    Depth of Mattress

    Importance of Mattress Depth

    Ensuring the right mattress thickness is key to a perfect night's sleep

    It's not just about aesthetics; it's the assurance that your sheets will fit snugly, accommodating any added layers like plush pillow tops or cozy mattress toppers for an extra touch of comfort and style.

    Standard Mattress Depth

    The standard depth of mattresses, or mattress height, usually falls between 9 to 12 inches, offering a practical guideline for choosing sheets that guarantee a custom and cozy fit for your bed.

    Deep Pocket Mattresses

    Deep pocket depth mattresses, boasting depths surpassing 14 inches, require sheets specially designed with a deep pocket size to fit securely without wrinkles, adding a touch of luxury to your bedding. This extra depth allows for accommodating mattress toppers and overlays, elevating both comfort and style in creating your perfect sleep sanctuary.

    Extra Deep Pocket Mattresses

    Those indulging in extra deep pocket mattresses will need deep pocket sheets. When purchasing deep pocket sheets surpassing a generous 16 inches in depth, it's crucial to invest in sheets specifically designed to wrap around their substantial size, guaranteeing a snug and smooth fit that elevates both the visual appeal and comfort of your sleep haven. These deeper pocket depth sheets are not as commonly manufactured due to the special equipment needed.

    This added depth also allows for the flexibility of incorporating plush mattress toppers or luxurious overlays, delivering a truly opulent and personalized bedding experience.

    How to Measure Mattress Depth

    1. Start by stripping your bed. Strip off all blankets, duvet covers, bed skirts, decorative pillows, sheet sets and mattress protectors to expose the bare mattress.
    2. Grab a reliable tape measure and determine the depth by measuring from the top edge to the bottom being careful not to measure the bed frames.
    3. Take multiple measurements at various points, especially the corners, to guarantee precision. Be careful to measure only the mattress and not the Box Spring. 
    4. The result will be your size mattress

    Tips for a Perfect Fit

    For a bedding setup that fits just right, follow these tips:

    Begin by measuring your mattress and pillows to nail down the perfect sheet and pillowcase sizes. Pay attention to the sheet label for specific dimensions and care guidelines. Delve into customer feedback for real-world insights into comfort and durability. Reach out to the bedding manufacturer for personalized advice and additional guidance.

    It is also essential to take into consideration that flat sheet dimensions vary for different manufacturers and brands. Shoppers need to make sure that they purchase bedding that is big enough to tuck in around their mattress. They should also consider that sheets, just like clothes, will shrink a bit depending on the fiber used to make different types of bed sheets. For this reason, it is key to do your research into the type of bed sheet fabric used and what steps have been taken by the manufacturer to maintain low to normal shrinkage. At American Blossom, we have taken steps to make ours a few inches wider so that they will tuck in appropriately. Our fitted sheet is a 16 inched pocket. 

    Finally, keep a stash of extra sheets on hand for your guest bedroom and to adapt effortlessly to any changes in your bedding style.
