Thanks for taking the time to share your comments and feedback about your Tuft & Needle mattress … I appreciate it

Being pretty skeptical by nature, I focused on “every company makes” and went and measured my current mattress and, as Chuck said, it was 75x79… So while a part of me felt cheated, and another part was indignant that “they” don’t just change the published standard, I accepted that “fact.” Of course I missed the post referred to by Phoenix below about sizes before I bought.

They are correct in the sense that mattresses like all soft goods will have some variances in their sizing from manufacturer to manufacturer or depending on the specifics of the construction and the specifics of the components and the cover they are using. No matter what measurements the industry may use as a “standard sizing” there would generally be a variance of +/- an inch or so which is the standard variance in the industry. For most people a very small variance of an inch wouldn’t be an issue (it would be half an inch on either side). I know you’ve read this but there is more about “standard sizing” in post #2 here for the sake of others that read your post.

Having said all that … it’s great to hear that you are happy with your choice!
