May 28, 2010, Newsletter Issue #194: How mattress sizes add up

Tip of the Week

If you are buying a mattress in a specific size, don't assume that if you know it's a “twin” that you know the mattress size. Mattress sizes can differ even for a particular class of mattress. This is especially true for mattresses from other parts of the world. A “twin” size mattress from Europe will be about three inches narrower than a US twin, and an Asian twin will be about three inches wider and longer.
