June 2, 2006, Newsletter Issue #19: Bed Mattress Sizes

Tip of the Week

Knowing the exact bed mattress sizes helps you choose the right size goose down comforter. A twin mattress is 39x75 inches: Choose a twin down comforter 66 to 68 inches wide and 86 to 88 inches long. For a 54x75-inch full-size mattress, a goose down comforter should be 81 to 84 inches wide and 86 to 88 inches long. A 60x80 inch queen-size mattress needs an 86- to 88-inch wide down comforter that is 96 to 100 inches long. A standard/eastern/king mattress that is 76 to 78 wide and 80 inches long will need a down comforter 102 inches wide and 86 to 88 inches long. The California king, 72x84 inches, will only look good with a goose down comforter 107 to 110 inches wide and 96 to 98 inches long.

You can find a down comforter to fit any size bed at a discount online.
