Mattress Sizes and Mattress Dimensions

Finding the right size mattress to buy can be challenging, especially with so many options available. Most brands manufacture all of the standard mattress sizes including Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King and California King, but not every model is available in all of these mattress sizes. The Queen size mattress is the most popular, so virtually every model is available in that size. On the other hand, the Twin XL, Full XL, and California King sizes are not always available for every model. When selecting a mattress size, consider whether you have the space, sleeping with a partner, or how tall you are when shopping. In this guide, we will walk through the all the standard mattress sizes to help you decide the best option for your sleep needs.

Bed Dimensions Size Guide

TWIN SIZE BED DIMENSIONS: 39&#; X 75&#;

Have a tight living space such as a guest bedroom or a child&#;s bedroom? A twin or &#;single&#; mattress offers a good option for these areas, along with daybeds and bunk beds. Adult sleepers may need to opt for the twin-xl for added length.

TWIN XL SIZE BED DIMENSIONS: 39&#; X 80&#;

The twin-xl gives an extra 5 inches of length for sleepers that are taller. It&#;s the standard option for dorm rooms when a twin mattress is simply too short.

FULL SIZE BED DIMENSIONS: 54&#; X 75&#;

Best for one person, a full size bed or &#;double&#; mattress is nice for guest rooms and growing children. The full size bed measurements offer adults added space, though length may still be an issue. Two sleepers would likely have problems on a full mattress, as there would only be 27 inches of space per person.

FULL-XL SIZE BED DIMENSIONS: 54&#; x 80&#;

The extra long full size bed provides an extra 5 inches of length for sleepers that are taller. It&#;s a nice option if you want to avoid upgrading to a queen mattress. Please note that this is a specialty size, which is usually special ordered.

 

 

QUEEN BED DIMENSIONS: 60&#; X 80&#;

The standard queen size mattress measurement is 60 by 80. Queen mattress dimensions allow extra length and width compared to a twin or full size mattress. The width of a queen size bed is 60 inches providing plenty of space for single sleepers who like to spread out. The length of a queen size bed is 80 inches which is more comfortable for an average height adult.

KING SIZE BED DIMENSIONS: 76&#; X 80&#;

On a king or &#;Eastern/standard king&#; mattress, the 16 extra inches of length can mean a great deal to sleepers. This is why it is the mattress size of choice for master bedrooms, as two people would each have around 38 inches of space. Make sure that it will fit in the room before purchasing!

Shop King Mattresses >

 

CALIFORNIA KING BED DIMENSIONS: 72&#; x 84&#;

The California King or &#;Western King&#; adds 4 inches of legroom and takes away 4 inches of width from the king mattress. It is the longest mattress available, except for a custom mattress, making it an ideal choice for tall sleepers!

WHich size mattress is the best for me?

Choosing a mattress size is vital to selecting the right bed. Keep the following tips in mind to pinpoint the best mattress size for your next dream bed:

Contact us to discuss your requirements of Mattress Bed. Our experienced sales team can help you identify the options that best suit your needs.

Size of the Sleeper(s):

A slender person will need much less room than two larger adults. For two people, divide the width by two to estimate each person&#;s sleep room. Having enough space for one&#;s sleep style (such as if you sprawl out during the night) is critical to a good night&#;s sleep.

Size of the Room:

It&#;s true &#; a king mattress would be nice to have. However, there may not be enough space in the room to justify such a mattress. Allow for space on each side to get in and out of the bed. If you have room for 2 nightstands, you could reduce to one nightstand and have a king. As a bonus, make sure that the mattress will fit through the door and any narrow hallways.

Budget:

That king mattress will likely be more expensive than a twin or full mattress. Make sure that you keep in mind any price differences when looking at mattress sizes. Remember that our mattresses on sale can often level the playing field, giving you a larger mattress for less!

Split Boxes:

Do you live in an older home or one that has tight staircases/hallways? A split box spring can be a solution, as you won&#;t be able to bend around corners.

Mattress Height:

If you purchase a thick mattress, you could opt for a low profile box spring, which will reduce from 9 inches to 4.5 or 5 inches. This can be crucial for making it easier to get in and out of bed, and especially for the elderly.

Difference Between Bunk Bed Mattress And Twin Mattress

Ever wondered about the difference between a bunk bed mattress and a twin mattress? You're not alone. Though they may look similar, there are crucial distinctions. In this comprehensive guide, we'll unravel the mystery to help you make the right choice for your sleeping needs. Let's dive in.

What is a Bunk Bed Mattress?

If you've ever found yourself in the maze of a furniture store's mattress section, you've likely stumbled upon something called a "bunk bed mattress." These mattresses are specifically designed to fit the unique dimensions and safety requirements of bunk beds.

They often feature reduced thickness, increased density, and are lighter in weight. They also prioritize certain safety features like flame retardants, and they often come with increased ventilation features to combat the lack of circulation in tightly confined bunk bed setups.

What is a Twin Mattress?

Contrary to popular belief, a twin mattress isn't just a smaller version of a larger mattress. It's a carefully designed sleep solution aimed at single sleepers, whether they're kids or adults.

The classic twin mattress measures 38 x 75 inches, and you'll find them in various materials, thicknesses, and levels of firmness, tailored to a wide range of sleep preferences and needs.

Difference Between Bunk Bed Mattress and Twin Mattress

Here's where things get nuanced. At a glance, bunk bed and twin mattresses can seem virtually identical, especially when it comes to dimensions. But dig a little deeper, and you'll find key differences.

Dimensions and Thickness

  1. Reduced Thickness: Bunk bed mattresses are designed to be thinner to allow safety rails to function effectively. This isn't a constraint with twin mattresses used on standard beds.
  2. Custom Sizes: Although many bunk bed mattresses are the same size as standard twins, you may come across custom sizes tailored for specialized bunk beds.

Material and Firmness

  1. Density: Bunk bed mattresses are generally denser to provide support in the absence of box springs. Twin mattresses offer a wider variety of density options.
  2. Material Choices: Twin mattresses come in a vast array of materials like latex, memory foam, and innerspring, while bunk bed mattresses are often limited to foam or innerspring options designed for safety and longevity.

Is a Bunk Bed Mattress the Same Size as a Twin?

The short answer? Sometimes. Many bunk bed mattresses are designed to be the same size as standard twin mattresses - 38 x 75 inches. However, there are also 'short twin' bunk bed mattresses designed for more compact bunk beds. In essence, while size can often be a match, it isn't a guaranteed similarity.

Why You Can't Just Swap Them

If you're thinking you could just buy any twin mattress and toss it on a bunk bed, think again. Safety features like flame retardants are often mandated for bunk bed mattresses, and the reduced thickness is crucial for the effectiveness of safety rails. Additionally, a twin mattress may be too heavy for the upper bunk, posing safety risks.

How to Choose the Right Mattress for Your Needs

  1. Measure Carefully: Whether it's for a bunk bed or a standard bed frame, always measure before purchasing.
  2. Consult Safety Standards: If you're shopping for a bunk bed mattress, ensure it meets or exceeds federal safety standards.
  3. Test Firmness: What feels like sleeping on a cloud to one person could feel like a rock to another. Always test the firmness level to match your comfort preference.

Conclusion

While they may appear similar, bunk bed mattresses and twin mattresses serve different purposes and are not always interchangeable.

Understanding the nuances can save you not only time but also ensure that you're making the best choice for your sleep comfort and safety.

So, the next time you're mattress shopping, don't just look at the size - dig a little deeper. Your perfect night's sleep may depend on it.
