Sizes of bed linen of various manufacturers

Full sleep is vital for both adults and children. You can provide it with a good bed, orthopedic mattress and comfortable pillows. In addition, it is important to take into account that the size of the bedding and the material from which it is made are equally important.

Kit Options

The sizes and number of items included in the bedding set may vary. So, for different manufacturers, differences in the size of linen vary from 5 to 15 centimeters. If the linen does not match the size of the blankets, pillows and the parameters of the bed, this can bring discomfort during sleep. In order to avoid such situations, when choosing a kit, it is important to measure the mattress, blankets and pillows and only then go shopping. In this case, a number of rules should be taken into account, following which ensures that bedding is selected correctly. These rules include:

• The sheet should be wider and longer than the mattress by at least 60 centimeters;
• A sheet-cover with an elastic band should match the size of the mattress;
• When choosing a duvet cover, you need to consider the fact that it should be 5-10 centimeters longer and wider than the blanket.

Today it is very fashionable to make online purchases. Many online stores are full of new home textiles with favorable terms of purchase and types of delivery. You should be extremely careful when ordering goods and take into account the fact that the Chinese size classification is most often designed for American standards. Especially this fact is important to consider when choosing sheets. So, in the United States of America, beds of the following sizes are considered standard:

• Double (twin);
• Single;
• Double (double);
• Full
• Small royal (queen);
• Royal (king);
• California Royal
• Western king
• Eastern king

In post-Soviet countries, firms that manufacture custom-made furniture will gladly accept an order for a maxi or mini-size bed. When deciding on such an acquisition, it is important to remember that subsequently there will be difficulties in finding the right underwear. In order not to be in such a situation, it is better to order furniture with classic dimensions.

Types of Sets

When choosing bedroom textiles, you need to find out factors such as the gender and age of the person to whom it is intended. So, for a child, a set with one pillowcase is needed, but for a couple such a set will not work, since one pillowcase will not be enough. There are the following options:

• Yaselny. Designed for children from infancy to three years. The kit includes a pillowcase, sheet and duvet cover. Such a set is perfect for a small crib or cradle.
• Children’s. Children's sets for children from 5 to 15 years old, as a rule, have a colorful color, they are decorated with images of the heroes of your favorite cartoons. The set includes: sheet, pillowcase and duvet cover.
• One and a half. Such kits are usually called one and a half bouts, due to the fact that they are designed for single-masts with a half meter width. Often, such sets are called single, as they are designed for one person. The set includes a sheet, a pair of pillowcases and a one and a half rectangular quilt cover.
• Double. People call it "dvushka".This set of linen is designed for a standard double bed and is equipped with a sheet, a duvet cover and two pillowcases.
• Euro bed. Euro-standard linen is different from sets that are sewn according to GOST in Russia. In the Euroset there is a sheet, a duvet cover, two or four pillowcases for a Euro pillow.
• Family. Family sets are ideal for couples who are comfortable sleeping under different blankets. Included is a large sheet, two duvet covers and two pillowcases.

For those who find it difficult to choose the appropriate kit or determine the compliance of the length of the Euro sheets with the parameters of a double or half bed, there are size tables on the Internet. As a rule, the Russian manufacturer indicates the size grid on the package.

Criterias of choice

The wide range presented by the market can be confusing. Make the right choice will help a number of recommendations, following which you can determine the necessary product.

Fabric Options

For comfortable use and durability, it is recommended to purchase linen made from natural fabrics. For example, linen or cotton, flannel or silk. A product made of breathable materials promotes a comfortable and healthy sleep. These materials include calico, satin, poplin, as well as other types of natural fabrics. Today, among the many proposed options for kits, one can also find those that are sewn from polycotton (a mixture of cotton and polyester). Such products are durable, and the color does not depend on how many times the product has been washed.

Important details

The color scheme of the fabric used for sewing sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers most often selected according to interior design. Often, a bed is made out taking into account the age category and habits of its owners. For example, romantic young girls often like lace cambric sheets and a floral print. Bamboo bedding is recognized as antibacterial due to the natural properties of bamboo, so it is in demand among adolescents. The latest developments have allowed the creation of hypoallergenic underwear using silver, which is very pleasing to allergy sufferers.

Those who wish to preserve the brightness of colors on their sheets should choose reactive printing kits. And besides this, strictly adhere to the temperature regime indicated on the product label.

New kits should have an exclusively textile smell. The presence of the smell of chemicals indicates a low quality product. In addition, you should pay attention to how the kit is packaged. High quality bedding will never be packaged in a low-grade wrapper.

The fabric of the new set according to its texture should be soft, without excessive starches. Moisture released in a dream from the skin involves the use of hygroscopic materials. The most practical and budget material is calico. It is most often used for sewing kits for children.

Poplinovy ​​linen is much more expensive and soft. This texture is achieved due to the special weaving of threads of various thicknesses. Such fabric is not pretentious in leaving.

Satin belongs to the elite class material. The satin weave of the threads gives the set a distinctive sheen, which is achieved using special processing of the threads.

An important detail is the quality of bedding.

A distinctive feature of high-quality linen is a special linen seam. You can check the quality of such a seam by turning the product inside out. For low-quality goods, the edges can be sewn with one simple seam and not processed.

Whatever choice is made, the main thing is that it meets the requirements of the customer.
