Different sizes and what they mean

Single Size Mattress

Double Size or Full-Size Mattress

A double size mattress has 48 x 72 (or 75, or 78) inches, (4ft by 6ft) dimensions and is wider than a twin size mattress. It is a perfect choice for people who are 5’5” or shorter. This is the standard double size mattress category.

Queen Size Mattress

One of the most popular styles of mattresses with the couples sharing a bed, a queen size mattress comes with 60 x 72 (or 75, or 78) inches (5ft by 6ft) measurement. Its popularity is due to the added comfort it provides and also the ease with which it fits most of the beds.

The mattress provides extra space to the couples who share a bed, so much so, that they feel they are sleeping all alone on a twin size mattress.
