Approx. Dimensions: 38” x 74.5” / 2,831 sq in / 19.7 sq ft

Twin sizes are approximately 38” wide by 74.5” long, give or take a bit, which equates to approximately 2,831 square inches and 19.7 square feet.

Want to learn more about the different sizes we offer, check out our mattress size guide.

A twin is approximately 5 inches shorter than a twin XL, they are the same width.

Standard twins are optimal for children and teens, especially those with limited bedroom space. As far as adults go, yes they can sleep on a twin, however it may feel too small for them to comfortably sleep on, therefore if space is an issue, we would recommend going with a Twin XL for an adult.

While 2 adults could possibly fit on one, they wouldn’t be comfortable sleeping on it due to its limited width.

If your child's room is on the smaller side and they have outgrown their crib/toddler bed, we recommend the next step be a twin.
