Full XL Bed Sheets – Finding Yours


Mattresses aren't what they used to be.  Today's mattresses are designed to give you maximum comfort.  From memory foam to adjustable firmness sleepers, there's something for everyone.  But your rest doesn't just depend on what kind of mattress you're resting on.  The sheets you stretch over that fancy mattress matter as well.  A poorly fitting sheet can ruin your sleep, and old, rough sheets are a common source of contention as well.  In other words, if you want the best night's sleep you can find then you need to look beyond just the mattress and make sure you put great full XL bed sheets on your full sized bed.

Full size beds are the next step in size down from a queen bed.  Most full XL mattresses are eighty inches in length and fifty four inches in width.  They add an extra six inches to the length of the bed, which is what the XL stands for.  That means you need to be sure that you purchase full XL bed sheets – that XL really does matter.  But with today's mattress designs, the thickness of your mattress will matter also.  If your mattress is sixteen inches thick or more you need to buy deep pocket bed sheets.  If it's thicker than that, you'll want to purchase extra-deep pocket sheets.

No matter the size sheet or the type of pockets, your style will matter when you purchase full XL bed sheets as well.  Sheets are available in a full range of colors so that it's easy to find exactly the type of sheet set you want.  This lets you coordinate your sheets with your blankets as well as the overall room décor.  This may not seem like a major issue to some, but for most it's important to have color options that actually make sense for a room.

Finally you will want to consider the material used in the full XL bed sheets.  There are plenty of options.  The cheapest will be the cotton and polyester sheets, which is a fifty percent mix of both fabrics.  Bamboo sheets are designed for warm climates and hot nights, while flannel sheets are designed to add extra warmth for cold nights.  And one hundred percent cotton sheets are still the most popular option and are available in thread counts ranging from three hundred up to one thousand.  The higher the count, the silkier and smoother the sheet will be.  Simply put, there's a sheet set for your bed.
