Is one partner double mattress or two single mattresses better?
12 January 2023The choice between one large twin mattress and two single mattresses depends on personal preferences and needs. Both options have their advantages and disadvantages. Don't know which option to choose? Read our comparison and you will be clear.
Partner double mattress
You know the feeling. You want to move to your partner's side of the bed when you suddenly fit into the gap between the mattresses. The romance is gone. And a shared sheet does not solve this problem by any means.
That's why they exist partner double mattress, where there is no gap between the mattresses. Double mattresses are usually 160, 180 or 200 cm wide. The length varies between 200 and 220 centimeters.
It is generally said that one large partner double mattress is only suitable for couples who have similar preferences regarding the hardness of the mattress and want to sleep on the same surface.
For our mattress SARA however, this rule does not apply. With our mattresses the hardness of each half of the mattress may be different according to individual needs of each of the partners. Thanks to integrated orthopedic lamellar grids each partner can have their own weight category. JOne half of the SÁRA mattress can therefore be softer, the other half firmer. All our double mattresses have in common is the cover that holds the entire mattress together.
We manufacture all our mattresses in our workshop in Valašské Meziříčí, that is why we are able to make you a double mattress precisely tailored so that you can feel fresh and rested every morning.

Two separate mattresses
The second option is two separate mattresses. Their advantages include easier maintenance and handling. Cover without problems can also be washed in a regular washing machine. In addition, it is easier to ventilate or rotate the mattress, as it weighs less than a double mattress.

For two single mattresses, the gap between the mattresses can be solved by purchasing a common mattress protector.
