Sizes and weights are the outside dimensions and product weights as listed on the Archic product pages. The maker's own VersaLoft site shows photos but does not publish dimensions to compare. Every page offers Twin and Full; the Bunkbed also offers Twin over Full.
Mission Bed and Mission Bed w/ Safety Rails
The standard Mission Bed is 79 inches wide and 32 inches high, with a 43-inch depth in twin and 59 in full. The safety rails version lists the same outside size but a higher weight. Its page text does not describe the rails beyond the title. Both pages say the bed can be used with the 2-piece drawers or the trundle unit.
Mission Daybed and hanging daybeds
The Mission Daybed is 33 inches high outside, with a 17-inch back and 13 inches from floor to the bottom of the siderail. The hanging daybeds list the same 17-inch back and a 21-inch overall height. The rope and chain models list identical sizes and weights, so the difference is the hanging hardware. The rope page says it comes with a rope for hanging, while the chain page says chains or rope, so check which is included before ordering. The chain page also says that with a standard mattress, use it only where the mattress will stay dry.
Loft beds: side ladder vs end ladder
Both lofts are 75 inches high outside, with 55 inches from floor to bottom of the siderail, and both list the same weights (124 lb twin, 140 lb full). Both pages list pre-installed mounting hardware for a hammock. The difference is where the ladder goes. With the side ladder the outside size is 81 wide by 65 deep in twin (80 deep in full). With the end ladder it is 102 wide by 43 deep in twin (59 deep in full). Pick the side ladder if the wall length is short, and the end ladder if the room is narrow.
Bunkbed
The Bunkbed is 63 inches high outside in every size. It comes in Twin, Twin over Full and Full. Twin lists two 75 by 38 inch mattress sizes, Twin over Full lists 75 by 38 over 75 by 53, and Full lists two 75 by 53. Weights run from 145 lb to 175 lb.
