If you are shopping for a bed on the smaller end of the spectrum, you might be wondering about the single bed vs full size bed differences. Both beds are commonly used for children and adolescents, but occasionally single adults choose them as well. Determine whether a full or twin bed is right for you by considering size and style.
Size: Twin beds, also known as single beds, measure in at 39” x 75”. The twin bed is designed for just one person, and fitting two would be quite a stretch. Tall adults and teens may struggle to sleep in these beds as well.
Full beds, sometimes called double beds, measure at 54” x 75”, making it much wider than a single bed but the same length. The short length and closer quarters make this a less popular choice for adults as it becomes a popular choice for children and guests.
Style: The size of a twin bed is ideal for a child’s room or a guest bedroom. Single beds are often used as daybeds, with a trundle underneath, or as bunk beds. While the twin bed was originally named because married couples could buy matching pair to push together, larger sizes are available to accommodate them. Unfortunately, adult bedding is much more difficult to find for twin beds.
A full size bed is now considered too small for most couples, but it can look chic and mature in a child or teenager’s room. Additionally, full beds tend to use the same comforters and sheet sets as queen beds. This makes it easy and affordable to find bedding that you like. It also provides better coverage.
Your bed is the showpiece of your bedroom, and it should always appear comfortable. Choosing the right size for your bedroom or child’s bedroom is essential.
