It is sometimes difficult to understand the names and categories of bed linen: single, one-and-a-half bed linen, double, children's Euro, etc. If you live in Russia, then you have probably heard about a one-and-a-half bed size. This standard, like other dimensions for such furniture, is fixed by GOST. In fact, this means that a sleeping place can comfortably accommodate either one person of any size, or two people but without much comfort.
According to statistics, one-and-a-half beds are purchased more often than others. This is not surprising, because the price is not much different from the single model, while the functionality is much higher. A similar analogy applies to bedding. Thus, a one-and-a-half set of bed linen costs 15% more than a single size, and 20% cheaper than a double size.

Standard size of a single bed
One-and-a-half bed linen is suitable in size for a one-and-a-half bed. This bed is suitable for a bachelor who wants to save free space in the room. Another lorry can be placed in a teenager’s room. Standard parameters for a one-and-a-half bed: width from 120 to 160 cm, length 190-200 cm. With the largest width of 1.5 beds, of course, you can accommodate two people, but still, for constant sleep, it is better for a married couple to choose a double bed.
By the way, foreign semi-trucks are slightly larger than domestic ones; beds with a width of 140 cm or more are considered the standard there.
Tips for choosing
When choosing bed linen from both Russian and foreign manufacturers, it is necessary not only to take into account the difference in the sizes of each type, but also the configuration.
Pillowcases
For example, one-and-a-half sets are designed for one person, but they can be used by two people, so in such a set there are often two pillowcases.
size table
Pillowcase size | Pillow size |
Standard square 70×70 cm | from 68x68 cm to 70x70 cm |
Standard rectangular 50×70 cm | from 48x68 cm to 50x70 cm |
There are sets with one pillowcase, so when choosing, you need to read all the information on the package.
Duvet cover
As for the duvet cover, it is usually selected to match the size of the existing blanket.
- The duvet cover should be 2-3 centimeters larger than the blanket.
size table
Duvet cover | Blanket | Bed | Set |
from 143x210 cm to 160x230 cm | from 140x200 cm to 160x220 cm | up to 140 cm | One-and-a-half (one-and-a-half-bed) |
from 175x210 cm to 180x220 cm | from 170x205 cm to 180x210 cm | from 140 cm to 180 cm | Double (Russian standard) |
from 200x220 cm to 215x220 cm | from 195x210 cm to 205x210 cm | from 200 cm to 220 cm | Double (Euro standard) |
from 220x240 cm to 240x260 cm | from 220x240 cm to 240x260 cm | from 220 cm | King size (Euro Maxi) |
from 143x210 cm to 160x230 cm | from 140x210 cm to 160x220 cm | from 180 cm | Family (two duvet covers) |
Sheet
There are two types of sheets:
- regular classic,
- tension (with an elastic band).
The disadvantages and advantages of a regular sheet are obvious:
- suitable for all beds and mattresses,
- is inexpensive,
but at the same time she can:
- get lost,
- crumple,
- slide off the mattress.
Stretch sheets do not slide off the mattress , as they are fixed with an elastic band running along its contour.
size table
Classic bed sheet | Bed sheet with elastic band | Mattress size | Set size |
from 145x200 cm | 90x200 cm 140x200 cm | 90x200 cm 140x200 cm | One-and-a-half (one-and-a-half-bed) |
from 175x210 cm | 160x200 cm | 160x200 cm | Double Family |
from 200x215 cm | 180x200 cm | 180x200 cm | Double (Euro) Family |
from 220x240 cm | 200x220 cm | 200x220 cm | King size Family |
- Fitted sheets can only be used with mattresses, so it is very important to choose the right size, and for this you need to know the dimensions of the mattress.
Standard sizes of one and a half sets in Russia
The sizes of one-and-a-half sets have a wide range, because one-and-a-half beds have different widths. In this regard, you can find the following sizes:
One and a half set of bed linen “Ariadna”

The weight of 1.5 KPB is 1500-1600 g.
Standard sizes of one and a half sets from foreign manufacturers
In addition to domestic manufacturers, you can purchase a set of bed linen from abroad. For example, on the market today there are bedding sets from Austria, Italy, Germany and Turkey.
One-and-a-half size foreign-made PCBs are designated as extra long single or 1.5-bed. Each country may have its own standards regarding bedding sizes. But it is still possible to derive some basic parameters of a 1.5 sleeping set that you may encounter when purchasing.
Bed sheet: from 160×220 to 180×260 cm.
Duvet cover: from 140×205 to 180×210 cm.
Pillowcase: 50×70 or 70×70 cm.
The contents of the sets may also differ from the Russian ones. For example, German and Austrian sets often do not have a sheet. In addition, the standard pillow size may vary from country to country. For example, in France the pillows are 65 by 65 cm, and in Germany they are 80 by 80 cm. Accordingly, the pillowcases in the set will be the same size. Another well-known supplier of bed linen to our country is, of course, China, but bedding from the Middle Kingdom is similar in parameters to domestically produced sets.

- Quality of materials;

- Bed linen size

Teenage (one-and-a-half-sleeper) | from 143x210 cm to 160x230 cm | from 145x200 cm | standard 50x70 cm |
First of all, you need to purchase a mattress, based on the size of which, choose the linen itself.
Mattresses of three standards are available for children and teenagers:
- For newborns .
- younger children .
- For teenagers .
For teenagers and young children, the size of the sheet is most often not critical.
But for a newborn’s crib, it is advisable to choose a set in which the sheet is 40-50 centimeters longer and wider than the mattress. This will allow you to tuck the sheet under it, and during the night it will not get out from under the mattress and will not slide down.
In addition to the sheet, the bedding set for babies includes a duvet cover and one pillowcase. Their size should not exceed the size of the blanket and pillow by more than 4 centimeters.
This is considered to be the optimal reserve:
- on the one hand, it leaves no room for the bedding to fidget inside,
- on the other hand, such linen, even after shrinking as a result of the first washes, will not be “tight” for a blanket and pillow.
