Hey there!

I recently moved from Germany to Malta and now been searching for days to find a new bed.
The problem is that i am 2.02m tall and most beds are only 1.90m or 2.00m long.

I already was in the most known shops like TheAtrium and others, but no luck there.

Anyone tall out there who has a suggestion for me?

Buying from IKEA Sicily with Maltashopper etc. seems no option, as IKEA doesn't have those large size beds.

Best regards,
Markus

Probably not very popular here as Maaltese do not tend to be very tall!

It's a drag. And once you have a big bed you won't find bedding.

There are people who custom make any shape or size of bed and mattress you like. If you don't mind the expense and annoyance bedding wise I can find you the details from a very tall friend of mine who had same issues.

Hi,
I know this is of no help but on a lighter note you could try the Procrustes method.

Hi

You could try Royalty Bedding. (www.royaltybedding.com) We bought our mattresses from them 3 years ago. They sell a wide range which are comfortable, of good quality and reasonably priced.

They manufacture them on the island so you could ask if there is a possibility of making an extra long mattress. They sell bases too, but we have no experience of those.

Good luck
