    We moved to a new place recently, I assumed the bed was a kingsize (5ft) but my sheets are a tad small really have to stretch them over the corners, on measuring it we discovered its roughly 5'2, does anyone know what size bed this is? is it a queen? is our only option to buy 6ft sheets and duvets? I heard that Ikea beds are an unusual size, cant see any label to identify it as an ikea bed, anyone know if they do duvets for 5'2 beds?

    You're correct, IKEA size is 160cm x 200cm (5'3" x 6'6") though it may not actually be an IKEA bed.
    IKEA duvets and linen comes in appropriate sizes so you'll find something to fit.

    thanks, not sure if it is 6'6 in length though, will have to get measure tape out again!

    Queen size beds are normally 4ft6in, King 5ft and SuperKing 6ft. I would recommend getting a 6ft duvet, in my experience duvets always look better when slightly bigger rather than too small. For the sheets you could go for a 6ft non-fitted sheet, hth.

    Ikea comes up alot here on this forum.

    For a very good obvious reason.

    Even I have an Ikea bed with a 200x160 mattress but it seems hard to find
    sheets and duvet covers this size, except at Ikea ,high quality cotton very soft and their products are more practical than the rest...!
