Please contact us if you require assistance prior to buying bedding for college.Typically, the width of the mattress remains the same for both sizes, 39". However, we have come across a few campus with 36" wide mattresses.
Students can feel confident that their bedding for college will fit properly because DormSmart ALWAYS checks actual bedding dimensions before categorizing it as twin or twin XL, meaning labels or packaging do not matter rather size matters! Regardless of how a manufacturer has labeled their bedding, before it hits DormSmart's virtual shelves the dimensions must be checked and the bedding categorized accordingly.DormSmart reviews more that 2000 college housing websites annually and the one thing we have learned… there is no consistency between colleges when it comes to bed sizes. Some schools have standard twin beds, many schools have twin extra long beds (commonly referred to as Twin XL or TXL), and a few even have double beds in their dorm rooms. The best approach for students and parents is to contact their school housing office prior to purchasing bedding for their dorm room.While twin XL is preferable (minimum length of 90"), twin comforters and duvets (86" and up) can work on an 80 inch extra long twin mattress but they will be short.
Please note that your mattress topper, fitted sheet, mattress pad, and bed skirt must be manufactured to properly fit a twin extra long mattress. Here's how to make a twin XL bed with a standard twin comforter... pull the comforter toward the bottom of the bed to accommodate the 5 inch difference then turn down the top so the comforter does not appear short when the bed is made. You can then fill in the top with extra pillows.Your "fitted sheet" must be manufactured to fit a twin XL mattress. Beware of retailers who tell you that a deep pocket twin fitted sheet will PROPERLY fit your twin extra long mattress. Also, if you plan to use a jersey twin fitted sheet on your twin XL mattress, be advised that it may lose it shape or shrink after repeated washings and slide off your bed.Some of the newer residence halls being constructed on campuses today are more like an apartment versus the standard dorm room so students are able to use larger beds. In addition, full size and queen size comforters, 90 inches or longer, can be used to accommodate the additional height of a raised twin XL bed in your dorm room.
Lastly, if you are planning to move into your own apartment versus remaining in the residence hall beyond your freshman year, it may be a wiser investment to purchase a larger comforter or duvet set that can be used in both spaces. Your bed linens such as a your fitted sheet, mattress topper, and mattress pad must be manufactured to fit your mattress size (i.e. twin or twin XL) but you can definitely get away with a larger comforter or duvet and save money!Full comforters and duvets are 80” wide by 86 to 89” long, the same length as standard twin bedding. The additional width of a full comforter or duvet can be used to accommodate the height of your RAISED twin bed, providing more fabric on the sides. It definitely increases your selection of twin bedding for college. Repeating patterns and solid colors work best.Most queen comforters and duvets are 86” wide by 90” or longer,the same length as twin XL bedding. The added width of a queen comforter or duvet can be used to accommodate the height of your RAISED twin XL bed, providing more fabric on the sides.
It definitely increases your selection of twin XL bedding for college. Repeating patterns and solid colors work bestExtended Twin Bedding, Twin Extra Long Bedding, TXL Bedding, XLT Bedding, Twin Extended Bedding, Extra Long Twin BeddingWith so many American mills closing these days, it's difficult to offer a wide selection of bedding that is only American made. However, because DormSmart believes in supporting US based businesses, our bedding is either Made in the USA or Imported by a US Based Distributor who creates jobs for Americans. In a nutshell, if you are shopping for American made dorm bedding, you can find it on DormSmart's virtual shelves, even twin XL. The bedding's origin is easily found on each product listing, just like the dimensions. ;)If for some reason you are unable to locate the information you require, please remember, we are human and contact us. While we strive for perfection, sometimes we fall short and need to make a correction.A poly cotton blend is exactly that... a blend of polyester and cotton.
