Thailand · Size guide
Choose by measured space, not mattress labels.
How to measure
Start with the floor area you can keep dry and level.
Measure the intended floor, platform, or bed-frame surface in centimetres. A shikibuton should sit fully supported, without hanging over an edge or dipping into a soft base.
Inch values are useful references for shoppers used to Twin, Full, or Double labels, but the centimetre dimensions are the product record.
- HIMARI Single: 210 x 100 x approx. 10 cm.
- HIMARI Wide Single: 210 x 120 x approx. 10 cm.
- HIMARI Extra Wide Single: 210 x 140 x approx. 10 cm.
- SORA Single: 200 x 100 x approx. 12 cm.
- SORA Double: 200 x 140 x approx. 12 cm.
Fit and movement
Width changes comfort more than the name suggests.
A compact width suits small rooms and traditional floor sleep. A wider width gives more turning room for one sleeper or a more generous guest setup.
For Australia, current checkout support is limited to the 100 cm width for both HIMARI and SORA.
Are OFUTON KOBO sizes the same as Thai bed-size references?
No. The official dimensions are Japanese centimetre measurements. Inch values are approximate references only.
Should I choose HIMARI or SORA by thickness?
Thickness matters, but feel matters too. HIMARI is the standard thickness used in Japanese homes, approx. 10 cm with a balanced firm feel. SORA is approx. 12 cm, made deeper for side sleepers and sleepers used to a Western mattress.
