I know to measure a bed by the width in inches. but if I want to buy online they have code names for everything and it never matches my bed. (I have the seemingly jewish size of 44").
I tried to google a sizing chart but it just doesnt add up to the standard 39" and 48" that I'm used to.

Twin = 39"
Full = 54"
Queen = 60"
Anything in between (44", 48") is Jewish sizes and not widely sold.

44” is a custom size that you can only find in a Jewish store as far as I know .

You can use full fitted sheet on a 48 inch bed and tuck it in. No problem. I’ve done it with many sets.

thank you. this simplifies it a lot. are these sizes universal or do different brands call it with different names?

In the UK and Europe the sizes and names are completely different

I’ve found 48” as a “non-Jewish” size, called “3/4 Full”/RV size. I guess it fits the size mattress that is found in RV’s. Still not a common size, but not exclusively Jewish.

Also on Shein the size 120x200 for the fitted sheet was close enough for me for my 48 inch beds

Yes I learned this the hard way when I ordered a set of linen from my marks and Spencer and it never fit my blanket right

I even use Queen some times. It's possible it works for me as I have really tall mattresses?
