Comforters and Comforter Sets

Down comforters are terrific bed toppers; they are luxurious, provide warmth and coziness, and are nice-looking to boot. There are comforters suited for almost all types of beds, and they are conventionally bigger and wider than fitted sheets and the mattresses they cover.  Twin beds for instance, have mattresses that measure 39 by 75 inches or 99 by 190 centimeters.  Twin fitted sheets have the same dimensions, but comforters for twin beds measure 68 by 86 inches or 173 by 218 centimeters.

Comforters for Full-sized beds normally have identical dimensions as the ones for Queen-sized mattresses.  Both measure 86 by 86 inches or 218 by 218 centimeters.  In contrast, Full fitted sheets are only 54 by 75 inches or 137 by 190 centimeters in width and length, while Queen fitted sheets are 60 inches wide by 80 inches long.  Sheet and comforter sets are also available in Extra Long Twin, King, and California King to match the same mattress sizes.
