Two options work: one 140 cm Extra-Wide Single, which is spacious for one and can suit two smaller sleepers, or two shikibuton laid side by side. For two adults of average build, or if either of you moves a lot at night, two side by side give more room and each person their own surface, so movement is less likely to disturb the other.
Two side by side
- Two 100 cm Japanese Standard Singles make a sleeping area about 200 cm wide.
- Each folds and airs separately, which is lighter work than handling one large piece.
- Choose the same model for both: HIMARI and SORA differ in thickness (approx. 10 and 12 cm) and length (210 and 200 cm), so a mixed pair would not sit level.
One 140 cm shikibuton
HIMARI 日葵 and SORA 宙 are both made in the 140 cm Extra-Wide Single. By Japanese proportions it can suit two smaller sleepers; it weighs approx. 7 kg (HIMARI) or 8 kg (SORA). Available widths vary by delivery country, and the product page shows those offered for yours.
Before you order
Measure the floor or frame, allowing space to walk around the bed, and remember that the centimetre dimensions are the official sizes.
