To sleep comfortably, you need to have a bed that can accommodate and support your weight and size. You should also be able to roll on your side conveniently especially if you share the bed with someone.
Beds come in different sizes: twin, full, queen and king sizes. If you are alone, the twin or full size is more than adequate for you. However, some people prefer the queen or king size even if they are alone. Both the queen and king size fits a couple or if the bed is to be shared with someone.
If you are to choose between the king and queen size bed, which would you choose? Following are the differences of these two kinds of beds.
