The twin mattress is a very versatile piece of bedding. It can be used in smaller rooms to make them appear larger, it serves as a great size for kids and guests and when used properly the twin bed mattress can add value to the sale of your home. When you use a cheap twin mattress in a staging effort during the sale of the home you can make a room look – well – roomier. If you are trying to do that make sure you go to a twin mattress sale, you obviously don’t want to spend a lot if its just for staging the home. On the other side if you are looking for an adjustable twin bed you need to be prepared to spend more.
Twin Mattress Sizes
A standard twin mattress is going to be 39 inches wide and 75 inches long. So a little more than a yard by a little more than 6 feet, allowing you to fit most people on the bed. I have a son who is 6’5″ and he quickly graduated to the spare queen bed we have but we could have just as easily bought an extra long twin mattress that ads 5 more inches to the bed. In order for any bed to look like it fits into a room it needs to have enough space to comfortable walk, turn and sit down on the bed with the knees extended. Beyond the edge of the knee there should be 6 to 12 inches before the next object in any direction.
Twin Mattress Prices
These beds can really range in price depending on the inner support system and the outer layer for comfort. Interior core elements can be on the cheap twin mattress side, generally coil, to the more expensive memory or compressed memory foam. In between you will have everything from high density coils to wrapped coils to all springs to all foam. What you need to decide is the comfort level you want, and how long you want the bed to last. A simmons twin mattress for example will run around $300 to $500 depending on the quality, while other cheap twin mattress will go for around $100.
Twin Mattress Sale
Most large furniture supply places will have sales on furniture with just about every holiday imaginable. Its not hard to find one on sale in your area, although its best to plan the purchase and wait for the sale to come to you as opposed to searching for a twin mattress sale. Sale prices will be between 10% and 25% off depending on the place, just make sure you NEVER, EVER purchase a refurbished mattress of any kind.
