GUIDE TO BED SIZES
We've put together a guide on all the different bed sizes to help you choose the right one when you go shopping for a new bed.
Bed buying can be quite confusing due to the names given to the diferent bed sizes. Whilst we have standardised bed sizes/names in the UK, European and American sizes and terminology differ, which often causes confusion.
If in doubt meaure your bed before you go shopping and check the dimensions of the bed you are buying with the shop assistant.
These are the most common UK bed sizes:
