When browsing through the inventory at a mattress store, shoppers should try out a variety of sizes to make sure they're making the best possible decision. The size of your mattress can impact the quality of sleep you get and your sleeping pattern.
Here's a guide on the seven different bed sizes and the most appropriate body types they accommodate best!
Twin-Size mattresses are 75 inches long and 38 inches wide.
Twin XL mattresses are 80 inches long and 38 inches wide.
Twin-sized mattresses are best for kids and teenagers. They are perfectly sized to accommodate a single sleeper.
If you have a particularly tall child or are looking to accommodate adult guests, consider getting an XL (extra long) twin mattress. Twin XL mattresses are often the same ones you'll find in dorm rooms on college campuses. Make sure you buy extra long sheet sets so they properly fit your XL mattress.
Twin beds are great for your children or single guests in a guest room. They are big enough to sleep comfortably and to allow extra space in the room. That way you can fit more furniture in the room such as a desk or recliner.
A full-sized mattress is 75 inches long and 54 inches wide.
A full-size bed and a double-size bed are the same size. Full size or double mattresses are in between a twin and a queen size. These mattresses are great for someone that isn't ready for a larger bed such as a queen, king, or California king bed.
A full or double bed will often help restless sleepers feel more comfortable. This style also comes in an extra long for very tall men and women. Most adults feel more comfortable sleeping in a double bed rather than a twin even if they are sleeping alone. It also provides extra space if you have pets that like to snuggle.
While these beds can comfortably accommodate a couple, a larger size bed may be more preferable for couples who like their space. If you like to get up close and personal with your partner this is the perfect size for you. Just not ideal if you have pets or children that want to join you.
This would also be a good choice when you're furnishing a guest room. It could easily accommodate someone by themselves or a couple. The smaller bed allows you to fit more furniture in the guest room as well.
A queen-size mattress is 80 inches long and 60 inches wide.
The most popular mattress size for couples is a queen-sized mattress. It is large enough to comfortably accommodate two people. This style does not come in an extra-long size. If you like to have a good amount of space while sleeping this is the mattress for you.
This standard mattress size is great for smaller master bedrooms and guest rooms.
If you like to have plenty of space for yourself or even as a couple this is a great choice. It can even allow some extra space for pets and children. Make sure that you have plenty of space to sleep and grow.
A king-size mattress is 80 inches long and 76 inches wide.
A California king-size mattress is 83.5 inches long and 72 inches wide.
A king-size mattress is a very large mattress that can more than accommodate two people. It is equivalent to two twin-size mattresses. This is the size bed you want to fill up your large master bedroom!
California king mattresses are the extra-long version of a king-sized mattress but they are not as wide. It is still a very large bed that can more than accommodate two people.
There are also custom king-size beds on the market that are even larger, but they come with extreme price tags.
