Criteria for choosing a car bed Rally, requirements for children's furniture

The choice of a children's berth is a difficult, but interesting question. Everything is important for a healthy physiological sleep: from the bed model to the quality of bedding. And most importantly, for the child, his territory for sleeping would bring only positive emotions. The original idea is a Rally bed-car, which is sure to appeal to any boy.. In her childhood imagination, she paints victories in car racing and makes the baby a hero in her own eyes.

What is a

The bed frame, imitating the body of a car (for example, Lightning McQueen), is closely on the floor. In this case, the picture on the walls may contain an image of the wheels. If desired, you can order the protruding wheels, but then the approach to the bedroom place may be limited.

The Rally car bed is made in bright colors, has emblems and accessories similar to the original. The white, blue or red main background attracts with its contrast and similarity with the real colors of fireballs. The edging, depending on the color scheme of the surrounding objects, can be decorated in silver, yellow, red, blue, beige, green. Then the bed will organically fit into the existing ensemble, will not look like a separate object. For attractiveness and originality, the manufacturer can optionally complete the models with the following details:

• driving;
• on-board computer;
• car numbers;
• flags
• Highlights.

In order to rationally use the bed space, it is envisaged to raise the berth using a special mechanism. The lift can work:

• on coil springs (cheaper, but with a short service life option);
• on gas shock absorbers (smooth and silent, even children can do it).

The raised bottom opens up spacious niches for bedding. Their design may vary in number of compartments and configuration. Such a kind of closet for linen or toys can be retractable. The box leaves more often towards the headboard. To do this, it is equipped with one or two pairs of wheels. The condition for installing such a model is the availability of free space for almost two bed lengths.

The height of the mattress for a car bed can vary greatly. In addition, at the discretion of the customer, options with various fillers are selected, characterized by their density and rounded edges. Attaching to the base of the crib with a spring mechanism (similar to an ottoman), the mattress is not removable. It is attached immediately at the time of manufacture, taking into account the desired dimensions.

Stylized beds can be used for babies immediately after the first baby crib, when they no longer need motion sickness, they love cartoons about cars and consider themselves large. Perhaps this piece of furniture will serve as a factor affecting the baby’s desire to sleep separately from adults.

Depending on the age of the child, the mattress is slightly recessed into the wooden base of the frame. Then protective bumps are formed at the bed so that the child does not fall. For older ages, the need for this disappears, so the upper edge of the mattress is at or 15-20 cm above the wooden frame.

The design of the car bed benefits from the use of bed linen with appropriate patterns. A good addition is the availability of near-bed accessories (bedside tables, wardrobe, bedside rug, night lamp).

Material and Dimensions

The raw material for the manufacture of the frame of the Rally car bed is more often LDSP. The stove is lighter than natural wood, cheaper and more practical. Its natural origin allows to ensure environmental safety, to avoid allergic reactions.

Laminated chipboard is used, which, according to the requirements of European standards for children's furniture, has an emission class E1. This means that the formaldehyde content in 100 g does not exceed 10 mg. However, even with this quality of raw materials, the ends of the model are covered with an ABS edge, which prevents the release of chemicals that make up the glue into the air.

A UV print is applied to the bed frame from the outside. For reliability, it is fixed with a moisture-resistant vinyl film, which makes the bed resistant to temperature changes in the room, humidity, eliminates drying of the wooden base and premature cracking. The surface allows for hygienic treatment, to dry the product in the sun, to ventilate in the fresh air. In addition, if the baby with felt-tip pens or a pen leaves his drawings on the surface, they can be easily removed with soap and water.

The bed-car Rally comes in different sizes. The minimum size of a berth is 140 x 70 cm, the maximum is 180 (190) x 90 cm.

Mattress

To meet the wishes of customers, manufacturers of car beds offer a variety of mattresses. Filler Options:

• polyurethane foam;
• with spring mechanism;
• springless orthopedic based on coconut fiber.

Many people find spring mattresses more practical. If you opt for them, it is better when the spring blocks are independent of one another. Springless options are characterized by a longer service life, physiologically correct stiffness, and no electrostatic and magnetic sensitivity.

The main requirements for the mattress are: natural raw materials and good air exchange. After all, the thermoregulatory processes in the body of a small person are only being formed, so his body needs air circulation. Mattresses made of latex, polyurethane foam and coconut fiber meet these requirements.

Adding coconut (for children from birth to the age of five) makes the mattress an ideal item for relaxation, healthy sleep. Due to the presence of lignin in it, the product is quite elastic, so the baby's spine is loaded evenly. The product is moisture resistant, moderately stiff, rotting processes are excluded in it.

Filler for latex mattress is made from hevea (tropical tree). Such material “breathes”, is resistant to moisture, prevents the appearance of ticks and bacteria, and does not accumulate dust.

Polyurethane foam is similar to foam rubber, but more stable, practical. It passes air well, does not cause allergies, is environmentally friendly, fireproof. However, the material can not withstand moisture, therefore, in the places where it enters, active proliferation of bacteria begins. A prerequisite for the operation of such a mattress is airing and turning over every three months.

Selection rules

Correctly choosing a crib Rally means to provide your child with a healthy, sound sleep and a lot of positive emotions. You need to pay attention to the following points:

1. The design must be strong, stable. This will eliminate the risk of injury and fright of the baby with a sudden displacement of the product.
2. In a quality product there can be no sharp corners, chips, cracks, external or internal defects. It is necessary to exclude the fragility of the fastening of the edging, the unevenness of the relief, the different width of the chipboard. It is these factors that indicate a poor-quality process of technological preparation of materials. An indirect indicator is the price of the product.
3. The mechanisms of the bed-car should work smoothly, silently, without the need for the application of force. Savings on structures will lead to their rapid wear, the need for replacement.
4. Lack of smell can indicate the quality of wooden parts, mattress, bedding.
5. The safety of the crib is confirmed by certificates of conformity or a sanitary and hygienic conclusion. This is the only way to be sure that the product will not cause health problems, it is recommended for children to use, it has been tested.

In addition, it is important to choose the right size of a bed in a car bed, as well as take into account the recommendations of a pediatrician regarding the choice of a mattress. Each child may have individual characteristics of the development of the spine, and advice on its formation is different. Choosing a bed in the form of a Rally car, you definitely need to show it to your child. Let him evaluate it from his position, "try it on," confirm the desire to rest on it.
