Why Bed Size Matters for Couples

Sharing a bed can be comfortable and intimate, but if the bed is not big enough, it can also feel cramped and uncomfortable. Numerous couples have no idea just how much bed size matters until they find themselves not getting a good night's rest.

A few of the main reasons that upgrading your bed size can make a real difference in your sleep quality are

  • Personal Space: A bigger bed gives each individual sufficient space to roll over throughout the night without colliding with their partner.
  • Less Motion Transfer: More space means less sense of movement when your partner rolls around or changes positions.
  • Better Sleep Quality: Research indicates that individuals sleep more soundly in larger beds and experience fewer interruptions and more restful sleep cycles.
  • Increased Intimacy and Comfort: A bigger bed enables you to snuggle when you feel like it and even stretch out when you don't.
