Campaign to Prevent Crib Death - to Prevent SIDS Start date of publicity promoting mattress-wrapping: 1995 Number of babies slept on wrapped mattresses (to December 2014) At least 245,000 (1) Reported crib deaths among those babies: None Crib deaths on unwrapped mattresses (or parallel bedding situations) during the same period: 1030 (2) Reduction in New Zealand crib death rate since mattress-wrapping commenced: 94% (3) Approximate reduction in Pakeha (majority NZ European ethnicity) crib death rate: 92% (3) These major reductions in New Zealand crib death rates cannot be attributed to the crib death prevention advice issued by the New Zealand Ministry of Health. There has been no material change to that advice since 1992; and prior to the introduction of mattress-wrapping the New Zealand crib death rate had been static since 1993. Publication of results of the New Zealand mattress-wrapping campaign: Two journals of environmental medicine (4,5) Statistical proof that mattress-wrapping prevents crib death: p < 1.9 x 10-22 (more than one billion times the level of proof which is usually regarded as establishing a medical proposition) (5)

Standard bed sizes are based on standard mattress sizes, which vary from country to country.
Bed sizes also vary according to the size and degree of ornamentation of the bed frame. Dimensions and names vary considerably around the world, with most countries having their own standards and terminology. In addition, two mattresses with the same nominal size may still have slightly different dimensions, due to manufacturing tolerances, amount of padding, and support type. See also: Mattress § Sizes, and Bedding § Bedding sizes Modern manufacturing conventions have produced many standard mattress and box spring sizes. Beds vary by country of origin as per the table below. These dimensions are for the mattress – actual bed frames are a little larger to accommodate the mattress. Mattress thickness varies considerably. The standard bed sizes are: In addition to the sizes described above, other sizes have found some acceptance in North America, including: Common UK and Ireland sizes Most modern beds/mattresses sold in the UK and Ireland are constructed using metric dimensions.
It is worth noting that "bed size" in the UK generally refers to mattress size. This is because mattresses have a standard size grading, whereas bed frames do not. While many companies in the UK do offer bespoke bed making services, most mass-produced bed linens, bed frames and mattresses fit only the standard bed sizes above. A common mistake is to use a mattress size as the required space for the full dimensions of the bed and mattress. Single size beds are usually 90 cm wide by 190 cm long. Most common sizes for double beds are: 140 cm wide by 190 cm long 160 cm wide by 200 cm long 180 cm wide by 200 cm long (less common, but increasing popularity). Due to the popularity of imported beds (especially from IKEA), the 200 cm length is becoming more common. In Italy, beds are classified by name. These sizes are for Germany, Poland, Netherlands,Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. There are some variations between the Nordic countries and the Baltic nations, but these are the most common sizes:
Most beds are 200 cm (79 in) cm long. Extra long beds are usually 220 cm (87 in), but they are rare. In Portugal the most common sizes for beds are: Solteiro (single) 80 cm (31.5 inches) wide by 190 cm long (can go up to 105 cm wide by 200 cm long) Casal (double) 140 cm (55 in) wide by 190, 195 or 200 cm long Queen Size 160 cm (63 inches) or 180 cm (71 inches) wide by 190, 195 or 200 cm long King Size 180 cm (71 inches) wide by 190, 195 or 200 cm long Super King Size 200 cm (78.74 inches) wide by 200 cm long In Spain the most common sizes are: 80/90/105/120/135/150 cm wide, the most common: "Individual" (single) = 90 cm wide "Matrimonio" (married couple) = 135/150 cm wide The following bed sizes are available in Australia The following bed sizes are available in New Zealand The following bed sizes are available in South Africa: Beds are also available in extra length, which is 200 cm.

I just purchased a new bed from the bed people store at Manukau. The service from Kayla was absolutely amazing. Kayla gave us so much info and asked loads of questions to help me with the perfect bed. I had visited so many bedding shops and never in any of them did I get the customer service this lovely lady gave to us.
