Bed size for teens

Queen or king.

If you are buying a new bed - Queen.

If the kid can somehow still fit in a twin that hasn’t somehow gotten saggy, okay fine.

Full but we got it about age 7-8. No space for a queen or I would have done that.

Queen - inherited from us when we upgraded to king. Has always been a restless sleeper and fell off the bed fairly regularly when he had a twin bed.

Twin or full doesn’t work for anyone over 5’10”

So what do tall kids do in college when a twin is all that’s offered?

College dorms have Twin XL beds, which are 5" longer than a regular twin size bed.

My son had a twin bed until about the age of 16 when he moved to our basement bedroom that had a king size bed.

My daughter had a twin bed until 14 when we got her a queen size mattress.

Teen has a queen now.

Queen. His dorm room had a full size bed.

twin - 17y

We live in a townhouse with small bedrooms. Anything larger would take the whole room.

My 6'1" DD has a twin daybed. She has a small bedroom. I slept on a twin as well.

Full for our 6 foot son at home, since he was 10. Also in a full in off campus housing the last 2 years in college

17 year old high schooler, just under 6 feet tall, has a full size bed.
19 year old college student, around 5'10", has a full size bed at our house but in his dorm room has a twin XL.

Full for my 15 year old DD and queen for 13 year old DS. He had a full too but he switched rooms with the guest room and we couldn’t move the beds around.

One in a twin and two kids in fulls. They'll be in Twin XL for most dorms (which is the equivalent to 1/2 of a king size bed) so that's sufficient for most people.
