Test result preview
The Marli 80×160 cm children’s bed from Juskys in a neutral colour offers a comfortable and spacious sleeping environment for children, with plenty of room for imagination and design options. With its generous frame design in the shape of a little house, it creates a cosy atmosphere in which every child can feel safe and secure. The integrated fall-out protection in the form of a fence is not only decorative, but also functional.
The bed already has a slatted frame and is suitable for children aged 3 to 10 years, making it a long-term and sustainable investment. Made from solid pine wood, the children’s bed is particularly easy to care for and hard-wearing.
A potential disadvantage of the cot is that it requires some experience to assemble, as it consists of many individual components. Although detailed instructions for use are provided, assembly can take some time due to the complexity of the bed.
Advantages
- Creative design
- Fall-out protection
- With slatted frame
- Made from solid pine wood
Disadvantages
- Experience in construction required

The product was delivered for our product test in a company box with the company logo and product name printed on it. The shipping box was in perfect condition and was easy to open with a knife. Inside the box was the Marli cot, which was disassembled into many components and carefully protected with polystyrene and plastic packaging. Screws and instructions for use were also included.
Despite the large number of components, it was easy to keep track of everything as the entire set was complete and appeared well organised. All the wooden beams were in perfect condition and left a very positive first impression.

The assembly instructions for the Marli cot from Juskys are complete and easy to understand. All steps are clearly described, which makes assembly easy. The completeness of the parts is guaranteed, all components including smaller parts and assembly materials are present and free from damage or defects.
In terms of the stability of the bed, there is minimal instability at the crossbar of the roof, which means that it may not be strong enough to support the weight of a child hanging from it. However, this should not affect the normal use of the bed.
The edges of the bed are smooth and rounded, with no sharp points, which ensures the safety of the child. The bed’s slatted frame can squeak a little when in use, but it is stable and can support a weight of up to 120 kg.
