These sizes are almost always communicated in metric measurements, known as Medida Mexicana, or Mexican Measurements. For simplicity\u2019s sake, all measurements will also be stated in feet and inches.<\/p>\n American Measurements<\/p>\n Mexican Measurements<\/p>\n At one meter long, Individual size mattresses are slightly wider than mattresses in other parts of the world. The Matrimonial bed size is the standard for double beds in Mexico, with variations being rare.<\/p>\n When buying bedding, please note that American Queen size sheets will be too large on a Mexican Queen bed, and vice versa. Too large or too small sheets can slip off, rip, or otherwise get damaged. The small differences in size are the main differences between Mexican and American style mattresses. While American mattresses tend to have more variety and variation on standard sizes, there are similar counterparts in Mexico.

Consider how easily you\u2019ll be able to find accessories for your bed.

Mexican mattresses and accessories that fit them properly are generally harder to find in the United States.
