I have one upstairs in 'their room' that goes up to the spare bed. This is a regular bed height on a metal frame.
The bin is something like this: http://www.rubbermaid.com/rubbermaid...=HPProd2936118
Then I put a standard bed pillow flat across the top and then a small throw blanket ontop of that. Then I push the ramp in front - with the traction control it doesn't move. It works for us, but you have to be comfortable  | Now see, I don't have a creative or artistic bone in my body. I just cannot come up with ideas like these. You practically have to draw me a diagram! Great ideas, thank you!
