Standard single bed mattress dimensions range from 72 to 78 inches in length and 30 to 42 inches in width. An average single-size mattress is designed for one person and is ideal for children, teenagers, or young adults with a small stature or anyone with limited space.

  • Small bedrooms (minimum 8 x 8 feet)
  • Studio apartments
  • Hostels or dormitories

Who Should Avoid a Single Bed Mattress

Tall individuals over 6 feet or those who prefer more sleeping space may find the single size mattress restrictive. It’s also not suitable for couples or for co-sleeping with kids/pets.

Our Recommendations

We recommend a single mattress size of 72 x 36 inches (6.0 x 3.0 ft or 182.88 x 91.44 cm) for individuals who are up to 5.5 feet tall. For those who are up to 6 feet tall, the 78 x 42 inches (6.5 x 3.5 ft or 198.12 x 106.68 cm) mattress size is more appropriate. Ensure your room is at least 8 x 8 feet.

Double Bed Mattress

A double size mattress, also known as a full or standard mattress, offers more width than a single. A double bed size ranges from 72 to 78 inches in length and 48 to 54 inches in width. A double mattress size is a good option for single adults who want more sleeping space or for couples who don’t mind cosying up.

Double Mattress Dimensions

The most popular double bed mattress size in India is 72 x 48 inches (6.0 x 4.0 ft or 182.88 x 121.92 cm). The table below presents the standard double bed mattress dimensions:

  • Couples (for short durations)
  • Medium-sized bedrooms (minimum 9 x 9 feet)

Who Should Avoid a Double Bed Mattress

Families with 1 or more children or couples who prefer a more spacious sleeping area may find a double bed mattress too cramped. They should consider a queen or king size mattress.

Our Recommendations

We recommend a double mattress size of 75 x 48 inches (6.25 x 4.0 ft or 190.5 x 121.92 cm) for single adults who like to spread out. For couples who prefer to sleep close to each other, the 78 x 48 inches (6.5 x 4.0 ft or 198.12 x 121.92 cm) size is a better option. These dimensions of a double mattress ensure comfort and fit well in medium-sized rooms of at least 9 x 9 feet.

Queen Size Mattress

A queen size mattress is one of the popular mattress sizes in India. Queen size bed provides ample space for two adults, making it an excellent choice for couples. Queen mattress dimensions in feet range from 72 to 78 inches in length and 60 to 66 inches in width. A queen size bed fits well in most bedrooms (min. 10 x 10 feet) and offers a spacious sleeping area without taking up too much room space.

Who Should Avoid a Queen Size Mattress

Couples with a large pet or grown up children (above 10 years old) who co-sleep will find the queen size mattress restrictive. Queen size bed is also not suitable for rooms smaller than 10 feet by 10 feet.

The king size mattress is the largest standard mattress size available in India. It offers a luxurious amount of space for couples or individuals who enjoy a lot of sleeping space. King size mattress dimensions range from 72 to 84 inches in length and 72 to 84 inches in width. A king size bed requires a large room (12 x 12 ft), but in return, it provides a spacious and comfortable sleeping area. King size bed is perfect for couples who prefer a lot of space or families with children who co-sleep.

  • Couples + 1 child (any age)
  • Couples + 2 children (up to 10 years old) (for short durations)
  • Large master bedrooms (minimum 12 x 12 feet)

Who Should Avoid a King Size Mattress

A king-size mattress is not suitable for smaller bedrooms under 12 by 12 feet or those living on higher floors due to difficulty in manoeuvring. Budget-conscious buyers should also avoid a king size mattress as king size bed mattress price is higher than other mattress sizes.

Our Recommendation

For couples who prefer a lot of space, a king mattress dimensions in feet of 6.0 x 6.0 feet (72 x 72 inches or 182.88 x 182.88 cm) is recommended. For families with young children who co-sleep, the 7.0 x 7.0 ft (84 x 84 inches or 213.36 x 213.36 cm) king size bed dimensions would be more appropriate. These sizes ensure comfort while fitting well in large master bedrooms of at least 12 x 12 feet.

Need a Custom Size Mattress?

While this guide covers the standard mattress sizes in India, sometimes you need something a little different. If you have a unique bed frame or space constraints, don't worry! Here at Flo Mattress, we understand that a perfect night's sleep starts with the perfect fit. Get in touch with our team and we'll help you create a custom mattress to meet your exact needs.

How to Measure Mattress Size for Bed?

Just simply reading mattress size charts won’t help you find the perfect mattress size. You also need your measurements to be correct. Follow these steps to determine the ideal mattress size suitable for your bed frame in India:

Step 1: Get the Equipment

Before you begin, you’ll need:

  • Measuring tape (preferably non-retractable for easy handling)

  • Pen and paper (to note down measurements)

Step 2: Measure Your Bed Frame (Not the Mattress!)

We often mistakenly measure the mattress itself. Here's the key: measure the internal dimensions of your bed frame where the mattress will sit. This ensures you get a mattress that fits well within the frame and avoids any overhang.

  • Measure the Length:Place one end of the tape at the top inner edge of the bed frame, and extend it straight down to the opposite bottom inner edge. Note down this measurement in inches/feet/centimetres.

  • Measure the Width:Similarly, place the tape measure at one inner side edge of the bed frame and extend it horizontally to the opposite inner side edge. Record this measurement in inches/feet/centimetres.

Pro Tip:If your bed frame has an angled headboard or footboard that slopes inwards, measure the narrowest internal width to ensure your mattress fits easily.

Step 3: Match Your Measurements to Standard Mattress Sizes in India

Once you have your length and width measurements, refer to this standard Indian mattress size chart to identify the perfect fit:

Pro Tip 1: Double-Check for Variations: While these are the standard sizes, there might be slight variations between mattress brands. Check the specific size details of the mattress you're considering before finalising your purchase.

Pro Tip 2: When in Doubt, Round Up!: If your measurements fall close to the next size up, consider opting for the larger size. Those extra inches can make a big difference in comfort, especially if you're a taller individual or a restless sleeper. Just ensure that your bed is spacious enough to fit the mattress in.

How to choose the right mattress

How to choose the right mattress size

Step 4: Additional Factors

Beyond the measurements, keep these factors in mind for optimal comfort:

  1. Bedroom size
  2. Height of sleepers
  3. Number of sleepers
  4. Sleeping position
  5. Budget
  6. Future room upgrades

We've covered these additional factors along with our suggestions in detail in the next section of this article.

Factors to Consider for Choosing the Right Mattress Size and Dimension

Choosing the right mattress size goes beyond just aesthetics. Here's a breakdown of key factors to consider when navigating the world of mattress sizes in India, ensuring you make the right choice:

1. Bedroom Size

The size of your bedroom dictates the maximum mattress size you can accommodate. We recommend leaving at least 2-3 feet of space on each side of your bed for comfortable movement.

Here’s a breakdown of which mattress size and dimension is right for you based on your room size:

  • Compact Room (Less than 10 ft x 10 ft): If you're tight on space, a Single (78" x 42") or Double (72" x 48") mattress is ideal for comfortable sleeping while maximising floor space.
  • Standard Room (10 ft x 10 ft to 12 ft x 12 ft): A Double mattress (78” x 48”) offers ample space for solo sleepers in a standard room. If you share the bed, consider a Queen (72" x 60") size mattress.
  • Master Bedroom (12 ft x 12 ft and above): Here, you have the luxury of exploring larger options like a Queen (78” x 66”) or King (84" x 84") size mattress; perfect for couples and families.

2. Height

Taller individuals need a mattress with sufficient length that provides ample space to stretch out. Here are our mattress size recommendations based on the sleeper height:

  • Children and youngsters (under 5 feet): A Twin/Single mattress (75" x 36”) is a suitable choice.
  • Average height individuals (between 5 and 6 feet): A Full/Double mattress (75" x 48”) provides ample room.
  • Taller individuals (over 6 feet): For maximum comfort, opt for a Queen (78" x 66") or King (84" x 84") size mattress.

3. Weight

Consider the combined weight of sleepers when selecting the right mattress thickness, size, and dimensions. Heavier individuals benefit from a thicker mattress, providing better support and comfort. Below are our recommendations for mattress size and thickness based on the sleeper(s) weight:

  • If one or both sleepers weigh less than 90 kg: A 6-inch (15 cm) thickness should be sufficient for most mattress sizes like Single (78" x 42"), Double (75" x 48"), or Queen (75" x 60").

  • If one or both sleepers weigh over 90 kg A 8-inch (20 cm) or 10-inch (25 cm) mattress thickness is recommended. Consider larger mattress sizes like Queen (78" x 66") or King (84" x 84").

  • If one or both sleepers weigh above 100-120 kg: A 10-12 inches (25-30 cm) mattress thickness is advisable. A King-size mattress (84" x 84") is the most suitable.

Remember, the height of your bed and mattress combined shouldn’t exceed 22 inches from the floor for ease of getting in and out of bed. Generally, the thicker the mattress, the better it can support heavier weights.

4. Number of Sleepers

If you share your bed with a partner, consider a size that accommodates both of you comfortably. Here's how the sizes fare

  • Solo Sleeper: If you sleep alone, a Single-size mattress (6.25 ft x 3.0 ft) should suffice. However, if you like to sprawl out, a Double-size mattress (6.0 ft x 4.0 ft) is better.
  • Couples: A Queen-size bed mattress (6.25 ft x 5.0 ft) is the golden standard for couples in India. It gives two adults sufficient space for a comfortable sleep.
  • Families with children: Opt for a King-size mattress (7.0 ft x 7.0 ft) if you frequently share your bed with children for unrestricted movement.

5. Sleeping Position

Your preferred sleep position significantly influences the size of your mattress:

  • Back or Side Sleepers: For a proper spine alignment, you need a thick and bigger size mattress. A Queen (6.25 x 5.0 ft or 75 x 60 inches) or King (6.5 x 6.0 ft or 78 x 72 inches) size mattress would be ideal for back and side sleepers.

  • Stomach Sleepers: We don't recommend sleeping on your stomach. If it's the only position you're comfortable in, a Double (6.25 x 4.0 ft or 75 x 48 inches) bed mattress would be sufficient, as stomach sleepers typically require less space.

6. Budget

Mattress prices increase with size. Consider setting a realistic budget before you start shopping. Here’s an average price range of mattress sizes in India:

  • Single bed mattress: ₹4,839 (72” x 30”) to ₹6,178 (78” x 42”)

  • Double bed mattress: ₹6,569 (72” x 48”) to ₹6,873 (78” x 48”)

  • Queen size mattress: ₹7,845 (72” x 60”) to ₹8,958 (78” x 66”)

  • King size mattress: ₹9,165 (72” x 72”) to ₹11,724 (84” x 84”)

Note: These prices may differ depending on any offers that may be running on the website.

7. Additional Furniture

Think about the other furniture you plan to have in your bedroom. If you need space for a dresser, nightstand, or study table, a smaller mattress size like a Double might be a better fit for a balanced layout.

By considering these factors, you can make an informed decision on the best mattress size for your needs. Prioritise comfort and quality to ensure that your mattress is a worthwhile investment for at least 7-10 years to come.

Conclusion
