1. The Evolutionary Design (4-in-1 and 4-in-1)
How does the Palito Bed work and from what age can I use it?
The Palito Bed features an evolutionary design made to accompany your child for up to 18 years. The same structure goes through up to 5 distinct phases:
- Phase 1 - Sofa Bed (0 to 1 year):A support point and cozy space for parents in the baby's room. (Compatible with the trundle bed)
- Phase 2 - Montessori (1 to 5 years):Close to the floor, encouraging autonomy with total safety.
- Phase 3 - Complete (5 to 8 years):Elevated with the reinstallation of 20 cm feet and protected by the Palito rails. (Compatible with the trundle bed)
- Phase 4 - Standard Bed (+8 years):Without the rails, it becomes a classic bed ready for adolescence and adulthood. (Compatible with the trundle bed)
- Phase 5 - Trundle Bed Configuration:The evolution of space. The trundle bed perfectly integrates with phases 1, 3, and 4, ensuring an extra bed for parents or to host friends.
From what age can my child use the bed?
From birth.In Phase 1, it functions as a support sofa bed in the baby's room for breastfeeding and parental rest. Your child can start sleeping in it from the moment you decide to transition them to their own room.
My child is still in the crib—when should I transition them to the bed?
The ideal time varies, but the technical recommendation is to make the transition from 1 year old, or as soon as the child tries to climb the crib rails. The Palito Bed makes this process extremely safe in Phase 2 (Montessori), staying close to the floor to eliminate the risk of falls.
Are the rails, feet, and trundle bed included with the bed?
Depends on the chosen package.When purchasing the complete 4-in-1version, you receive the main base, the 20 cm feet, all necessary rails for transformations, and the trundle bed. If you opt for the 4-in-1version, the trundle bed is not included initially, but the main bed structure is factory-prepared to accommodate it in the future.
Can I just buy the evolutionary bed (4-in-1) and purchase the trundle bed later?
Yes!This is exactly our recommendation if an extra bed is not an immediate necessity for your family. Our system is modular: you can invest only in the main structure (4-in-1) now and, in the future, purchase the trundle bed separately to complement your project with full compatibility.
Can I use both the trundle bed and the drawers with the same bed?
No.Both are designed to occupy the free space under the main bed structure, so they cannot be used simultaneously. Furthermore, attempting to stack the trundle bed on top of the drawers would make the main bed excessively high and ergonomically incorrect, compromising the child's safety and autonomy. You must choose the functionality that best suits your routine: extra sleeping space (Trundle Bed) or storage (Drawers).
My child is already over 5 years old. Is it still worth the investment?
Absolutely.From 5 years old, the furniture goes directly into Phase 3 (elevated with rails and trundle bed use allowed) and then transitions to Phase 4, ensuring more than a decade of continuous use with a single, definitive piece.
2. Structure, Safety, and Finish
Does the bed have any MDF parts in its structure?
Definitely not.Our furniture is 100% MDF-free. The Palito Bed is sculpted entirely from Solid Taeda Wood with 4 cm thickness. A monumental robustness, made to withstand assembly and disassembly for generations without losing firmness.
What kind of wood is used?
We work exclusively with solid Taedawood. Being one of the rare structural species in the world—with superior density and hardness—it delivers an impeccable finish. It is the raw material for high-standard exports from Brazil to the USA and Europe.
Is Taeda not Pine?
No, there is a technical abyss between them. Although they share the same botanical family, common pine is a soft, utilitarian wood for crates. Our Southern Taedais a high-engineered, ultra-resistant wood with FSC certification (conscious luxury and 100% renewable).
Is the bed completely safe for my baby?
Safety is our non-negotiable standard through two absolute fronts:
- ABNT Standard Safety:The spacing of the rails rigorously follows guidelines for children's furniture, eliminating entrapment risks.
- Passive Protection (Zero Sharp Edges):All edges and parts have perfectly rounded corners.
Can I buy an extra rail to completely close the side of the bed?
No.The side opening gap is intentional and essential for autonomy. Completely closing the bed creates a sense of confinement that encourages the child to try to climb the structure, generating risks of accidents. The open space allows for safe entry and exit.
Can I request the rails to be made taller?
No.The rails have an ideal height calculated by engineering and neuropediatrics to provide a passive barrier during sleep. If the rail were taller, should the child try to climb the furniture while awake, the impact of a potential fall would be much more severe.
Can the paint or varnish scratch or be harmful to health?
Not at all. We use premium Aliphatic Painttechnology, which does not yellow and has very high scratch resistance. It is 100% non-toxic and fully cured at the factory: it does not release residues or emit gases, ensuring pure air in the room.
Does the bed support the weight of an adult?
Yes.The robust solid wood structure supports daily use by the entire family. The Twin version supports up to 120 kgand the Full-size version supports up to 150 kg, allowing parents to lie down with total stability and safety.
Are the wood and paint colors exactly like the photo?
Not exactly. Because we use natural solid wood, there are normal variations in grains, textures, and shades—which proves that your piece is unique. Additionally, the perception of the tone varies depending on the ambient lighting and your screen's calibration.
Is it possible to customize the bed's dimensions?
No.Our high standard comes from a production line with millimeter-level engineering. Having a rigid production standard is what guarantees the safety, weight tests, and maximum structural rigor of the furniture.
3. Dimensions and Mattress
What are the size options for the main bed and the trundle bed?
We do not work with mini-beds. We offer two definitive size options for your project:
- Standard Twin Option:Universal comfort for all ages.Main Bed:199 × 99 cm (Height: 44 cm Montessori / 64 cm Elevated with 20 cm feet)Trundle Bed:190 × 99 × 15 cm
- Full-size Option:The dream space for co-sleeping or reading stories.Main Bed:199 × 139 cm (Height: 44 cm Montessori / 64 cm Elevated with 20 cm feet)Trundle Bed:190 × 139 × 15 cm
How does the transformation and use of the Trundle Bed work?
The trundle bed is perfectly recessed under the main structure and slides on soft casters that won't scratch the floor.
Engineering note:The trundle bed was designed for the elevated phases of the furniture (Phases 1, 3, and 4). In Phase 2 (Montessori), being close to the floor, the trundle bed structure must be stored separately until the furniture is elevated again with the 20 cm feet.
What are the dimensions of the approved Cleide mattresses?
To ensure precise fit and rail safety, the mattresses have the following dimensions (Length × Width × Height):
- For the Main Bed (14 cm thickness):Twin Mattress:188 × 88 × 14 cmFull-size Mattress:188 × 128 × 14 cm
- For the Trundle Bed (12 cm thickness):Twin Trundle Mattress:184 × 88 × 12 cmFull-size Trundle Mattress:184 × 128 × 12 cm
Is the mattress height not too low? Is it uncomfortable?
Not at all. In high-standard woodworking, comfort comes from foam density, not the physical height of the block.
- For the Main Bed (14 cm):The thickness is exact to ensure orthopedic support and preserve the useful safety height of the rails. Taller mattresses reduce protection efficiency and are not recommended.
- For the Trundle Bed (12 cm):Thanks to Cleide's high-tech foam (available in D28 or D33), the mattress accommodates adults with extreme comfort, without deforming.
I want to lie down with my child to lull them to sleep. How do I choose the density?
If you only lie down to lull them to sleep or read a story, choose the density based on the child's weight (D23). The high-performance foam temporarily supports the adult and returns to its original state. If the intention is to frequently share the bed all night, we recommend the hybrid D28density, which balances support for the adult and comfort for the child.
Is the mattress included in the price?
No.The mattress is not included. At the time of purchase, you can choose to buy only the bed structure or add the ideal Cleide mattresses directly to your cart.
