When deciding which size of bed to choose from

The average person spends two thirds of their life asleep, and the likelihood is that this will have been spent in a bed. Sleep is important to overall health and wellbeing, so it makes sense to choose a bed which is suitable for your sleeping needs.
When deciding which size of bed to choose from, you will need to make sure that it will fit into the room –and that the person or persons sleeping in it will fit into the bed! The standard measurements for Single beds or twin beds are 39 inches by 75 inches. Double beds are 54 inches by 75 inches, and King Size beds are 76-78 inches by 84 inches, so if the sleeper is of a large build or particularly tall, there won’t be any problems with feet hanging off the edge of the bed or nasty surprises tumbling out of bed in the night because there isn’t enough room. It is recommended that you also take into account any particular heath requirements you or a fellow sleeper might have, such as allergies or back problems.
Orthopedic beds come in a variety of sizes ranging from single beds to king size beds and use systems such as memory foam or springing systems to help support the sleeper. Split mattresses are also available for those sleeping in double beds or king size beds, which allow one half of the bed to be customized specifically to one sleeper’s requirements, while the other sleeper can rest undisturbed. Electric adjustable king size beds, double bedsor single bedsare also useful for those living with mobility issues such as elder persons who might find it difficult sitting up in bed.
The dimensions of a room also need to be taken into account, too. While king size beds might look like an appealing prospect, consider the logistics first. Do you really want to be tiptoeing around the edge of the bed in the morning to get ready? Perhaps it is limited space which is the problem. If this is the case -for example if you live in a bedsit- then consider sofas which fold out into king size beds.
There may be other considerations too, such as storage space. Double beds are available which come with drawers underneath, or for children single beds known as “cabin beds” have cupboards underneath which double up as great places to play hide and seek! Double beds are also available which can fold into the wall. These are a great solution if you are looking for ways to economize on space, particularly if you are in a room which needs to double up as a study or a living area during the day.
