How to Buy Sheets to Fit a Pillow-Top Mattress Published April 29, 2010 | Updated June 11, 2015 Everyone knows that pillow-top mattresses are designed for additional softness and comfort. Due to the padding, pillow-top mattresses have more depth than regular mattresses. The height of the padding varies, but generally, manufacturers make pillow-top mattresses in depths varying from 7 to 22 inches. Specially made deep-pocket sheets for pillow-top mattresses are available; however, it is important to know the depth of your mattress before purchasing sheets. Here's how to buy the best sheets to fit your pillow-top mattress. Shop Deep-Pocket Sheets ▸ Take MeasurementsPlace a piece of cardboard between the mattress and the box spring. Place a second piece of cardboard on top of the mattress. Measure the distance between the pieces of cardboard. This is the depth of your pillow-top mattress. Search for the SheetsSearch for sheets in the size of your pillow-top mattress.
Sheet sizes are available in twin, twin-XL, full, queen, California king, and king. It's important to get the sheets that are meant for your exact mattress; twin-XL mattresses are longer than twin mattresses, and California king mattresses are longer than king mattresses. Choose a Type of Fabric and Thread CountThe higher the thread count, the smoother the sheets will be, but that can come with a higher price tag. Bed sheets are available in a variety of fabrics, from cotton to satin. A current trend is microfiber sheets, which have the feel of high-thread-count sheets but at a lower price point. Shop for Deep-Pocket SheetsDeep-pocket sheets are meant for pillow-top mattresses and are available in three depths: 7 inches to 14 inches (standard), 15 inches (deep), and 16 inches to 22 inches (extra deep). Find Fitted SheetsFitted sheets have elastic on the sides that hold the sheets in place. They're available with elastic on all four sides, elastic on the four corners, or elastic on two sides.
Sheets with elastic on all four sides fit pillow-top mattresses better. Consider Other OptionsIf you are unable to find fitted sheets with the appropriate depth, consider using straps with sheets for regular mattresses. Straps on each of the four corners will keep the sheets in place. You can also use flat sheets that are one size larger than your pillow-top mattress and tuck the sides under the mattress.

While packaged and rolled up, it weighs about 10-15 lbs.
Once it is unpackaged and inflates to size, its well over 50lbs, how much exactly, I'm not sure. I hope this helps. I don't know the exact weight, but I am a 64 year old woman, still in good health, and I lifted it totally off the patio where it was sitting on a table to fluff out with just my two arms no trouble. Just pick it up by the piping on the edge and flop it down on the bed. I don't know, but it was pretty light and rolled up in a small around, tall box. When we put it on the frame it re inflated to actual size. It was very fun for the kids to watch. Also, very comfortable to sleep on!! "Does this mattress need a box spring?" It depends on your bed style. I have no box spring but my bed I purchased has slats, so I didn't need an extra box spring.. it's just a regular mattress, "what kind of frame do you need for it" I purchased this mattress to go into my RV and it sits on the wood platform that has no sides. It was light and flexible enough to lift the wood platform that has storage underneath.
My sister purchase the same and she put it on a box spring with just a metal frame under box spring. I have it on a box spring and a regular metal frame. "Any idea when this will be in stock? I need one ASAP. Maybe I should cancel order." This item is currently in stock. "Will the Nuform quilted pillow top 11 inch full size mattress fit a daybed?" This will fit any full size bed.
