Moving to Castle Rock? Don’t Forget Your Sleep
Moving to a new home means boxes, schedules and a very long to-do list.
Read articleYou’ve decided it’s time for a new mattress. Now comes a question that trips up a lot of people: what size?
Bigger isn’t always better, and smaller isn’t always smarter. Here’s how to pick the size that fits your body, your partner and your bedroom.
Mattress sizes at a glance
| Size | Approximate dimensions |
|---|---|
| Twin | 38" x 75" |
| Twin XL | 38" x 80" |
| Full | 54" x 75" |
| Queen | 60" x 80" |
| King | 76" x 80" |
| California King | 72" x 84" |
Twin and Twin XL
Great for kids, guest rooms and smaller spaces. Twin XL adds 5 inches of length, which helps taller sleepers.
Full
Works for one person who wants more room, but it’s tight for two adults.
Queen
The most popular size for a reason. It fits most bedrooms and works for solo sleepers or couples. If you share a bed, though, each person has about 30 inches, which is narrower than a crib mattress is wide. Light movers may be fine, but some couples feel cramped.
King
Wider than a queen, so each person gets more space. It’s a good choice for couples who move around, have pets or just like room to stretch. It also needs a larger bedroom.
California King
A little narrower and longer than a standard king. It’s a good fit for tall sleepers who need the length, and it works in rooms where a standard king feels too wide.
How to choose
- How many people sleep in the bed? Couples often like king for the extra room.
- How tall are you? If your feet hang off, consider length.
- Do kids or pets join you? More space can help.
- How big is the bedroom? Leave room to walk around the bed.
- Do you want an adjustable base? Size affects which options are available.
Measure first
Before you shop, measure your bedroom and think about doorways, hallways and stairs. A bed that fits the room but not the entryway can cause headaches on delivery day. Ask about delivery and setup when you shop.
