Standard bed sizes
The size of the mattress for the bed can vary depending on their purpose. In European countries, used markings (centimeters), which is different from the unique American (inches). If you already have an Italian bed, then the mattress, works by an American company may not be suitable. A good example of difference is the king size bed King size 80 by 78 inches and a standard mattress. If we translate the dimensions into the measurement characteristics that are usual for us, then we get fractional quantitative 203.2 and 198.1 cm.
It is recommended to always purchase models of the same brand / brand, or to order individual options for their own parameters.
Next, we propose to study the standard sizes of products:
- single models with a width of 80 or 90 cm and a length of 190-200 cm;
- for one-and-a-half sleeping places 120х190-200 cm;
- classic double 140-210 x 190-200 cm;
- children's options with a width of 60-80 and a length of 120-160 cm (for newborns and preschool children of school age).
Note that for teenagers, you can pick up single or lumps with a width of 80-90-120 and a length of 185 - 190 centimeters. If your bed has an unusual round shape, then the size of the mattresses on the bed will be between 200 cm in diameter and 230 cm.
More about height, type and construction materials.
On the modern market of mattresses are presented two types of designs.
- Spring - distinguish products with dependent and independent springs (each element is placed in a separate glass). The latter are more convenient to use, better support the spine and adapt to any body shape. They have the exact number of springs (256) per square meter.
- Springless - made from artificial or natural latex, coconut fiber and other synthetic materials.
With regard to height, you can see the following indicators:
- children's non-spring have a height of 6-12 cm;
- children's spring - 16-19 cm;
- non-spring adults - up to 24 cm
- spring adults - 18-32 cm.
It varies depending on the selected filler. If you have already decided on your room and have chosen the size of the mattress for the children's bed, then study the hypoallergenic materials.
Among the natural emit elastic latex, sisal and coconut coir, which are perfect for the bed of a newborn. Also used in the production of felt, natural wool, horsehair. The polyurethane foam passes air perfectly, the mattress from memoriform, memilatex will become durable. The memory effect is different viscoelastic foam, which adapts to the position of the body.
Rules and selection criteria
Of course, purchasing a product must first take into account personal preferences and health. Before ordering, be sure to consider the height, weight category and age needs of the person. If hard is best for the full, then a soft mattress is suitable for thin ones. A person with an average build will be able to comfortably sit on anyone. If a person is over 50 years old, then the choice should fall on a soft orthopedic mattress.
When buying a mattress for newborns, schoolchildren or teenagers, limit yourself to rigid springless models made of synthetic foam-type materials. Durability is one of the selection criteria, as children often frolic, jump and walk on their beds. The thickness of the mattress for the bed should be from 3 to 8 cm, and the filling with coconut fiber or buckwheat. The height of the mattress for the bed should exceed the side of the furniture by a few centimeters, as it can sit down during use.
On a double bed for two adults, an independent mattress with an average level of rigidity will suit. When moving from one side to another, the base remains unchanged.
In length, it should not be short or hang over the edges, about 15-20 cm more than the growth of a potential client. The width of the mattress for a single bed will be from 80 cm, and for two from 160 cm.If your child often spends time sleeping with you, then it is better to take a bed with a width of 180-200 cm.
