Mattress Sizes – Many Sizes As There Are Beds

There are as many mattress sizes as there are a bed frame. You can find a mattress size for a crib to a California King bed frame. The specific dimensions of mattresses are:

Twin, single – 39” x 75”
Double – 54” x 75”
Queen – 60” x 80”
Olympic queen – 66” x 88”
California queen – 60” x 84”
King – 76” x 80”
California king – 72” x 84”

Buying a mattress size that is too small is one of the worst mistakes you can make. Did you know that double bed frames only gives you as much space as a crib? Most couples want more space than that. It does depend on the size of the master bedroom, but buy as big of a bed as you can fit in the room for maximum comfort.

A full size bed is good for a single sleeper, and only if they are under 5’5” tall.

Mattress Size – Think Ahead For What You Need

A queen mattress size is good for a guest room or a smaller master bedroom. It might also work for a single sleeper that takes over the whole bed. A king frame is best for the couple that wants the maximum in sleep comfort. It is also big enough for the kids to jump in with mom and dad. Since a king is so large, the mattress and box springs are usually two twins so they can be moved much more easily. Think before you purchase the size of mattress that is suitable for you or your family so you don’t have disappointment down the road.
