Buying
a mattress that is too small is one of the biggest mistakes we see from new
bed-buyers. Many couples start out sleeping on a "double," also known
as a full size mattress. These full size mattresses are 53” wide which –when
divided by two – leaves each sleeper exactly the same space as a crib mattress! In
my opinion, this is not enough room for the average adult to get a consistent
good night’s sleep. Here is some info to help you choose the right sized bed
for your needs.
Twin Mattress
A
twin mattress, also known as a single mattress, is the smallest possible
mattress size we have available. Twin mattress dimensions are
approximately 38 inches wide by 74 inches long. Both twin and full sizes are
approximately 74 inches long, which may be too short for some adults,
especially those over or close to six feet tall. There is an extra-long
version for taller people that are approximately 38 inches wide by 80 inches
long.
Recommendations: Twin mattresses are great for bunk
beds or in rooms that are tight for space. The XL twin is a popular choice in
college dormitories and other smaller bedrooms with taller users.
Full Mattress
A
full mattress, also known as a double mattress, is approximately 53 inches wide
and 74 inches long. This is the size of mattress that most convertible cribs
use once it becomes a “big kid” bed. Like the twin, full sizes are
approximately 74 inches long, which may be too short for users close to or
above six feet tall.
Recommendations: In my opinion, a full size bed has
enough width for a single adult sleeper. We have seen full pass twin
mattress in popularity for teenage bedrooms. Due to
convertible cribs, and many parents’ desire to spend quality time with children
during their bedtime routine, full size beds are being used more frequently
with young children as well, as they provide a comfortable place to rest, read
or snuggle together at bedtime.
Queen Mattress
Queen
mattress dimensions are 60 inches wide by approximately 80 inches long –
approximately six inches wider and six inches longer than a full size mattress.
These extra few inches can make a big difference for couples. This, and the
fact that it fits easily into most bedrooms, has made queen size mattress by
far our best selling size. However, with only 30 inches of personal space
for each adult, this is nine inches less width than if you were sleeping
in a single mattress.
Recommendations: Queen size is a great choice for
guest rooms, couples that have space issues in their bedrooms or for couples
who prefer to sleep close to each other
King Mattress
The
king size mattress dimensions are 76 inches wide by approximately 80 inches
long – this is the equivalent space of each partner having space equal to two twin
XL mattresses. This is a big mattress: its size might make it tough for
you to fit it into a room, maneuver around corners or haul up a set of stairs, so
make sure you measure first.
Recommendations: In my opinion this is the ideal choice for couples. Every year, the king size seems to grow in popularity. I think this is largely to do with the size of the master bedroom found in most new homes. Not only does it allow both partners enough personal space, it also allows room for the mornings when your “alarm clock” is a welcome visit from kids or the family pet.
