Which Mattress Size is Best?

Twin

With 5 inches of additional length, the twin XL (extra long) mattress is a great option for college students due to its extra leg space – this size mattress is regularly found in university dorm rooms. Twin XL mattress dimensions are typically 38 inches wide by 80 inches long (38” W x 80” L).

Top Questions

Have mattress dimensions changed?

The short answer is yes. You may find references to Twin mattress sizes as 39” W x 74” L. And Twin XL mattress sizes as 39” W x 80” L. Many manufacturers round-up dimensions of their mattresses to make them appear larger. In some cases by over 1 inch. The dimensions displayed on this page are more accurate measurements of your new mattress.

Are bed frame sizes standardized?

Unfortunately, the answer to this question is no. Bed frame manufacturers leave one to two inches around the mattress to fit into their frames. The amount of clearance will vary by manufacture. Take time to measure your sleeping space. This will ensure your bed frame will fit and leave room for movement around the bed.
