You know what happens: you finally enter the REM cycle and suddenly you are awakened by a knock on your bedroom door. “Mom, Dad, can I sleep in your bed?” you hear.
You’ve read the parenting books. You’ve read articles on the Internet. You’ve heard Dr. Phil say it: don’t let your child sleep in your bed. But right now, you’re exhausted and need sleep. And you know that if you kick him out, there’s a good chance he’ll throw a tantrum and end up pounding on your door every hour until you wake up a mess.
So instead of telling him to go back to sleep, you invite him to sleep in your bed. But from that point on, the problems pile up: while they’re asleep in five seconds, you’re wide awake. You have an arm in your face. Suddenly, the child rolls over and kicks you in the knee. Breathing in your sleep is terrible. Everything is too close.
Even worse, you wake up grumpy after a night spent with your partner and child in bed. You tell yourself it can’t happen again, but night after night you sleep poorly because your bed is overcrowded. Even a double bed can feel small in this situation.
If this sounds like you, don’t worry. There is a solution, and it’s pretty awesome. Introducing the Ace Collection of king-size mattresses. These are indeed beds (and custom bedding) designed for families who sleep together (or, you know, for giants).
Giant beds are available in three different sizes: Ace, Ace Player and Ace Family Size. Ace and Ace Player are pretty similar, but have different designs. Ace has dimensions of 108″ L x 80″ L and Ace Player has dimensions of 80″ L x 108″ L. Ace Player is suitable for those who like longer beds, while Ace is better suited for those who prefer wider beds.
If you have several little ones who like to crawl into your bed at night, you may need the big kahuna of Ace mattresses, the Ace Family, which measures 144″ wide x 80″ long.
These mattresses look appealing, until you see the price tag. The mattresses cost between $2,000 and $4,000, but honestly? Compared to the price of a regular mattress, it’s not that bad. Also think about how much sleep you’ll get and how you’ll be able to stretch.
A tip: measure your room before you buy one of these mattresses. Hopefully, you won’t have to knock down a wall or anything to get it into your room.
These family size mattresses are also great for a family night in with popcorn and a good movie, or for older kids to sleep over if they want their friends to come over and sleep. They are truly versatile and awesome.
Do you struggle with your kids wanting to sleep in your bed?
Would you ever purchase one of these giant mattresses?
