Dimensional grid sursil ortho high beret. Sizes of orthopedic mattresses

When buying, you need to evaluate not only the degree of comfort of the model, choose the necessary rigidity and type of filler, but also the correct dimensions of orthopedic mattresses. What products are available on the market? How to choose the size of the mattress for the new and old bed? And how to find the perfect mattress for a child? We have prepared for you the most complete answers to these and other questions.

How to avoid a common mistake

One of the most common mistakes is trying to purchase a mattress from a European manufacturer for a bed made according to the standards of the United States. The fact is that in Europe and America different types of markings are accepted: centimeters and inches. If we recalculate the dimensions of the “royal” mattress 80 by 78 inches, we will get a little more than 203 and 198 inches in centimeters. This model will not fit standard European premium-class beds measuring 2 by 2 m.

The ideal option would be to buy a bed with a mattress. True, this is not always possible, because you may be satisfied with the quality and design of the furniture, and at the same time you will not like the characteristics and comfort of the bed. In this case it is recommended to choose products from one country of manufacture.

The most fastidious buyers can order a mattress at the factory according to individual measurements.

Standard sizes of orthopedic mattresses

For adults

There is a huge range of standard mattresses on the market.

With a length of 190, 195 or 200 cm, their width is:

single beds - 80 cm;
one and a half sleeping - 120 cm;
double - 140, 160, 180, 190, 195, 200 cm.

A simple experiment will help determine a comfortable size. You need to lie down on the mattress, while its length should exceed your height by 15-20 cm, and in width you should freely pass with your arms bent at the elbows.

For kids

For newborns and older children, mattresses are made to strict standards. First of all, it is about environmental friendliness of the materials used and high orthopedic effect. The standard size of a baby mattress in a crib for a newborn is 60 by 120 cm. These parameters can be increased if you need to choose a mattress for an older child. Maximum width - 80 cm, length - 160 cm.

Orthopedic mattresses of non-standard sizes

Non-standard models are custom-made, as well as those that have a non-rectangular shape. Round products have their own size range:

small - diameter 2 m;
medium - diameter 2.2 m;
large - diameter from 2.3 m.

Most manufacturers are willing to fulfill special orders, making mattresses in strict accordance with the parameters specified by the customer, as well as releasing oval or curly models. This option will cost 5-10% more, but you can choose the type of filler and the number of layers, upholstery materials, as well as the type of construction (with or without springs).

There are also rectangular mattresses with non-standard sizes, for example, Pasteur orthopedic mattresses, but about them in another review.

Thickness of orthopedic mattresses

Another parameter to consider is the thickness. The height of a springless children's mattress can vary from 6 to 13 cm, a mattress with a spring block - up to 18 cm and more. Some cribs are only suitable for mattresses of a certain thickness, and you should pay attention to this by studying the information in the furniture passport.

Depending on the type of filler and design, adult mattresses can have a thickness of 5 to 50 cm. The height of springless models for adults is from 15 to 24 m, spring - from 18 to 32 cm.

For a person of average weight a model with a height of 16-18 cm will be comfortable. Many experts, however, assure that the higher the mattress, the more comfortable it is.

A thick mattress is likely to be more comfortable, because it has an increased number of filler layers, which means improved anatomical and orthopedic effects.

Mattresses below 15 cm are suitable only as a base for a temporary bed or as an addition to the main mattress of a sofa or bed.

How to determine the size of a mattress for an old bed

Well, if the passport to the bed is preserved. From it you can quickly find out the exact dimensions of the bed. But what if the furniture documents are lost?

Determining the right parameters by taking measurements from an old mattress is not the best solution. During operation, it could shrink so much that it was significantly deformed and changed in size. If you do not have a passport for the bed, where the dimensions of the bed are indicated, you can measure them yourself. To do this, you need a tape measure, which you need to attach along the inner perimeter.

Try to choose a mattress that will exactly match the dimensions of the bed. If it turns out to be 2-3 more than a centimeter, this is not critical, because it will still be possible to lay it on the base. That's just because of friction, the life of the mattress upholstery and the product itself will be significantly reduced.

The sizes and prices of orthopedic mattresses are directly related: the larger the size, the more expensive the mattress. The cost of the product, however, is significantly affected by the type of construction and the materials used, so not only a well-chosen size will be the key to buying a comfortable mattress.

So that you can correctly determine the size of a child’s shoes, we recommend that you put his foot on a paper sheet, then circle it with a pen or pencil and measure its contour using a tape measure or ruler. If the value that you received will be between some table values, you need to round up towards the larger of them. For example, in the lower figure, we got a value between 12 and 12.5 centimeters, in other words, between 19.5 and 20 sizes. In this case, you need to choose the largest - 20. Please note that in no case should you purchase for growth, since the instep support will not be in the right place, as a result of which it will lose its orthopedic properties.

If you have any questions...

Caring mother:

In your online store for children with a foot length of 14.5 cm, size 23 is recommended. But the insole with him in winter boots is 15.5 cm. Do I understand correctly that a child can wear such until his leg grows 1 centimeter and becomes equal to the insole? But there must also be a margin for fur for about one and a half centimeters? I would like to clarify that by incorrect installation of the foot, we remove the arch support, therefore, it will be possible to wear boots with a margin. It is necessary to choose the right size with a margin of at least one season.

Professional manager:

The difference between sizes is some difference between the recommended limit values for them. If the foot grows with the insole to the same size, then when walking, when the foot increases its length due to the lowering of the arch, it will not have enough space to increase. That is, it turns out that the shoes will simply be small. This is extremely uncomfortable, and there is a high chance that some orthopedic problems may appear or worsen. Therefore, the length of the insole should be 5-7 millimeters longer than the length of the foot. One and a half centimeters under the fur is not a reserve, but the place that he himself occupies, in addition to this, the previously described 5-7 millimeters to increase the length of the foot when walking. That is, if the size is 23, then its insole length will be about 15 cm. It will rest against the walls of the boot, since there is no fur under it. And above it - fur, "taking away" those same one and a half centimeters from the insole. Therefore, if your child has a foot equal to 14.5 cm, then the sandals necessary for him should have 23, and winter boots should at least have 24 dimensions. Having got rid of the arch support, you do not increase the length of the product itself (that is, the insole), but only its "rise". while the size remains the same. Therefore, purchasing shoes "with a margin", you get a product with a larger size than what you need right now. Such shoes are also uncomfortable and in the process of walking can rub children's legs. Leg growth is extremely uneven, and it is almost impossible to guess what size it will become in six months. The best option is, of course, trying on shoes, as sellers are also consultants almost everywhere.

Caring mother:

By "in reserve" is meant one winter period - 3-4 months. If 24 is the minimum size, then what will be the maximum in my case, please tell me?

Professional manager:

It is never possible to predict with complete certainty how much a child's foot will grow during the winter season, but it is known that it usually grows fastest during the summer. But still, we believe that it is unlikely to grow more than one size. Therefore, if by the beginning of the period 24 the size of the child is not "back to back", then he will most likely be needed. And if the shoes still don’t press, but just about ... Then it’s already more - 25. But here, nevertheless, it’s impossible to guess one hundred percent in advance and all that remains is to measure.

Different manufacturers may have their own dimensional grid for both adult and children's shoes. For example, this manufacturer has compiled his own, special dimensional grid, its peculiarity is that some shoe models have double sizes, i.e. These shoes fit 2 sizes of feet.

These models also have a fleece liner, which, if necessary, is removed. It has a margin of length and completeness. Such shoes are designed for more than one season, besides, the child will be comfortable walking in them.

How to determine the size that your baby needs?

To do this, you need to determine the length of his feet. It is necessary to put the baby barefoot on clean paper and circle the foot around the office, the pencil must be held strictly vertically relative to the floor.

When the drawing is received, you need to take a ruler and measure the distance from the heel to the tip of the big toe. You also need to circle the second leg, and take measurements. If the length of the feet is different, then there is nothing to worry about, choose a larger value. Then, according to the data received, you need to determine the size according to the grid proposed by the manufacturer. You should not take winter shoes with a large margin, but in order to be able to wear them on warm socks, you can add 1-1.5cm. Having done everything right, you can be sure that you can choose shoes for a child without trying them on so that they fit him.
