When choosing, it is not enough to just know the size of the cot. The sheet is chosen according to the mattress, the duvet cover according to the duvet, and the pillowcase according to the pillow. Confusing these details is a common reason why bedding does not fit upon delivery.
1. Start with the mattress size
For a cot with a 60 × 120 cm mattress, you need a 60 × 120 cm sheet. For a fitted sheet, also check the corner height. The label 120 × 60 × 15 cm indicates the length, width, and height of the mattress the sheet is intended for. The notations 60 × 120 and 120 × 60 designate the same surface area.
Choose a suitable model among our cot sheets.
2. Measure the duvet and pillow separately
The size of the covers is not determined by the mattress. Lay the insert flat and measure it from edge to edge. A 90 × 110 cm cover belongs on a 90 × 110 cm duvet, and a 40 × 60 cm cover on a 40 × 60 cm pillow. A smaller cover will compress the insert; a larger one will be too loose.
The following dimensions are often used in MSONYA sets:
- duvet and cover — 90 × 110 cm
- pillow and case — 40 × 60 cm
- fitted sheet — 120 × 60 × 15 cm
However, always verify the dimensions and content for each specific product.
You can find the entire selection in the cot bedding category.
3. Why do covers have different dimensions?
On the market, you will also encounter combinations such as 90 × 130 + 45 × 65 cm, 100 × 135 + 40 × 60 cm, or 90 × 135 cm with a different pillow size. Therefore, there is no single universal "cot" size. Compare every detail individually and do not purchase based solely on the product name.
Quick check before ordering
- mattress: length × width × height;
- duvet: length × width of the insert;
- pillow: length × width of the insert;
- product: dimensions of each piece and allowed tolerance, e.g., ±2 cm.
