What's the difference between mattress types?

With so many different types of mattresses on the market and new technologies being released all the
time, how do you know which mattress type is right for you? Let's start with the basics.

Most mattresses can be categorized into a few types:

Twin size mattress

A twin size mattress is the perfect mattress size for a growing child or young adult. Your little one can dream big and have plenty of room to grow into their new bed.

Twin XL size mattress

A twin XL size mattress is 5 inches longer than a twin, making it perfect for growing children or adults with a small space. A twin XL is the standard mattress size for most colleges. Plus, two twin XL mattresses together make a king. This setup is ideal for a split adjustable base, so you and your partner can both customize your ideal sleeping position.

Full size mattress

A full-size mattress sometimes called a "double," is wider than a twin but smaller than a queen-size mattress. A full is great for a child to grow into or for a single sleeper who wants more space than a twin offers.

Queen size mattress

A queen-size mattress is the most popular mattress size, giving you an extra 6 inches of width over a full-size mattress. A queen is a great choice for single sleepers (and your furry friend!) and couples who may not have enough space for a king-size mattress.

King size mattress

A king-size mattress is great for couples, with 16 inches more width than a queen-size mattress. A king gives you and your partner plenty of your own space or you can meet in the middle to cuddle.

California king size mattress

A California king-size mattress isn't quite as wide as a king mattress, but is an extra 4 inches longer, making it ideal for taller sleepers. A California king will provide you and your partner with plenty of space and a little extra length.
