Eurostandard bed linen: features and sizes
Nowadays, the range of bed linen is so wide that you can easily “get lost” in it. Today, European standard product kits are especially popular and in demand. Such models are famous for convenience and optimal dimensional parameters, which made them so popular. Today we will get acquainted with such bedding and find out what its features are.
What is euroset?
Surely everyone at least once in my life heard this combination - eurocomplete bedding. Many have heard about him, but not everyone knows what he is.Some mistakenly believe that the word "euro" means the quality indicator of a product, but in this case it has a different meaning. With regards to bedding, the euro symbol indicates specific dimensional parameters of the products, as well as their performance characteristics.
It should be noted that the Euro set of bed linen is notable for its increased dimensions. Such products are very different from the standard sets of its length and width.
Differences from other standards
Lingerie, made in accordance with the European standard, is very different from other varieties of similar products. For example, the main difference between Euro-bed and standard double sets is in the dimensional parameters of the bed sheet and duvet cover included in the set. In European versions, these things are longer and wider.
There is a difference in the number of pillowcases that are included in the bed set. So, there may be more than two of them in the “Euro” standard configuration, and these parts can be made in different colors, and their sizes can vary.In standard double sets, there are usually only two identical pillowcases with the same parameters. When there are 4 pillowcases in the headset at once, one pair of them has a simple square shape, equal dimensional values and color (the color corresponds to the color of the sheets from the set), and the other pair is represented by rectangular pillowcases that have more elegant and elite design (these details are usually repeat the design of the duvet cover).
Eurobearing can also be compared with today's popular family kits. The latter are usually supplied with two single-and-a-half duvet covers, but there is always only one bed sheet. Its minimum size in the family set is not less than 220x240 cm. According to users and experts, family sets can be used as a good alternative to Eurobel, since they also have impressive dimensions.
Kit Contents
Do not rush to go to the store for buying bedding, until you find out what is included in its kit. Products of the European standard are insanely popular today and are chosen by many consumers. They differ in quite good sets. For example, as part of the standard eurocomplete there are such components:
- duvet cover;
- a sheet that is the same size as the duvet cover;
- different number of pillowcases (from 2 to 4 pieces).
Kinds
Eurostandard bedding are different. Various modifications have their own distinctive characteristics. Let's get acquainted with them.
Standard and mini
The dimensions of the bed linen class "euro" are usually determined by the dimensions of the duvet cover. So, products from the “standard” category are designed for blankets, the dimensional parameters of which (in accordance with the dimension table) are 195x215 cm (optimal copy), 200x200, 200x220 cm. As for the parameters of the sheets, they can be different. It will be possible to choose a suitable variant practically for any bed, up to rare models with dimensions of 200x220 cm.
Kits, in which the parameter of the width of these parts is more modest (no more than 220x230, 220x240 cm), belong to the Euro Mini category. In this case, the name speaks for itself - such products are slightly less than the standard options.
Maxi
Eurobelie from this category is an enlarged variety of standard options. In many cases, instead of the “maxi” mark, the number “2” is put on the packages with laundry.In our country, such copies do not produce, and on the shelves they can be found extremely rare. As a rule, such products are made by manufacturers from Turkey, China and Europe. Perhaps the lack of such products in Russian stores is due to their low popularity and demand, because the beds of appropriate sizes in our stores are almost never found.
