Full Beds & Full Size Bed Frames

Looking for the perfect bed to complete your bedroom? A full size bed, also known as a double bed, offers a fantastic balance of comfort and space, making it a popular choice for many homes. Whether you're furnishing a guest room, a teenager's bedroom, or a cozy master suite, a full bed provides ample room for a single sleeper to stretch out comfortably, and it can even accommodate two adults for a cozy night's sleep.

At RC Willey, we understand that finding the right furniture is about more than just size; it's about style, durability, and value. That's why we offer a wide selection of full beds and full size bed frames designed to complement any decor and fit your lifestyle. Explore our collection today and discover the ideal full bed for your space!

What is a Full Size Bed? Dimensions & Details

When you're shopping for a new bed, understanding the dimensions is key to ensuring it fits your room and your sleeping needs. So, what exactly is a full size bed?

A standard full size bed measures approximately 54 inches wide by 75 inches long. This size is often referred to as a "double bed," so if you hear someone mention a double bed, they're talking about the same thing as a full bed.

Let's clear up some common questions about full bed dimensions and comparisons:

• Is a full bed 60x80? No, a full bed is 54x75 inches. The 60x80 inch measurement is for a queen size bed.
• Is a full size bed just 2 twins? Not at all! Two twin beds side-by-side would actually be wider than a king size bed. A twin bed is typically 38 inches wide by 75 inches long.
• What is meant by a full bed? It simply means a bed that's "full" size, offering more space than a twin but less than a queen or king. It's a versatile option for many different sleepers and room sizes.

Who is a Full Bed Best Suited For?

Full beds are incredibly versatile and can be a great fit for various sleepers and situations:

• Single Adults: If you're an adult who sleeps alone and wants more space than a twin bed offers, a full bed is an excellent choice. You'll have plenty of room to spread out and get comfortable without taking up too much bedroom space.
• Teenagers: As kids grow, a twin bed can start to feel cramped. A full bed provides ample room for a growing teenager, giving them a comfortable space to sleep and relax.
• Guest Rooms: A full bed is perfect for a guest room. It can comfortably accommodate one guest or a cozy couple, making your visitors feel right at home.
• Smaller Bedrooms or Apartments: If your bedroom has limited space, a full bed can be a smart solution. It offers a good amount of sleeping area without overwhelming the room, allowing for other furniture like dressers or nightstands.

While a full bed can technically fit two adults, it's important to note that 54 inches of width means each person gets about 27 inches of space. This can be quite cozy, especially if you both like to spread out. For couples who prefer more personal space, a queen or king size bed might be a better fit. However, for occasional use or for couples who enjoy snuggling, a full bed works just fine.

Explore Our Full Bed Frame Options

The bed frame is the foundation of your sleep space, providing support for your mattress and defining the style of your bedroom. At RC Willey, we offer a diverse range of full bed frames to match your personal taste and functional needs.

A Style for Every Bedroom

Your bed frame is a central piece of furniture that sets the tone for your entire bedroom decor. We carry full bed frames in a variety of styles to complement any aesthetic:

• Upholstered Beds: These beds feature padded headboards and sometimes footboards, covered in fabric, faux leather, or velvet. They add a touch of softness, luxury, and coziness to your room. You can find upholstered beds with sleek, modern lines or classic tufted designs for a more traditional feel. They're perfect for leaning against while reading or watching TV.
• Wood Bed Frames: From rustic farmhouse charm to sleek, contemporary designs, wood bed frames offer timeless appeal and durability. You'll find options in various finishes, including rich dark woods, light natural tones, and painted white or grey. Wood frames are known for their sturdy construction and ability to complement a wide range of decor styles.
• Metal Bed Frames: For a minimalist, industrial, or even vintage look, metal bed frames are an excellent choice. They often feature intricate scrollwork or clean, geometric lines. Metal frames are typically very durable and can make a smaller room feel more open due to their lighter visual presence.

No matter your preference, our selection ensures you can find a full bed frame that perfectly complements your existing furniture and bedroom style.

Features & Functionality

Beyond aesthetics, modern full bed frames offer practical features that can enhance your bedroom's functionality:

• Storage Beds: If you're short on space, a full bed frame with built-in storage can be a game-changer. Many designs include drawers integrated into the base, providing convenient storage for linens, clothing, or other bedroom essentials. This helps keep your room tidy and organized.
• Trundle Beds: Ideal for guest rooms or kids' rooms, some full bed frames come with a trundle, which is a secondary bed that pulls out from underneath the main frame. It's perfect for sleepovers or accommodating an extra guest without needing a separate bed.
• Box Spring Requirements: Do full bed frames require a box spring? It depends on the frame!
• Platform Beds: Many modern full bed frames are designed as "platform beds," meaning they have a solid or slatted base that provides direct support for your mattress. With a platform bed, you typically don't need a box spring.
• Traditional Frames: Other full bed frames, especially those with a headboard, footboard, and side rails, are designed to be used with both a mattress and a box spring. The box spring provides additional support and raises the mattress to a comfortable height. Always check the product description or ask our team if a box spring is recommended for the specific full bed frame you're interested in.

We focus on offering full bed frames that are not only stylish but also built with quality construction for long-lasting durability, ensuring you get a great night's sleep for years to come.

Full Bed vs. Other Sizes: Making the Right Choice

Choosing the right bed size is a big decision, impacting your comfort, your room's layout, and your budget. Let's compare the full bed to other common mattress sizes to help you decide if it's the worth getting a full size bed for your needs.

Full vs. Twin

• Twin Bed: Measures 38 inches wide by 75 inches long. It's the smallest standard adult bed size, ideal for children, very small rooms, or bunk beds.
• Full Bed: At 54 inches wide by 75 inches long, a full bed offers 16 more inches of width than a twin. This extra space makes a significant difference for a single sleeper, allowing them to spread out more comfortably without feeling confined. If you have the space, a full bed is often a more comfortable choice for a single adult or growing teenager than a twin.

Full vs. Queen

This is one of the most common comparisons, and for good reason.

• Full Bed: 54 inches wide x 75 inches long.
• Queen Bed: 60 inches wide x 80 inches long.

A queen bed is 6 inches wider and 5 inches longer than a full bed. While 5 or 6 inches might not sound like much, it can make a big difference, especially for couples.

• For Single Sleepers: Both full and queen beds offer plenty of space for one person. If your room is on the smaller side, a full bed might be the better choice to save space. If you have a larger room and want maximum sprawl room, a queen is great.
• For Couples: A queen bed is generally recommended for couples as it provides more personal space for each sleeper (30 inches per person compared to 27 inches on a full). This extra width and length can significantly improve comfort, especially if one or both partners tend to move around a lot during sleep.

So, is it worth getting a full-size bed over a queen? Yes, if:

• You're a single sleeper who wants more room than a twin but doesn't need the extra width of a queen.
• You have a smaller bedroom where a queen would feel too cramped.
• You're looking for a more affordable option, as full beds and their accompanying mattresses are typically less expensive than queens.

Full vs. King

• Full Bed: 54 inches wide x 75 inches long.
• King Bed: 76 inches wide x 80 inches long.

A king bed is significantly larger than a full bed, offering a substantial amount of space. It's the widest standard bed size, ideal for master bedrooms where space isn't an issue and couples want maximum personal sleeping area. If you're comparing a full to a king, you're likely looking for very different levels of space and comfort.

Ultimately, the best bed size for you depends on your room size, your budget, and how many people (and pets!) will be sleeping in the bed regularly.

Finding Your Perfect Full Bed: Price & Value

One of the first questions many people ask is, "How much does a full-size bed usually cost?" The price of a full size bed can vary widely depending on several factors, but at RC Willey, we're committed to offering affordable options without compromising on quality.

What Influences the Price?

• Materials: The type of material used for the bed frame (solid wood, engineered wood, metal, upholstered fabric) significantly impacts the cost. High-quality solid wood or premium upholstered materials will naturally be more expensive than simpler metal frames.
• Design & Features: Beds with intricate designs, built-in storage (like drawers or shelving), or specialized features (like adjustable bases) will typically cost more than basic frames.
• Brand: Reputable furniture brands often come with a higher price tag due to their reputation for quality, craftsmanship, and design innovation.
• Mattress: Remember that the price of a full bed frame is separate from the mattress. You'll need to factor in the cost of a comfortable full size mattress to complete your sleep setup.

At RC Willey, we believe in providing excellent value. This means offering a range of full beds at different price points, ensuring you can find a quality, durable, and comfortable option that fits your budget. We frequently have sales and special financing options available to make your dream bedroom even more accessible. Our goal is to help you invest in a piece of furniture that will provide comfort and style for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions About Full Beds

We get a lot of questions about full beds, and we're happy to provide the answers you need to make an informed decision.

• Are full-size beds being phased out?

  Absolutely not! Full size beds remain a very popular and practical choice for many people. While queen and king sizes have gained popularity, the full bed continues to be a staple for single adults, teenagers, guest rooms, and smaller living spaces due to its efficient use of space and comfortable dimensions.

• Why is it called a full-size bed?

  Historically, the "full" bed was considered the standard size for a bed, offering a "full" amount of space compared to smaller single beds. It was also commonly referred to as a "double bed" because it was the first size considered large enough to comfortably accommodate two people, even if it's a bit cozy by today's standards for couples.

• How big is a full-size single bed?

  A "full-size single bed" is a bit of a redundant term. A full bed is typically considered a single size that offers more space than a twin, or a "double" size that can accommodate two people cozily. The dimensions remain 54 inches wide by 75 inches long.
