what is a gaming bed? Find out more about this latest space-saving bedroom innovation with a gaming setup.
Calling all fellow gamers (or parents of gamers)! You will have heard of gaming chairs, but what is a gaming bed? This is the latest space-saving bedroom innovation that combines a gaming setup with a sleeping solution. So, let’s take a deep dive into this new furniture genre and explore all the benefits…
Gaming beds explained…
A bed designed for gaming offers the best of both worlds for gamers of all ages. Let’s start with children. Usually, they will have rooms full of toys, books and games. As the average modern home has considerably smaller bedrooms these days, space is often at a premium. By combining a gaming setup and a bed, you can maximise space in your child’s bedroom.
In some cases, there’s also no need for an extra chair or desk, as many gaming beds come with built-in shelving. Ideal for use as a desk or for storing games consoles, there’s usually room for a monitor, so they can watch movies too. Some gaming beds can also be used as a bunk bed, perfect for siblings sharing a bedroom or for those last-minute sleepovers. A gaming bed usually has an eye-catching design, and some models have LED lighting.
5 Benefits of a gaming bed
We’ve listed five benefits of having a gaming bed below:
-
Perfect for gaming enthusiasts
This type of bed is ideal for any gaming fanatics, but particularly children and teenagers. If they spend a lot of time in their bedrooms gaming, this combo setup provides a full-sized single bed and comfort for gameplay. -
Ideal for compact bedrooms
Children’s rooms can be hard to keep tidy, especially messy teenagers! A gaming bed reduces the number of furniture items, creating more space (once you’ve picked up their clothes from the floor!). Some models have built-in storage too, so you can hideaway clutter. -
Increase bedroom floorspace
If there’s not enough floor space for a separate gaming chair, this combo setup is the answer. Your child or teenager can enjoy greater floor space, which means more friends can spend time with them at home. Some models are built as bunk beds, or the extra space could allow for a trundle bed for sleepovers. -
Supportive bed frame
Gaming beds are usually sturdy and robust, equipped with a solid bed frame and a supportive mattress. This enables your child or teenager to enjoy a restful night’s sleep, as well as supporting them when they are in full gameplay. -
Added storage and desk space
Some gaming beds come with added benefits such as built-in storage and shelving, so they can double up as workspaces for homework. This enables your child to study and enjoy gaming via a desk fitted within the structure of the bed. And this type of bed can usually hold a screen and gaming accessories, maximising gameplay.
