We will be getting our new SleepEZ latex mattress later this week.  WE are going shopping for new sheets and blankets today.  Will standard sheets fit this bed??  Thanks!

The pockets on older, standard fitted sheets are only about 8" deep, so I doubt it. Of course the flat sheets will still fit. What I did was keep most of my flat sheets, then buy new fitted sheets - mixing and matching colours -  to make a set.

So you think the standard sheets would be too SMALL?  I was thinking they'd be too big.  What size fitted sheet did you get for a 10"?  The deep pockets usually fit between 15 and 18", I think.

I think it's better to get deeper pocket fitted sheets than you need. You might want to add another layer of latex to your bed down the road and that way you won't need to buy all new bedding again. I would personally get the 15" pockets.
