Full Mattresses

Full size beds are only 15" wider than Twin beds. This won't leave much elbow room for 2 adults (each will have only 27" of width vs. 39" in a Twin bed). Also, a Full bed is only 75" long which may be too short for some adults. But, this size is a good option for a guest room or as a child's step-up mattress. Approx. width per person: 27"

Pros: Fits into smaller rooms. Sheets are less expensive than queen or king size. Also have the option of using Queen size sheets, which will have more drop length.

Cons: Many people find a Full is too narrow for 2 adults with only 27" in width for each person. And, it may be too short for some.
