At Bedshed, we believe you should choose the largest bed that your bedroom can comfortably accommodate. The general rule is you should allow at least a 1 metre passage around 3 sides of the bed. We also recommend that the length of the mattress should be 15 cm longer than the tallest person using it to ensure a comfortable night’s sleep.
The table below shows Australian mattress sizes; however measurements can vary slightly between manufacturers.
