Coming up with a list of all the details that you need is important when it comes to buying a bed. You need to know which room is the bed for and who will use the bed. A bunk bed is ideal for children. People at times call it as a double decker.
Since children are not particular about sharing a room, this bed is ideal since it won't occupy too much space. There's also an additional type of double bunk bed which has a study table or a computer table at the bottom and a bed at the top. This can still save you space.

The four poster bed is a kind of bed that's recommended only for rooms that are big since this bed occupies a lot of space. This is the bed that you can see in fairy tale movies which has four posts from which drapes can be hung.
It was possibly invented as further protection against cold temperatures mainly because when a person is asleep, the blanket seldom stays in place. It also generates more privacy especially because in those times when this type of bed was created for royalty, there were always wards and maids in the room.
It is also good for trysts between secret lovers. In modern times where bedrooms are usually in controlled environments, the bed's original purpose of keeping warm is no longer pertinent. Thus, the four-poster bed is no longer practical. The posts have also been reduced to an aesthetic function.
You can also consider buying a hospital bed. A great feature of this bed is its angular adjustments so that the occupant can sit up or lay down as preferred. This would come in handy especially for people who have television sets in their bedrooms. This type of bed is ergonomically comfortable than using pillows to prop yourself up while watching TV. Remember, the device Jack Nicholson used in Bucket List which allowed him to watch TV while lying down? A hospital bed is much better.
Modern beds today are very practical because headboard and shelves are already built in.
