Where to buy full size blankets - NOT QUEEN!

[DebBrown]

Who knew this would be tricky? When I search for a full size cotton blanket, I get full/queen blankets and these are too big - usually 90x90. I just want to find a smaller one made for a full size bed. Any ideas?

Ikea used to carry European sizing for bedding, as they have European sized Mattresses. You might look there or online.

Thanks. I took a look online and they are all full/queen 90x90. Apparently it is too much trouble to make and sell a blanket sized for a full/double bed.

They carry some twin/full too.

I looked at the bedspreads they have, there is a drop down to change to twin/full where sizing is like this:

Product dimensions
Bedspread length: 110 "
Bedspread width: 71 "

Throw/Blankets have the following...

I ended up buying a twin. It at least covered top of bed.

Have you tried Ebay? That's where I've gone when I can't find what I need through regular retail. It seems some folks shop estate sales for Ebay inventory. I've found brand new, in package items for a fraction of the regular retail price.

I'm looking for a cotton blanket, not a bedspread but thanks for checking. I will try ebay. That's a good idea.

I just looked at Wayfair. Every cotton blanket I clicked on is full/queen. Interesting.

They are not too much different in size but I have a 90" one now that tends to drag on the floor and it feels heavy because of the excess on the edges. I found some at The Company Store but they are a bit pricey.

Funny... this site lists all the different sizes but when you click to buy, you still get the full/queen option for most of them. I ended up buying one that people complained had a lot of shrinkage. Hopefully that will work for me.

Buy twin size. Our 5th wheel RV had an RV queen, which was low to the floor (on a platform). Twin size comforter or blankets covered it without puddling on the floor around it.

I agree with Jim, buy Twin size.

On the site I linked in post #10 - when I clicked on the hyperlink "Shop All Blankets" and then clicked on "Twin" on the subsequent page - many choices came up.

Not sure why you're having trouble finding the size you would prefer.
