What Size Bed Should I Get?

Unlike that fashionable winged-back chair you pictured yourself sitting in after work, a bed is a vital piece of furniture you will actually use every day. That said, you have to get it right.

If you’re wondering, “What size bed should I get?” you’ve come to the right place. Big Fig is here to help you choose the best bed size based on your living space, personal needs, and budget — because everyone deserves a good night’s sleep regardless of size!

How to Choose Between Bed Sizes

We know buying a new bed can be exciting, but hold off on picking out those decorative pillows for a sec. Before you unpack and assemble your Big Fig Bed Frame and Foundation, there are a few things to consider. Don’t worry—you’ll be Netflix and chilling on your new bed in no time!

Don’t Underestimate Room Size

Let’s start with the most logical consideration when choosing between bed sizes: How much space do you have? No matter how good our White Glove Delivery is, our pros can’t squeeze a king-size bed into a room that can only accommodate a twin. 

Measure the room where you plan on placing your bed and compare those measurements to our Big Fig Mattress, Foundation, and Adjustable Base dimensions, along with the height of the entire Mattress, Foundation, and Bed Frame on our FAQ page

Consider the Number of Sleepers — For Real

Look, we’re not going to judge if you’re sleeping solo and prefer a queen (or even a king) over a twin or full-sized bed — by all means, sprawl out!  You don’t always have to choose a bed size based on the number of sleepers. 

However, don’t discredit that extra space for fur babies, kiddos escaping monsters from under their beds, or friends who pop in for a movie night. Heck, if you live in a studio, your bed may also serve as a separate seating area. 

Also, even though you have to consider the weight limit, the good news is that, unlike conventional mattresses that only support 250 pounds or under, the Big Fig Mattress is specially engineered and crafted to hold bigger-figured sleepers — check out this bed size chart with weight limit and bed sizes and see for yourself!

Your Favorite Sleeping Position(s)

You really don’t have to overthink this one! Big Fig guarantees superior comfort and edge support. The Big Fig Mattress is soft and comfy while still being bouncy, supportive, and strong to support your pressure points no matter your favorite sleeping position. The high-quality materials are ideal for long-lasting support in any sleep position.

However, if you and your plus-sized partner really like to spread out, you should consider getting a larger bed size

Budget Basics

Not to take the fun out of buying a bed, but budget is on the brain for most folks. Big Fig understands that cost can be a point of contention when making such a large purchase, so we offer Mattress Financing Payment Plans  ( sleep now, pay later!) through three safe and reputable financing options. 

Making a Long-Term Investment

A bed is an investment that will last you for years to come. Even though you may not want to think about “old age” when buying a bed in the present, you’ve got to consider the future, too. Consider adding a Big Fig Adjustable Base so you can easily adjust your Big Fig Mattress to make everyday activities like reading, watching TV, chilling, or sleeping more comfortable. In our opinion, an adjustable base is a feature all ages can get on board with!

Choosing Your Bed 

Hopefully, by now, you no longer need to ask yourself, “What size bed should I get?” It’s truly a matter of space, personal preference, and lifestyle, factors that shouldn’t take too long to sort out. However, if you’re still scratching your head over a final decision, don’t hesitate to contact us via chat, email, or phone! 

Finding the perfect mattress can be more challenging than determining bed size. Luckily, Big Fig has you covered. We’ve created the first and best mattress for heavy people so you can call off the dogs!
