Has the time come to buy a new mattress? If so, you might be wondering whether or not a queen-size mattress is the best fit. Or maybe you would prefer to get a double bed? On the other hand, should you finally splurge and go for a king size mattress instead?

Whatever your mindset, be aware that buying a new mattress for your bed is an intimate, important decision, and certainly one that you have to get right. Otherwise you could end up buying a mattress that is uncomfortable, way too small, and completely unsuitable to your needs.

To prevent you from making a major mistake during the mattress buying process, we’re going to spend some time comparing different mattress sizes for you today. Use this information to determine which mattress size is the right one for your personal needs.

What Is the Difference between a Queen Sized Mattress and a Full-Sized (Double Bed) Mattress?

Back in the day during the 1960s and 1970s, the marital bedroom was ruled by double beds. The funny thing is they were only 15 inches wider than your typical twin size bed. It need to be noted that most of the homes were much smaller back then. Thus, the double sized mattress was the ideal fit for most happy couples during that time. The standard dimension of a full size mattress is 53” x 75”.

Starting in the 1980s, queen sized mattresses began to reach the height of popularity. Nowadays, they are actually still the most popular size currently available.

Whether you realize it or not, the difference between a full size mattress and a queen size mattress is only 6 inches. But the additional 6 inches in length and width is just enough extra space to keep two people from disturbing each other while they sleep. The additional added space makes sleeping next to another person a lot more enjoyable. It’s comfort that we seek when buying a new mattress, so you have to pick one that’s the right size, and queen size mattresses seem to be the way to go these days.

Trying different mattress sizes and choosing the perfect one makes the difference between sleeping comfortably at night and not getting enough rest due to choosing a mattress too small or too big.

The Differences between Standard and California King Size Mattress

Within the last 10 years or so, king size mattresses have really started to make waves. Couples are starting to prefer these mattresses because of the additional space available while sleeping. In fact, instead of getting a bed and mattress for a single person, people sleeping alone are now choosing a twin bed, which is 39” x 75”. As you can see, when it comes to picking the size of our mattress, we’ve decided to go bigger for the sake of the extra comfort.
