Question
Is this the same size as a normal twin mattress.

Answer
A standard twin mattress is 39 x 75, an XL twin is 39 x 80.  This mattress is only 36 x 84 which would not fit a standard twin bed.  This is however, made for use only with hospital beds and if used with any other type of surface, will void the warranty.
