FULL (54 “X 75”)<br />
It is sometimes and still<br />
called as a double bed; a full-size<br />
bed is 53-54 inches wide and<br />
only 15 inches wider than a<br />
twin size (or stand-alone). For a<br />
couple sharing the bed, it offers<br />
each partner just 27 inches of<br />
personal space — or crib width.<br />
Both twin and full sizes are approximately<br />
75 inches long and<br />
this size may be too short for<br />
some adults. For that reason, full<br />
size beds are perfect for growing<br />
children, singles and narrower<br />
places, and working people.<br />
Full-size beds fit easily into<br />
standard bedrooms and guest<br />
rooms. A full-size bed can be an<br />
excellent temporary bed choice<br />
at affordable prices. While offering<br />
more spacious sleep than<br />
a twin bed, full-size beds ease<br />
young adults to move from home<br />
to their first apartments.<br />
TWIN XL (39 “X 80”)<br />
The Twin XL bed is ideal for tall<br />
people who need more legroom<br />
in bed. It is the same length as a<br />
King or Queen bed. It measures<br />
39 inches x 80 inches and has<br />
the same width as a standard<br />
twin, of which overall length<br />
is 80 inches and which has an<br />
extra 5 inches. Twin XL beds,<br />
having narrow dimensions and<br />
extended lengths, fit into smaller<br />
spaces, and save more space<br />
than standard twins.<br />
TWIN (38” X 75”)<br />
Twin beds are the smallest<br />
standard bed size excluding crib<br />
beds. It measures 38” x 75” and<br />
is designed for single sleepers.<br />
Twin-size beds are perfect for<br />
nurseries, small bedrooms and<br />
guest rooms. It is easy to carry<br />
from room to room and they offer<br />
enough space for small children.<br />
Twin beds and beddings are<br />
also typically the least expensive<br />
of all standard sizes.<br />
CRIB/ BABY (27” X 52”)<br />
The crib or baby bed is at the<br />
perfect sizes as your baby’s<br />
first bed. These sizes are widely<br />
accepted as the standard across<br />
the USA and therefore this size<br />
will fit any standard cot you<br />
purchase for the newcomer. In<br />
general, your baby’s crib and<br />
bed should be fairly firm. Even if<br />
soft mattresses and pillowcases<br />
may seem like a good choice for<br />
parents, the babies need a firm<br />
base because when they lie on<br />
their stomach and they’re upside<br />
down, they can’t get their faces<br />
out of the bed. Press the mattress<br />
down and see how easily<br />
your hand sinks. More resistance<br />
means tighter bed. Make sure<br />
the mattress you choose, whether<br />
it is spring or sponge, is both<br />
beautiful and sound!
