Full Extra Long Sheets – How to Find Special Sheets
Oversized and odd sized mattresses are increasingly popular these days. Consumers are demanding more choices to fit their comfort and the comfort of their overnight guests. Space limitations are also a concern for many consumers who want to maximize sleeping space, but are limited on the floor space a bed can occupy. One example of these odd or oversized mattress options are extra long full size beds. These beds offer the width of a standard full size mattress, but with added length to accommodate taller individuals. The difficulty arises when trying to find full extra long sheets to fit these beds.
Many retailers only offer standard size sheets and bedding. To find full extra long sheets or sheets to fit other oversized beds, consumers must often find specialty stores or bedding boutiques that carry their size. This can be both time consuming and costly. Online bedding stores such as Bed Linens Etc. offer an alternative for buying sheets for hard to fit oversized mattresses. If a particular mattress size is not in stock, customers have the option to order custom-made sheet sets, often at a savings over boutique and specialty stores.
Before buying or ordering full extra long sheets from a retailer or online store, it is advisable to measure your mattress to ensure a good fit. Measure the length, width, and height of your mattress so you know the true dimensions of your bed. This will make finding the right sheets for your particular mattress easier. Just because a package says “full extra long” does not mean the dimensions will be exactly the same as your mattress. Differences in mattress height (thickness) affect how sheets will fit and whether they stay in place on the bed. If you buy a set of sheets that say they fit your bed size, but your mattress is thicker, the fit will not be correct.
When shopping for full extra long sheets, or any other specialty bedding product, check the dimensions listed. In store, where you can actually view the packaging, the dimensions are generally listed on the package itself. Online, sellers usually list the dimensions in the details section of the product description. Check these dimensions with the measurements you made of your bed to make as close a match as you possibly can. If you cannot find a local retailer that carries your dimensions, try searching for specific terms such as “extra long sheets” or “oversized bedding” online. This will help you find a supplier who carries the bedding you need.
