Kudl Flash Low Cabin Bed – Single 3ft, White

Description

The Kudl Flash is the simplest way to give a child’s room a proper cabin bed without giving up floor space. It is a low, single 3ft bed in a clean white finish, raised just enough to create useful storage underneath: a fixed cube in the middle and an open bay either side. Slide in baskets, storage boxes or a stack of picture books, or add the matching Kudl Flash drawers later if you would rather keep things out of sight. Because the sleeping surface stays at a normal height, it suits younger children who are moving out of a toddler bed as well as older children and teenagers who want a tidy, modern bed.

At 50 cm high, the Flash keeps the mattress low enough that getting in and out is easy and there is no ladder or guard rail to think about. The plain white panels sit happily with any colour scheme, from pastel nurseries to bold teenage rooms, and the square end boards give a neat, built-in look against a wall.

Storage that grows with them

Underneath the bed there are three spaces. The centre cube is fully enclosed on its sides and makes a natural home for books, board games or shoes. The two open bays on either side are wider and are designed to take the separate Kudl Flash drawers (sold separately), which run on castors. Until then, they are perfect for fabric baskets or a toy box. Note that the two open bays have no base board, so whatever flooring the bed stands on shows through. That is normal for this design and keeps the bed light.

If you already know you want drawers, the Kudl Flash Cabin Bed with 2 Drawers is the same bed supplied with both drawers, and it costs less than buying the bed and the drawer set separately.

Choosing a mattress

The bed is supplied without a mattress. It takes any standard UK single mattress measuring 90 x 190 cm. Because it is a low bed with no guard rail, you can choose a deeper mattress than you would on a mid or high sleeper. The Kidsaw Reflex Foam and Deluxe Sprung children’s single mattresses are made to fit, and you will find them suggested below.

Assembly and care

The Flash arrives flat packed with step-by-step instructions. Two adults with basic hand tools can usually build it in an afternoon. Wipe the white surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh or abrasive cleaners. Check the fixings are tight every few months, especially in a busy child’s room.

Frequently asked questions

Does it come with drawers?

No. This is the bed on its own with open storage underneath. The Kudl Flash 2-drawer set is sold separately, or choose the Flash Cabin Bed with 2 Drawers, which includes them.

What size mattress do I need?

A standard UK single mattress, 90 x 190 cm. It is not included.

How high is the bed?

The frame is 50 cm high, so it is a low bed with no ladder or guard rail needed.

Is the floor visible under the bed?

Yes, in the two open side bays. They have no base board, so baskets or the Flash drawers sit straight on your floor.

What age is it suitable for?

Kidsaw recommends it for children from about 6 to 16 years. It is a standard-height single bed, so it also suits younger children who are ready for a single.
