Trying to sleep on the wrong size mattress can lead to broken rest, aching muscles and daily fatigue. You should spend eight hours of each day in your bed, so it’s important to find the best match possible. If you’re buying a new mattress, don’t just automatically replace it with the same size you had. Consider these guidelines to decide which mattress size is best for you.
Step 1: Familiarize yourself with the mattress sizes available. A twin mattress is 39 inches wide and 75 inches long. A twin XL, which may be difficult to find, is 39 by 80. A full mattress is 54 by 75, a queen mattress is 60 by 80 and a king mattress is 76 by 80. In some areas you may be able to find a California king mattress, which measures 72 by 84.
Step 2: Determine how many people will be sleeping in the bed. A twin or twin XL is only large enough for one person. A full mattress might be big enough for two, but in most cases, two people will be cramped on a full. A queen or king bed is usually a better choice for two people.
Step 3: Determine the heights of the sleepers. A tall person may find that the 75 length of a regular twin or a full mattress is too short to allow him to stretch comfortably. Some very tall people may be more comfortable on a California king, which provides extra leg room.
Step 4: Determine the size of the room the bed will be in. A king or California king is a very large mattress and may not fit into all rooms. Also, since the king mattresses are so large and difficult to maneuver, they may not be the best choice if you expect to move frequently.
Step 5: Think realistically about how much you’re willing and able to spend. Each larger size mattress costs more, both in the initial purchase and in buying bedding for the life of the bed. You may also have to spend more over time for a twin XL or California king because the bedding may be difficult to find and require you to shop at specialty stores.
