I would definitely opt for the full bed over the loft. The first link is the bed my boys have. The lower bed is really low to the ground and my eleven year old doesn't like it anymore. I think the full bed is the best choice.

I think they enjoy sleepovers for a long time, right up thru high school. I would get the double or queen bed in the second link because altho the first one is 'cool' you always have to duck your head when making up the bottom bed and you have to duck when on the top bunk and it LOOKS 'cluttered' to me. I just don't like that big jungle gym look. I like the white bed. It's very pretty and her girlfriends can sleep with her in it no problem.

My favorite one is the first white one. I think that one she will use and like for years to come. My dd is 12 and we got her a white bedroom set a couple of years ago. We went with the double bed and it is great for sleep overs. I also think they continue sleepovers through high school. I know I did when I was younger!!

I still don't like the loft beds. They look cluttered and boyish to me. The other white one is pretty, but I can see her stubbing her toes a lot because there is no 'underneath' to it. What does your daughter want?

This is a space saver the extra bed for friends and drawers underneath to save on space in the room. I love it.

Jade has the bed with drawers under it just not the extra mattress.

Bronoc Loft Twin Bed

Cute bed

Summer Hill White Full Bed

This one is pretty. I think I like this one better.

Sears Loft Bed

I think this loft bed would appeal more to a girl, than the bronco one.

Sears White Full Bed with drawers

This white bed is pretty, too.

My poor teens are just stuck with twin beds, but no one is complaining. Sarah has a white curved metal headboard and Emily has a white wooden headboard on hers.

Both my 9yo dd and I like the last one that Dawn linked to best.

Emily was just down here looking at the beds. She is 14.
