If you’ve recently moved to Israel—or you’re furnishing a new home—you’ve probably discovered that Israeli bed sizes don’t always match the standard US sizes. Choosing the wrong mattress, blanket, or bedding can quickly become frustrating when measurements don’t line up.
This guide compares Israeli and US bed sizes, helping you understand the differences so you can shop with confidence and find the perfect fit for your bedroom.
Why Are Israeli Bed Sizes Different?
Unlike the United States, where mattress sizes follow a nationwide standard, Israeli mattresses are generally narrower and come in slightly different dimensions. As a result, American mattresses, fitted sheets, blankets, and duvet covers don’t always fit Israeli beds correctly.
Understanding these differences before you buy can save you time, money, and unnecessary frustration.
Mattress Size Comparison
| Israeli Bed Size | Israeli Mattress Size | Closest US Equivalent | US Mattress Size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard (Yachid) | 80 × 190 cm (32 × 75 in) | Twin | 100 × 190 cm (39 × 75 in) |
| Wide (Mita Va’Chatzi) | 120 × 190 cm (48 × 75 in) | Full | 140 × 190 cm (54 × 75 in) |
| Queen (Zugi) | 160 × 200 cm (63 × 79 in) | US Queen* | 152 × 203 cm (60 × 80 in) |
| King (Zugi XL) | 180 × 200 cm (71 × 79 in) | US King* | 193 × 203 cm (76 × 80 in) |
*Please note that Israeli Queen and King sizes are similar to—but not identical to—their US counterparts.

Blankets: Finding the Perfect Fit
Blankets and duvets are intentionally designed to be larger than the mattress they cover. This extra size allows them to drape comfortably over the sides of the bed while providing better warmth and comfort.
Just as mattress sizes differ between countries, blanket sizes do as well.
The standard Israeli blanket measures 150 × 200 cm (59 × 79 in), while the common US and European size measures 160 × 210 cm (63 × 83 in).
Choosing the correct blanket size helps ensure a better fit, improved comfort, and a more polished look for your bed.
At Swiss Dreams, we offer both Israeli-size and US-size blankets, so you don’t have to compromise on comfort or fit.
