Most people understand that full, Twin, King and Queen beds are all available, but may find it difficult to choose. Couples shouldn’t sleep on twin or full-size mattresses because they’re not big enough to allow you enough room to move comfortably. However, both a queen and king mattress in New Orleans could be right for you, so which one do you need?
Bedroom Size
The first thing to consider is whether or not your room can fit a King-sized bed. Standard King beds measure 76 by 80 inches, but California Kings can be 72 by 84 inches (so slightly longer and a little less width). Measure your room and determine where you want the bed to go before making a final decision.
Just remember that you’ll probably have a baseboard, platform or headboard, which will take up more space. You may also want particular furniture nearby, such as nightstands or vanities, so make sure you can space everything comfortably.
Your Personal Space
Larger people may feel more comfortable on a King-sized mattress in New Orleans because they are wider than queens. Queen-sized options provide about 30 inches per person, which is less than you’d get on a twin-sized bed. Therefore, couples may prefer a King, especially if they’re bigger or taller.
Budget
Those on a tight budget may not be able to fork out the amount needed for a King, but may be able to afford a comfortable queen. If you’re on a tight budget, you may need to let the numbers do the talking and deciding for you.
However, if you’ve got a bigger budget, most people recommend always getting the biggest bed you can afford because they’re more comfortable. However, some recommend a higher-quality queen than a lower-quality king. Whatever your budget is, Mattress Direct has a mattress for you.
