Choose The Right Sized Bed For Your Bedroom


Finding the Right Bed for Your Size

In 1988, sleep expert Dr Chris Idzikowski discovered that trading in your old bed for a new, more comfortable one could give you an average of 42 minutes extra sleep -four times as effective as a typical over-the-counter sleep remedy. Choosing a bed for a tall person

According to the Sleep Council, most of us are sleeping in a bed that's too small. The Sleep Council recommends that since we don't sleep with our heads right up against the head board, we should choose a bed that's at least 6in (15cm) taller than the tallest person sleeping in it. If you're very tall, an alternative is to consider a custom made bed. Choosing a mattress for a heavy person

If you or your partner is heavy, a standard double bed probably won't be wide enough for you to sleep comfortably without disturbing each other. Like tall people, you'll benefit from a king- or super king-sized bed to give you that extra room. Pressure points can result in numbness, stiffness and pain and lead to a restless and unsatisfying night's sleep. An overweight person needs a firm and supportive mattress made of a higher density material such as memory foam to relieve pressure and ensure restful sleep. Memory foam, or visco-elastic foam, was originally developed by NASA to ease the pressure of extreme G-force on astronauts. A memory foam mattress moulds perfectly to the unique shape of your body, providing excellent support and reducing pressure points. Finding the perfect bed for you

Once you've got your ideal bed, make sure your bedding and bed linen fit perfectly too. Most department stores carry a good range of bed linen sizes; however, you can also find specialist firms who will make custom-sized bed linen for you.

When transforming your tired bedroom into a peaceful new sanctuary, choosing right bed frame size and bed frame type is almost as important as picking the perfect style. Today's bedroom furniture makers offer interesting new bed frame designs in four relatively common sizes. Platform beds and Canopy beds (also commonly referred to as four poster beds) are two bed designs that offer a variety of styles and are attractive to wide range of furniture tastes. Platform bed frames are very low to the ground while four poster or canopy beds can reach almost to your ceiling! If you want more sleeping space and you have room for more than just a queen platform bed but not enough for a king consider an Olympic queen size bed. Olympic queen beds are 6 inches wider than Queen platform beds. If you can accommodate bigger still, California King platform beds are four inches narrower than a standard king size bed but four inches longer.
Queen Bed - 60 x 80
Olympic Queen Bed - 66 x 80
CA King Bed - 72 x 84
King Bed 76 x 80

Whichever style bed frame you choose make sure you know all of your sizing options.
