If you are looking for mattresses then you only have one choice. That is right… king size mattresses (or possible the super king size mattress).
King size mattresses offer great luxury that provides you the perfect night’s sleep. There is so much room in the bed that it means you can move about to your heart’s content.
The dimensions of king size mattresses are as follows… 60 inches by 78 inches (152 cm by 198 cm). They are second only to the super king size mattress in the UK. The dimensions for ‘the super’ are 72 inches by 78 inches (182 cm by 198 cm) which is an extra foot wider.
Buying a mattress is an important decision. High quality mattresses aren’t cheap but they should last you for 10 years. In fact you shouldn’t really have a mattress for longer than 10 years so if you have had yours for longer than that then you really need to think about changing.
A lot of people would love king size mattresses but you have to be practical. Do you have a bed frame that can handle one? If no then you need to be thinking about buying a new frame.
Before you do that it is important not only that you make sure that your room is big enough, you actually set up a ‘mock’ mattress. It doesn’t have to be lifelike just put some masking tape on the floor for the dimensions of a king size mattress.
Doing this will give you an idea about whether it will fit in the room and allow you enough room to carry out your normal activities. If it looks good and is not overbearing then that is great.
This isn’t the only consideration though. Upgrading in size means mean buying extra sheets. Yes king size mattresses means king size sheets and duvets.
Yes I know it can work out expensive but…
Just imagine the quality of the night’s sleep that you will have especially if you go for a high quality one. That is exactly what we want and we will be posting about how you can achieve that next time.
